Senate Republicans Are Failing Us... Big Time
PJ Media ^ | 11 Mar 2021 | Matt Margolis

Posted on 03/11/2021 2:30:53 PM PST by Rummyfan

The Democratic Party stood virtually united “resisting” Trump for four years. Their stalwart opposition was ruthless and unwavering. It had been my hope that if there was any lasting legacy of Trump in the Republican Party it would be that he taught them not just to not walk away from a fight but to actually fight back.

Yet again, I find myself disappointed.

On Wednesday the Senate confirmed racial conspiracy theorist Marcia Fudge as HUD secretary, and Merrick Garland as attorney general.

Fudge was confirmed 66-34, and Garland 70-30.

How did Fudge get sixteen Republicans to vote for her confirmation? And How did Garland get twenty?

Rest assured, I’m not calling for blanket opposition to Biden’s nominees. That is not a good strategy. But fighting the nominations of exceptionally bad nominees should be an easy thing for the GOP to unify and rally behind. Yet they’re not.

In April 2020, she (Fudge) claimed the COVID-19 pandemic proved that America is systemically racist, and accused the Trump administration of opening up businesses targetting lower-income America to get black people to spending their COVID relief checks. She also justified the riots and looting. “George Floyd’s murder just brought to the surface generations of pain,” she said last June. “We have to make sure we strike when the iron is hot.”

You would think Republicans would have learned by now that if you offer Democrats your hand, they take the whole arm.

Nope. Republicans are failing us, period. It’s all a big joke. We have been played for decades.

There really isn’t Two Political Parties. Every once in a while, we sneak a conservative in but really they’re two side of the same coin.

In 2022 we must begin replacing the Bush League Republicans.
Murkowsky, Thune, Hoeven, Grassley, Lankford, Lee, Scott, Moran and Rubio.

We will never Make America Great Again by re-electing Assistant Democrats.

That’s ok, we have a BRILLIANT new strategy to deal with those pesky RINOs, courtesy of Lin Wood, who had us hand the Senate to the Democrats:

We sit out general elections, let the Democrats win, let them outlaw our guns, let them permanently rig voting, let them flood the country with illegals and make citizens of the ones already here, and let them silence us.

That will teach those RINOs!!!!

I wish more people would wake up to this. They are a fake political party, period. They exist to make a large group of people think that they have representation in politics when in fact they have none (or very little). The GOP lost control of the Senate on purpose, so that is all one needs to know.

Democrats nuked the filibuster in 2013 when it came to all appointments other than the Supreme Court.

Cabinet officers can’t be filibustered. These nominations were going to pass. Period.

Putting Fudge in HUD gets her out of the House and narrows the Rat majority there until a special election can be held. Maybe lightning will strike and the Democrat will get “Caoed.”

Putting Garland in as AG gets him off the DC Circuit.

They could have published this title 20+ years ago, and it would have been appropriate at that time too.

Oh please, the RINOs made little or no effort to win those two seats, and allowed the same, corrupt election system a second time. They had no intention of winning those seats back. If it weren't for Trump, GOP voters would not have shown up in the numbers that they did. Lin Wood was a non-factor.

“The RINOs made little or no effort to win those two seats”

Oh, Big Boy, you’re just JEALOUS that Lin Wood came up with the strategy instead of you.

There aren’t too many BRILLIANT strategists in the Republican Party, but Lin Wood is certainly one of them!!!

Spot on.

I guess that makes us lizard people...lol.

Funny how the snakes come out in force, to protect their beloved RINO Reps and system, when the truth is exposed.
