How many counties did Trump carry? And a bunch are going to flip when the Rats have all but guaranteed they are going to impeach the POTUS they elected? I kinda doubt it. That said why in the hell did Trump dissolve the voter fraud commission? The lesson the Rats learned is that they didn’t cheat enough.
So Ed Gillespie lost his bid to be RINO governor of Virginia right? Well on this forum I spoke in defense of Virginians who refused to vote for any RINO ever and was sorely rebuked for it by those who hold to the “lesser of two evils” doctrine.”
Our situation here in NC is similar. The Christian conservatives, or enough anyway, refused to vote for Pat McCrory though enthusiastically supporting Trump, so committing an act of treason against the cause, so I am told, by default advancing the liberal agenda here in NC.
There is a “lesser-of-two-evils” doctrine on this forum, regardless of what you call it or how you characterize it. There is a “no-RINOS-ever-again” doctrine also on this forum no matter what you call it or whether you like it or not.
I am inclined toward the never RINOS idea only because of my age. I am sick of hearing “lesser -of-two” and it has never worked. On the other hand, “punishing republicans” as a strategy to “teach a lesson” to such idiots as the GOP strikes me as pitiably naïve.
What do you think GibsonGuy? Which way should we go? If “never-RINO” means we lose the senate or house or both, is that the way to go? If keeping the Senate and the house means we must continue to compromise with RINOs is that what we must do? And more importantly, do you play a Gibson guitar, and how can we hear you play?
I suspect the cause has been lost before we realized it. As Gen Jumpin’ Jim Gaven says in “A Bridge Too Far”, “It was Nijmegen.”
