>they keep voting for lunatics through the primaries and then into office
This is the core of the problem.
This is why I get so irritated when the only response people have to Jan 6th is "But, BLM looting!"
They never own up to what voting for Donald Trump lead to. Instead they make the false assertion that Democrats support violent protests.
I stand by my assertion that the average Republican doesn't like this. The problem is they keep voting Republican even when party has been taken over by lunatics.
To be fair, the party was already a terrible choice to begin with. There's a reason why Trump was appealing to Republican voters.

To repeat a phrase, it's a distinction without a difference. It doesn't matter if they're actually terrible people themselves, or just supporting terrible people while they do terrible things to the rest of us.

If they keep voting for the inmates to run the asylum, they support it. Full stop. Tacit approval is approval nonetheless.
You can't vote for insanity, then just wring your hands afterwards and claim, "But I HAAAD to do it! The other option was a Democrat!"
