Why I Think The Republican Party WILL NOT Regain A Majority In 2022
Its easy to look at Democrats and hate them for what they stand for. But, is the Republican Party any better? Spoiler ALERT! They Aren't.
I think the GOP will lose seats in congress & senate for 2022. I'm an average American & I love my country. Did I vote for & support Donald Trump? Yes. Did I support Republicans? Yes however, in the summer of 2020 my support for the party began dwindling. Now, I probably hate Republicans more than I hate The Democrats. Regardless if you support Democrats or not, at least they were a party that remained united & are relentless at pushing their agenda regardless of what you may think of that agenda. At Least the Democrats pretend they care about their voters & not just flat out ignore them like the GOP does. At least the Democrats are not afraid of bending the rules (& sometimes breaking them). At least the Democrats were not afraid to take the fight to their opponents. Republicans were (& still are) a massive ‘L’ in all those departments.
Republican voters should stop listening to Donald Trump, & stop donating & voting for the party of spineless cowards. They are expecting to have 2022 handed over to them because of the epic failures of the Biden Administration. I say We The People force the GOP candidates to earn those votes! They are in for a big surprise in 2022. They need to be delivered a reality check & get primaried if this bullsh*it keeps on going. This party is the party of Rhino cowards who will sell out 75 million voters & bend the knee at will. We need a 3rd party. The Republican Party is ‘FUBAR’ & here's a few examples of how bad this party actually is.
**NOTE** This article is written to criticize the Republican party. I have no particular bias towards any specific party. I hate both parties equally the same & I don't hold any particular exclusive support for a particular party.
Let's start with the largest Hoax in history, Russia gate. The GOP fell asleep on it & they let it slip away. One thing that really pissed me off was - Lindsey Graham having subpoena power to force parties of interest to testify under oath. What did Lindsey do with this power he has had for over a year? He wrote letters to those parties inviting them to appear in front of the senate, they said no, so Lindsey Graham let it be. He never subpoenaed a single person. Stay Tuned!
Kevin McCarthy is all bark & no bite. He had no problem completely throwing Trump under the bus when Trump told people to “Peacefully & patriotically let your voices be heard”. But, when Maxine Waters goes to a protest & incites an actual insurrection by causing a drive by shooting at the National Guard, Kevin McCarthy didn't even denounce her publicly, let alone Impeach her. He talks a tough game, but never delivers anything. He's a Rhino.
While the GOP was busy having a b*tch fit over a few children's books being canceled, People were (& still are) being remanded and imprisoned for the small crime of ‘trespassing’ on January 6th. They are being beaten and thrown into solitary. The GOP has not said a single word. Instead they praised the justice system saying “see!? Our justice system works!” In wake of Derek Chauvins conviction (& rightfully so), while there are people who are in solitary confinement and will remain there until 2022 to see the judge over a TRESPASSING charge(!). Even Democrats Elizabeth Warren & Bernie Sanders spoke up about the mistreatment. But the GOP can't be bothered and completely abandoned the people who were willing to die for what they believed in.
Republicans are within 6 seats to retake the majority. You want to tell me that out of 218 representatives, Republicans can't find 6 Democrat Reps to convince to vote on their legislation? If they can't convince 6 Democrats to vote on their stuff, then they probably don't deserve to serve our country.
Republicans were not afraid to take on Trump, but they sh*t themselves the moment a Democrat calls them “racist”.
Republicans are the biggest cowards! Take Georgia for example. The GOP changed their voter laws, acted tough , & about 30 corporations signed a letter threatening to pull donations from the GOP, so the GOP instantly surrendered.
Whenever something does finally get through the house in bipartisan agreement, Mitch McConnell shuts it down in the senate. Turtle Boy Moscow Mitch is probably more out of touch with voters than Nancy Pelosi is. Has anyone ever seen that man smile?
Republicans leaked the fake story about “Putin putting bounties on American soldiers with the Taliban”. Who was it? Liz Cheney. Trump was getting ready to pull all troops out by the 4Th of July in 2020, until the withdrawal bill died in the house with a super majority bipartisan vote to keep the Troops in the middle east. A few days later, , the fake bounty story dropped.
You know your party is in trouble when the most effective and fearless representative in the party is Marjorie Taylor Greene. This is how she racked up 3.5 million in donations from actual people in the last 3 months & not from corporations. I know some MAGA people will say “what about Ted cruz, Rand Paul, Jim Jordan.etc? They aren't cowards.” Yes they are. Don't be fooled about what you see on TV. That is all political theater. Jim Jordan for example takes donations from Facebook & Twitter. The section 230 reform hearings in the congressional committee have been going on since October with Jim Jordan being on the panel.
There are some GOP members (& future candidates) who are very religious. Now I'm not going to get between people and their faith in god. But, most of them have broken the number one rule which is- you NEVER mix politics with religion! I have seen many GOP officials and voters speak up and attack other GOP people because of their sexuality. Richard Grenell, former Trump ambassador & acting Director of National intelligence, even got attacked by people who are running for public office as Republican. Aren’t “All men created equal”? I'm not an advocate for LGBTQ , but what I am an advocate for is judging people by their character and not by which gender they’re attracted to or what skin color they have. For GOP candidates to publicly bash and smear LGBTQ republicans for their sexuality isn’t just wrong, it's also ammo to the opposing party would love to use it in a campaign ad to make it look like all GOP members are anti-LGBTQ
The Republican Party either needs to change, or ‘We the people’ need to form a 3rd party. The Republican party does not care about this country or the people who elect them. They only care about having endless wars and profiting off of the Military Industrial Complex. This party needs to be held accountable for their incompetence. Regaining the majority may sound nice until you start recalling the GOP majority in the house & senate in 2016. What did they accomplish? If people don't hold their party accountable , don’t expect anything to happen if the GOP regains the majority.
The enemies in our own party are far worse than those external. Atleast with a progessive you know the bullshit you're getting
Have you looked into the Libertarian Party lately? I'm not even from the US but seeing as they wlll now most likely have Dave Smith running for president, I would totally consider them if I were to vote (not sure if they also run for Congressional elections though). Either way check out Joe Rogan's latest episode if you don't know who Dave is. That's a leader your country fucking deserves!
