Romney, McConnell, Haley, Rubio, etc...what exactly do these people support? What policies are they striving to achieve?

You may disagree with them, but anyone can provide a long list of clear goals and policies that are being pushed by the likes of AOC, Bernie, Tlaib, Warnock, etc. You can also do the same for Trump.

But I honestly have no idea what Republicans even value anymore. They're soft on immigration, and we'll never see any of them take a stance on border control as strongly as Trump did. They have no idea what to do with healthcare. They support the trade deals instituted and maintained under Obama. They support continued military interventions overseas. They won't stand up and condemn the media, or do anything about Big Tech.

They have no clear agenda.

Nothing that's in my, or your, best interest.

S'why they're dying right now.

More money.

McTurtle couldn't care less if he's in the majority or minority, so long as he keeps getting taxpayer money stuffed up his arse through his Chicom wife.

My guess, is stability. Normalcy. Keeping wealth in the hands of the few, including themselves.

What big donors are still supporting them?

Oil & Gas and Arms manufacturing seem to be one of the few big industries that haven't been backing dems.

The Republicans have lost Big Banks and the financial sector.

swamp algae floats atop the murky waters, pushed around by the current.


You have to hand it to the Left, they have clear goals (which they SHOULD be ashamed of) and they pursue their goals in lockstep and relentlessly.

If the RNC cared about actual truth, they would have not signed off on the Senate Muh Rushan Clooshun propaganda report.

And they'd be protesting this stolen election.

They are controlled/simulated opposition. They have no foundations. They’re all in it together with the Democrats.

Sure they do. It's the same as Democrats. They want to keep their bread buttered.

To fund their special projects and to pad their own pockets. Democrats in disguise.

No agenda except keeping their seat. Without a doubt, this is the most spineless class of republicans I’ve ever seen on the hill in my lifetime. Obama managed to get Obamacare passed, while we can’t even stop them from impeaching our president...twice.

As always tax cuts for rich people and a favorable regulatory environment for corporations. Nothing has changed about this 40 year mission.
