Chip Roy criticizes McCarthy and McConnell, urges GOP to take page out of DeSantis playbook
by Virginia Aabram, Congressional Reporter
November 11, 2022 06:00 AM
Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) took shots at Republican leadership in Congress on Friday and urged the party to model itself after Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis's "unapologetic" approach to governance.
Roy, in an op-ed for the Washington Examiner, faulted House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) for the "unforced errors" he says led to a tepid showing in the midterm elections. While Republicans are projected to secure enough seats for a majority in the House, an expected "red wave" did not materialize on Tuesday night.
"We have to fight for something," Roy wrote. "Doing so requires a willingness to take on real political risk to fight for the American people. It requires taking the kind of political risk Gov. Ron DeSantis has unapologetically taken in Florida — a key to why he crushed his Democratic competition."

Your Darling @Texas Robin

The GOP needs to stop worrying about offending the left and start giving the right something to vote for...

Paging Mr. Chao!
Leadership is not a title. It's an action

"A nation can survive its fools and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and he carries his banners openly against the city. But the traitor moves among those within the gates freely, his sly whispers rustling through all alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears no traitor; he speaks in the accents familiar to his victim, and he wears their face and their garments and he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation; he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of a city; he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to be feared. The traitor is the plague."
