It’s time to face the music: the GOP is pretty much useless. Well, let’s rephrase that—it’s useless to us but incredibly valuable to the Democrats, who pull all the strings and call all the shots. Yet, some of us are still clinging to this idea of a magical “two-party” system in the United States. We’ve been conditioned to believe that even a RINO is somehow better than a Democrat. But let’s be real: that’s just playing into the Democrats’ hands. They want us to think that way because it keeps their well-orchestrated “two-party” charade alive and kicking. The truth is, the GOP establishment is no better than the Democrats. The day we wise up and start treating these Republican turncoats with the same fury and contempt we reserve for Democrats is the day we’ll start making real progress. Right now, sure, we get angry and raise some hell online, but deep down, we still treat these GOP traitors and do-nothings like annoying family members—we might grumble about them, but in the end, we let them back into the fold because it’s easier than finding replacements. Well, that needs to change, and Steve Bannon couldn’t be clearer about it. Even those Republican politicians you think are your friends? Yeah, most of them aren’t, and they hate Trump, too.
Steve hits the nail on the head. These turncoats are definitely not our friends—they’re our sworn enemies. It’s like they’re literally spitting in the faces of their voters by pushing through policies and bills that their base vehemently opposes... Sure, there may be a small handful of “good guys” who haven’t been tainted yet, but the overwhelming majority are in on the scheme.

The Republicans would like to go back to the days when Bob Michaels washed and waxed Tip O’Neil’s limousine.
No. He’s nearing retirement and is frozen in time like a bug in amber. For him Johnny Carson still cones on after the news and you can watch the 700 Club during the day.
Like the movie “Groundhog Day”, November 4, 1980 plays in a continuous loop. It’s as if history stopped with Ronald Reagan.
all of us in the tea party realized this this 12 years ago.
Wow. Does he have dementia, or is there something else keeping him from comprehending reality? And he still gets elected?
The thing is, the Republican party doesn’t belong to the RINOs. It was formed 170 years ago, before this current crop of traitors were even a bad dream, but over the years they’ve insinuated themselves into power and control.
One way or another, MAGA patriots need a party that represents them. It could either be a new party or a reformed Republican party. I lean towards the ladder, though I’m not beyond persuading. But it should be acknowledged that even if a new MAGA party were to spring up, these RINO’s aren’t going to just go away. They need to be defeated. I say kick them out of the Republican party and let THEM form their own party, with all the mis-steps and challenges that doing so would bring.
Then why does Trump come out and endorse turncoats, like Speaker Johnson after being sold out on aid to Ukraine and funding for more border crossing?
Yes, the PA GOP undermined Mastriano. Absolutely correct.
But it was Trump/Hannity that destroyed Kathy Barnett in favor of the leftist carpetbagger Dr Azz.
Trump also endorsed Speaker Johnson AFTER the Ukraine aid deal that included money for NGOs to bring more trespassers onto US soil.
So when these articles complaining about the GOP are posted and we hear mindless fools complain that they are anti-Trump, I laugh.
Some are as dirt as the rats
Decorum? I love the way Trump talks. He speaks like I do. He speaks my language.
I’m drawn to people who “lack decorum” like Trump does. Maybe because I’m that way, and people have asked me if I’m from New York. I am, but from the opposite side of the state from NYC.
“Lacking decorum” is better than being a mealy- mouthed back-stabbing hypocrite.
