Mike Lee: GOP Support of Omnibus Spending Bills ‘Should Never Happen’ — ‘We Will Self-Destruct as a Party’
Breitbart ^ | 12/22/2022 | Pam Key

Posted on 12/22/2022 4:30:29 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) said Thursday on Fox Business Network’s “Kudlow” that Republican support of giant omnibus spending bills “should never happen” again.

Anchor Larry Kudlow said, “Senator Lee, just the last point here. I think Sen. Rand Paul put his finger on it. He was on our show a couple of nights ago. He said the GOP has lost any power of the purse, and he said the GOP has emasculated itself. This is not a good episode for the Republican Party, is it?”

Lee said, “No, not at all.”

It’s Mike Lee’s turn to pretend he has principles.

“There really is only one party.”

I was actually surprised that so many Republicans voted for it with such enthusiasm.

I have been watching Tom Cotton. The traitorous POS is like Marco Rubio — they both talk a good game and say the right, patriotic things, but when it comes time to vote, they reveal their true colors. Some years ago I had thought that Cotton had been isolated from the deep state, but no. He folded into the crowd like baby pigs following the mother sow.

‘We Will Self-Destruct as a Party’

Sorry Mike we already did that.

If “the enemy” nuked DC right now it wouldn’t bother me much.

The show is over, the lights are out, the audience has gone home but the actors refuse to leave the stage.
The most pathetic performance by grade D listers in recent memory.
The next year will be meaningless politically.
McCarthy won’t do it, but the best revenge would be to hold hearings for the next year on election fraud in 2020 and 2022.
It’s the only issue that would get the Swamp’s attention.

The Republican Party is the Fakeservative Party.

It's a fake political party, period. The GOP platform is a rumor at this point because these frauds pay no attention to it, or their voters. A new party is needed to bypass these idiots, even it isn't the ideal way to go about it.

Arkansas senators Cotton and Boozman are indications of things to come in the GOP. They sold their constitutions down the river.

Hey Mike; I hate to tell’ya, but you already have!

The anti-TRUMP element of your party made sure of that, I changed to Independent after the 2020 election!

I agree with all of you: We need a new party.

The one essential ingredient for the new MAGA Party is Donald J. Trump. If he backs it, boom, instant credibility and millions of supporters. Without him, the new party is nothing.

I disagree with DHerion about 2030-32. The most realistic scenario is that, in the spring of 2024, Trump concludes that the GOPe will block him from the nomination. He bolts while he still has time to get a new party on the ballot around the country.

Trump tried to save the GOP. They refused to budge an inch.

Would DeSantis join a new MAGA party?

We can go 1 of 2 ways. All of us betrayed Republicans could join the Democrat party. I think we would have better chance of pulling the Democrat party to right than what we are doing now. Or form a new America First (AF) Party.

That’s what I would advocate. They did it to the GOP, now it’s time to return the favor.

Which way? Join the Democrats en masse or form a new party?

Either way we have to bail on the GOP. They better hope Trump continues his run and wins the primary and is re-elected.

The GOP doesn’t care. They would be happy to be the Washington Generals. The GOP needs to be utterly destroyed.
