Trump has captured the Republican party – and that's great news for Biden/Barf for thee, but read with glee
The Guardian ^ | 28/2/21 | Robert Reich

Posted on 02/28/2021 11:45:19 PM PST by Eleutheria5

Donald Trump formally anoints himself the head of the Republican party at today’s Conservative Political Action Conference. Gilt-y: golden Trump statue pops up at rightwing CPAC summit Read more

The Grand Old Party, founded in 1854 in Ripon, Wisconsin, is now dead. What’s left is a dwindling number of elected officials who have stood up to Trump but are now being purged. Even Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell’s popularity has dropped 29 points among Kentucky Republicans since he broke with Trump.

In its place is the Trump party, whose major goal is to advance Trump’s big lie that the 2020 election was stolen from him. Its agenda is to exact vengeance on Republicans who didn’t or won’t support the lie or who voted to impeach or convict Trump for inciting the violence that the lie generated, and to keep attention focused on the former president’s grievances.

As the Trump party takes over the GOP, anti-Trump Republicans are abandoning the party in droves – thereby weakening it for general elections while simultaneously strengthening Trump’s hand inside it.

It is great news for Democrats and Joe Biden.

Democrats couldn’t hope for a more perfect foil – a defeated one-term president who never cracked 47% of the popular vote, left office with just 39% approval and is now hovering at an abysmal 34%, whom most Americans dislike or loathe, and a majority believe incited an insurrection against the United States.

The gift will keep giving. Courtesy of the supreme court, Trump’s tax returns will soon be raked across America like barnyard manure. Expect more of his shady business dealings to be exposed – more payoffs, cheats and cons – as well as civil and criminal prosecutions.

Gaslighting is as evil as it is rude.

No, shamefully, a private citizen can't expect privacy from government corruption and collusion anymore.

You actually posted something from the guardian written by a midget communist what did you expect him to say? That he was amazed by Trumps speech?

In all candor: a country without free and fair elections - where the people can’t choose its own leaders - *that* is a dysfunctional country.

Wishing the U.S all the best, forever. But please remember: stones & glass houses.

They must, if they told the truth, no one would ever elect them

The jury might still be out on that comment. The level of idiocy or insanity the left has consumed, but thinks the right possesses, and the ultimate consequences of that scenario, is still a bit of a mystery.

To quote the Prophet Elisha in Second Kings 6:16 “Fear not: for they that be with us, are more than they that be with them”. We know who wins in the end. What happens between now and the end, is a really good question.

“Robert Reichssshhhh came up short in his bid for governor of Massachusetts!” — epic announcement by Rush Limbaugh after Reich lost in the 2002 Democrat primary. LMAO.

Reich is blinded by his hatred. If he seriously thinks we’re going to clutch our pearls at left-wing tax show trials, he’s delusional.

We understand the selective application of ‘the law’. The goons and ‘elites’ of the left have used that tactic against our side for decades.

Reich and his commie ‘elite’ friends - sitting in their mansions - thought they could be totalitarian thug heroes of the working class... Instead they’re the goats. That’s where the real hatred of Trump comes from...what they’re not and never will be...

Absolutely CORRECT. = Reich is an EXPERT at SELF-DELUSION & at being what Louisiana law calls: “A common FOOL in the public’s view.”

It’s good for a laugh, tho. Somehow, I’m on their mailing list, so why not peak and see what’s their delusion du jour.

If they managed to steal an election for Joseph Stolen, they can probably cheat HUH’s way in, too, and cheat the mid-terms, too. What’s needed are big, burly, preferably martial arts proficient, poll watchers in every state of the union. The more the merrier. Three in every precinct at least. Knife-scarred faces preferred. Also push hard for a judge on location on election night, and some competent lawyers.

Supposedly, the tax returns are to be kept confidential for purposes of investigation and/or prosecution. But here’s Reich assuring us that the rule of law will be violated from the getgo. SDNY is now a cesspool.

BTW, you don’t spread manure in a barnyard, Yorky.

Are we really underwater?

Rumors of child’s face outside the globe: real or myth?

New cult worships child face. “He is the shaker of earth and the bringer of snow,” says Santa. “One day he will get me off this f@#$ing roof!”

About the Author: Robert B. Reich is the Clinton Administration former Secretary of Labor, has failed to be nominated for any office since then, local or federal, and presently represents the Lollypop Guild. He graduated law school, but never has been admitted to the bar, because the bouncers don’t believe he’s over 21 years of age, due to his stunted growth.
