They are constantly playing defense and playing the game with democrats. If your labeled a racist, white supremacist, xenophobe republicans repeatedly apologize for the attack, they denounce whatever it is they are accused of (Trump had a bad habit of this ) and show no spine or back bone. Then you have our leaders go out and say dumb shite like we can't be associated with people who are associated with those things like a no spine loser cuck. I hate this party and will NEVER DONATE A DIME to them. Leaders go on offense. Leaders do the attacking. The republican party is fking worthless and unfortunately the tyrants on the other side make the vote for the worthless useless idiots and easy choice but I cant stand the two party system where we are forced to either vote for a cuck or vote for a tyrant.

Kinda agree but what is the alternative. Feel like Mitch has to go, not to mention the Murkowskis, Romneys and the other RINOS. The party has to change maybe some pit bull blood.

Spot on good sir. Not sure why anyone would gravitate towards them. They are like weak cuckolds.

Dems always project strength. Even when not actually strong.

These people undermined the entire Trump presidency and he didn't do himself many favors by hiring people that are activley hunting down conservatives like Christopher Wray is and throwing them in jail for sedition and sicking the FBI on anyone whose Geo data location was near the capital on J6. The republican party just doesn't want to win. I'm convinced of this.

They want to win and they love power and will hang their own grandma to do it and chop off theirs sons nuts if it can gain votes. Got to respect them. The republican party at this point just looks like a bunch of useless losers.

Republicans spend too much effort saying no to bad ideas and not nearly enough effort pushing for good ideas. I understand that the goal of “conservatives” is to “conserve”, but when the status quo is very obviously not working, it is not enough just to say no to ideas that would make that status quo worse. In order to conserve our nation and quality of life, conservatives must counter bad ideas with good ideas that improve the status quo rather than simply playing defense for a status quo which gets worse for average America every day.

When Democrats are in power, they do everything to maximize their power and minimize the influence of their Republican opposition. However, when Republicans are in power, they do everything to minimize their power and maximize the power of their Democrat opposition, now in the minority. Democrats in control, they maximize the Overton Window shift. When Republicans are in power, they do nothing to pull it back – they actually do everything possible to maintain the shift.

At least when somebody makes repeated accusations against you, challenge the accusations.

Marxists started calling Trump a racist after he won in 2016 (not before), and he might have pulled in Kanye for backup early on, but after that he let it go. As a result, he’s been demonized as a racist.

Marxists, like their Nazi cousins, believe that repeating a lie often enough makes people believe it’s true.

I feel the exact same way about the Republican Party as Winston Churchill felt about democracy.

It’s awful and the worst option, except for all of the other options.

I despise Republicans’ weakness and the GOPe bedrock roots with corporations, globalism, and the deep state security apparatuses (CIA, FBI, NSA, etc).

Republican politicians and most Republican voters have not yet figured out that Democrats don't just want to win, they want to wipe us off the face of the earth. They've spent years doing everything they can to make us conform to what they want and reducing our purchasing power is a big way they've been doing it.

Republicans are too chickenshit to fight fire with fire and play dirty back. If Republicans ever get power back, they need to do things like make ESG investing illegal (because it contradicts fiduciary duty), eliminate all race based shite everywhere (by making DEI departments illegal), and eliminate all entitlement programs. Welfare, food stamps, all of it. Do not financially incentivize the dregs of society to pop out 14 kids with 12 different fathers.

Unfortunately, Republican politicians are more worried about keeping their invitations to the DC cocktail parties, and most Republican voters are still in denial about who the Democrats really are and what they want to see happen to this country and all Republicans living in it.

I despise them also. Just hate the Left even more. Two sides of one coin.

RINOs run for the prestige, the Dems run for the power.

Can you imagine Schumer or Pelosi coming out a few weeks before election and complain they need better candidates like McConnell did?

No fricking way. And Schumer could, he had a zombie circus ape Marxist running in PA and loads of other freaks too. But Schumer would never do that; he would back 100% come hell or high water.

I admire the Democrats because they want to win.

MAGA/America First candidates are basically a different party within the GOP. That's who you need to vote for with the understanding that it's going to take time to wrestle power from the GOPe. The GOPe are actually democrats in large part.

Defense?

They are playing offense along with the Republicans against the people.

Trump did the same thing.

One of the complications in getting the Republican party to reflect its constituents is too many pretend the above is not the case, on both sides of the Rino/MAGA divide.

You are misreading things. The Republicans are no different than the Democrats. The vast majority of each are simps who just want to be elected and grift off of the system.

In the early 2000s, the Democrats, who had been dominated for the last 25 years, said the same things about their politicians that you are saying about the Republicans. The reason the Democrats, in 2005, and the Republicans in 2022, feel this way is that the electorate is punishing their respective parties. So the Dems, in 2005, and the Repubs, in 2022, read the electorate, and hunkered down.Right or wrong, they think that if they fought the way you want them to fight they would lose their seat at the table.

And many of them ARE fighting - when they can. There is no use spending your political capital when you know you can’t win. McConnell, for all the shite he takes from Trump and his acolytes, won the battle for SCOTUS with a very aggressive and risky parliamentarian move, as an example.

What guys like you have a hard time accepting is that the Democrats have convinced more voters than we have. You can cry about cheating all you want (I believe there is substantial cheating in these mail in vote states) but the Democrats STILL got far more votes for the Presidency than the Republicans did. The Republicans reversed that for the mid-terms, but not enough. That has to change. Until it does, wise politicians on the right are going to be risk averse.
