In one episode of the 70s era television sitcom, “Taxi,” the cabbies complained that the apples in the garage vending machine were bad. Alex Rieger suggested they buy the rotten apples so they would get fresh apples.

Over time, they kept buying the bad apples but never got good apples. A driver finally caught the man who stocked the vending machine and asked why they were still getting rotten apples.

The man replied that since they keep accepting rotten apples the vender would keep providing them.

That pretty sums up our relationship with the GOP.
