Jim Rutenberg: ‘Trump Has Created A New Litmus Test For The Party’ | Deadline | MSNBC
The president is preparing for life outside the White House in exactly the way one would expect- by initiating new grifts.
30 Lawsuits are patiently wating for him in New York.
The GOP is splitting into 2 groups: those that believe in objective reality and those that support Trump.
My only question – which group keeps the Republican name.
@Michael Phillips Sadly with all the kinda ok somewhat decent ones, they have changed their R to an I or decided to leave and “spend time with their families”. So I guess the Ron Johnsons and Matt Gaetzs are the face of the GOP moving forward… sigh…
@TheMorganRose ya. I think the GOP will be the trumpet party. Maybe the new party can call themselves the American Conservative Party.
Toh wow

The republican party is the party of traitors.
Yeap & of Crooks & Fraudsters…….their voters take pride in electing them!
@gary moore English please. tRump University graduate?
@gary moore another typical asinine uneducated Trump sycophant. Run along back to your reptilian tribe.
@gary moore huh… you need to get the English dictionary back from the comrade in the next cubicle
Boh yes

oh wow
its a great time to be a crook if you know the president
Trump continues to rely on dubious handouts. First from his father. Now from his supporters.
GOP is now 18 U.S. Code § 2384.Seditious conspiracy: If two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States, or to levy war against them, or to oppose by force the authority thereof, or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States, or by force to seize, take, or possess any property of the United States contrary to the authority thereof, they shall each be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both.
(June 25, 1948, ch. 645, 62 Stat. 808; July 24, 1956, ch. 678, § 1, 70 Stat. 623; Pub. L. 103–322, title XXXIII, § 330016(1)(N), Sept. 13, 1994, 108 Stat. 2148.)
If you were a 1/2 smart criminal you wouldn’t be in the same town as trump.
@Don Quixote WTF did you get “Smart” and “Trump” in the same sentence?? He is just vicious and rich to throw money at anyone to scare them from attorney fees? The only thing he knows Libetards are scared of action
Joh yes

oh wow
Trump hasn’t transformed the Republican party, he’s just revealed who they’ve been for years.
EXACTLY !!! Trump is basically just an extension of the RACIST ROT, CORRUPTION and SLIME they’ve ALWAYS been !!!
Republicans where always idiots
@Michael Kurchak your right of course i stand corrected
I think Trump has revealed who SOME of them have been for years… not all. Trump has effectively stirred the GOP soup and the nastier bits have risen to the surface.
@Tessmage Tessera Oh DEFINITELY !! The ROT crawled out of the woodwork for Trump !! Trump is just an extension of their OWN RACIST ROT and SLIME !!!
Party? The GOP isn’t a party; it’s a cult.
Cult – an instance of great veneration of a person, ideal, or thing, especially as manifested by a body of admirers. Yep, that sums up the GOP wherever you are.
@Matt Wolf I think I’ll skip that little trip to Jesus Land. The fact that the middle of the country voted again for Trump is reason enough for me to travel miles above flyover country.
@Mr. Greenjeans two weeks for any derecho assistance less than 6 months ago and they still voted for him lol
Point BLANK…. straight UP ROT of one !!!
Toh wow
https://youtu.be/zFJ2AN_CZH8
From Canada this looks like a treasonous coup attempt, no doubt aided by Putin.
Looks that way from USA too
Why not say it out loud: un coup d’etat!!! Unheard of, isn’t it in USA
And Australia.
It looks like one from here too.
@charles ang not anymore! Low class casino boss mentality trump reduced us . But our strength and integrity is coming back!! We just have to get through this dark chapter in American history
People are fools who follow Trump because he destroys EVERYTHING he touches.
@Dave Clark I’m iggnorent….. uh uh… ignorent
@Dave Clark My ears hear Biden can’t speak….. how does it sound to you dumocrat?
@Dave Clark member when you were in a band with 4 other white men?
@John D He talk better than the Orange Failure in the WH. Or have you smocked too much Covfefe to hear that? Bin bing bing bong bong. The President of the United Stech needs 2 hand to drink a glass of water and 15 mins to shuffle down a ramp
FFS, he’s too dumb to even close an umbrella
Everything Trump touches dies.
Fbi is going after trump n his partners n ATTY someone is gonna get hurt with all TRUMPS LIES!!
I’m praying for that
Boh yes

oh wow
@Kia Sutu REPORTED 🙄
You know who else demanded a loyalty test?
Jim Jones.
Say hello to your republican party, ladies and gents! 😅😂🤣
Maybe they’re planning on baracading themselves in the White House on Jan 20nd then offing themselves when the military breaks in to remove them. I wonder if they’re running mock drills involving a cup of kool-aid.
Didn’t Jim Jones claim they were going to take a plane to Russia that never came?
They fight the law and the law wins
Also something that doesn’t get mentioned often, the fact that almost everyone left in Jonestown at the end was injected with poison at gunpoint when they realized the “kool-aid” was poisoned. When they tried to finally say no it was too late.
Pelosi: “I’m counting down the hours ‘til he’s gone. I plan to pull him out of there by his hair, his little hands and his feet.” 😂
Do you have a source for that quote?
But Republicans are the violent ones.
Republicans do not want violence they want peace. If they wanted violence you would see it all over the news.
@Matt Wolf you seem like the type that would call the Republicans a “Pro-life” party, but then you would agree with the 3 executions that Trump had scheduled to take place before he leaves office. Did you know cops in the 60s used to say similar stuff about black people? Were the cops doing it because they were arguing from facts like you, I think not. Also I could point out the Republicans have started many wars while in power or created other forms of international conflict, do you not think wars are violent? What you are doing is called argumentum ad populum.
oh wow
https://youtu.be/zFJ2AN_CZH8
From claiming voter fraud to openly stealing and now using martial law ! Is he the president we really want !?!
right now he is trying to avoid all the court time he is racking up
Toh wow

“The presidency doesn’t enhance who you are it reveals who you are.” Michelle Obama. Mary Trump said “Donald has never been in a situation that someone else couldn’t get him out of until now.”
power ampllifies character
Well we already had warnings from psychiatrists… Textbook Malignant Narcissist with Sociopathy, dangerous, & willing to destroy everything without a 2nd thought
Toh wow
https://youtu.be/zFJ2AN_CZH8
Trump has created a new litmus test for crazy. These people are Trumpublicans.
Conald J Swamp is turning America back to year zero.: no democracy, no constitution, absolute loyalty, Mass deaths of Americans…
trump was never president he just play’s one on tv
We haven’t had a president since Obama left office.
The only thing Rump could create is dirty underwear for himself.
The Litmus Test is for cowardice and submissiveness.
