Republicans have been a W.A.A.C. party since Nixon but it's gotten worse as they see their once firm majority continue to dissolve. It must be hard for sociopathic criminals to lose elections. |

Thanks for sharing Kees. Can't disagree withe writer's assessment. I find it scary with the direction of the Republican Party. Moreover, combating these tactics could well undermine Democrats as well in the process. The deterioration of democratic principles because of the "win at all cost" mentality is frightening.

This Guardian article seems to me quite a good assessment of the state of the Republican party nowadays and thus where the US of A are heading...

^And T***p is so desperate to get re-elected to avoid the inevitable onslaught of legal peril that he will torch anyone who stands in his way. I'm happy to have a front row seat for that.

I thought it was hilarious how Biden got the Republicans to take social security off the chopping block during the state of the union address. And he did it with such ease. Pretty good for an old coot. Nonetheless, I'm sure they won't give up on that, but it won't look in good in the press now that they're "publicly committed."
But yeah, you're right. Americans get what they deserve if they keep voting in clowns (and dangerous ones I might add) like Santos, Green, Boebert, Gaetz, Gosar, DeSantis, and trump.

Considering the depth of Republican criminality and corruption, I
wouldn't count on this somehow signaling they are "eating
themselves alive"... not yet. The far Right will do anything if they
think they're losing. Especially if they think they're losing their
credibility over the long term, which of course they are.
Ultimately it's who people vote for--- you can't subvert an election
without getting some pesky attention as a Fascist criminal. If New
Yorkers vote for a George Santos, they get a George Santos. If Arkansans vote for a Sarah
Huckabee they get a Sarah Huckabee. If the country votes Trump back in or
gives DeSantis "a chance", then that's who we're stuck with for four
years. Edited by Atavachron - February 08 2023 at 16:58 |
