You may feel terrible about being a member of the Republican Party because it’s the stupidest party in American politics until you remember that the Democrat Party exists – and no, the Libertarian Party is not actually a party; it’s the motley crew of pot-addled sophomores holding forth in the dorm suite common area at 2 a.m. of American politics.

".. the only way a party as stupid as the current establishment Republican Party can win is if it’s competing against a party as stupid as the current Democrat Party."
They are so messed up the give lil’ davey hogg a platform. Maybe HE is the new masculine(?) face of the party. 😳
No question, the Republicans battle cry is, yes, We Suck, but the Democrats suck more, it’s a race to the bottom for the two political parties
Kurt, like many political commentators, lives in the moment - where memory is selective.
Not even a year ago the Dems looked to be on the brink of annihilating the political process and beginning of their dictatorial reign, floated on imperious edicts and a thoroughly corrupted election system.
They’ve been damaged, but I don’t see anything that can’t be won back quickly with a few fortuitous events and more election fraud.
It’s still very dicey.

A STUPID party with the views of the Democrats would be getting 25% in elections. The Democrats are FAR FROM STUPID, and probably a lot smarter than our side when it comes to politics.
All this tells me is, we need a wholesale replacement of our Con-gre$$.
I hate to give demonicRATS advice but all they have to do to learn how to get men to vote for them is ask other demonicRATS like Lisa Murkowski, Susan Collins and Mitch McConnell how they did it.
NEVER discount your ENEMY.
What are the chances of Dems taking back the House in the midterms?
As it stands today, I’d say it’s even money.
The national party may be in disarray.
But in local races in supposed Trump country where he won ninety percent of the counties, things are not as rosy.
But the GOP are still royally screwed up. And that is what a lot of us are concerned about. They need to fix themselves and stop worrying about the Democrats, the best advertisement for which are lazy, drunk old demented corrupt RINOs.
Because RINOs suck.
A huge exception is Illinois. The Republican politicians here are just fine with the Democrats in power. Most of them, anyway.
Agreed. And the path of least resistance for them going forward is to adopt the notion that their problem is a messaging issue, continue to move left lest the crazies overthrow the party leadership, and rely on the hive mind tendency of the party to keep anyone with a modicum of sense quiet and voting the party line
I have called myself a lot of derogatory names over the decades for mistakes, but calling myself a ‘republican’ is something I will never do, yuck.
Illinois, Washington, Oregon
All dominated politically by one or two Democrat controlled large cities.
Republicans are more or less permanently relegated to being the minority party.
They make peace with it and find ways to be relevant until the tide changes.
Democrats tie a bedsheet around the voter’s neck, and tell them that they can jump off the roof without injury because they are Superman. Republicans hand the voter an umbrella, and tell them that they can jump off the roof without injury because the umbrella will slow their fall. the voter is still going to jump off that roof with the same result in the end.
The Republican politicians here are just fine with the Democrats in power even when the democrats are the majority party.
...and The Republican politicians here are just fine with the Democrats in power even when the democrats are the minority party.
same difference
Trump has won some extremely important cases in terms of reining in the deep state, but they are flying under the radar here because of so much whining.
It's a bunch of stoned out, faggot-loving baby-killers, who say they want smaller government.
The Democrats are true artists and scientists—when it comes to stealing elections—all the way down to local elections.
They do this while bleating about “democracy” and “election integrity” and calling anyone who questions their cheating as an “election denier”.
