What’s the difference?

That ship sailed before Barry Goldwater!

Back to being simply obstructive but not obstreperous.

OK, RNC, your inability to publish your platform kinda makes it difficult to even consider a return to the Republican party.

If you can’t even compromise on a platform amongst yourselves, what makes you think we can trust you to compromise with the rest of Congress – to do your actual job?

So, quitting the cult, or getting ostracized by the others? The Republican Party has such has pretty much ceased to exist.

Too little, too late.

Sure. When the content doesn’t work for you, just repackage it. New branding should work. Until people figure out the content hasn’t changed and you have to rebrand again. Same old pattern. Again and again. But someone has to cater to the gullible and the suckers I guess.

I know a few.

So McCarthy will be Speaker of the House by an overwhelming vote. When will he be making his next pilgrimage to Mar-a-Largo to kneel before Trump and worship him? I don’t see much change.

Every once in a while, a proud and professed racist, bigot, misogynist, homophobe will announce he/she has found Jesus and empathy and compassion and intelligence and understanding. This is kinda like that.

You believe them, right?

Republicans have finally realized being hateful and stupid and on the attack 24/7 hasn’t worked for them, so a public rebranding is underway. It will be interesting to see what color lipstick they will attempt to put on that elephant.

Those died out with John McCain.

Governing is crossing the aisle, compromise, for the good of the people not for the good of politicians agendas!

What makes them think that is better?

I remember way back when Republicans were Americans.

… of course, only if it helps me get re-elected, or puts money in my pocket.

The “normal” Republican party of such people as Teddy Roosevelt, Wendel Wilke, Thomas Dewey, Dwight Eisenhower, and Charles Percy is long gone.

You are tainted with the right wing lying traitor filth of the last 6 years.

Trump-backed Arizona election loser Kari Lake cries ‘BS’ over results — and it badly backfires

“Wow! They just took the election away from Kari Lake,” he wrote. “It’s really bad out there.”

Lake, who had spent days stoking doubt in the vote-counting, responded to her defeat in a terse tweet.

“Arizonans know BS when they see it,” she wrote.

Trumpers are obvious BS.

‘He doesn’t have that power anymore’: George Conway says Trump no longer has GOP’s loyalty or fear

Would need one of those deprogrammers experienced with cults.

This is one of those “I’ll believe it when I see it moments.” Most MAGA Republicans are about as repentant as John Milton’s Satan in Paradise Lost.

Is “normal Republican” kind of like “normal psychopath”?

You don’t get a second chance once you’ve sold your soul to the devil.

“When you dance with the devil, the devil doesn’t change. The devil changes you.”

― Amanda Hocking

The last good Republican was Eisenhower. And he would be considered a RINO today.

This isn’t 2016 Trump. He’s lost his fastball. This isn’t going to end well. I’m just here waiting for the MAGA grifters cannibalizing each other.

They aren’t going back to “normal” in Arizona. They are going full MAGA with their election denial and plan to disrupt the entire state until THEIR candidates are put into office.

Too late. There’s no “normal” Republican party to go back to.

That’s why we need to carve a “T” in your forehead. You can take off the red hat, but let’s see you try to remove that! Thanks QT, great movie!

You can’t get that part back in the closet

“I don’t wanna be a Punk no more. I wanna be a Rude Boy, like my Dad.” – Sid and Nancy

Yeah, but – the GOP has demonstrated over & over (even before Orange Man) that they feel that they have an inherent right to be in power…

Republican voters aren’t doing that.

While you’re at it, tell the world how you never knew they was a Holocaust camp down the street and you always detested donny mcCarthy.

What is a “normal Republican” anyway? A John Bircher? A McCarthyite? A supporter of Adolph Hitler? A prohibitionist?

Republicans have NEVER been “normal.”

What is a “normal Republican?” A TEA Partier? A John Bircher? A McCarthyite? A Prohibitionist?
