Maybe we liberal folks need to rethink sociopathy, the lack of conscience and the crude humor of the overgrown "callous and unemotional child." There are so many of these people now, and they are out-winning us. We could determine that there's best human nature (kindness, dignity, future-thought) and there's actual human nature -- spontaneity, frustration, id-thinking, pain and its projection. Maybe the Republicans are simply being the base and basic truth of humankind, our prepotent nature. Which would explain why they are legion. It would be more difficult, more fragile, to be decent. https://nyti.ms/3UoL520#permid=121334505

Comments are welcome, but I'd suggest you first read "Feeling-centered therapy" and "Ocean and boat" for a basic introduction to my kind of theory and therapy.
