It's about partisanship, which is just group identity at its heart.

Every thought, concept, talking point, conceptualization, etc. has to flow from that group identity.

That's why people who based their personal philosophies and preferred policies on internal things like values and ideas find it so strange.


This is precisely why I remind these people of the bump stock shite from 2018. It isn't about bump stocks. It's about reminding them of who they really are and what they really support.

When Gaetz went after McCarthy, MAGA was warned what would happen, didnt listen.


So please tell me, what would have turned out different if McCarthy had remained as Speaker? Only thing I could think of is that the aid package would have been over 100B to Ukraine. The bi partisan border bill which would have codified having 10's of millions of illegals to continue yearly entrance to the U.S. and limited any future president's power on securing the border would have passed first time. What else?

The irony is the defectors are the same group who helped the DEMs install a weaker SOH
And just to add tot he irony, Trump backed McCarthy.

A few people had that light lit with the Iran stuff.

All of this non-interventionist NPC talk went out the window when eye-ran and some brown Muslims attacked. It showed some true colors.

All of this anti-protest stuff is exposing a lot, too.

Explaining the difference in hypocrisy and whataboutism is getting tiresome

You can count the number of elected Republicans worth a shite on zero hands or fingers.

I haven't been following the story but that's not shocking.

It's worse.

They mock us and openly hate us. Our federal government in near-entirety is making a strong push towards Etatism.

Lol what process? Republicans are basically trying to get to the next news cycle unscathed at this point.

I seem to remember republicans backing Johnson while democrats voted for Jeffries…Jeffries, Jeffries. Did that change?

Put the motion in MTG, force Johnson to get saved by the other party. Make it very clear to his constituents the only reason he is speaker. Vote his arse out of office this year.

Or perhaps a democrat-led vote? That Gaetz and a few others joined in on?

Only one party voted in unison to permit the opportunity for a weaker SOH...with the small population of the MAGA splinter group.

Exactly. Just lobbing a little bomb to sow more division among Republicans.

I find it more than hilarious people accuse Johnson of not being a leader, but Trump of being one.

You folks are here because you dont heed warnings. Yall were warned.
