It’s interesting to me to see these GOPe throw millions at the GA runoffs for a couple Senate seats after being so blaise about a Democrat in the WHITE HOUSE.
We’re getting carpet bombed with radio and TV ads here in Jax, FLORIDA. Since most of us watching can’t vote in GA that is extravagant spending. Contrast that to the GOP allowing President Trump to run out of money.
Pubbies rolling over.....that is what they do best
When 30% of the Democrats believe the election was stolen, I can’t understand why the Republicans believe they need to certify this election.
They just dont want to fight.

With few exceptions not fighting is the core value of the GOP, unless it fighting their own.
Now they are scared and doing their best to avoid joining the rest of us in the camps ...
What conclusion do you draw from the fact that 48 Republican Senators and probably 170-180 Republican Members of Congress are what you call "hard core Democrat party hacks"?
> McConnell: “- - - - believing the debate over Trump’s refusal to accept the outcome of the 2020 election is tearing the party apart - - “
And yet The Hill NEVER badgered ANY Democrats about the Russian collusion farce “tearing the party apart”. The Gangstercrats never accepted that Donald Trump won the 2016 election.
Yes, all that’s missing is the name.
Yeah, The Hill is more controlled media, but do you doubt for a minute but the GOP Establishment’s operatives (strategists) are responding exactly as described?
The propaganda arm of our new masters is particularly effective.
Perdue signaled to a reporter he would fight it. I think that is just him trying to get elected
The overwhelming majority of the party’s base believes, quite rightly, that Joe Biden owes his victory to fraud. What about you? Do you think the election was fair and square?
The Hill article, among other things, is another example of the Fake News egging on the Republican leadership to betray the party’s base. They NEVER do this to the Democrats, e.g. the Russian collusion hoax.
Former Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele, who joined the anti-Trump group The Lincoln Project during the general election, will remain a Republican.
But Steele warned that efforts to overturn the results would have long-term consequences for the party, particularly in its efforts to be more appealing to Black voters.
Trump has done better with Black voters than past Republican presidents. But his campaign’s efforts to question the vote in urban Democratic strongholds has angered Black Republicans like Steele.
“It really puts the party in an untenable position,” Steele said. “For anyone in the Senate to double down on this tomfoolery is really something McConnell should be concerned about.”
“Honestly, it’s frustrating, embarrassing and amazing to me that Republicans still don’t know how to win. We picked up 11 seats in the House and became more diverse and might keep the Senate,” he said. “But instead of building off that, you might have senators openly questioning the results. It tells you a lot about how they see Black voters. The fact they’re trying to get the vote thrown out in some of these places, that’s not lost on Black voters.”

It’s hard to believe this lowlife was the RNC Chairman. It just goes to show you how bad the party was at one time. One question to the race-baiter, Mr. Steele, Are we seeking to disqualify votes based on race? Any sincere person could see that we aren’t. But I wouldn’t expect anything less from some Lincoln Project scumbag.
Republicans have zero situational awareness. They don’t see that:
1) Every Republican elected to Congress in November rode in on Trump’s coattails.
2) If this vote fraud is allowed to stand, America will never have another valid election.
On second thought, maybe #2 is a feature-not-a-bug to these RINOs because they’re part of The Club.
Truer words were never spoken.
Where you and I differ is that I don't believe what you call the "Republican leadership" need any egging on, I believe they are ecstatic over the election outcome and would not support an election challenge if you paid them.
Trump has done better with Black voters than past Republican presidents. But his campaign’s efforts to question the vote in urban Democratic strongholds has angered Black Republicans like Steele.
The disingenuous hypocrisy of @ssholes like Steele is nauseating. He complains about Trump undermining the GOP efforts to appeal to black voters, and yet Trump got historic levels of black support in a presidential election where this “black Republican” Steele openly opposed Trump and played Step ‘N Fetchit for his white Democrat “Massa” Joe Biden.
We have a new Political Party waiting to be born. We have 75m to 80m potential members who want this Party now. This crap with the GOP will never change until we force them to change, until we run off guys like McConnell, Ron Johnson, Mitt Romney, Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Mike Lee, Lindsay Graham, John Cornyn and any other RINO that climbs out of a hole. There is no other way to survive this mess.
After the shameful way the Pubbies are handling themselves and refusing to back their leader they need a rough and tumble knock down drag-out fight to rip the party in half so that it can rebuild itself into a party that has guts and a backbone. Let the fireworks begin on January 6th.
Then you do not understand who the Republicans are or what they are all about.
The Republican Party put up 16 candidates in the Fall of 2015 representing all shades of acceptable Republican opinion. Donald Trump swept them aside with a wave of his hand.
Donald Trump threatened (not very effectively) the three core tenets of the GOP:
1) Globalization of Production
2) Financialization of the Domestic Economy
3) Unlimited illegal immigration as cheap labor for the architects of #1.
THAT was the Republican goal in 2016. THAT is the Republican goal in 2020. THAT will remain the Republican goal until the GOP is burned to the ground.
Now that a champion of the three core tenets of the GOP is about to be installed in the White House, why wouldn't they be rushing to certify his election? Poor Biden, for as long as the real power centers in HIS party keep him around, is the GOP's dream candidate.
Oooh! Don't make the black kids angry!
