The republican lovable losers are selling out America to the highest bidder.

Like a pop up fireworks display. I’ll take some F35s, couple of suitcase nukes and sparklers for the kids.

The whole idea is to marry into that scam straight, gay or lesbian.

Grandpa and Grandma are on the menu.

snap!

David Frum, David French, and David Brooks. They all say the same thing, surrender.

This article, correct as it is, made me sad. I respected French once, before he went insane over President Trump.

I wouldn't call it losing, it's more like French and other GOP elites are pissed that they're not going to be pets for the Left anymore, where they get to hobnob with other leftists and only pay lip service to conservatism during election year.

That's the biggest takeaway in all of this, and that's why you have this irrational, I mean borderline psychotic anger at Trump. I mean the Left poked fun at Bush but it's like that old cartoon with the sheep dog and coyote punching in and out and being cordial to each other only to be opposites throughout the day. With Trump, they knew Trump was bringing down all this crap and showing Americans what a farce the two-party system is.

It is a no-brainer that any so-called “republican” that chooses the NY Slimes, Politico, The Compost, CNN, etc...to air their grievances is a stone-cold RINO or, as some put it, an Assistant Democrat, or Democrat Lite.

I was honored to work with @kmele, @thomaschattwill, and @jasonintrator to write in the NYT against broad, vague laws designed to suppress CRT. They’re speech codes and thus “antithetical to educating students in the culture of American free expression.”

Would they also support the right to teach CRT from a KKK perspective? I did not think so.

As I’ve written recently, Republicans have made serious gains

Don't be absurd.

Any gains have been made by outraged and activated parents, none of whom have a serious Republican identity, and they are getting zero help from the Party.

Their only principle is to hve no principles.
Their only strategy is preemptive surrender.
Their only plan for victory is to alienate their base as much as possible.

They did such a good job of replacing the Whigs that they have become the Whigs.

No, they are regulations to prevent children from being maleducated, Mr. French. Has nothing to do with "speech." Do you truly not know the difference? Under this logic Holocaust Deniers should be able to contribute to curriculum since prohibiting their nonsense would be "speech codes."

At least Frum's wife is kind of attractive.

And whether they do or do not - no one should abdicate their responsibility on something like this to politicians. These are our children and our education system we are talking about.

OK, CRT is in the “marketplace of ideas”. They make it SOUND like capitalism, the American Flag, mom, baseball, and all that.

The problem is that it is a garbage product that you are forced to buy at very high prices upon pain of losing your wealth (home) or freedom (jail). And the other, better products have suddenly become unavailable for purchase.

“Again, the losing is the point because if Republicans win this battle, it’s another mark against an establishment wing that has gotten way too comfortable profiting off of failure. Luckily, few on the right are listening to the likes of French anymore.”

Failure is a good business for the grand OLD party. It’s so much easier and just about as profitable to complain meekly than it is to lead. I seem to recall, after who knows how many House votes shutting down Obamacare, that they suddenly had both houses and the Presidency and did squat. Trump was waiting for a plan. I’ll bet that not a single page of that plan was written.

Partner, all of these guys are Rinos!

These @#$%^$%$ guys should not even be seen in the Republican party and the least they can do is to whole heartily apologize for these comments.

Of course they never will so let us get them out now.

We are sick and tired of these $%#^&$*& Rinos.
