‘We have to blow it up’: can never-Trumpers retake the Republican party?
Republicans who have refused to bend to Trump insist the GOP can be rebuilt – but if he wins, all bets are off
The former Wyoming congresswoman Liz Cheney “hopes to be able to rebuild” the Republican party after Donald Trump leaves the political stage. Mitt Romney, the retiring Utah senator and former presidential nominee, reportedly hopes so too.
Among other prominent Republicans who refuse to bow the knee, the former Maryland governor Larry Hogan is running for a US Senate seat in a party led by Trump but insists he can be part of a post-Trump GOP.
Michael Steele, the former Republican National Committee chair turned MSNBC host, advocated more dramatic action: “We have to blow this crazy-ass party up and have it regain its senses, or something else will be born out of it. There are only two options here. Hogan will be a key player in whatever happens. Liz Cheney, [former congressmen] Adam Kinzinger and Joe Walsh – all of us who have been pushed aside and fortunately were not infected with Maga, we will have something to say about what happens on 6 November.”

Why would they want to? They have all but taken over the democratic party. The US now has OG republicans and the new world fascist party.
The current Dem standce on immigration is wild.. not the wall is a weird idea.. no they now say trump is just ineffective in building it.

Republicans: "We absolutely will not allow a single bit of progress on this issue unless you give us a wall"
Democrats; "Fine you can have your wall if it means we can at least fix part of the problem now"
Seems like the wild position here are the assholes demanding a wall in order to allow action. They control the House. We have to change that.
Until Democrats stop using the threat of a Republican administration to extort our votes, they get to be held responsible for all the Republican legislation they help pass.
