Lol. Girl read a history book. I’m not even American and can tell you that the Republicans were never the party of fiscal responsibility and security. Stop listening to that cunt Bill Maher. Imagine being so moronic that you think that Maher is right.
I always see it as giving people who call themselves Republicans an 'out'. Like saying "I get why you're voting that way, but it just isn't true anymore" but we all know it never was and they're morons, but if you just call them a moron, they double down
Security maybe but never fiscal responsibility. And security only because of the ridiculous amount of money they spend towards the military at the expense of our social services.
Most of the wars started abroad by Republicans were never about security but merely to expand US imperialism. Not to mention shit like the Iran-Contra affair and the shit the CIA have done. Those things have put Americans at more risk.
