It's the same as some people calling for a new civil war. You don't throw away your country because radicals have taken over. You fight them and take it back.
The fact is people have been saying that for almost 30 years and the party is at the furthest left it has ever been. There is no denying either of those carved in steel facts.
When the entire leadership and a literal 90 plus percent of the party (the pols themselves, aides ect) is leftist, there is no ‘taking it back’ It is lost.
It is no white knight effort to fight the obvious any longer. It’s Don Quxiotie. Continued GOP support is destructive to constitutional governance. And EVERY decent pol needs to get out of that snake pit now. If they don’t they are not decent pols anymore.
No excuses.
He is? Is that why they campagned amongst rat constituencies to get their votes in the run-off? Is that why they pulled tricks against a conservative candidate that they have never stooped to use against the left? If that’s the GOP, I know I’m not a part of it, and he isn’t the man I think he is, if he is a part of such.
And I really doubt, when he ran on the GOP ticket, that he himslef expected them to pull out all the stops, down to the dirtiest, against a conservative candidate, when they grovel and mewl to the left.
