    In case you were wondering what the de facto party leader thinks.

      Long-term? Cheney.

      Short-term, it's a tie...which makes sense, since the GOP is currently fractured.

      The GOP would be wise to really start supporting strong moderate conservatives. They'd win the MAGA vote by default, would win the traditional republican vote, would win the other segments (Cuban, Evangelical, etc), and would win over some independents and moderates, too.

      The Biden/Harris/Bernie/AOC/left/far-left's out there would have a HELL of a time competing against a strong moderate conservative. The problem is the primaries are set up to let the wackos bubble up to the top and get all the attention.

      Dude, you need to get out of the Beltway.

      Well I am moving to Minnesota this year! 😂

        The problem is we are focusing on personality, not policy.

        With personalities like this, it is a problem!

        At present these personalities outweigh any chance of a rational discussion of policy.

            A Republic congressman from IL, who has spoken against President Trump for quite a long time has a website. Interesting video on there.

            I dont know his district but I am sure the President Trump followers will try and vote him out during the primary.

                I never thought of her that way, but these days I suppose the impossible is possible.

                  @loki I was referring to Trump when I said the de facto party leader.

                  He apparently offered her support. As he has frequently over the last year. Contrast that with Cheney...

                    Are there explicit ANITFA sympathizers in Congress? (Genuinely don’t know)

                      Sure. But, however naively, they tend to think that Antifa are just young people who are against fascism and tend to disassociate the group from any violence.

                            But here’s some good news. Cheney keeps her leadership post, after a vote of 145-61 in the GOP conference.

                            It was a secret ballot.

                                    What I find telling is how Democrats suddenly are ready to disenfranchise voters.

                                      The only goal was to prevent the GOP from cleaving. It might have been a strategic master stroke. Very risky we will see.

                                        The GOP is morphing.

                                        If they have any sense, they'll follow Trump's lead on many of the issues that garnered him black, latino and working class white support.

                                        “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

                                        Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

                                          Which is crazier and more damaging? The idea that the Jews have a space laser or the idea that equality means equal outcomes?
