First off, the term Republicrat specifically and succinctly describes the GOP. Too often the “conservatives” we vote for do just the opposite of what they said they were going to do, or make taken displays of disingenuous “action” to placate their voters and avoid standing up to the Dems. They are basically enablers.

Secondly, the best political results arise from accountability. The Republicrats know they are going to get the ‘tribal’ vote no matter how many times they backstab the people who voted for them. And so nothing changes. Those who commit to strongly supporting the MAGA agenda and welcome accountability are definitely worth voting for, but those with track records of misleading voters are not IMO.

To EEE’s specific point, he raises a perfectly legitimate question: why crawl through broken glass to vote for people who don’t have much, if any, respect for the will of their voters?

Such a recommendation fits nicely into primary election considerations (R v R) which precedes any November general election (R v D) but dodges the specific point in our exchange and is nonresponsive.

But I will answer your question:
why crawl through broken glass to vote for people who don’t have much, if any, respect for the will of their voters?
To keep a "Biden" supporter out of federal office, to add seats to the R chamber and to then have an opportunity to more effectively manage the wayward R.
