You have to keep selling the Big Lie, even though you all know it IS a big lie.
You have to keep embracing the crazies - MTG, Boebert, et al - despite knowing that they make your party look like a collection of lunatics.
You have to convince your voters that a ten-year-old child being forced to give birth to her rapist's baby is actually a good thing.
You have to promote the idea that children being massacred in their classrooms is a small price to pay for upholding the rights of "law-abiding citizens" who turn out to be not-so-law-abiding after-the-fact.
You have to explain how making it more difficult to vote is more in keeping with democracy than allowing all voices to be heard.
You have to explain why your fellow Republicans refuse to testify before the J-6 Committee if, as they claim, they did nothing illegal.
And now you have to explain why a man who attempted to overthrow the government he swore to protect should be re-elected in order to keep him from going to prison for deliberately failing to protect the government he attempted to overthrow.
Good luck with that - good luck with all of that.

(10,801 posts)They will do all that when they campaign because they're
speaking to those that believe everything you listed.
They only care about 2 things
1) Owning the libs
2) POWER!

(27,835 posts)... what Republican politicians want them to believe.
Not all GOP voters are Trump-humping MAGAts - and those who aren't won't be impressed with the inane/insane rhetoric the GOP is now being forced to spew.

(4,298 posts)Most poll show that 80-90% of Republicans still support Trump and Trump policies at all levels, local, state, and national.
It is horrifying that in battleground states these monsters will be elected to positions of power over our lives.
LET THAT SINK IN, PEOPLE WHO VOTE! Burning books more in favor than reading.

At least that is the truth down here in the deep south.

(6,115 posts)And then let's see how many of them support the orange fuck over a "rational" republican. I firmly believe that a majority of republicans want their party back but will go along and vote for the crazies because that's all the party offers.
They're all too cowardly to challenge the fuck. Are they ALL legally compromised? Why the hell are they so afraid of him? I understand fear or revenge but is there no one who would brave that? Or are they all criminally corrupt and afraid he'd expose them?

(51,267 posts)their voters are dumb and deplorable. They don't care about any of that. They're convinced Dems are causing high prices for gas and groceries.

They are criminal.
