McCarthy
- Thread starter twenty02
- Start date
If this is true, we are all fooked.
Congress should function by negotiation and compromise. That is how democracy works. In this respect, the so-called RINOS are light-years ahead of the likes of Pelosi and Schumer. Anybody who truly wants to save Democracy should vote GOP and support McConnell and McCarthy.
Dems always, always stick together no matter what. Given that MAGA is a clear majority of the Republican Party it's the RINOs who have to bend the knee and vote with the rest of us. If not they're done.
Why do you refer to MAGA Republicans as “them”. Did you buy into the Democrat talking points about all the harm MAGA has done? The MAGA agenda has been pretty damn good. Energy, border, immigration, jobs, economy, food supply crime, was all better with the Trump administration.
Did you catch the Biden food scarcity regs that took effect a few days ago? That dumbass in the White House is doing to food what he did to energy. We are paying an awful price for not having Trump.

2020 a D from Ohio voted for a Republican for speaker. We'll see if any Rs vote D this time.
Need 4 parties. Maga. Old school pubs. Dems. Progressives
It’s a sad state when half the Republican Party thinks the sane ones are scum. That’s the difference .
The MAGA and the Progressives are identical. It is just nuts how often I hear progressives say that the D party needs to be like the R party and enforce discipline and keep everyone in line.
I don't want party discipline. People who put party uber alles are the probem.
Um...you've got nothing to worry about. He referred to NON-MAGA republicans as "them".
yeah, I know. Whenever a Democrat says they “ will work across the aisle“ we know it’s a load of BS. We shouldn’t be like the Democrats.
You've thrown the RINO term around a lot yourself.
It's stupid - there are many different opinions in both parties. Labeling someone a 'true' anything is stupid.
Seriously? You think Democrats don't vote in lockstep? Are you really a Martian?
I almost wish he would so non-MAGA Republicans can see how weak they really are. It might finally shut some of them up - hopefully a few on this board.
You think MAGA voters are all union workers? I don't. Maybe some, but hardly anywhere near a majority.
Biden has reached across the aisle his whole career. He’s had trouble with this Congress, but he’s gotten several bi partisan bills passed .
As someone who has voted Dem more than pub Biden has been a nightmare. He came out way way left. Anyone can pass fixing bridges. He has been a far cry from a unity politician
Old school Democrats (UMWA, UAW…) and rural voters that previously didn’t vote or families that were historically Democratic voters make up a good portion of what people label as MAGA
He also eulogized a former KKK leader and said bussing would lead to a 'racial jungle'.
He's reached across the aisle alright - right over to the racists.
I disagree. Old school union members still vote Democrat. My in-laws talk - who are all former union - talk like Republicans, but vote Democrat all the way.
We should start a DINOs group so we can insult those people like republicans do to anyone on their side that dares reach across the aisle on anything.
Jeffords.....kidding.
Bernie - who votes (or did) with R's on gun control issues quite frequently as do many many other red state/purple state Dems.
Bayh. Donnelly for recent Indiana examples.
Let's face it. Nearly every member of both parties is over 95% voting for their team's shit. Period. End of story. But every once in a while (like McCain) they blow something up that matters deeply to their own party.
Call them mavericks, shills, demagogues, whatever.
I think he tried to start with. But you have to admit he has gotten some Republicans to work with him on some things.
