The GOP Isn't in Turmoil, It's Growing the Hell Up

If they do, I might even become a republican again. I've been out for about 16 years.

Hey, it's the Insane Clown! How's that Hunter Biden thing working out for you? Funny, it's sorta looking like Rudy is WAY more likely to do jail time for pushing that Russian propaganda than Hunter...

I took the bait (#71) and read a portion where Joseph Biden, the duly elected President of the US is being called an unmitigated disaster, this after just a few months on the job.

So for some real statics: Under the previous administration of DJT who had to cheat to win, 400,000 deaths from Covid-19.

President Biden in less than four months, 154,000,000 people vaccinated.

Now who is the unmitigated disaster again?

DJT was called a moron by his own cabinet member, no such accolades will be forthcoming for President Biden.

Expecting an engaging discussion or rational, thought out, reasonable answer? What's the definition of insanity again?

If Republican leaders care about how history will judge them, they need to join Cheney in the determined fight to put truth and the health of our democracy above party and power. In the long arc of history, truth always wins over demagoguery.
The Repub leaders don't care about how history will judge them. They intend to be the ones writing it. The harder that one pushes and endorses a lie the harder it is to eventually admit that in fact you lied. The lust for party and power is all they have left.

True dat. Politicians are not worried about history. They're only worried about their next election.

What do you call a guy who was instrumental in losing the House in '18 and Senate '20 and most of all the WH which was his to lose. LOSER. This is who the Repugnants cower in front of while licking his boots. COWARDS.

Florida can't use the Constitution to shield Trump. DeSantis can still try.
