The phrase “moderate Republicans” is a euphemism for testicularly- and spinally-challenged RINOcrats.

Any Moderate is a fool. We want extreme change. The Progressives have controlled both parties since 1988. It’s time for the pendulum top swing wildly to the Conservative side. No half measures.

Trump won by a landslide—especially considering those who would vote for him if not for the lies. He has a mandate. Standing in the way of that is political, fiscal, and cultural suicide.

red state and it’s sister sites (Townhall, etc) are the biggest rhinos on the planet. These politicians aren’t moderate and they’re not looking for compromise.
They are on the other team, playing the long con on naive conservatives who want to believe “our” guys are just misled or some such.
Nothing will change till we make it very hard for lousy politicians to do the wrong thing, continually.

I use the term Divas singing arias to describe some Republicans as no matter what the Party’s push is there are always some of them that try to block whatever the party is pushing for. The Democrats may support lame agendas but they almost always get their agenda passed because of majority support of the members of their party.

GOP Moderates Are Learning the Wrong Lessons from 2024—and Risk Losing Everything in 2026

They don't care - for the RINOs, losing the House majority in 2026 is worth it if they can impede Trump.

GOP "moderates" and neocons need to be come part of the GOP's history - the alternative is that the GOP will become history. There's no future in playing Democrat-Lite.

Trump ought to go directly to states of Senators and House districts of these useless RINOS and tear them a new one by name.

Shame them with their voters.

Haer that Rand? Mess-in-pants Massie? Collins? Lisa Cowbimbo?

To hell with the party.

A moderate Republican is half a Democrat. Primary every single one. Your vote in the primaries is worth 10 times more because only 10% of eligible voters show up

Once upon a time in 2012, I evaluated 4,442 essays submitted by elementary-school students. I can’t divulge the prompt — that’s a trade secret protected by ferocious blood oaths. To loosely paraphrase, though, it was — “Which public figure do you respect most?”

As may be expected, 25-35% of the kids respected Barack or Michelle.

The number of Romney admirers was much easier to count. One (1). NOT 1%. Not even 42 of those kids could muster up any enthusiasm for Mitt.

At that point, I knew that the fight was fixed, the game was rigged, and the previously-selected candidate had already been chosen to win. And Mitt Romney had volunteered to serve as the chump, the patsy, the LOSER.

Do keep in mind a historic first occurred the last day- the first time in US history our Treasury Debt instruments were downgrade below AAA- by the three major agencies.

Means nothing to the average Joe- but an earthquake in the financial industries.
Many sovereign funds ( and Pension funds) prohibit “ investing” in anything less than AAA.

AA1 ratings are not junk, but very important to the world investors. Pull up Moody’s clear warning, we are in a debt spiral.

Just ending the tax on social security would win them 80% of the house and Senate in the midterms

“Moderate Republicans” actually benefit from the corruption in DC.

The feckless Republicans in Congress are dithering while a constitutional crisis has emerged. It is time for the
creation of a new party, and send the Republican Party the way of the Whigs and No-Nothings.

Some, reportedly including President Donald Trump himself, have suggested tax hikes on the rich.

The exceptionally rich hide their income in tax-exempt "charitable" foundations not available to the middle class. Said foundations are often used for profitable purposes putting their competitors out of business with regulations foisted by the activist groups they support. I exposed the process with my first book and made a habit of exposing the practice in the early days of FR. Today, they launder the money first through intermediary foundations such as Tides.
