The “tribe” I associate with calls one party the stupid party and the other party the evil party. Guess which is which.

When I want to know what’s really going on I always turn to sources like “Liberal Patriot” who of course could be totally trusted on what actions best conservatively conserve conservatism.

[Trump’s] willingness to use and abuse the levers of government to his own benefit is anathema to principled conservatism.

Sounds legit! True conservatives should always roll over to the Deep State, and when they do have a majority make sure to cement in place all of progressives’ abuses instead of rolling anything back or retaliating in kind.

With good advice like that should be smooth sailing for True Conservatives!

Re: (1) – This is interesting commentary on how the Trump era Republican and Democratic parties have flipped on voter engagement and the utility of high-turn out elections.

For most of the 2000s, Republicans have done very well in Congressional elections, especially in off years, while Democrats have been much more competitive in presidential elections. If this analysis is correct, that may be about to flip.

Add that dynamic to the backlash to Trump among Democrats, and the next few years could be very rough indeed for the GOP.

The Trump Government has thrived on radical moves so it is no surprise there will be a reaction. If, and it’s a very big and hardly likely if, the Republicans lose these elections, that’s just democracy in action.

Nice of you to pretend ballot security is not an issue.

You can’t complain if people compete to win elections. The Trump Government has thrived on radical moves so it is no surprise there will be a reaction.
If, and it’s a very big and hardly likely if, the Republicans lose these elections, that’s just democracy in action.
Choosing Cabinet members from a House with a very thin majority always had a risk.

Voters may well look at Tariffs, DOGE cuts, Signal, inflation and markets drifting down and wonder if a House placing limits on Trump and his EOs might be a good idea.

You might not agree but it is hardly surprising, and the US is still a democracy.

Exactly.
