The GOP made this mess and yet ardent GOPers think this mess is better than any Democrat in office. Since the rise of the Tea Party, a GOP purge of principles has been ongoing. So has the electoral cheating; as of the exit of Dubya, the GOP have operated on the premise that the ONLY way they can win is to cheat and gerrymander. They already knew their goose was cooked but their followers are followers of faith, misplaced as that faith may be. And now Jeff Sessions claims The Bible (some flavor of King James Version is presumed) justifies cruelty committed by government because Romans 13 proclaims that God ordained governments for his own purposes, thus attributing his own purposes to be identical to that of God's...and basically admitting that the American Revolution was an act against God because it was a rebellion against a king put in place by God and whom thereby must be obeyed no matter what.
The excuse I keep hearing was "well, he was an evil King" or "he was a bad King", and so I submit that the same excuse can be applied to the government that Sessions is promoting.
