I'm a Democrat who infiltrated the Republicans. Why? Because we need 2 healthy parties

With the threat of authoritarianism looming and a hostile faction threatening a democratic nation, it is incumbent upon us to support and coordinate with the insurgency.

I’m not talking about Ukraine. I am describing Democrats supporting Republican refugees within the insurgency of the GOP, people who belonged to the party of Reagan and now find themselves impressed into the party of Trump.

That’s why I traveled to Washington, D.C., to take part in the Principles First conference, a gathering of moderate Republicans many of whom are actively working to restore the GOP and cleanse it of Trumpism.

I don’t root for GOP to self-destruct Some of my Democratic colleagues might wonder why this was a worthwhile endeavor for someone working to elect Democrats?

Shouldn’t I be enjoying the implosion of the GOP?

No. Our democracy works best with a two-party system, in which both bodies operate in good faith for the best of our nation. One-party dominance is not the answer. So while I work to elect Democrats, I also want to help eliminate extremists from the GOP.

We all know this has been going on for years.

But they're open about it now.

A "healthy" Republican party apparently is one that (of course) goes along with Democrat agenda items.

Because Democrats are good, and true, and decent, and salt of the earth! (when they're not enslaving, lynching, jabbing and masking you)

It’s the “good cop” narrative pretending that one-party rule isn’t their end-game. They just think Romney & Kristol will be easier to manage.

2 healthy parties, both working towards the same goal of flooding the country with foreigners to steal it from the citizens.

Democrats are the only ones who will miss Bush League Republicans.

Before you are allowed to vote I think everyone should need to get at least a passing grade in Civics. This idiot failed miserably.

I don’t see many reasons for the GOP to continue to exist. Blow it up and let the MAGA Party flourish.

Trumpism: belief in freedom, small government, strong military, defended borders, free market economics, pro-life, strong families..........all the things the Democrats hate.

To: All

Here is how this works:

A moderate Republican embraces the following:

1) Build the Wall
2) Drain the Swamp
3) America First In All Things
4) Pro Life
5) Pro 2nd Amendment.

He’s moderate because he allows exceptions for rape or incest. That’s it. NOTHING ELSE.

Someone who wants “Comprehensive Immigration Reform” INSTEAD of Build the Wall, is not a moderate. He’s a left wing Democrat.

Someone who believes the bureaucracy is a proper and powerful part of government is not a moderate as to Drain The Swamp. He is a Left Wing Democrat.

There. Defined. Don’t ever forget it.

Like all liberal Republicans this guy is all pleased with himself over joining something he thinks is new. I've got news for him. His ilk, liberals out to destroy Republican and conservative organizations are as old as human civilization, easy to spot, and easy to defeat. And every election cycle some wet behind the ears reporter thinks they have discovered this "new" trend and writes a huge feature piece on these pathetic clowns (the latest thing!). Its as predictable as the rising and setting sun.

A mirror image of the liars and idiots who’ve taken over “Q anon”.

Everything must fit his beliefs. Never mind facts, reality.
