The GOP is more concerned about their personal well being, than the decline of the country.

any other RINO that climbs out of a hole

Wake up! Those "RINOs" are the REAL REPUBLICANS.

Vote Republican, that's what you get.

The only thing believable about this “news” is the date, and I’m skeptical about that.

Because of the Lincoln Project as well as other seemingly tepid responses by the GOP, voting numbers might start to drop for Repubs that correlate with the FOX news fallout.

In the future, this will hurt moderate Senators and moderate GOP candidates. HORs candidates are more localized so this blowback effect will probably not harm those creatures that much. The GOP/Lincoln project stooges are digging their own graves because the 2020 election is a watershed moment.

There must be some Senators in the GOP, that could be in on the rigged election.

All of today’s politicians would have stayed in England. No doubt in my mind.

Most of them are only in D.C. to party, enrich themselves, and feel superior to real Americans.

I disagree.

The decline of the country is their greatest concern - America must fall to usher in the New World Order in which the GOP elected officials imagine they will be well-rewarded and playing important roles as district officials, commissars, and financiers.

The Swamp will be exposed even more. Trump will still be the leader of the Republican Party or a new Party. Their fear is Trump has too much support. McConnell wants to be the leader resenting Trump’s popularity.

Great post, which hits the main point that president-elect Biden is many Republican’s dream candidate.

What about you? Do you think the election was fair and square?

What I believe is irrelevant.

They don’t want to expose themselves as the scumbags they really are.

Lincoln Project people just want to get paid. The whole thing is a grift meant to milk whichever party is willing to shell out. Bill Kristol’s ideology is show me the Benjamins, just like Rich Lowry at National Review.

National Republicans are desperate to avoid a floor fight in Congress over the certification of the Electoral College vote next month>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

And if they do not change their tunes, the RINOs can waive goodbye to the Senatorial feeding troughs with China where both Democrats and RINO Republicans like McConnell gather.

Why you say?

Do you think that Trump supporters will turn out oon election day in Georgia if they see that the Republicans will not fight on the floor of Congress;s joint session to certify electors?

They will be staying home, and tha last great slop trough of the McConnell Senate will come to an end.

Count on it.

Hmmm...sounds like the DIMS talking points written up for the Turtle...

Of course, this article is from the Hill...

I believe that the Turtle stands a better chance of holding the Senate if he fights for Trump...

But, the Turtle has his paymasters...

It could be the Turtle does not want anyone examining voting machines in Louisville...?

There really is little difference between establishment Repubicans and Democrats. They are part of the same swamp.

Trump threatens that. So they have decided to unite on this and help keep a duly re-elected president from serving his second term. I'm sure that Trump has something up his sleeve however. Otherwise, he would have checked out by now and would have told the GOP he doesn't need any more of this crap and that they can now sleep in the bed they made (and who could blame him).
