“You just gave a logical, concise, and well-reasoned argument for selling out your base and giving up your principles.”
This is the “conservative” playbook. In every country, for the last 60+ years.
The Dems come from a collectivist mindset, were as the Right come from a
Individualist mindset. For a Repub leader it’s like trying to herd cats.
Which is why we need Especially strong leadership, and leaders like Boehner crying on his tie, Hastert chasing little boys, or P Rino wondering where he left the keys to the Wiener Mobile, aren’t going to cut it.
People who go along to get along are way to weak to be in these positions, unfortunately, that is a trait that is to often found on the Right, they’re just not constituted to be confrontational and fight, they’re wimps.
“What a liar.”
Sort of Like You.
I haven’t lied. What do you believe that I lied about?
Wasn't the senate the problem?
Three Republican senators — John McCain, Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski — and all Democrats voted against the bill
It’s a game. They all talk to each other. Obama won’t sign, they knew. So, they send it to him 50 times to sign knowing full-well that he won’t sign. The left-wing Republicans don’t have to do a thing.
Trump says, “I’ll sign it”. Suddenly, 3 senators step in to make sure that it can’t be on Trump’s desk.
We’ll see how history will be remembered, but I’m thinking more and more than ousting McCarthy will not be remembered fondly. But that is in part due to the availability of hindsight. Now we know that someone even worse than McCarthy was waiting in the wings to betray his electorate. I’ll never trust Johnson again.
And sadly a significant portion of the Republican voter base will believe him.
They’re posting right on this thread😳
Our course he could not, that’s why he is verifiablly insaine with a split personality....
You big dummy, you let Pelosi and Hoyer keep their Speaker and House majority offices for 10 months after you made Speaker. It wasn’t until your buddy Patrick McHenry was made temporary Speaker that he kicked them out, and he only did it because he was ticked that the RATS had failed to save your sorry ass.
One of McCarthy's problems, and issue that GOP members had with him, was that McCarthy wasn't complying with his own agreement to allow single issue Bills to be voted on. He continually lumped them all together. I'm not happy with Johnson's performance, but at least has separated Bills...example...there were three separate Bills on aid to Israel, Ukraine, and Taiwan.
Typical assistant democrat.
“What do you believe that I lied about?”
That he made a deal to keep his job.
I looked over the thread. I never said that.
