15. The current version of the GOP is beyond
Wed Jun 21, 2023, 07:14 PM

any measure of redemption. They are locked into supporting a completely out of control narcissist oaf that has them in a captivity of their own making. They can’t even (for the most part) win their primaries because the cult will vote them out. Unfortunately there are a number of states and congressional districts where it doesn’t matter.

They can censure the Honorable Congressman all they want to satisfy their base, but it’s the lying blowhard that’s sitting under a mountain of indictments!
