What Republicans should learn from the election is...

[Kablooie]

if you plan to destroy our form of government and eliminate rights granted in the past ... don't publicize it and make them your primary campaign issues.

Hopefully they won't learn this.

1. Double down

They will double down and say they lost because of cheating

[Aristus]

3. This is why so many stupid people gravitate to the repukes.

One has to be colossally moronic to believe that if your candidate wins, it was a fair election, and if they lose, the other guys cheated.

2. And especially don't gleefully take away a woman's control over her own body a handful of months

before an election pissing them off to no end and energizing gen z who still want to have sex without fear of dying.

[Aristus]

4. Don't forget all the smarmy posturing the toxics did over

a woman’s “place”; the whole barefoot, pregnant, and in the kitchen horseshit. I wanted to say that I couldn’t believe how stupid they were to say such things out loud and on camera in an election season. But yeah, I actually DO believe they’re that stupid.

[MLAA]

6. Exactly! Especially when survey data told them the majority, by a good margin, supported

Women’s right to choose.

8. I grew up in the 50's and 60's, and I can still remember my Grandpa's Republican Party

My Grandpa loved Eisenhower by the way. Thankfully my Grandpa died in 1981 so he never saw what Reagan, Gingrich, both Bushes, and Chump have done to destroy the Party.

I don't remember hearing any of that talk about women's place is being barefoot and pregnant, cooking her man's dinner, etc. We never heard any of that growing up, and I find it hard to believe that anyone would say those things or think them. The loony MAGAts are saying them now because they don't have anything else. They somehow got the idea that Archie Bunker is the ideal American man.

9. Believe it or not, a lot of that appeared in the 'womens' magazines

of the time, which were, of course, all written, edited, and published by men.

10. Our national freeway system was developed under Eisenhower.

I'm sure I would disagree with a lot of the Eisenhower Republican policies but they weren't about destroying the government so the super rich could hoard everything for themselves at the expense of everyone else.

5. I think that the message that hurts them the most is that they are not the overwhelming

majority of voters that they thought they were.

[gratuitous]

7. Don't create a second inferior class of citizens while they can still vote

Oh, and you might try having a platform that doesn't consist solely of looting Social Security and Medicare in order to give the idle rich more money that they won't spend.
