The Republican Agenda 2021 and Forward

Why is that every nut job who wishes someone dead of differing political thought calls them "nazi"?

Are we really that determined to lower the bar on who's a nazi, to make actual incel asshole nazis feel better?

Bonus- for the obligatory "pedo" call out. Which makes you believe the writer probably had child porn playing while they sent that "gem".

Every time a republican makes an accusation, it’s actually a confession.
 
I think the reason the Republican party doesn’t give a shit about mental health has nothing to do with government spending or thinking you can bootstrap your way to mental health. The fact is they rely heavily on their voters being unhinged and removed from reality. These mass shootings are just a bonus so they can claim more guns and cops can stop them.
 


Facts. The Republican party and myths are holding us back at minimum or making us worse if they continue to succeed. Succeed is a misnomer there but not by their standards.
 
Many possible threads, but I'll put this here. Just heard that there is now a dress code at Trump rallies and they won't allow people in wearing Qanon or Proud Boy logos or related imagery. I think the people who attempt it should feel special because they can now include themselves among the high ranks of people Trump has thrown under the bus. Your purpose has been served and you are now bad for the brand.
 
Well, we’ve discovered another thing that can cause the GOP to kick one out of their party. You thought it was just refusing to support Trump? Nope, the other unforgivable sin in the GOP… is reasonable gun control.


Rep. Chris Jacobs, an Orchard Park Republican, said Friday that he was withdrawing as the GOP and Conservative candidate for Congress in the newly redrawn 23rd District, acknowledging that his newfound views on gun control place him at odds with the parties that endorsed him.
"This obviously arises out of last Friday, my remarks, statements on being receptive to gun controls," Jacobs said in an interview. "And since that time, every Republican elected (official) that had endorsed me withdrew their endorsement. Party officials that supported me withdrew, most of them, and those that were going to said they would not. And so obviously, this was not well received by the Republican base."

He’s from Orchard Park - the home of the Buffalo Bills. It is unbelievable to me that in the light of the terrorist attack in Bufffalo, the GOP is kicking him out for suggesting reasonable gun control measures supported by a large majority of Americans. He’s dropping out of politics because he dared suggest that we should care more about children than guns. This is today’s Republican Party. The party who supports killers instead of kids. I sure hope a Democrat gets elected in his district this time. We don’t need a gun fetishist representing Western NY. The leaders of the GOP have no shame and no conscience.

The Republican party is demented and hates most American people, not just half, way more than that.
 
The quiet part out loud,
Louie "the wise one" Gohmert said:
(Republicans) can’t even lie to Congress or lie to an FBI agent or they’re coming after you. They’re going to bury you. They’re going to put you in the D.C. jail and terrorize and torture you and not live up to the Constitution there.

Annnnd, if we commit crimes, they will prosecute us! Arrgh! Unfair!

Literally could not believe this when I saw it a couple hours ago. Pretty revealing how they don’t believe laws are for themselves, just for punishing those they don’t like. Even though it was really stupid - even for a proven dumb guy with a name like Louie Gohmert - it’s an insight as to how they view themselves as immune because they are rich white guys. Same thing happened with Peter Navarro.
 
Sadly this won't happen. It's a solidly GOP district and whoever replaces him in the primary will win the general easily.
It wasn’t always that way in my (former) neck of the woods. I remember when Jack Kemp was the Republican member around there. He was a conservative when it came to economics, and a liberal on pretty much every social issue. If he wasn’t liberal on social issues, no way he would have won, since people in the area almost always voted for Democrats. It is sad to see how the culture has changed in the region. 😥

And it was just plain offensive how Bush Sr. treated Kemp when he made him head of HUD. Basically refused to fund anything for him, and undercut any of his reforms that would have actually been effective.

I didn’t agree with Kemp on economics, but if today’s Republicans were more like him, they probably would have done something about immigration, addressed some BLM concerns, controlled guns, and there’s no way the Jan 6 violence would have happened. Instead, the party left him behind to follow Newt Gingrich and that path led them directly to Trump.

NYS Republicans use to be reasonable and principled. I remember Pop's father was a lifelong Republican (although he voted overwhelmingly for Dems). He said that they (pols) always cared more about business than people. And as much as people hate Dubya, there were plenty of us that faulted the elder Bush for helping turn the GOP into a very, very shitty party. Pity that even he is looked upon as a RINO these days.

Bush Sr.’s cabinet was full of former Nixon folks. No surprises on how bad that turned out. And then dubya decided to bring a few of them back for his administration too. All of them should have been barred from federal jobs for life, but they kept putting them out there. It’s not a coincidence that both Bushes chose massive military campaigns in the Middle East… just look at their cabinets.
