“If I were fortunate enough to be elected Speaker of the House.”

Fortunate? That’s a touch job. But go for it.

What’s really funny is she is more conservative than Trump-and has been for ever. She has an ACA rating of 95% and actually wants to lower the debt -unlike Trump who was ready to push $4 trillion more in additional spending ($2 trillion in COVID and $2 trillion in infrastructure). She’s always been pro-life-only been married once-and as far as I know-hasn’t been unfaithful.

In 2011 unaffiliated (non-religious) Americans pretty much remained unchangeg in their thinking that a politician could be privately immoral but still fulfill their public duties - around 60% thinking this way.

Catholics went from 45% to 55%. and mainline protestants went from 40% to 60%. However, 30% of white, evangelical protestants said that a politician could be privately immoral but still fulfill their public duties - going from the least - to the most. In other words - white, evangelical protestants USED TO hold politicians MOST morally accountable and now hold them LEAST accountable. They threw their morals overboard in 5 years.

So - what changed since 2011? Did we compromise our values or did we just realize that the Democrats were right in the 1990's - that it doesn't matter what someone does in their private life? Why the drastic change? I think we all know.

This is a man in the mirror moment. What are we willing to give up? Sell out for? Compromise? What are we willing to be a hypocrite for in order to win? It is amazing to me that those most willing to claim faith in 2011 are now willing to toss it for mammon.

Period. End of story. Should not even be a discussion about this.

Have fun voting for some anti Trump loser, who will get 5% of the Republican Primary vote in 2024.

You’ll go down some “rabbit hole” in 2024, but very few will be following you.

Cheney is a POS.

The only reason McCarthy is going to dump Liz Cheney is because he would be next if he doesn’t.

My Rep and Clock-boy Nemesis, Beth Van Duyne, served in the Trump admin and would have definitely signed on, but Mo Brooks did the list in December and she wasn’t sworn in until Jan 5th, the day before the Biden vote.

You forgot your sarcasm tag. When reading your comment I thought that Jeb! was trolling us.

I wonder if you could even " compromise" your misguided principles while the leftists were herding you onto a train for travel to a death camp.

The Grand Jury demanded President Clinton tell the truth.

He swore on the Bible he would.

He wasn’t impeached for having sex with Lewinski, He was impeached for being the biggest liar in the world.

(damn blue dress)

You push libtard arguments, I’m impressed you are still here.

The only good thing a Cheney is for: “Is warfare.”

If you like war then Cheney is your candidate.

I just hope members of Free Republic, don’t have their loved ones being killed and maimed because Liz Cheney wants to be a “tough guy,” on a foreign policy issue.

“The only reason McCarthy is going to dump Liz Cheney is because he would be next if he doesn’t.”

There are two trains running on parallel tracks. Cheney and her abject hatred of PDJT and MAGA. McCarthy and his more-than-questionable, and possibly corrupt, alliance with Luntz. If McCarthy’s train beats Liz’ train, he can take her out and be safe. Or so he thinks. I have a feeling both of them will be knocked off their high horses.

Should have never been in leadership to begin with...

Absolutely zero business in leadership to begin with

Politicians are 90% Amoral, narcissistic egomaniacs. If you are only going to elect the 10% who aren’t, you will lose 95% of the elections.

I’m not electing a mom, I’m electing people that wake up each day and put America first.

McCarthy was running ads towards when he was still the Majority in which he claimed he would repeal and replace Obamacare. He did nothing.
