This GOP Senator Is Sticking Up for Cheney and Murkowski
Townhall.com ^ | 3/7/21 | Bronson Stocking

Posted on 03/08/2021 2:46:29 AM PST by cotton1706

"I want to always make sure we nominate somebody who can win in November," Sen. John Barrasso (R-WY) told NBC's Chuck Todd during "Meet the Press" on Sunday. "Lisa Murkowski knows Alaska better than anybody, and she's an incredible fighter for American energy. She hasn't made an announcement if she's even going to run again. If she does, I'm going to support her."

Switching gears to Cheney, the senator argued that his fellow Wyomingite is a strong fighter when it comes to opposing the Biden administration. Cheney leads the House Republican Conference. Sen. Barrasso chairs the Senate Republican Conference.

"So, I support her," Barrasso continued. "I disagree with her completely on the issue of impeachment. She voted one way. I voted the other."

Wouldn't it be nice to have Republicans who were good on energy, good at standing up to the Biden administration, but who also didn't have the annoying habit of stabbing their fellow Republicans in the back? Surely there is someone in Wyoming and someone in Alaska who fits that bill.

Barasso is a McConnell minion.

You can see it coming. They're circling the wagons.

They will expend all kind of energy and move heaven and earth to get Murkowski and Cheney reelected...just to stick it to conservatives. Just to prevent a conservative scalp.

They remember when we took out Eric Cantor.

They HAVE to show conservatives that they are powerless to remove THEM from office.

It's sick. But this is what we are dealing with.

Stick with the Republican Party. You have nowhere else to go. Give the GOP the Presidency, House and Senate and miracles will happen. Drink your Soma and obey.

This lifetime GOP ticket voter (and his better half) won’t be voting GOP in 2022. And you can thank the likes of this useless senator for our non votes.

thats the UniParty...and this is their business..

The coup, (the real “insurrection” in DC) and the “impeachment” is because Donald Trump upended THE largest, multi-trillion dollar industry in America. The selling of American Congressional Legislation. The primary industry in DC.

THE issue that binds Red and Blue together in the UniParty is the issue of electoral fraud.Its why certain precincts have voted Red or Blue for over 100 years. Its the means by which Congress and K St lobbyists can guarantee “product delivery” to interests that pay enough.

Various “intelligence agencies” are the enforcement arm. Prolly different ones (there are 17 of them afterall!) supporting different “service lines”

Its mutually assured destruction if either side starts to betray the long-standing inter-generational process.

Whenever the issue starts to bubble too close to the surface we all start getting entertained with “pizza parties” and “SRA” issues/trafficking stories etc.-and other Red-Blue “trigger issues” intended to distract us-but these are only incidental to the business at hand-the selling of the votes and legislation of the most powerful legislative body in the world.

These “trigger issues” are intended to remove our eyes from what is going on right before our very eyes! These “trigger issues” are the stick the Deep State uses to marshal the votes they need to deliver product.

The contemporary information-digital communications technology has the ability to put an end to all of this -which is why the “information war” on the American electorate. Why “us” versus “them” is finally crystallizing.

Its why they barricaded Capitol Hill, The White House and The Supreme Court

If you are one of the GOP politicians that threw The Donald under the bus then you deserve to be primaried at the very least.

A majority of the GOP frauds in the House and Senate support their corrupt leadership teams—or they wouldn’t have them as their leaders.

I live in W PA and Guy Reschenthaler is my congress critter, and I will vote for him.

The Senate candidate hasn't been ordained yet, but the PA pubbies are members of the dumbest organization that it has ever been my disgrace to have been associated with.

Santorum was the last PA pubbie that was even mildly acceptable in the Senate.

I will vote for a pubbie, but they will have Trump's backing or I won't do it.

If the voting scam is not overturned before 2022, it won't make any difference.

Incumbents are re-elected more than 95% of the time. Trying to reform the GOP is the wildest of long shots.

Yes, incumbents are re-elected 95% of the time. Until 25 “retired” with Ryan and surrendered their House seats to Pelosi in 2018.

“Incumbents are re-elected more than 95% of the time. Trying to reform the GOP is the wildest of long shots.”

And we PROVED THEM WRONG by voting out the two Georgia Senators and handing the Senate to Georgia.

...nice to see the Republicans got the message regarding our strategy, as this article shows!

Yes, and retired in the sense that they took their lobbying efforts private.

By failing to fight the Steal those Georgia senators sacrificed themselves.
