For the record, I "get" the frustration with the GOP saying it will reform and never doing so...I lived the Reagan years and before that just as you did. So my frustration is no less, but having 3 daughters...I'm not willing to run to the mountains and let the nation go to hell...nor am I willing to turn conservative against conservative. It seems, you are.
No, I don't think you "get" what has happened. We are not witnessing an internal struggle within the GOP --- I wish we were
@Mesaclone The GOP is united in its "let's move along" goal. Sure, some are talking a good game, but that's only to get Georgians to overlook how screwed they have been by their own Party and keep McConnell in front of a microphone.
The Party has already kicked its own voters to the curb. What, in the name of God, makes you think they're going to stand up for us now? They've announced they will not consider the legal option of challenging fraudulently chosen electors, they've jettisoned removing Section 230 to protect the censorship rights of their Big Tech donors, by a unanimous vote they've increased Visas while American workers are unemployed by the millions.
You know they're going to surrender on everything from immigration to taxes to defunding the police; from American history to reparations. Gun control? Watch them prove the President right when he said over and over again "I'm the only thing standing between you and the end of your 2A rights". A Biden investigation? Nah. Durham indictments? Nah. Oppose even one Biden nominee for one position? Nah. Stop the lockdowns? Nah. Push for Trump's economic recovery? Nah. Bow to China? Sure. Return us to the Paris Agreement? Sure. The Iran deal? Sure. Keep us in Afghanistan for another 20 years? Sure. Blow up peace in the Middle East? Of course.
The Republicans in the Senate will return to their gangs of 6 or 8 or 12 for every issue. They'll get rich on Chinese and Big Tech money. They'll watch us die a slow death and lament how bad it all is as they jockey for position to win the Republican nomination for President because they're better than Biden.
Why can't you see this Republican Party will join in destroying the American dream, the American legacy and an American future? The Republican Party is as self-centered and power hungry as the democrats, and neither do they care a whit about their voters.
Kill it. Now.
