I frequently ask my husband, "Why do Republicans hate our country so much?"

Their actions hurt our country. Each time they take money away from education and infrastructure, damn government as ineffective, attack the public workers who make our communities strong, and trash anyone who is not a millionaire they are hurting our country's future.

Each movement of obstruction hurts our nation going forward, and they just don't care.
