Theory #1: Never Trumpers Are Natives of the TRAPPIST-1 Star System...

...which is a little less than 40 light years from us and sports seven planets that we know of.  

This theory would fit the facts if we postulate that one of those planets is an exact duplicate of Earth right down to Dippity-Doo and Tickle Me Elmo.    This would mean that television and radio transmissions from them would take nearly 40 years to reach us, which might explain the Never Trumpers imperishable pseudo-religious reverence for Saint Ronald Reagan.  And why only a few of the more perceptive among them are only now beginning to suspect that something might be going wrong inside the Republican Party.  And why they sound so ridiculous and false as they stumble around for an answer to the question of why they never noticed that the Left was right about the Right all along.

That's one theory.

The other theory is that they're just Earthbound misfits like the rest of us and they have spent their entire adult lives in either a state of such aggressive self-delusion that they really never noticed that anything was wrong until now...or they've spent their entire adult lives lying their asses off because the rewards for working as a mercenary for Team Evil were so lucrative.

So, are they newly arrived aliens from a solar system so far away they legitimately have no idea what has transpired over the past 40 years.

Or are they pathologically deluded?

Or are pathological liars?

Because I'll be damned if I can think of one other theory to fit the facts.

And if they are any of those things, why would anyone in their right mind trust them?

The aliens thing would go a long way to explaining how supposed "gig workers" are able to buy half-million dollar houses in gated subdivisions... also the need for 2 Trillion dollar federal budgets...
But the sad truth is, they are home-grown miscreants. Hothouse nurtured on a steady diet of wingnut steroids, rewritten history and alternative facts. So long as there's a dirty fucking hippie to point at to misdirect them, these sideshow barkers will sit content, happy in their own offal.

may I suggest not ruling out the possibility that It is not outer space from which they come.

Consider how Ebola or Covid rose to prominence/

Is it too hard to fathom that Bats hanging from the ceiling of the GOP pig stu. kept crapping down on the living quarters and in the food. Once in the food. Once it gets into the intestines of the pigs that think from their GUT. Well, it is possible this is a never seen bacteria originated right here on Earth.

It is just a theory and I await peer review.

Another theory has it with the polar ice melting. A parasite that was frozen for hungreds of thousands of years has been released from it's ice prison. As a parasite, it must have a host to live and it finds the brain of certain people attaches to their brain stem and takes full mental control of that person. It could be these people are most vulnerable genetically to the parasite. Once the parasite gets control of the body and mind. They form together in groups, Just like the GOP..

Here's an idea:

https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/what-if-a-pill-can-change-your-politics-or-religious-beliefs

...that a pill (of toadstool powder), one dose, can make you a hippie.

Today's hippie haters were the undeveloped offcast progeny of proles when '60s Woodstockshire ways and means of love enlivened consciousness-raising. And they didn't take their psychedelic dose; casualties in then-War on Drugs. Heart flesh since then knows the hippies were and are still right.

Prescribe pills for people.

many Turkeys that did not get a pardon this Thanksgiving are all taking the safe measures of quarantining for 14 days trough the Thanksgiving Holiday. Releasing a statement that they tested positive for COVID 19 and are now abiding by all CDC measures.

So they won't be making it this year for thanksgiving.
