“ Now the RINOs and weenies are out of power and are hurting.”
I see no evidence that they are hurting and did not want this to happen.
Please provide such evidence.
For me this has become like watching a high school football game between two schools I never heard of. i.e. I really don’t care who wins. Both teams suck.
For America to have a chance at rebirth, the GOP must die.
They have been intentionally importing a permanent Democrat majority for 30 years.
They obstructed the one man who wanted to do something about it and then colluded with the Democrats to cheat him out of office.
GOP - RIP
I believe there are many GOPe types who like to be in the minority of the Senate. Less work and more money for them with Trump gone.
secession.
I am gonna keep saying that. Up until the supreme court failed in its duty to uphold what was left of the constitution I would never have said that. But the TX case took care of that thought.
Ripping out their jugular would be more desirable.
I believe this as well. I think the left told the GOPe not to fuss about the theft of the election from Trump. They told them if they would all go along with the “safe and secure election” narrative, the GOP would be allowed to win at least one of the Senate seats in Georgia. (I suspect Perdue). That is why the Perdue & Loeffler didn’t speak out much regarding the election theft or election security for the run-off and also ran such lackluster campaigns during the period leading up to the run-off election. Then, surprise, surprise, they find out the Dems lied!
Funny how most things are not as they first appear. They are in it for them selves and are the uniparty. No matter who is in what position, they will go the way they are told.
They held the Senate but I see no reason to believe that they wouldn't throw it so they had the luxury of having to do no work but get all the graft. Especially since the only way to keep the Senate was to support Trump's assertions that the elections in GA were fraught with issues. No way, they'd rather lose the Senate than that. If you still doubt it, their stubborn refusal to up the payments from $600 to $2,000 as urged by Trump should make it crystal clear. They suddenly remembered for this one item that the reckless spending is bad, after all this time? Nope, they threw it.
"The answer is where you have had to actually follow Mitch McConnell closely to see how he works. When the Majority has around 52 to 55 seats, they need McConnell to give them 8 to 9 votes to overcome the three-fifths (60 vote) threshold for their legislative needs. It is in the process of trade and payment for those 8 to 9 votes where McConnell makes more money, and holds more power, than as a sitting Majority Leader.
The 60 vote threshold, and McConnell’s incredible skillset in the minority, is where he shines. Each of the needed votes to achieve sixty is worth buckets of indulgence to the minority leader and those on K-Street who need the Senate to support their legislative constructs. The votes to get to sixty are worth a lot of money.
This institutional dynamic is the currency of affluence and influence in the Senate; this is why Harry Reid and Mitch McConnell never changed the Senate rules for legislative passage. This is why the filibuster was retained and why the 60 vote threshold was always beneficial to both parties. The color of the flag atop the spire matters not."

The RINOs got exactly what they wanted. It was their plan, too.
And now, all is well in their world again. ... well, almost ...
All will be well again once that bad orange man is impeached ... AGAIN!!!
