The problem is not just racism. It is that the GOP is now a party of convivence for deplorables.

Racist? Welcome aboard.

Crazy anti-vaxxer? Step right up.

Qanon believer? The door is always open.

So when one of the inner circle makes a mistake, they are all banded together. Donate to the person's go fund me. Counter protest. Support on social media.

Having the right skin color may help but it is more of a marriage of convenience. Have money, guns or time? Jump right in. There is always room for one more.

It is not the racist doctor with black friends that worries me. It is the other doctors that are willing to excuse the bad behavior of their own party. That includes the demon sperm doctor.
