Trump is 100% behind McCarthy so why won't MAGA GOP members vote for him?

The big lie is the MAGA Trump cult. If this were true, there would be no resistance to McCarthy.

What are we to make of this?

This is even MORE fun now.

Trying to extort for themselves greater influence than their numbers warrant. McCarthy is such a pussy that he will probably let them pull this shit every time something comes up they can hold hostage.

They used trump's base to get re-elected and elected first timers, now time to throw maga and trump in the trash as their usefulness is no longer needed.

LOL....There's a lot of truth to that, same as current RINOs still in office used the Tea Party to get elected.

Pepperidge Farms remembers.

Exactly. Anyone who thinks Trump ordered the Jan 6th rioters or that they would listen to him has always been wrong. They get their marching orders from themselves, not Trump. Kind of blows the whole Jan 6th kangaroo hearings and conclusion. They don't listen to Trump now and they would not have listened last Jan 6th.

The current perverted version of the GOP is not a creation of the party or Donald Trump. It's the creation of talk radio, which has trained its troops to think in one way only: Ideological purity at all times. Either/or. All or nothing. That's it. Now, that thought process has seeped into Congress.

Trump tapped into that, leveraged it, and grifted off it, but he can't control it.

It's been seeped into Congress.

What do you think it meant when congressman bent their knee to Lush Rimbaugh?

Republicans have been capitulating to their rabid base for about 20 to 30 years straight.

Trump was the ultimate result.

Now it's moving on to this crap show the world is witnessing.

There has long been a disconnect, though, between the establishment of the party and the talk radio crowd. Rush used to talk about it a lot, and while people like Hannity and Levin know to stay on the establishment's good side, they'll poke at them now and then too.

The establishment Republicans know that you can't run this country with simplistic, mindless purity, but the talk radio crowd doesn't. Talk radio is binary, so they are too. So not only these people filling with rage over the Left, they were also filling with rage over the establishment of the GOP.

Trump saw this, played the game with all the right terminology (his only core belief is himself, not a political ideology), and the talk radio crowd went fuckin' nuts. The fact that he behaves like a petulant child only made them love him more, I guess because they can relate.

Trump isn't always right.

Also, Dr. Oz the carpetbagger was a terrible candidate.

But...he also kept more promises as President that any Republican in my lifetime.

And gave us three conservative Supreme Court Justices.

Well, according to the USMB Republican-voting posters, there's no such thing as Establishment Republican

So who's wrong, you or them?

There are 20 hold outs out of 220 Republicans.

I'm reminded of the re-opening he announced. He announced a safe, sane, and level headed plan to re-open the nation with folks from the CDC. It was done at the White House. He announced it...then about a week later if memory serves, blobbers stormed the Michigan State House and voila...he was issuing tweets about Revolution.

About 10% of the blobbers are further to the right than the blob himself.

I guess that makes them independent thinkers. You didn't see that coming, did you?

I remember when Trump talked about getting vaccinated at a Trump rally as boos started being herd all around the stage.

Trump cult?

Really?

 

[Votto]

But the Left says it is a cult.

Don't tell me they are all a bunch of liars who are part of a DNC cult themselves where they all think the same thing.

Trying to extort for themselves greater influence than their numbers warrant. McCarthy is such a pussy that he will probably let them pull this shit every time something comes up they can hold hostage.

It might be better if that had a procedure they could actually use to hold things up. They could even give it a cool name and call it something like filibuster or something.

Shutdowns were done on the state and city level, Simp.
