Former Republican National Committee (RNC) Chair Michael Steele last week said that he thought the GOP would have more power in Congress if the party “had our &*^& together.”
“Do Democrats understand how freaking lucky they’ve been that the Republican Party is so bats–t, Trumpy crazy?” former Republican presidential candidate Joe Walsh asked Steele on an episode of his podcast “White Flag,” released last week, referencing former President Trump.
“I don’t think they recognize that if we had our *(*( together, this wouldn’t even be close,” Steele said.
Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) “would be sitting there with about a seven or eight seat majority” in the upper chamber, “and the House would be closer to the numbers that I got in 2010,” the former RNC chair said.

Right now both Democrats and Republican parties in Congress are run under a model of strong armed blackmail and intimidation. Threats on committee positions, reelection campaign funding, or outright pork-barrel ear-mark bribes are the norm in securing votes along party lines.
There needs to be a new style of inspirational leadership that is enforced by an appeal to the voters. The Presidential Bully Pulpit use to be used for that.
Different perspective: Having their $hit together has been the GOP’s problem; way too much $hit. The party needs to flush its $hit forever, including turds like steele, and get on with actually winning and governing for a change.
Michael Steele......disgusting POS .....the ONLY thing he cares about is his BLACKNESS!
Steele is a Demonrat. Says it all.
