This is really an easy test as every question has the same answer, so you only need to be sure about one answer to correctly answer all the questions.

Which political party fabricates excuses to cut financial support to the middle-class and poor while protecting forty years of massive tax cuts and new tax evasion loopholes for their greedy individual and corporate benefactors and bosses?

Which party talks big on law and order for the crimes of the average citizen while justifying, defending, and praising the words and actions of Donald J. Trump and his personal army of far right-wing zealots?

Which party gives lip service to human dignity and individual rights, that is unless you are a person of color, a woman, LBGTQ, or poor?

Which party is using every underhanded trick it can conjure up to suppress voting in the inner cities while, at the same time, carrying out a plan to subvert the historical integrity of the voting process?

Which party is all for free speech by the likes of Marjorie Taylor Greene and her fellow psycho-babblers, but not much interested if the subject of free speech is gun control or human rights?

Which party has totally contorted the right of religious freedom to mean that its vote-supplying religion of choice has some Constitutional right to impose its beliefs on others who do not share those beliefs?

Which party in the 1980s espoused the concept that “if you tell a lie loud enough, often enough, and long enough, some people will begin to accept it as the truth.?”

Finally, from that time in 1980 until today, and likely tomorrow, which party has religiously adhered to that guidance by systematically lying to the American people about who they “really” represent, what they “actually” stand for, and how they will govern?

I can’t begin to imagine the fate of our Democracy if 50% of the population continues to fail this Test.
