"SNIP.....

A handful of Donald Trump campaign alumni have formed a new group to try to unseat the 10 Republican House members who crossed party lines to vote to impeach the former president earlier this year, Axios reports.

America Strong PAC officially formed early this month. The super PAC’s website pledges to “remove the ten pretenders,” and features a 30-second ad-style video going after Rep. Liz Cheney.

are not real police but take on a policing role. Makes them feel special and close to the 'Dear Leader'.

3. I was thinking more in terms of the "mob" or organized crime

and their enforcers. The GOP is now an extortion racket.

2. Cannibalism among the cultists

Don't interrupt their feeding frenzy.

4. They have a dess code, you know

5. Trumpies are the fake republicans

100% totally irrational and dimented trash heap of useless humans.
A disposable and discardable group that society should shun and shame into irrelevance.

Force the GOP to start over, from scratch.

Let's see if they could even agree on some basic organizing prinicple..... I seriously doubt they are capable of even that.

6. Knock yourselves out.

Maybe you can get MAGAt/Trumpers to primary candidates, but the voters are another thing. Even if an average pool of republican voters support Trump, it's no more than 40%, meaning 60% would vote for their non-Trump incumbent. And with the non-Trump incumbent running in the general election, the MAGAt/Trumpers will likely sit it out. (They're not going to vote democratic for spite.)
