McCarthy Says ‘We’re In a Very Bad Place Right Now’ Thanks to ‘Crazy Members Led By Gaetz’
Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) did not mince words about the state of the House Republican conference on Friday, saying it's in a tough spot at the moment.
You're viewing a single thread.
“You know how you make America great again?” Graham asked in 2015. “Tell Donald Trump to go to hell.” Then, on the same day Trump essentially clinched the GOP nomination, the senator predicted, “If we nominate Trump, we will get destroyed.......and we will deserve it.”
And he was right. Trump has completely destroyed the Republican Party. The house that Reagan and his 11th commandment built is now a structure fire.
I just want to take this time to say fuck Reagan.
fuck Reagan.
What’s wrong with his horse? I’m no Reagan-stan but we don’t need to be taking shots at his horse!
/s for those need it
I second that fuck. Can we get a burn in hell?
If the Christian god exists, Reagan is almost certainly in hell.
He's literally the devil.
Trump has completely destroyed the Republican Party.
Not only has he destroyed the Republican Party, he has inflicted significant damage to the very fabric of the United States. He has sown discourse discord, conflict, and division that could take decades to undo. How sad.
*discord. Discourse while sounding bad is just another word for discussion or debate.
Definitely. Writing without reviewing rarely yields a great sentence. Thanks.
Controversial opinion I don't think he did honestly. I think his damage was short term. He busted open a lot of bullshit and made it clear why we shouldn't be this way, and I think seeing voters in the last two elections has made that clear. We'll see if the momentum continues but Americans made it clear tbh, we ain't into it.

Also pretty much firing all diplomats and not rehiring or filling the positions with clowns like him. Destroying decades of soft power in a record span.

I admire your optimism.
Why? Trump damaged an already disgustingly broken system all he did was cause more incentive to change it.
Fox News destroyed the republican party. Trump is a result, not the cause.
More than one thing can be true at once. Their own gerrymandering played a huge role as well by creating hundreds of districts that are so safe that the real election is the primary, not the general, so the way you win is by always tacking to the right and being more and more performatively batshit crazy.
True. I live in Ohio, the gerrymandering here is a wet dream.
The very same Lindsay Graham perpetually fighting to be first in line to lick Trump’s boot like the simpering, unctuous worm he is?
The same.
To be fair, he had a lot of help.
