OTV: Why Are Local R’s Messed Up?

OrangeTV: I’ll never understand this Republican Super Hot Mess that seems to happen on a weekly basis here in K-Co. Do any of these people get any joy or fulfillment out of belonging to these groups or is it just constant and pointless soul sucking drama? I mean, seriously. Someone explain it all to me in a way I might understand. I’ve never heard of Democrat groups dealing with anything like the public BS that constantly seems to frizzle among these shady Repub groups.

Question: OTV has a good point. I’ve been in the news biz for 44 years — and I’ve never seen a local political party as messed up as the Kootenai County Republican Party. Not. Even. Close. Is there something in the water?
