unfortunately for too many GOP CONGRESS members its probably a tie they don't care about either
millions of everyday GOPers do though
so its inaccurate to group them all together

regardless this thread will probably be flushed

The PARTY is made up of individuals and they do not share the same views, just like democrats and GOPers so that doesn't really change anything.

Those everyday republicans are represented by their politicians. It's the politicians that I'm talking about. The actual political party.

Joe Republican may get to call and tweet and email his opinion but the politicians are still going to do certain things. And ignoring the insurrection and preventing actual US history being taught are 2 huge things that should be pinned instead of ignored.

I can understand that but at the same time our political parties have agendas and policy and laws that they push.

I'm not going to ignore all of the laws that have recently been passed by the Republican party restricting what can be taught regarding US history.

Libertarian - Left
The thing the GOP cares least about is the leftists opinion of them
Ahh yes. I too remember Trump and how he was famously indifferent of what left media said about him.

This sounds like one of those "When did you stop beating your wife?" kind of questions.

The answer, of course, is neither. The GOP cares about both.

Do you remember when Hillary called anyone supporting the GOP deplorables and subsequently lost the election?

“You know, to just be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump’s supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables. Right?” Clinton said.

So in Hillary’s mind 1/4 of America are deplorables?

I mean she really meant anyone who would vote for trump is deplorable

With your point being what exactly?
Franken (D) resigned immediately after questionable activities, while Hunter (R) continued to draw his salary after he was convicted of a crime.

I think what you’re terrified of is that the democratic administration is so bad that the “insurrection” will be taught in 50 years as a heroic stand of American patriots.

So your argument is the democratics are backstabbing traitors who will abandon their own in pursuit of power?

That’s not an endorsement

No, my argument is that D's do the right thing and that R's will allow their party to do anything to hold power.
