Politics needs to return to reality

The game Republicans continue to play in which participants must pretend that Trump did not lose the election is strange to the point it should embarrass anyone admitting to voting Republican. Taking positions on how the country should function should focus on core values and the representation of citizens and not these strange fantasies and conspiracies. The ignorance that follows from this mindless commitment to falsehood is damaging to the point people refuse to wear masks and be vaccinated in order to demonstrate their allegiance. I have little personal concern when it comes to whether Cheney continues in her leadership role, but I do wish Republicans could move past this charade.
