What happens to the Republican Party now? (3 Viewers)

[MT15]

This election nonsense by Trump may end up splitting up the Republican Party. I just don’t see how the one third (?) who are principled conservatives can stay in the same party with Trump sycophants who are willing to sign onto the TX Supreme Court case.

We also saw the alt right types chanting “destroy the GOP” in Washington today because they didn’t keep Trump in power. I think the Q types will also hold the same ill will toward the traditional Republican Party. In fact its quite possible that all the voters who are really in a Trump personality cult will also blame the GOP for his loss. It’s only a matter of time IMO before Trump himself gets around to blaming the GOP.

There is some discussion of this on Twitter. What do you all think?

People want this kind of crap - they think it's "strong". That's the saddest part.

There's no way he wrote all of that. He probably just decided which words would be capitalized.

I hope Trump is in prison and not on the stage in the Republican primaries, but if he is there, it will be great to watch Liz Cheney rip him apart in the debates.


Sadly, he would probably still win though.

Liz Cheney isn't some folklore hero who stood up to the big bad Trump, she's a scumbag who wanted to extend her families business in politics. She's just as scummy as the Bushes and the Clintons and her father. Hope she has to go get a real job in the future.

yet, the people of Wyoming supported her until she turned on their dear leader.

Not saying Cheney is some great scion of morality but she could have taken the easy path like 95% of the GOP. She didn't. In my book that counts for something.

In other news, this country is effed.

I completely disagree with her policy positions probably 95% of the time….but I give her full props and credit for recognizing that idiot wannabe tyrants like Trump and his ilk are a danger to our current form of government….

in her speech she more or less said that she won with 73% of the vote before and if she chose to go against her morals, her conscience, her duty and her soul she would have easily won with 70% of the vote again yesterday

But she chose not to do so

Republicans have mounted an “attack on education” in 2022, according to a report, as lawmakers have introduced a soaring number of bills aimed at limiting classroom discussion of race and LGBTQ issues.

The number of “educational gag orders” introduced has increased by 250% compared with 2021, according to PEN America, a non-profit organization that works to protect freedom of expression in the US, as Republican legislators have sought to censor discussion of race and LGBTQ issues from the classroom.

According to PEN, 137 of the gag orders, which it defines as “state legislative efforts to restrict teaching about topics such as race, gender, American history, and LGBTQ+ identities in K–12 and higher education”, have been introduced in 36 states so far this year. In 2021 the organization recorded 54 gag order bills in 22 states.

“It’s unquestionable that things have got worse,” said Jeremy Young, PEN’s senior manager, free expression and education.

“Attacks on education, on educators, have got more coordinated and more dangerous. Escalation is the word that defines what we’re seeing. This is a series of increasingly vitriolic and dangerous attacks on teachers, educators and the educational system.”

PEN found that gender identity has been an increasing focus of conservative lawmakers. From the beginning of January this year through to mid-August, 23 bills have been introduced which would limit how teachers can discuss gender identity.

There is also an increased focus on punishments for discussing banned topics, with severe fines proposed for schools, universities and teachers themselves............

Republicans’ classroom gagging bills are ‘attack on education’, report says

I probably disagree with most of her policy, and I was no fan of Bush 1 or 2 or Dick Cheney, or McCain etc. But I would not pause or bat an eye if it was a choice between them and some MAGA-election-denial-conspiracy-believing-Q-Idiot

I don’t disagree. Until Donnie the Dimwit engaged “The Big Lie” she seemed content to support him. Yes, I am glad she had a line in the sand that she would not cross but…

she and everyone else knew what Trump was in 2016. That didn’t stop her from supporting him.

Good for her work on the J6 committee. I just hope they finish up before the mid-terms.

Looking like the Dems saved one yes to impeachment Republican. Still not over yet though.

Saw this yesterday and sent it to a friend from SD.

And Alex Jones...too. He failed out of Austin Community College. It's like they are in sync with their audience's ignorance and anger. A hate for something they cannot achieve.

Like I said before - the push for trade schools is not unrelated to the demonization of education in our country. The fewer people that go to college, the fewer Democratic voters there are.
