"SNIP.....

Ron Brownstein: “Congressional Republicans may be engaged in the political equivalent of a murder-suicide by abetting Donald Trump’s claims that the election was stolen from him.”

“By reinforcing Trump’s baseless narrative that he actually won the vote, Republicans could be suffocating President-elect Joe Biden’s already-slim chances of attracting any meaningful support from rank-and-file Republican voters, which will make it much tougher for him to build bipartisan coalitions in Congress. But by supporting Trump’s claims—either overtly or through their silence—Republicans are simultaneously cementing his position as the dominant figure in the GOP, snuffing out their chances of reconsidering the course he has set for their party.”

2. It is the Republican Party that will die on the Trump hill. They will have no say

in their party such is their thirst for power.

3. No it is not. I am so tired of hearing this. There is no repercussion regardless how low the right

goes. None. As we argued here the last day with Biden moving forward. Nothing to see here, move on, voters do not care, Republicans do whatever and they are good to go. I am tired of hearing that there will eventually be repercussions for the GOP for out and out criminal behavior, not to mention the crude, vulgar, vile racist and misogynist behavior, because there is not ever anything done about it.

4. Republicans will have no power in their party for twenty years.

5. Republican, rw, racists, GOP, I do not care what you call them. They are all aligned and do what

ever the fuck they want without repercussions as graham fist bumps Harris on senate floor while trying to influence election, then stating will do everything to block anything Biden does in the next four years.

6. Well they are about to be fused together permanently.

[LizBeth]

7. And why not? GOP, "Republicans" as if there is a difference between their outliars, see they get to

be as outrageous as they want, and they get just more power and more control. Why treat them, or suggest there ever was or is a separation? They may have tippy toed into it, but they see it is nothing but more win to steal from the people and give to the rich.
