In retrospect, wrote former GOP strategist Tim Miller for The Bulwark, it was inevitable that Republicans would go down this path.
"For about a decade and a half now the governing wing of the party has attempted every strategy imaginable to delay handing congressional leadership power to the group of lawmakers who better represent the desires of today’s GOP voters — the erstwhile renegades the late John McCain dubbed 'wacko birds,'" wrote Miller. "That group has grown from only a handful of troublemakers to a significant bloc of Congress that’s bolstered by an additional group of 'closet normals' who dress in wacko bird costumes for the retweets."
"Among the many lowlights of this long-running spectacle of appeasement: engaging in wildly irresponsible brinkmanship, granting plum committee assignments to kooks, submitting to power-sharing arrangements and hosting struggle sessions with the House Freedom Caucus, launching sham impeachment inquiries, holding umpty-nine explicitly political hearings over a deadly embassy attack, flying down to an extremely dated South Florida resort to take degrading pictures with a wannabe authoritarian, defending a drag queen fabulist in their ranks, and, most egregiously, agreeing to be complicit in an attempt to overthrow our democracy to soothe the bruised ego of the man-baby-in-chief," Miller continued.

"So long as the Republican leaders kept giving inch after inch after inch on the Fox outrage du jour, they could avoid an intraparty coup and retain power — until some glorious day in the future when sanity would return and their torment at the hands of these nutjobs would be over," Miller wrote. "Eventually you run out of road."

Jeb Bush campaign leader?
You may have found one of the keystone infiltrators.
This guy has been fighting GOP voters for over 20 years.
“Who is the drag queen he mentions?”
He linked to a story on Santos.
That Miller was gay is no surprise.
The Gay Mafia only cares about one thing and will do anything to promote their lifestyle.
Mark Levin’s squeaky, whiny, irritating voice is somewhere between Ted Cruz, Bugs bunny, and Mr. Bill. Can’t listen to it for long but he ranges from brilliant to psycho.
Never could figure out how he got into radio. Bongino has a voice for late night smooth jazz, though.
Just what is an “ex-Republican”? Can we say democrat?
The GOP should fire every single one of the “consultants” they all turn out to be Alt Left Democrats in disguise
Isn’t that what McCain called Tea Partiers?
Hey Tim, Cope!
Republicans - We Suck Less.
Yeah, that’ll really fire up the base....NOT!
‘wacko birds,’...fits the writer to a tee.
Schmidt voted for Obama over his own candidate.
Well they blew the horns
And the walls came down
They'd all been warned
And the walls came down
They stood there laughing
They're not laughing anymore
The walls came down

“Isn’t that what McCain called Tea Partiers?”
Yes. And Tim Miller worked for the McCain campaign. So they’re of the same ideological mindset.
Halting illegal immigration is wacko.
Repealing Obamacare is wacko.
Overturning Roe vs Wade is wacko
Spending less than you take in, and paying down debt is wacko
Not brining in angry, murderous muslim refugees is wacko
Staying out of foreign entanglements is wacko
Manufacturing goods in America is wacko
Drilling for oil in America rather than importing it is wacko
And on, and on.
That road is no longer viable; it is submerged under a flood of socialist poison being pumped into American civics by Rats and Rinos. America is choosing sides in a fight for a return to reality in our governance.
Isn't McCain gone?
Apparently not.
Why hasn’t anyone properly thanked Nancy Pelosi and the democrats for pursuing McCarthy?
