Republicans Burn the Republican Party Down to the Ground

[CornusKousa]

45 wanted to take your penis extenders without due process yet Biden is authoritarian?

Learn your words and know your role, Poor lil Dumb-Dumb.

No, he didn't.

You've had that lie repeatedly refuted.

You're wrong, CNN lied to you and you're too dumb to realize it.....time to get over it.

Speaking of "words" has JarJar trotted out his favorite catch-phrases today? One point each for "anti-American" ,"commie", "woke" and "cancel".

I'm sure he has. I have noticed that he has backed down from the "Neo-Maoist" nonsense after being constantly belittled for using an irrelevant made up word.

And would I be any less right today than I was the other days comrades??

 

[LukSkyFokker]

Again, 45's own words said he wanted that, Poor lil Dumb-Dumb. But then, you and 45 HATE when your owns words are used to tear you down.

Again, no they didn't, you need to learn how to read poor illiterate Luk.

Shit you make up or dishonestly exclude/take out of context....doesn't qualify as mine or Trumps words.

You just have to lie because you have nothing else.

 

[LukSkyFokker]

No, Poor lil Dumb-Dumb. 45's team was so eager to back off his anti-American stance that they tried to attribute it to the VP.

Former Congressman Joe Walsh ripped into former colleagues speaking at Conservative Political Action Conference in Florida, noting that the the Republican Party of today is not the Republican Party he once belonged to.

Walsh repeatedly said the GOP is now "Trump's party" before singling out Republican Congressman Paul Gosar who spoke to a white nationalist gathering late Friday night.

"You mentioned, earlier in your show, a guy I served with in Congress, Paul Gosar," Walsh stated. "He missed that Covid-relief bill vote last night because he keynoted a white-nationalist event. Gosar ought to be censured, he ought to be removed from his committees. The Republican Party should, unequivocally, condemn white supremacy, but they won't because this is Donald Trump's party."

The first major comprehensive study of those arrested for participation in the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol strongly indicates that the true motivation of these rioters was not some quasi-patriotic reaction to Donald Trump’s fanciful assertions of election fraud. Rather, the root cause underlying that day of violence boils down to out-and-out racism by insecure whites, alarmed about the prevalence of darker-skinned Americans in their hometown environments.

In other words, this was certainly an attempt to overthrow a legitimate, democratic election. But it was an opportunistic insurrection, borne out of deep-seated resentments having nothing to with democracy but rather with preserving and maintaining white power in this country.

Interviewed for the Times article, Pape warns that none of this violence and white resentment is going away. These people will be back, perhaps summoned by someone other than Trump, but their fears and insecurities will continue to be stoked as the country assimilates more and more people whose skin color differs in shade from their own: “[W]e have to realize that it’s not going to be solved—or solved alone—by law enforcement agencies … This is political violence, not just ordinary criminal violence, and it is going to require both additional information and a strategic approach.”

Perhaps a good start to that “strategic approach” would be educating the American people what Jan. 6 was really all about.

Luk lives in a world of memes to avoid the facts.

You're going to be triggered by 45 for years. Poor lil commie comrade.

 

[LukSkyFokker]

It's literally a fact that the meme is true. 45 tried to take your lil pew-pews without due process and the 45 team tried to attribute that anti-American stance to harris.

No, he literally didn't.

You've been proven wrong on this issue several times.

The meme is also a lie.

I can see why you're so attracted to it.

 

[LukSkyFokker]

I didn't say he literally did.

Show me where I was proven wrong and I'll reply with video evidence.

 

[CornusKousa]

I didn't say he literally did.

I never said you did.

Learn to read boy.

Show me where I was proven wrong and I'll reply with video evidence.

Several threads over the years and you're still pretending you haven't taken that quote out of context

Lie to yourself all you want Luk.

 

[LukSkyFokker]

I never said you said I did, learn to read, dipshit.

Who ya gonna believe - you - the proven liar - or a video of 45 saying those things?

 

[CornusKousa]

I never said you said I did,

You directly did so by responding the way you did.

Unless you're just making up random responses after quoting me???

Right....pathetic Luk, even for you.

Who ya gonna believe - you - the proven liar - or a video of 45 saying those things?

Play the long video so it's all in context.

Bet your dishonest ass WONT EVER DO IT.

Because liars gotta lie.

Post video of Trump supporting red flag laws in response to Pence bringing them up and citing California as an example and obliterating Luk's claim that "45 tried to take your lil pew-pews without due process".

Trump, more "progressive" and left than I would like.

You should have stuck with the short clip pulled out of context so morons like you could be convinced of leftist lies like "45 tried to take your lil pew-pews without due process".

Anyhow, thanks for proving me right yet again Luk....I love getting you prove yourself wrong.

Pub-Ed, thanks for proving once again that no matter how wrong you are, you'll never admit to it, you'll deny and deflect.

No deflections of goalpost moving.

Your video clip literally proved me right.

Trump supported red flag laws and at no point "tried to take your lil pew-pews without due process" as you claimed.

You bought into fake news....and now you look like an idiot, that's the price of chugging fake news Kool-Aid son.

Better luck next time

So, the most recent message to come out of the Republican Party is, "We hate old people! Fuck those geezers!"

As political messages go, this is not brilliant. This isn't the sort of political messaging that will help them win votes.

Trump-created chaos has GOP strategists baffled over how to win back the House

According to a report from CNN, former president Donald Trump's chaotic four years in office created problems for GOP strategists looking for a pathway back to retaking the House as voters fled the Republican Party in his wake.


At issue is the redrawing of districts that contain GOP majority voters that can be counted on for years and elections to come.

"The political upheaval caused by the rise of former President Donald Trump has forced party operatives and elected officials tasked with laying out the nation's congressional districts for the next decade to determine whether those shifts were aberrations or signs of more lasting changes," CNN Dan Merica reported before adding, "Trump's tenure saw dramatic shifts for both parties. Appalled by the then-President's caustic politics, voters in suburbs across America fled the Republican Party, backing Democrats in the 2018 midterms and Joe Biden two years later. Democrats also saw gains with more highly educated Americans."

Several Southern Republican members of the House of Representatives have proposed a Klu Klux Kaucus that will adhere to "Anglo-Saxon" values and vigorously resist allowing any more people of color into America under any circumstances. They're officially calling it the "America First Caucus."

The original America First movement started in the autumn of 1940, with open support for Adolf Hitler, loudly promoting their fear that white people in America were subject to being "replaced" by people of color into the fabric of our country. Those engineering this Great Replacement, America Firsters believed, were wealthy, media-connected Jews.

It also openly opposed America doing anything to stop Adolf Hitler after his 1939 invasion of Poland, and was particularly against our engaging in any kind of military action against Germany's leader.
The movement's leader, Charles Lindbergh, addressed the "Jews will not replace us" issue in one of his most famous America First speeches when he said of Jewish Americans, "Their greatest danger to this country lies in their large ownership and influence in our motion pictures, our press, our radio and our government."

Small wonder that Georgia's Marjorie Taylor Greene and Arizona's Paul Gosar, apologists for the traitors who attacked our republic on January 6th and fellow travelers with uber-racist Donald Trump, are the founding members of this new Kaucus.
In their introductory documentation, they argue that they're only interested in promoting or voting for infrastructure that "befits the progeny of European architecture." It doesn't take a dog to figure out what that whistle means.

In fact, they are quite proud of the racism. According to a document obtained by Punchbowl News, the Kaucus' main aim is to "follow in President Trump's footsteps, and potentially step on some toes and sacrifice sacred cows for the good of the American nation."

Murkowski bucks her party to back Biden's pick for DOJ No. 3

https://www.politico.com/news/2021/04/21/murkowski-vanita-gupta-doj-484040

Sen. Lisa Murkowski voted Wednesday to confirm Vanita Gupta to the No. 3 position at the Justice Department, blowing up her party’s effort to make Democrats solely own the confirmation.

Senate Republicans have spent weeks speaking out against Gupta, describing her as a “radical” who would defund the police. They’ve also criticized her past statements on decriminalizing drugs and heavily signaled that their entire 50-member conference would stay unified against her. Vice President Kamala Harris arrived in the Senate on Wednesday ahead of a preliminary vote on Gupta, indicating widespread expectations that the nomination would require the first tie-breaking vote of the Biden administration.

But Murkowski, who voted to convict Donald Trump in the former president's second impeachment trial, had other plans. During floor remarks ahead of a final vote, the senator said that after meeting with Gupta, she was impressed by “the passion that [the nominee] carries with her with the work that she performs” and said Gupta is “deeply committed to matters of justice.”

Among the issues Murkowski discussed with Gupta was domestic violence and sexual assault, particularly against Native women — a major priority for the Alaska Republican.

Republicans are going all-in on Donald Trump heading into the 2022, even though the former president remains unpopular in the polls.


"Locked out of Facebook, marooned in Mar-a-Lago and mocked for an amateurish new website, Donald J. Trump remained largely out of public sight this week. Yet the Republican Party's capitulation to the former president became clearer than ever, as did the damage to American politics he has caused with his lie that the election was stolen from him," Lisa Lerer reported for The New York Times on Saturday.

"In Washington, Republicans moved to strip Representative Liz Cheney of her House leadership position, a punishment for denouncing Mr. Trump's false claims of voter fraud as a threat to democracy. Lawmakers in Florida and Texas advanced sweeping new measures that would curtail voting, echoing the fictional narrative from Mr. Trump and his allies that the electoral system was rigged against him. And in Arizona, the state Republican Party started a bizarre re-examination of the November election results that involved searching for traces of bamboo in last year's ballots," she explained. "The churning dramas cast into sharp relief the extent to which the nation, six months after the election, is still struggling with the consequences of an assault by a losing presidential candidate on a bedrock principle of American democracy: that the nation's elections are legitimate."


"They also provided stark evidence that the former president has not only managed to squelch any dissent within his party but has persuaded most of the G.O.P. to make a gigantic bet: that the surest way to regain power is to embrace his pugilistic style, racial divisiveness and beyond-the-pale conspiracy theories rather than to court the suburban swing voters who cost the party the White House and who might be looking for substantive policies on the pandemic, the economy and other issues," she wrote. "The loyalty to the former president persists despite his role in inciting his supporters ahead of the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol, with his adherents either ignoring, redefining or in some cases tacitly accepting the deadly attack on Congress."

What a banal, two dimensional view of Republicans you (and the NYT) have. NYT has long sold out its journalistic integrity to join the "woke" crowd- e.g. the 1619 project is simply a caricature of American history- from such work one would never know that such liberty as exists in the world today is due in large part to the ideas so ably enunciated and effected by such awful Dead White Males as Thomas Jefferson and George Washington. Your approach is the equivalent of regarding the entire Democrat party as being sympatico with AOC (you know, the honors economics major from BU who weighed in on the merits of that great economist, Milton Keynes).

Many Republicans, myself included, personally disdain Donald Trump, although I would claim many of his policies were just what America and the world need. Admittedly, he had neither the background nor the temperment to be an effective POTUS.


Such banality as you, and the NYT, possess, along with the latter's outright deceptiveness, do not augur well for the future of representative democracy, the surfeit of which is quite capable of destroying government of the people, for the people, and by the people.

Republicans elected a racist traitor who was heard on tape admitting to sexually assaulting women, and turned out in droves to re-elect a racist traitor, and admitted sexual predator.

It isn't about the traitor anymore. It's about the deplorables who would vote for an un-American animal.......TWICE.

Now those same people are tripling down on a racist, traitorous sexual predator, and purging anyone from the GOP who doesn't support the big lie/liar.

I welcome any republicans who still have a shred of dignity, to join the moderates in the Democratic Party to help shepherd the country forward in a more socially and economically just manner, and act as a check on some of the more extreme elements of the far left and the far right. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be many of them left.

The Republicans have given up on being a functioning political party. They no longer have any policy wonks, diplomats, negotiators, intellectuals or other people with leadership skills.

For the past twelve years or so, we've watched as the Republicans have obstructed the Democrats as the Democrats have attempted to maintain a functioning democracy in this country. The Republicans have obstructed, they've bullied, they've incited violence, thrown temper tantrums, openly embraced racism and promoted fascism and white supremacy, but that's not the same thing as governing, now is it?


They put on some melodramatic public displays to make it SEEM as if they still know how to govern, but it's all just theatre. If they had any interest in crafting national policy or governing, why is it that they were never able to come up with an alternative to the Affordable Care Act? They've spent years posturing and screaming that they would come up with something MUCH BETTER to replace it, but they've never come up with a single piece of legislation to show that they were serious.

They've also never come up with a single piece of legislation to create jobs. Although Trump's disastrous trade war with China certainly KILLED a lot of jobs in this country!

And while the Republicans have certainly engaged in a lot of harassment, obstruction, name-calling and bullying in the past 12 years, can they point to a single thing that they've done to help America's schools, farms, working class, senior citizens or veterans?

NO! They cannot!

Republicans have forgotten how to govern. All they seem to know how to do now is sabotage the people are doing all the work!

Amid the conversation of the downfall of the Republican Party, former Breitbart staffer Kurt Bardella explained that the GOP, as an organization, is just as complicit.


Speaking to MSNBC on Sunday about the ousting of Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) and Republicans attempting to rewrite the history of Jan. 6, Bardella predicted that it is only going to get worse as the party goes all-in on the "big lie."

He noted that through the 2000s, the Republicans were all about fighting terrorism, patriotism, war and protecting America from those abroad. Now it has taken a 180-degree turn toward promoting terrorism.

"In reality, the threat that we are facing right now at home in our own backyard from one of the two major political parties in this country has put democracy on its edge," he explained. "We are teetering very, very close right now. I don't think people realize what's happening. But what we have seen now is a Republican Party that, even on the day of the insurrection that night, went back into the chambers of Congress and voted against approving a free and fair election. This is a three-part play that we're seeing right now. Act one was the November election.


"Act two is the 2022 midterms," he continued. "And if Republicans somehow get control of one of two chambers of Congress, I guarantee you in 2024, if they don't like the results of the election, they will not certify them and they will create a Constitutional crisis, the likes of which we have never seen — putting democracy on edge and under threat in a way that it never was during the attacks of al Qaeda, during everything that we experienced in the 2000s. All of the alarmist rhetoric we heard from Republicans about terror and war and terrorism, well, guess what? The threat we are seeing right now from the Republican party is far bigger than any of that."

He went on to explain that after watching Republicans pretend like Jan. 6 was "patriots" or "tourists," is really only the beginning of the next steps of the GOP plan.

"What you're going to see is when you have one of the two political parties make excuses, apologize, rewrite history for the violent insurrection effort on January 6th, you're going to see more of that," said Bardella. "When the Republican Party sits up in a congressional hearing like they did this week and say, 'Oh, it was just like any kind of tourist day,' you're telling these people to keep doing it, to do it more, to get more violent because the Republican Party will run cover for you. They are the getaway driver for these democratic arsonists."
