The GOP needs to go

We’ve all become accustomed to a Republican Party that sides with its dumbest, laziest enemies. Maybe we should consider not doing that any more.

We’re on the road to Ripon — or at least we need to be.
In 1854, appalled by the Kansas-Nebraska Act and the Whig Party’s endless appetite for compromise with slavery and the Democratic Party, a group of activists met at a schoolhouse in Ripon, Wisconsin, to form a new political party that would actually stand for something. The new Republican Party ran its first presidential candidate, the explorer and army officer John C. Fremont, in 1856 under the slogan, "Free speech, free press, free men, free labor, free territory, and Fremont."
We're there again. The Republican Party is useless to the point of insult, a capitulationist entity that exists to overspend borrowed money and agree with Democrats, or at least not disagree with them too much.
We keep chasing out the elected officials who make it too obvious. But every effort to replace an Adam Kinzinger or a Liz Cheney just leads to the emergence of a new zombie who steps forward to take their places.

As we sail past $34 trillion in federal debt, heading inexorably to $50 trillion and watching the endless denunciation of “extremists” who propose to apply a little light medicine to the metastasizing cancer of federal spending, we need to consider the possibility that the party can't be saved. It should be replaced.

I can't argue. As much as the Left says they fear Mike Johnson as Speaker, I think deep down they know he is just an ongoing joke in a long line of bad jokes in the GOP.

There is no real opposition to the DNC.

The OP assumes all democrats need to go yesterday.

Their party is the most destructive political force on earth.

We don't need to compromise with them, we need to defeat them.

I'll agree with that but the Republicans need to grow a set

The entire thing has become ridiculous

 

[WinterBorn]

Political parties in general need to go.

I mean, feel free to gather and hold whatever pep rallies you need. But no more separate primaries. No more party lines and platforms.

 

[Rambunctious]

We need a MAGA party where members who intend to run under it swear to uphold the constitution and mean it and promise to put America first... not Iran... and China...

The FBI showed up with an arrest warrant at the home of the desultory bear-sprayer Gregory Yetman two years, 10 months, and three days after his alleged crime. The FBI and the Justice Department will not stop making new January 6 cases. They are committed to keeping the January 6 story front and center in the national narrative. They’re putting on a political show for the upcoming presidential elections, and we all know it.

Nationally, the party we have has no value and not much potential for developing any. We can do better, or our children are in deep trouble.

Meanwhile, a throng of Hamas supporters descended on the White House last week, climbing security fences and vandalizing the property. (See pictures of the damage here.) Like the Antifa and Black Lives Matter mobs that burned American cities in the summer of 2020, the people who blocked access to the White House and aggressively destroyed property around it last week needn’t worry that Attorney General Merrick Garland will consider them a significant target for prosecution. FBI raids are for the political right. The FBI is the sword and the shield of the Democratic Party, when it isn’t on loan to Planned Parenthood. The politicization of federal law enforcement is many things, but subtle is not one of them.

The Republican response to all of this was to block an effort by “extremist” members of the House GOP caucus, who tried to take away funding from the FBI’s planned new headquarters in Maryland. Seventy House Republicans voted to make sure the FBI gets its new building so that the agency has plenty of room to go on criminalizing conservative politics and opposition to abortion.

Or consider the effort of U.S. Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) to defund a federal mandate for every new car sold in the United States in a few years to come with a "kill switch" allowing remote shutdowns. Again, that effort failed in a Republican-majority House, with Republican votes.

At the mostly pointless Republican presidential debate that I didn't watch on Wednesday, candidate Vivek Ramaswamy opened with a blast at the Republican National Committee and its chairwoman, Ronna McDaniel — who chose dismal "mainstream" news anchors, mindless promoters of the pathetic Russia dossier hoax, to serve as the moderators for a conservative debate. It was the most obvious point that could possibly have been made, but no one else made it, and a good number of Republican grandees postured as having been offended by the argument.

We’ve all become accustomed to a Republican Party that sides with its dumbest, laziest enemies. We should consider not doing that any more, yes? So that maybe one major political party in the United States reliably represents views that are actually in the mainstream all over the country? Political parties are enshrined nowhere. They aren’t mentioned in the Constitution, and they aren't inevitable. There is no reason we cannot dispose of them when they stop working.

In state legislatures, Republicans still have elected officials who will fight for something, as red-state child mutilation bans have shown. Some of them can be part of the foundation of a new party. Nationally, the party we have has no value and not much potential for developing any. We can do better, or our children are in deep trouble.

I'll consider, as an alternative, a plan to save the Republican Party. But we’re running out of time.

Disagree.

10/7 is a good dividing line to start from in the entire world. It gave us clarity. Who are the monsters and who are not.

It was much more powerful than 1/6 ever could be. This is a world-wide phenomenon.

You go ahead and get started on that right away. We'll expect an update in about 20 years of your failing to accomplish your task.

 

[ColonelAngus]

It seems like we have 4 parties now.

DEMS
BIDEN CULT DEMS
PUBS
TRUMP MAGA PUBS

All are very different.

The only group worth a squirt of piss are TRUMP MAGA PUBS. The other 3 groups want America to fail and want as many perpetual wars as possible. They love the MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX, BIG PHARMA, SOCIAL MEDIA GIANTS, BIG BANKS. For some reason they hate any company that deals with FOSSIL FUELS.

Also, even if you are the GODFATHER OF THE EV....the left will hate you if you do not buy into all their BULLSHIT IDENTITY POLITICS.

Yup. I remember good ol' Newt Gingrich who ran on that promise. Once he gained political office, he of course, conveniently forgot all about it.

It'll never happen. Why wouldn't you support it?

Or are you just ankle snapping again?

If it will never happen, why did you appear to support term limits?

Congressional term limits violate the constitution. The founders made it that way for a reason.

 

[SassyIrishLass]

I can support anything you goddamn dumbass, doesn't mean it'll happen

You're fuckin annoying. I can support you choking on a dick but... well it might happen

There's no reason term limits are not in place, absolutely none

an amendment would pass.............the forefathers had no fucking idea what would happen

"The GOP needs to go"? Isn't that a terrorist threat? How does he radical left propose to achieve this political coup? Martial law? Maybe all those militant terrorists that Biden is letting into the country has something to do with it.
