Glad I’ve decided not to vote in any future elections unless voter fraud is fully eliminated. Since the GOP doesn’t respect me enough to want to protect my ballot, and knowing they will never have the balls to do anything about it, they can kiss my old, saggy butt. I divorced the Republican Party on January 6th, 2021.

McCarthy and McConnell both are Rino’s destroying the Republican Party for personal gain. Maybe both are Soro’s stooges.

Here in Pennsylvania I will vote for the outsider candidates Tuesday since I have the options.

But your view is closer to truth most RINO’s go unchallenged in primaries the average person is numb to reality.

That’s what the drugs of this world do from food to money to adult beverages, porn, pot etc. etc.

In Georgia they cheer RINO Brian Kemp for signing “Constitutional Carry” and don’t realize he signed a “Mental Health” Law supported by Stacey Abrahams as well to create mechanisms to take firearms away from Georgians.

They want to rush to the polls to re-elect Kemp on May 24th.

The 145 that voted for Liz Cheney in Feb 2021 are not gone.

That’s why we will not get new leadership.

John Boehner is loudly clearing his throat, as though to remind everybody; “I’m available, by the way. Tanned, rested & ready!”

I’m old enough to remember when McCarthy had an affair with Renee Elmers and threatened members to lie about it, which of course they did.

Well, since he and Frank Luntz are roomies and butt buddies, how do you know he was lying about being heterosexual? He is highly suspect in that regard!

"But he never will be, because the Democrats, media and Big Tech have a plan to steal the election yet again."

Since nobody has ever stopped them in the past, and the fact that Republicans won't ever do anything about it, Democrats know they have free-reign to cheat, and won't even have to try to hide it. When criminals are allowed to get away with their crimes, they become emboldened, and will go to even greater lengths.

Jordan’s support suggests he won’t take on Sherrod Brown. He’s not a boat rocker.

Perhaps he’s afraid of leading a hard-right house filled with MTG-types. It would toxicate his future as Speaker or senator. He already passed on the Portman seat. No different than Sarah not taking on Murkowski in ‘16.

Others who chose to avoid the heavy lifting can include Jason Chavetzz and the big mouth(funny hair) from SC.

I believe in Jim Jordan so I’m giving him the benefit of the doubt. I think he had to weigh his options. Had to consider what he thought was right against how he could do the most good politically. He knows he can’t do much if he’s on outside looking in but can effect some measure of push and change toward the good if, and only if, he is in a position to do so from inside.

This is the part of politics I find the most distasteful.

I know….I was sick when I saw that Crenshaw was re-elected. Especially after being told off, by an awake and unhappy constituent, at a campaign stump.

Here is your answer. The average Republican US representative is a moderate. The conservative caucus is about 50 reps. You need 218 votes to be elected Speaker. That is why we always end up with a RINO for speaker. A conservative cannot get 218 votes. Sad but true. Trump is trying to reshape the US House but its an uphill battle.

True. There simply are no more political solutions.

A most honorable decision. I'll walk to the polls in November for the exercise, but it's a waste of sofa time.

It is like trying to fix something with totally broken or rotted parts. You know before you start it is hopeless.

It is easier for democrats, tearing things up and crushing them is simple. Not a one of them has the wherewithall about what to do after they accomplish that goal.

Hopefully God will step in.

Yeah, I saw that.

Disappointing ain’t quite the word for it...

Not to mention the Republican party, and conservatives in particular, are divided six ways from Sunday. Lower taxes is about the last appealing position they have for someone like me.

“The 145 that voted for Liz Cheney in Feb 2021 are not gone.”

Nor is Cheney herself, and she’ll probably easily survive the primary in Wyoming 3 months from now with the help of a lot of Democrats crossing over to put her over the top.
