Also its wearing a bit thin calling any Republican challenging Trump a Rhino. Its a losing approach.
Not true. Desantis and Pence aren't RINOs. Asa Hutchinson is a RINO. His "campaign" is theater, just a platform so that CNN will pay him to come on TV and tell you guys what they want to hear.
LOL!! DeSantimonials is as RINO as they come, fool. Trump is going to destroy that him as bogus. DeSantimon blows his soup cold and his hands warm in the same breath of air. RINO.

He's a George Bush/Ronald Reagan Republican. Yes, the party has changed from then. We should call the party
Ryan J. Reilly @ryanjreilly Feds seek 41 months for tow-truck driver James Robert Elliott (aka "Jim Bob"), who they write "seemed to view himself as the star of a war movie" on Jan. 6. “We *ing fought for him, we took the *ing Capitol for him, and then he *king concedes to Biden!” he said of Trump.

GOP 1
and then the post-Trump
GOP 2.
Asa is a GOP 1er, from way back.
But if you WERE a GOP 1er, but you never found the balls that Lynne or Adam found, you still deserve to be called a GOP 2er. Because you've completely enabled GOP 2.

Reminds me of the dishonesty of Trumpers on this thread (and everywhere) who 100% pretend that they don't know with ZERO DOUBT that what happened was EXACTLY what Trump wanted to happen, and tried to facilitate happening. And that he stood in the WH LOVING the fact that it was happening.
And if their lives depended on telling the truth about it, 100% of them would admit the above in a heartbeat.
In the past it was l possible to disagree with Liberals and agree to disagree. We differed in our political leanings but respected the others' viewpoints. Now, Liberals have jumped the shark. They want parents to have no say in their kids schooling, they want to be having drag shows with small children wh have no idea even what a drag show is, they want gender reassingnment ( I am k not even sure what that is) they want to convert 4-year-old kids to become lesbians and gay, and they even want much more than this.
Liberals - what the heck happened? How did you become so nutso? You are total nutjobs now.
It's because they were raised to hate America and the Constitution. They are like indoctrinated sheep following each other off the cliff of liberal depths and depravity from which there is no return in the mortal coil.

Oh the very sad irony.
During the past year Sally has become much more unhinged. His posts have deteriorated. I'm concerned.

Just read an interesting idea. Since the day trump rode his golden escalator the press has not known how to report on him, pundits underestimate him, etc.
why? Because americans know *American* history. We know democracy and faith in institutions and peaceful transfers of power.
None of us has had to deal with trumpist authoritarianism, no american institutions have had to deal with it.
So we are trying to apply old standards of democracy to a movement that is anti-democracy and violent and interested in winning no matter following norms. The media doesn't know what to do with his lies and lawbreaking. Institutions don't know what to do with an openly criminal president who wants to suspend the Constitution.
It's a mismatch.
even now, m'aga texas is about to pass a law that lets a political appointee cancel election results in Houston. Millions of Democratic votes, poof, if one guy thinks that's the way to go. This is outside the american experience so we STILL don't know what to do.

It might be too late to figure it out.
You say you have faith in "institutions" but you want to do away with one of our most sacred "institutions" (the Constitution) SIMPLY because it has not favored you in past presidential elections. For you Libs - Politics trumps EVERYTHING - institutions and history be damned.

Hey sally do me a favor and look up how many times the Constitution has been amended. You’ll be amazed! Big number!
A career criminal who District Attorney George Gascon's office kept out of jail is accused of killing a Los Angeles father of two in April, police say.

Without looking I know at least 28 times. I would guess 32.
More peaceful patriotic 'conservative' protestors being convicted!

Weird!
WASHINGTON — A member of the pro-Donald Trump online forum "The Donald," who espoused violent rhetoric and advocated for overthrowing the government, was convicted on 10 counts on Wednesday for repeatedly assaulting law enforcement officers at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6. Jose Padilla, who was arrested in Georgia in February 2021, was convicted after a bench trial before U.S. District Judge John Bates. Video shows Padilla repeatedly attacking officers on Jan. 6, including by pushing up against officers and hitting an officer with a flagpole. He has been held in custody since his arrest. Padilla was found guilty of 10 crimes, including assaulting, resisting, or impeding certain officers; civil disorder; assaulting resisting, or impeding an officer with a deadly or dangerous weapon. He was found not guilty of just one count, which involved the mob pushing an enormous “TRUMP 2020: KEEP AMERICA GREAT!” against a police line because Bates found the evidence of Padilla's intent in that incident "ambiguous."
