========== A glimmer of hope of characte https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-election/two-republicans-voted-impeach-trump-jan-6-return-house-rcna179904 The two surviving GOP representatives who voted to impeach Trump will both return in January. So what could be worse than a 20 seat GOP majority in the House? A two seat majority! That would put the no-compromise, shut-it-down MAGA performers in charge of the country. Trump will order Johnson to go along, and he will comply. If Rick Scott is the Senate leader, he'll go along too. Hopefully Valadao and Newhouse will not drink that koolaid. #PS1gop ===== impact 17 impactrate 1 negative 0 posted 2024-11-12 ratio 6 react 2 reactrate 0 shares 1 sharesrate 0 sumclicks 1 title A glimmer of hope of characte topic gop wordrate 6 words 84 audclicks 1 epoch Lifetime ID 963384995836109 impress 12 matchedlinkclicks 1 pageid 100064938510484 pagename "Political scrapbook" posted "11/12/2024 18:58" rcs 2 reach 12 reactions 1 sharesimpress 1 title A glimmer of hope of characte type Links URL https://www.facebook.com/politicalscrapbooknet/posts/963384995836109 ========== Another big election on Nov https://apnews.com/article/senate-republicans-leadership-mcconnell-thune-cornyn-scott-d17b341874cb6627f1d75d7051feebe4 #PS1gop ===== comments 1 impact 1 impactrate 0 negative 0 posted 2024-11-03 ratio 10 react 1 reactrate 0 sharesrate 0 title Another big election on Nov topic gop wordrate 0 words 6 commentsimpress 1 epoch Lifetime ID 956034756571133 impress 10 pageid 100064938510484 pagename "Political scrapbook" posted "11/03/2024 05:10" rcs 1 reach 10 title Another big election on Nov type Links URL https://www.facebook.com/politicalscrapbooknet/posts/956034756571133 ========== Poor GOP doesn't know how to react to this turn of even They want Biden to stay on the ballot - https://apnews.com/article/biden-drops-out-ballot-access-legal-challenges-republicans-552701f91d4ae2e2ebef0596e2991841 And they want him resign immediately - https://www.voanews.com/a/after-biden-quits-presidential-race-trump-other-republicans-demand-he-resign/7708009.html But it's good practice. Talking out of both sides of your mouth is an essential skill to master if you want to rise in the Putinist-Trumpist-Dixiecrat GOP. The Democrats might not have planned the events of the last few days, but they might as well make the most of them by keeping the uncertainty going until the convention and then uniting with just a few simple messages. They could hardly say it better than Bryan - There are two ideas of government. There are those who believe that, if you will only legislate to make the well-to-do prosperous, their prosperity will leak through on those below. The Democratic idea, however, has been that if you legislate to make the masses prosperous, their prosperity will find its way up through every class which rests upon them. #PS1gop ===== impact 0 impactrate 0 negative 0 posted 2024-07-23 reactrate 0 sharesrate 0 title Poor GOP doesn't know how to react to this turn of even topic gop wordrate 0 words 164 epoch Lifetime ID 881779990663277 impress 5 pageid 100064938510484 pagename "Political scrapbook" posted "07/23/2024 12:33" reach 4 title Poor GOP doesn't know how to react to this turn of even type Links URL https://www.facebook.com/politicalscrapbooknet/posts/881779990663277 ========== Who cares if it's frivolous nonsense?

The church thinks it owns the state, the state thinks it owns the church, and the devil gets the last laugh, owning church and state with hardly any effort on his part.

Same reason as opposed to gun contr Its megadonors finance the GOP for one reason only - to protect and expand minority rule and the economic and political power of the ruling class. They don't usually say that in public - it's all nudge-nudge-wink-wink in private. So to get votes, they need single-issue constituencies that can be cheaply bought with big promises and occasional small treats. But they overplayed their hand and now the Susan B Anthonys are expecting the GOP to actually deliver on its implicit promise of a complete national ban on abortion, and threatening not to vote for GOP that waver. But reproductive rights motivate a lot of educated suburban voters that Trump needs to be sure of swing states - hence his waffling about states deciding the issue. If he's re-elected with a GOP Congress, he'll forget about that and sign whatever they pass - just as with taxes in 2017. The megadonors seem to tolerate Trump because they hope this is the last election they'll have to worry about - between the old rural bias in the Constitution, the ongoing installation of reactionary justices from the Federalist Society, and the installation of Heritage Foundation Project 2025 reactionary civil service, they don't expect to lose any more elections to the modern world. These Franz von Papens think they can manage Trump, and they might be right, but they might have more trouble with his successor - somebody like DeSantis who is more focused and able to take advantage of the holes that Trump has torn in the national fabric. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/04/16/opinion/arizona-abortion-supreme-court.html As for abortion, some GOP care deeply, and some just pretend, knowing that, as always, these laws are intended to apply to poor people, not the rich and powerful - who can always send their daughters to Denmark, just as their ancestors did. #PS1gop ===== impact 0 impactrate 0 negative 0 posted 2024-04-16 reactrate 0 sharesrate 0 title Why is the Putinist-Trumpist-Dixiecrat GOP is so opposed topic gop wordrate 0 words 317 epoch Lifetime ID 819625523545391 impress 25 pageid 100064938510484 pagename "Political scrapbook" posted "04/16/2024 09:15" reach 10 title Why is the Putinist-Trumpist-Dixiecrat GOP is so opposed to abortion?
