DeSantisis trying to out-tRump tRump to worm his way into the WH. If the Mango Jesus gets preempted from running for Pres. again DeSantis will gladly step into his boots and pledge to do to, er, for the nation what he did for Florida.

Exclamation Our Democratic Republic Is At Risk

One party of our two party system is at war with our democracy.
McConnell the obstructionist
They want to deny the insurrection, they refuse to refute tRump's big lie,actively embracing it. They are actively working against the will of the majority of American voters (see link above). Embracing tRump's big lie they are acting to limit the numbers of voters participating in our elections. One of the worst Repub offenders even admitted that increases voter turnout would not fare well with Republican trying to get elected.
We are at war with these people and it's time we started acting like it.

They're rushing blindly to that bridge.

Speaking about Liz Cheney:

Quote:
“She just believes he’s disqualified himself by his conduct, more than it’s any kind of political analysis,” said Sen. Lindsey O. Graham (R-S.C.). “If you look at a political analysis, there’s no way this party is going to stay together without President Trump and his supporters. There is no construct where the party can be successful without him.”
Party first, the age old Republican mantra. And I get irritated when these people are referred to as conservative in the news. WTF is conservative about them other than tax cuts with borrowed money and packing the courts?
