Washington Post columnist Megan McArdle pleaded with Republicans on Friday to have a "Dr. Phil moment" and get themselves out of their "dangerous" relationship with former President Donald Trump unless they want to commit "party suicide."
The column insisted that Trump has been "wrecking" the GOP for years with his "scandals" and "ego," and claimed that if the party continues to embrace him, the idea of a red wave in upcoming elections will end up "more like a ripple."
McArdle began her column with the premise that sensible Republicans have been secretly hoping Trump could have been kicked to the curb in 2016 but were unwilling to do the job themselves. "By mid-February 2016, it was clear that some kind of collective Republican action would be needed to keep Donald Trump from winning the nomination. Instead, everyone stood around hoping that someone else would do the job for them," she wrote.
Over the past six years, that same scenario has played out time and time again. She added, "This was an error they repeated many times in the ensuing years, keeping quiet about outrage after outrage, passing up two separate chances to remove him from power and ensure he could never run again."

Pweese, pweese, pweese help my daddy so I can keep taking showers with him like I did when I was...15.
What IS this THING? Buck teeth and all. Oh.. a “journalist”
from the paedo supply ring?
More proof the RATS are scared as hell.
Is that a woman (sure looks like a man)?
Darlin, your desperation is showing. Do you need to spend some time in a safe place?
Dear Megan,
Phook U
Have a nice day
Meghan could purchase some ‘equipment’ and go ‘do’ herself.
So they wanted to get rid of him in Feb, 2016, despite the fact he won the election.
Who else on that podium during those primaries would’ve beaten hillary in Nov 2016?
I heard Dr. Phil had a nice gun collection.
I’d rather be forced to gaze at Hellen Thomas.
I like his policies, but have never been a fan of the guy himself. But their concerted attempts to sabotage his Presidency before it began, the Russia crap, and all the rest of it makes it more important to defy them than to abandon him.
Scared much?
A fry short of a “Happy meal”.
“Some things are really pretty simple.
The Washington Post is an outlet for CIA propaganda.
I was far better off when the Trump administration was running things and the world was too.
I want Trump back. MAGA is here to stay.”
I could not agree more with that.
” sensible Republicans have been secretly hoping Trump could have been kicked to the curb in 2016 but were unwilling to do the job themselves.”
Republicans that don’t do their job are “sensible”? Author must mean RINO’s.
Yes because WAPO is so deeply concerned for Republicans’ well being.
McCardle’s article appears to be short on facts and long on beltway sentiment.
The MSN story cites no examples of malfeasance, only unproven inferences—aside from ego. Doubtful the original WAPO story does either.
Shove it up your _ _ _, Meg.
“That’s a man, baby!”
It is time to bring it.
I am willing to die for this country. Are they?
She looks happy...............
