Congratulations to the Republican voters of Iowa, who weathered really cold temperatures on Jan 15, 2023 to go out and elect the man with ninety one felony charges, two state indictments, two federal indictments, was twice impeached by the house, the man who is a rapist and an ethnofascist mysogynist, and the man who has openly admitted that he wants to be a dictator from Day 1 of his second term, to be your party’s nominee. Nothing shows the world what the Republican party is, more clearly, than your loud voice last night.

Congratulations to Vivek Ramascammy, who tried hard to put on a white face, ran on the most agro “anti-woke” campaign only to be clobbered in the primary as he reminds Republicans of 9/11 because of his brown skin, who tried to win Christian voters with his “10 Truths” lunacy only to see them backfire, and someone who “tried” to overcome the white supremacy of the Republican Party by doubling down on the fascism dope that more than 80% of Iowan Republicans are smoking, by insulting immigrants and anyone who suits his daily mood, and and got absolutely nothing to show for it.

One Iowa Republican voter on Ramaswamy: “I’m not being prejudiced, guys, but I don’t like his name. I don’t like where he came from. After 9/11, I still harbor a lot of hard feelings.”

“Well, the only one I have and I couldn’t even remember who said it to me, but they mentioned his dark skin and they think he’s Muslim,” a supporter named Theresa Fowler told Apoorva Ramascammy, Vivek’s wife, at a restaurant meet-and-greet.

“How long have you been in the United States, were you born here?” asked Wayne Kneeskern, an attendee from Fairfield, Iowa.

Congratulations to Nikki Haley, the other brown skinned fake white woman in the race, who still pretends slavery never existed in the country, who tried to overcome the sexism of the Republican Party by pretending it isn’t there, wasn’t there, and will never be there, and someone who tried to overcome the nativism of the Republican Party by actively participating in it by bringing receipts from her governorship tenure, and who got absolutely nothing to show for it.

Congratulations to Ron DeSantis, who, in the process of trying to feed the hunger of Republicans who seek and crave for dictatorial characters, sought to present a more stable version of a dictator but somehow ended up presenting an even more comically absurd caricature of a dictator with ease, providing buffoonish stories to be written forever in his memory, and someone who learned that Republican voters actually prefer dictators who have already tried to stage a coup against the U.S. and those who have already denigrated the constitution, and not just some governor who showed his bravado by banning books and got rolled over by Disney.

Congratulations to the American media, who constantly and obsessively wasted a full year and more, covering this farce of a caucus, the time they could have otherwise spent educating the public about the present danger of the Republican Party aka white supremacist Christo-fascist confederacy, instead of normalizing anti-democratic elements that are clear and present danger to the Republic, and pretending all of these people would somehow a return to some norm.

And finally, Congratulations to all the American voters who live in a privilege bubble and who love to do armchair political punditry by claiming to be intellectuals and issue-based centrists, who in their privilege given arrogance, continue to normalize the evil of the Republican party by equating them with the Democratic party and engage in bothsidesism talks, and by continuing to indulge in 10,000 feet political discussions on why they may still vote for a Republican candidate (not just for President) in 2024.
