Always former, with these guys, never any current. Just as spineless then as they are now.
This guy in particular though was vocal in his criticism of Trump while he was in office. Not saying you’re wrong in general just in this case this guy did bring the heat compared to his compatriots
Those who speak out often get voted out.
Having a moral compass is route one to becoming a former Republican
trump is a useful moron, to them. he’s easily manipulated and brings an enormous, and apparently unshakeable support base. if they still have political (or even personal) goals or aspirations, why would they shoot themselves in the foot by denouncing him?
Yeah I think trump plays in the vices of both legislators and his voters. He acts as a big gateway for whatever bullshit. Mary trump called him out some time ago, he’s dumb, cruel, easy to manipulate, and he’s always been a popular useful idiot. It is not dumb luck pushing him upward, he’s surrounded by incredibly scary people.
Well who else’s fault was it going to be? And they didn’t “contribute” they “caused”.
Contribute would seem to suggest that have they not backed him and given support he would have somehow still become president. Which isn’t the case because he wouldn’t have done.
I’ve been calling Trump the symptom and not the problem since 2016. He is the direct result of the decades of GOP rhetoric. They’ve always been building toward a demagogue since Regan.
I’d move the pointer back to the Southern Strategy and Nixon I think, but otherwise I agree.
The elephant in the room that the press likes to ignore.
It is now for sure.
Hire Ted Patrick. Famous cult deprogrammer.
