They’re not listening. Or they’re listening but don’t care. McCarthy - majority leader.
If not a third party now, when?
“If not a third party now, when?”
After the November election. I suspect the Republicans are keeping their powder dry until then. There’s only 12 legislative days left until the election, and right after the election they vote on their leaders. That’s the vote that counts.
Until then, we’ll see what McCarthy does. Believe it or not, most Republicans in the House are conservative - it’s just that they’re also IDIOTS electing their leadership. The reason they look toothless now is because these “leaders” were plotting to team up with the Dems and the two dozen or so RINOs to get Amnesty passed. It puts a stain on the majority (maybe vast majority) that are not into that crap.
Well, things are different now - they’ve seen their hottest star fall, and fall hard. McCarthy may be as liberal as a Kennedy, but no matter what he tries, he still has to convince enough Republicans that they won’t also get their heads handed to them if they team with the Democrats. That will not be easy.
In any case, we shall watch and see. I much prefer to have conservatives take over the Republican Party, then to split our vote (as we did in 1992) and let another Clinton sneak into office.
McCarthy as House Majority Leader is insulting. The GOP is squandering its last chance to turn this runaway beast around.
