Why would a Republican start standing up to Trump?

[Anonymous]

I am surprised a Republican would disagree with anything Trump says or does.

[DrPepper12]

They won't. They can't now. It's ride or die.

History will record their cowardice & shame. They'll be mentioned with Benedict Arnold, Chamberlain & Jim Jones

[loveslongnails]

Like my comment below, McClownal is a broken clock who's right twice a day for a minute. He doesn't care, he's not running again. He never liked Trump. He always knew he was a lunatic. Most of the GOP does, but they're scared of Musk putting up people against them in the primaries. That will change is Musk gets bankrupted, but not that much.

Go check out videos of "mega's change their minds in 60 seconds" it's often how long it takes when exposed to facts..

Mitch McConnell is a swampy Republican. His nose is so buried in the swamp it is brown. He hates Trump and he is going to retire soon so he is trying the screw him over as he goes out the door.

[DrPepper12]

Won't rehabilitate his reputation one whit

[exitseven]

@DrPepper12 no, he is a human turd. The poster child for Term Limits.

[Dargil]

If they disagree. Republicans are allowed to do that.

[DrPepper12]

Yeah right. 98% of the time it's "TY sir may I have another?'

[Dargil]

@DrPepper12 Weak. Your battery is getting low.

[Cubus]

There are very few Republicans that are against Trump. Maybe Lisa Murkowski, that's all.

[beefcakebradybatson]

HE IS about 100, so he likely figures he won't be reelected !!!

[masterSir]

R. I. N. O.! He's afraid he will get caught in the government funding scam.

[Syntosi]

AHAHAHAHA! The father of the modern Republican party is being called a "R. I. N. O"? Oh my, you are some ungrateful children for all that Mitch has done for you.

[masterSir]

@Syntosi like what? Cave on party plank issues?

[Syntosi]

Mitch McConnell is the living link between the modern GOP and Ronald Reagan.. literally.. as in he served Ronald Reagan. He is also the one man who shaped the entire party and made it into the MAGA you know it today. While he might hate Trump for ruining his (and I do mean that quite literally) party, you have to understand that Trump merely stepped into the shoes that Mitch McConnell already prepared.

[masterSir]

@Syntosi he shaped a whimpy roll over party after Reagon left. The turtle needs to go. He is part of the problem.

[Syntosi]

As much as I hate Mitch, he is a political genius. Trump is not. You are correct though, Mitch will exit politics (due to age) but he was not part of the problem. The Republicans are going to collapse going forward. Mitch was the beating heart of the party that kept everything running smoothly, then Trump came in and screwed it all up.

Trump has been able to push forward with his personality cult but none of that has helped the GOP itself. Once Trump is gone at the end of his 2nd term then it will all be over. The GOP will be finished as a political party.

[DrPepper12]

Every word @Syntosi said is true. EVERY. WORD.

[masterSir]

@Syntosi trump is doing what the base hired him to do. the turttle never did.

[Syntosi]

Trump is doing the voters bidding in much the same fashion as Mitch did, AKA not at all. Its just that you people only notice it in hindsight just like how you and everyone like you used to worship Mitch before his downfall.

[seeyounexttuesday]

Bitch McConnel needs to die already.

[loveslongnails]

Even a broken clock like McClownal is right twice a day for a minute each time. I can think of some Cheetos and a couch humper and fake Christian we could do without more so than Moscow Mitch, who's done anyway.

[seeyounexttuesday]

@loveslongnails yeah, but we've established you're not very bright. So most of the things you type are bullshit.

[loveslongnails]

"We" haven't established anything. LOL That's because you have no facts to back up anything you say, because you're an echo box, not very well read, and you understand no science whatsoever. So I'm waiting to hear your "wacko pedophile theory regurgitation", OR are you even capable of reiterating it in your own limited vocabulary?

[seeyounexttuesday]

@loveslongnails are you one of those male feminists?

[loveslongnails]

Are you capable of concentrating long enough to answer the question?

Are you ABLE, in your own words, to identity the "wacko pedophile theory" that you are so frightened of and are certain "not reality"?

You don't know what feminism is either, so discussing that would be a waste of my energy and time. Just try and concentrate on one little thing at a time, so stick to the question above.

[seeyounexttuesday]

@loveslongnails So that's a 'yes'. Not surprising.

[loveslongnails]

You are incoherent. You don't know what feminism means, or is, so again, try and stick on one simple subject. Let's try this again...

[seeyounexttuesday]

@loveslongnails did you wear a pussy hat back in 16? I'm thinking you did.

[loveslongnails]

Still can't answer the question can you? Dude, you don't "think" based on your responses, so saying "I'm thinking you did", or you're "thinking" whatever, has no meaning. Now go worship your Orange Cheeto, or read something about biology.

[seeyounexttuesday]

@loveslongnails what's the matter, soyboy? Your mom take away your xbox again today?

[loveslongnails]

Still can't answer the question can you? Dude, you don't "think" based on your responses, so saying "I'm thinking you did", or you're "thinking" whatever, has no meaning. Now go worship your Orange Cheeto, or read something about biology.

I repeated it because you're hard of seeing and reading and all that.

Try and think. Right now you're just at the ad hominem stage of your stunted development, but really... try and read some basic biology.

[seeyounexttuesday]

@loveslongnails you don’t have a question.

[loveslongnails]

You are no longer worth my time or energy.

[seeyounexttuesday]

@loveslongnails God, how will I ever recover?

[loveslongnails]

You could try reading some science instead of replying here.

[seeyounexttuesday]

@loveslongnails you mean what? like men can't be women science? Or fraudulent covid propaganda science?

[loveslongnails]

Basic biology. I gave you the link. You just enjoy limiting your understanding to comfortable terminology, but you really have no knowledge of that terminology. So again, bye.

[seeyounexttuesday]

@loveslongnails did you forget what thread you are on? There's not a single link on your replies.

[loveslongnails]

I'm not linking you to anything. A) You won't read any of it and B) You wouldn't understand it if you did, because it's science fact. Have the day you deserve.

[seeyounexttuesday]

@loveslongnails I always deserve a great one. You shitlibs think that’s some sort of smug retort.

[loveslongnails]

It is a great retort, and it's going to happen to you regardless. I just hope it happens sooner than later, but I don't control karma.

[seeyounexttuesday]

@loveslongnails good to hear. While I’m having good days you can continue your life of misery.

[loveslongnails]

When your karma comes, you'll gaslight it no doubt. I'll be watching you fall into fascism from a country far, far away. Have the karma you deserve.

[seeyounexttuesday]

@loveslongnails ah, you morons don’t even know what fascism is.

[loveslongnails]

You are apparently the one who doesn't, because your hero is doing everything a fascist does. Everything. So instead of just being a fool hardy echo puppet, why don't you READ the list and see what boxes he and Vance and all his cronies check off? Why don't you?

Powerful and continuing nationalism - For Trump, it's "Fake Christian Nationalism"
Disdain for human rights --- no question, esp alphabet people
Identification of enemies as a unifying cause --- pick a group
Rampant sexism
Controlled mass media - 100% ... don't EVEN argue about this. He threatens all news media that speak out against him, even when they have facts and evidence against him.
Obsession with national security -- his entire "fear" platform.
Religion and government intertwined -- obviously
Corporate power protected -- OBVIOUSLY !!
Labor power suppressed -- Again, union busting, any organized labor busting policies are supported by him
Disdain for intellectual and the arts --- "I love uneducated people"
Obsession with crime and punishment -- "No one is above the Law" ---- except him.
Rampant cronyism and corruption -- unqualified family members, friends, his entire cabinet.

Every sign is there. You are simply the one who doesn't know what it is, and can't recognize the signs. That's your choice. Calling someone else "a moron" when they demonstrate you're wrong just proves you're the one who doesn't understand. He's already sweeping LEGAL CITIZENS off the street - people who have paperwork, and trying to deport them OR actually doing it! You don't have to be executing people in the streets currently to be a fascist, but it will come.

[seeyounexttuesday]

@loveslongnails YAY! YOU SAID FASCIST! THATS TODAYS SECRET WORD! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[loveslongnails]

Keep joking about it, fool. It's at your doorstep, and you're cheering it on. Did you bother to read it? No, you didn't.

[seeyounexttuesday]

@loveslongnails I am laughing because you are a clown.

[loveslongnails]

You sir, are very familiar with clowns. You voted for two of them. Ok, I tried, but I'm trying to teach a pig to sing. Good bye.

[seeyounexttuesday]

@loveslongnails you tried and failed to convince someone of your bullshit. Psst. It’ll never work on rational people.
