Joe Biden is the President…
Life moved on from Trump who LOST?….
You’d never know it….
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) told Fox News that the Republican Party can’t grow without embracing former President Donald Trump.
Said Graham: “Can we move forward without President Trump? The answer is no.”
He added: “I’ve always liked Liz Cheney, but she’s made a determination that the Republican Party can’t grow with President Trump. I’ve determined we can’t grow without him.”
Axios: “Republican officials are rendering an unequivocal verdict: They want to cement former President Trump’s politics and policies into the foundation of the GOP for many years to come.”
…
New York Times: “One candidate brands himself a ‘conservative outlaw.’ Another boasts of her bipartisan censure by the State Senate for calling the Capitol rioters ‘patriots.’ A third, asked about Dominion voting machines — the subject of egregious conspiracy theories on the right — called them ‘the most important issue’ of the campaign.”
“These are not fringe candidates for the Republican nomination for Virginia governor.”
“They are three of the leading contenders in a race that in many ways embodies the decade-long meltdown of Republican power in Virginia, a once-purple state that has gyrated more decisively toward Democrats than perhaps any in the country.”
….
Geoffrey Skelley: “President Biden took office more than three months ago, but Republicans are not any closer to accepting his victory now than they were then.”
“The latest CNN/SSRS survey, released on April 30, found that 70 percent of Republicans believed the false allegation that Biden did not legitimately defeat former President Trump; just 23 percent said Biden legitimately won. Meanwhile, Democrats (97-3 percent) and independents (69-27 percent) said Biden had won fairly. These numbers are very similar to what CNN/SSRS found in mid-January, just before Biden’s inauguration.”
“And this lack of movement is really the story.”
Just as I’ve written here earlier, any patriotic, libertarian or democratic concerns must now give way to the unity (on any terms) of whatever coalition can lower taxes, preserve tax privileges, impede wage growth at the bottom, throttle the regulation of business, push the courts as far right as possible, cripple public enterprise or misdirect government activity to benefit private interests and above all preserve the existing class structure (including its ethnic hierarchy).
If this requires unity with bigotry and embryonic fascism, so be it. (See European history between the World Wars.)
In short say I (pushed from my normal conciliationist social-democracy to the extremes of my own Marxist leanings), Class Tells.
Matt Gaetz and Margorie Greene have now begun their America First tour. I wonder if this talented duo will be coming to a town near me?
Have the police been warned ?
Is their surplus military equipment ready?
Am I the threat you are concerned about?
No, Z, I doubt that you would be the one stirring up dangerous passions and reactions. Perhaps the authorities could block your airports, bus stations and roads against those two dangerous outside agitators from Washington, Dee Cee.
You’re quite wrong as usual.
Republicans havent “moved on” at all.
Trump never lost in the view of about three quarters of that party.Thats millions and millions of people.
You often act as if this is some aberration.Its not.Its who and what the Republican Party is today.
The sooner you realize that?Perhaps you can”move on” from your fallacious ideas that Trump is “fading away” and the “alternative universe” rigamarole.
The things you listed above?Thats no “alternative universe.”Thats the Republican Party in 2021 and quite likely for many years to come.
More Republicans are dropping into the Big Guys alternate universe…
NOT ALL…
Those who see the truth are ostracised …
As I said a few days ago?
Maybe the should be seen as a good thing for Democrats since Trump’s long term track record sucks and he’s gonna be getting the legal ‘hook’ sooner or later…
The thing with Trump is?….It has NOT future part to it...
Ask the suckers who rode for him a few years ago who are indicted or thrown aside…
And?
The guy IS about trying to make more money from others so he can use THEIR MONEY to pay his almost a Billion dollars of debt due in the next few years to the government he attacks and financial people…
A poll out today tells us that 70% of Republican voters think Biden did not win the election fairly.
No Trump is not going away and yes Republicans are now simply a large group of uneducated morons.
