  1. These current Republicans take votes over expelling their own for not towing the party line. “You get a vote, but you better vote this way or else!” Democracy – Russian and North Korean style.

    1. Every Republican except Liz Cheney has gone way too far. They are now part of the cult party sadly. In 2022, we must remove Kevin McCarthy and his enablers to fully save America otherwise it’s over.

  2. Yeah, that says it all. God forbid if You actually HELP people !! WTF is wrong with these republicans ?? Have they NO Human Traits, caring compassion, empathy >?? I see NONE!

  3. GOP never had any policies worth speaking of. Every time they are in charge the deficit sky rockets, the economy tanks and income inequality expands.

    1. The current republican party are all about what THEY can get while in office, not about The People they take an oath to. FACTS don’t lie, although, the GOPQ and right wing propaganda machine would have everyone believing that they are the only politicians that will take care of Americans. When in fact, their party has never helped anyone but Wealthy Elites!!!

    2. The larger the equality gap the more money their rich donors have to spend on Republican campaigns and future political kick-backs, the larger the tax cuts the more money their rich donors have to spend on Republican campaigns and future political kick-backs. The larger govt program spending cuts or hand-offs of govt programs to private companies the more money their rich donors have to spend on campaigns and future political kick-backs.

  4. Ahhh. Got it now. He makes so much sense. McCarthy is done with Cheney because she wants 1-6 commission and his butt would be under oath. He’s a coward. But I guess that’s not a surprise with GQP!

    1. I have been screaming at them for 4 years, as more and more true conservatives leave and start saying even if I disagree with everything the Dem’s stand for, at least they’re honest when faced with the truth.

    2. Circular Firing Squad.

      Lock…
      Load…
      Aim…

      BOOM.
      Gone.

      Next for CANCEL…
      Lock, Load Aim REPEAT.

    3. Every Republican except Liz Cheney has gone way too far. They are now part of the cult party sadly. In 2022, we must remove Kevin McCarthy and his enablers to fully save America otherwise it’s over.

  5. I am incredibly tired of the old GOP expressing their dismay over the modern party. These are the people who smiled as the tea party lunatics marched in. They are the frog that invited the scorpion onboard.

    1. Right? They just showed a clip of Scarborough complaining about Biden and the “runaway spending” of big government, yet doesn’t propose actual policies that would favor the American people and not the big donors. Their party was always rotten to the core, and yet Nicolle and Joe still have their rose-colored glasses on.

    2. @The Thing if you have to put aside yesterday to deal with today do it to ensure a tomorrow.

    3. Sure, but it’s all hands on deck. The way to put down the Trump Idiocracy is to overwhelm it, publicly and at the voting booth.

  6. There is a country where there is but one outcome to an Election…..that is Russia ! Finally full blown Autocracy !

  7. STILL wondering how much Personal Information was Stolen by so called AUDITOR GROUPS..

  8. This guy is right ! The real republicans should stand up and get rid of the fake ones that are running the clown show!

  9. Trump demanded sycophantic loyalty without regard to any ability to do the job. That’s why his administration was so ineffective/destructive.

  10. On his new website, Trump is trying to sell plastic straws. I jest not. They’re red, and each has his name imprinted. For $215, you can get 150 straws. Ideal for sipping orange colored sugar water.

    1. You know, of course, that this item was added precisely because the scientific community — especially marine biologists — have tried to “cancel” plastic straws because they are so terrible for the environment.

  11. Didn’t think I’d hear a Kung Pow reference on MSNBC.
    “We trained him wrong, as a joke.”

  12. The Republicans have realized that the truth doesn’t matter what does matter is what they can get their supporters to believe

  13. A lot of Republicans have retired or don’t want another term. I’ve lost count Even Biden said he doesn’t recognize these Republicans.

  14. As the saying goes, “Never interfere with your opponent when they are in the process of destroying themselves.”
