The former head of the US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), Christopher Krebs, said that the Republican Party was in a “death spiral” owing to its allegiance to former President Donald Trump.
Mr Krebs, who famously contradicted Mr Trump’s claims about widespread voter fraud in the 2020 election before being terminated from his post last year, is a self-described lifelong member of the GOP. On Sunday, he spoke with CBS’s Face the Nation about his party and the former president’s ongoing efforts to sow distrust about US voting systems.
“This is a death spiral. They’ve lost control, and they don’t know how to rein it back in,” said Mr Krebs.
“I mean, it’s captured by the base, right?” he added of the party. GOP leader, Mr Krebs said, are “afraid to speak up, because they’re afraid the former president is gonna try to primary them. And the other piece is they’ve activated and lost control of their voting base. The people that’ve put them in power.”
While under the leadership of Mr Krebs in the days following the 2020 election, CISA released a statement refuting many of Mr Trump’s claims about the security of US voting systems and declared: “The November 3rd election was the most secure in American history.”

Is this from the same Krebs who didn’t see any foreign intrusion into the voting machines during the 2020 election?
This is fake news from Yahoo Sports?
What’s this got to do with sports?
Trump reinvigorates the party and gets more votes than any Republican candidate in history, and they call it a “death spiral”.
I wish I could disagree with you my FRiend.
I used to say, It can never happen here is happening here.
Now I say, It can never happen here has happened here, and half the Country thinks it’s a good idea.
I wonder if he’s kin to that Soviet woman that tried to kill OO7 with that poison blade in her shoe?
{yawn}
Not one of those base republicans
Fear.
But they are the one’s that are afraid.
Afraid of Trump? No.
His agenda? Hell to the yes.
They don’t like it when the lowly serfs point out that government isn’t working. They don’t like their elite gravy boat rocked.
The rats will peel off his support from as many as they can. Purple districts will be their target. Then the rinos in red districts. Those they’re able to win over will be exposed.
Has anyone else noticed an absolute spike in this kind of thing very recently, the “For their own good, the GOP needs to jettison MISTER Trump” kind of thing?
I see this as a coordinated campaign.
All these supposed know-it-alls, for some reason do a bypass
on Biden to address what they see as the real threat to the
nation, Trump.
As soon as you realize that, you also realize this guy is
a fool.
He not only stated Trump was lying about voting irregularities,
but he also said something else.
He stated the November 3rd election was the most secure in
the History of the United States.
I can see why no one is disturbed he no longer works where
he did.
Death spiral? That’s what a I thought when I left it in 2007.
That stupid party deserves to die, so Trump is doing a favor for all of the fools who keep insisting that we just need to vote for more republicans. They had the House, Senate, and presidency for two years, and they did practically nothing.

Does this nimrod have any idea how well Republicans did down ballot all across the country despite Trump’s loss? The current Lt. Governor of North Carolina is a prime example. The black Republican was outspent 10 to 1 and he still won! There were many many other races like that. The GOP PICKED UP seats in Congress! Very rarely done. Look it up.
Krebs served as Director of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency in the United States Department of Homeland Security from November 2018 to November 2020.
We were being hacked from March 2020 forward till after the "election".
SolarWinds hack may have been more damaging than previously thought

Translate.. They can't be controlled by the dupes we have in the republican party. The RINOs have lost control of the masses.
This is a BUREAUCRAT opining about ELECTIVE politics. They're losing their grip on who gets into elective positions (and then appointive positions) and they don't like it at all.
You are exactly right, Cotton.
If it means the GOP dies (actually, it’s already dead), and a new, truly Conservative party rises from the flames, that would be fine with me. It’s the only way I’ll ever vote again.
I would not even be bothered by pragmatic ways to fill up Gitmo with those bustards.
I caught a few minutes of this guy on deFace the nation on Sunday. He’s a propagandist spinning fairy tales now. It was a pathetic performance.
