They are clinging to the Trump-turd to make gains in the 2022 house races. Then they will abandon Trump bigly for the 2024 cycle. They know he is toxic and will lose again.
The gas shortage due to Russians hacking is suspicious- who do we know with ties to the Russian mob and who will benefit politically from such a crisis?
What I'm reading is this move is alienating suburban voters, who they need to retake the House.
73, the vote went down, and Cheney was removed from leadership, but I don't think a caucus can oust someone from her seat; I believe that would require a vote from the entire House.
Aha, thx. I've been wrapping up a year long renovation on my house and havent been following closely as we move back in. Been too busy having fun dialing in the new 2.1/5.1 setup. Its a hell of a step up from 20 years of soundbars. Im gonna start getting picky about cables and power now, I can see it already :-)
I have serious doubts that this and/or clinging to Dumpster Don with 2022/2024 hopes will work...as the GOP continues to fracture and alienate the very voters they are hoping to convince to vote (R). tRump lost in a 2020 landslide and he is only getting less popular and more of a liability moving forward with increasing legal woes, etc. Good Times. I am enjoying this continued implosion of a failing party.
Fuck that. "We" have not fallen far at all.....unless you count yourself as part of that ongoing shitshow of reality deniers and outright liars.
GOP should have jumped on the chance to convict and dump Chump when they had the perfect opportunity and appropriate cover in the tRump Capitol Riot/Insurgence. Now the party is stuck trying to kiss ass to a minority group of stakeholders whom should be left with nothing but have been empowered by that in and of itself. 'Doh!
Truth is that the GOP is in a real jam. Old school Republicans have no home in the party and want no part of this rat hole endeavor while a split party won't win any elections either. Hard to stay clean when rolling around with pigs.
Today could be the beginning of the end of the GOP as we know it.
The GOP hasn't stood for anything since Reagan. They've been coasting on culture wars while grabbing power and money for years and when Trump came simply became a criminal party. I hope this is the end we know and knew it LOL but I'm afraid that we underestimate racism in this country.
From the blog of Boston College history prof Heather Cox Richardson:
"On Thursday, over 100 former Republican leaders will drop a letter saying that if party leadership does not separate itself from former president Trump, they will start a third party. They are calling themselves the “rationals” against the “radicals,” and they include former governors and representatives, as well as Republican officeholders.
This revolt against the Trump loyalists in the Republican Party signals that, no matter what leadership is saying, many Republicans—including Republican lawmakers—are not, in fact, united behind the former president. After all, he never broke 50% approval when he was president, and he lost the White House and Congress for the party. And, now that he is locked out of Twitter and Facebook, it appears he can no longer command the audience he used to. In the week since he launched a new blog, it has attracted a little over 212,000 likes, shares, and comments. The top post got just 16,000 engagements.
Meanwhile, 63% of Americans approve of the job President Joe Biden is doing."
This entire charade is a Hail Mary kick by McCarthy in his feverish quest to (hopefully NOT) become Speaker of the House following the 2022 midterm elections.
FAIL. Embracing a loser is a winning strategy for this idiot?
I read a couple months back that he was willing to bet his personal house that the GOP will take the majority in the U.S. House and that he'll become Speaker. I hope someone took him up on that so he can very quickly come up with some great solutions for "the homeless crisis in CA".
