Amazing how he can talk so lightly of throwing away the legitimate votes of 74 MILLION PEOPLE, and surrendering our country to the CCP compromised Biden.

What a traitorous yellow dog COWARD.

In other words, overthrowing the Constitution and a US election through massive fraud and installing a Red Chinese puppet state in the place of the rightful winners is OK with this perfumed dandy as long as it doesn't make any unseemly waves and threaten his comfortable gig?

Our Founding Fathers would be grabbing their muskets, not looking for easy ways to legitimize this treasonous threat to our Republic. For starters, they would also tar and feather this miserable coward and ride him out of town on a rail.

If we’re talking about the Republican Party, it’s a legal entity. It’s officers and elected officials ARE the entity. Saying they’re not really the party is like saying the president, managers and board of directors, and stockholders of your local bank don’t represent the bank - but instead you and I do because we gave them deposits or borrowed money from them. Sorry, but if I go around saying I’m the real Wells Fargo and the chief executive is not really part of Wells Fargo, I’d get taken for a crazy person.

Translation: “The election was stolen fair and square. And the Republican Party approves.”

Just sent this to my sen and rep.....

‘It is obvious the 2020 elections were stolen from President TRUMP! If you and other elected officials can’t see it you are part of the problem and are members of the DEEP STATE that WE THE PEOPLE are fighting and will be fighting for ever more until thefts like this no longer are possible to take place in our country! YOU and your colleagues must join to stop this theft on JAN 6th and re-elect TRUMP as PRESIDENT! IF NOT we no longer support you or the REP party!! You no longer represent our views - just as you never have - really - you have been lying to us all along for your own benefit! IT WILL STOP!

For once think of your children and grand children’s lives - they will short lives and die miserable deaths in a socialist country you selfishly helped give them! YOU have the POWER to STOP IT!’

(John Thune) — who has publicly and privately pushed back against the effort being led by Rep. Mo Brooks (R-Ala.) — argued that it would be futile to force both chambers to vote on an objection to the Electoral College vote that is "not going anywhere."

If the dog lives or dies, it would serve the purpose to identify putative Republicans who are willing to accept the fraud. We don't need them anymore. Those who would fail to reject the fraud should be rightly primaried and "go down like a shot dog."

The Republican party is useless, time form a MAGA party and let the GOP die off. I’ll bet a MAGA party would pull in a lot of sane democrats.

Don Jr are you listening?

I called one of Thune’s state offices. I got past the voice mail on the fifth call to the three numbers. The woman was friendly and heard me out.

They’re getting calls. We just need to add to the volume.

That’s like saying Joe Biden is America.

NO! America is us. Because ultimately we are in power. They get their power from us. And without us they are nothing.

Same with the Republican Party. They’ve liked to us to maintain their power over us. But, when we see it clearly enough, we primary their asses and fire them.

We are the Republicans not them.

And starting another party doesn’t solve anything. Because the same sort of people will rise to power in it unless we learn to identify these rats, expose them and run them out.

“We are the Republicans not them.”

Really? Will you be allowed into the next Republican National Convention?
Who’s going to provide you an entrance pass? While you and I are out on the sidewalk, claiming were the “real Republicans”, the party will be inside, with McConnell and Thine in seats of honor

The GOP is a legal entity, a corporation I believe. It’s delusional for you or I to claim we’re more a part of it than the actual executives and leaders and elected officials and officers. Whatever claim we might have to a share in ownership - as registered voters who vote in primaries - is infinitesimally tiny compared to Thune, McConnell, Romney and others in roles of leadership

And if you think there is some “real” Republican Party somewhere that reflects your views more tha Thune, how do you explain that before Trump, the GOP gave us Romney McCain and W Bush as their candidates for president? Romney is the face of real Republicanism whether you will admit the obvious or not. Trump was an interloper and they’ve just about completed the plan for expelling him from the system. Notice that no Republican leader is fighting with Trump against the fraud.

I don’t get how people call somebody a RINO who I has been elected by his fellow GOP senators as their number 2 leader. Clearly they see him as more of a genuine Republican than somebody with views of an average freeper including myself

Saying that the Republican Party leadership are all RINOs and not real Republicans is to deny the reality of what the GOP is. It’s not a MAGA organization, it’s a Romney-Bush-McCain organization. Trump is the real RINO. Thune is an actual, conventional Republican.

technically that’s a good point . There is great disparity between GOP leadership and those of us who call ourselves conservatives.I use th term RINO when i see someone who’s not putting America first.
