We have to elect better Republicans than we had in 2017-18 who wasted the first two years of the Trump administration obstructing the President.
McCarthy is engaging in a little political wishful thinking.
Here in California, the massive number of aliens is simply pushing out any hope of the “Republicans” who were diselected in 2018 getting back in.
The RINO squishes have no body but themselves to blame for that. They been on the mass immigration bandwagon for decades, believing that if they went along with it they would not appear to be mean.
Didn’t matter. They got dumped anyway. The aliens want Stuff and they gonna git it by electing professional thieves and shakedown artists (”Democrats”). That’s how it works where they come from, so they figure its cool here.
No appeal to lofty egalitarian Republican ideals are going to do anything to change that.
So it’s gonna be a tough sled for KevKev, who’s part of the problem. He and his squish buddy - Paul Ryno - threw the last election after pissing away 2 years, as you said. Same as 2005-2006.
Either the R party becames a solid wave of Trumpists or they drown. The Rats have shown over the last 3 years that they will stop at NOTHING to get power and destroy the opposition.
McCarthy aint got the stones to do that. Trump does, but he’s one guy.
I reckon the GOP intentionally conceded the house to the dems so they could block Trump without being seen as blocking Trump themselves. Unprecedented number of surprise retirements from GOP incumbents in safe districts right before the election plus a general lack of effort showed that they wanted the loss.
I'd vote them back in over the dems, but I'll never fully trust them. Ever.
