GOP Opposition Ends Greene's 'America First' Plan
Newser ^ | April 18, 2021 | Bob Cronin

There won't be an "America First" caucus in the US House after all. Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene let go of the idea in the face of quick, broad opposition from members of both parties to the group's apparent founding document. Greene then tried to put space between her and the platform, the Wall Street Journal reports, saying it was "a staff level draft proposal from an outside group that I hadn't read." The document called for adherence to "Anglo-Saxon political traditions," going so far as to endorse the use of European architecture in US infrastructure. Republican House leaders Kevin McCarthy and Liz Cheney were among those who denounced hate and nativism after Punchbowl posted the policy online. "The hatefulness of this statement is only surpassed by its ignorance of American history and values," Republican Rep. Ken Buck tweeted.

“...going so far as to endorse the use of European architecture in US infrastructure.”


I don’t know, I think sub-Saharan architecture would make a refreshing change to say airport buildings, etc.

I could not agree more. They are backstabbers.

The GOP is a fake party.

” Nativism “ is a problem for Kevin McCarthy ?

Just who does the GOPee leadership think lie under the white crosses in national cemeteries ?

Patriots and nativists are synonymous, are they not ?

So America First is repugnant to the “Republican Party”.

Anglo-Saxon law - the Magna Carta, the 1688 English Bill of Rights - is meaningless to the United States, right Kevin? Right Liz?

Our laws come from what...Zulu hereditary “laws”?

Anyone wasting time and money on these people are living in dreamland.

There’s a reason they’re getting stomped by the rabid Commies.

As I have said before the GOP must be completely burned to the ground in a raging white hot consuming fire.

Actions like this is precisely why I finally had enough and left that wortheless hoar of a party last January after over 3 decades.

So the GOP does not plan to fight against the Alinsky Left in Congress?

That means business as usual. We need a Trump re - election.

Would just point out that the article says that Greene herself is trying to distance herself from the platform. If she won’t even defend it, what do you expect? Of course it’s going to be DOA.

Its starting to look like McConnell is calling the shots. They want to use Trump for fund raising but have no intention of fighting the Alinskyites .

There is still time for a New Party.

****************

The GOP never fights for us. It does however fight against those within the party who do want to fight for worthwhile things.

Yes, how about schizo Kentucky. The same people who elected Rand, elected Bitch. They've got some 'splainin' to do.

I firmly believe that is our only hope. There are potentially 75+ million people who would join one.

We will never advance the conservative agenda but relying on the GOP. Just never going to happen.

I know now why trump called McConnell a stupid SOB last week.

McConnell is not going to let Trumps people in to win.McConnell would rather lose.

So what next pray tell?

we won’t have to wait long.

The next GOP Convention could prove interesting. So will CPAC.
