For those of us who have been trying to awaken people to the true nature of Republicans in the senate, aka “the Decepticons”, the latest self-admissions are very welcome.
According to interviews conducted by The Hill, several Republican senators are now saying they just cannot be members of the Republican Party if they are forced to represent the interests of the base voter. These very specifically named Republicans have always been members of the UniParty in DC; however, now they are saying “populism” amid the commonsense, America First voting base is not going to be acceptable.
The senators are openly warning that if putting American interests first is going to be demanded by the voters, these Republicans will just become Democrats. There is no reason for Americans to distrust the institutions the Republican senators support, and there will be no compromise or discussion.
What is making these Republican senators angrier is that who they consider to be intellectual and professional people are also demanding a more populist approach toward a government that represents the people. This is just not going to be allowed according to Lisa Murkowski, John Thune, John Cornyn and the other names outlined.
WASHINGTON DC – […] “We should be concerned about this as Republicans. I’m having more ‘rational Republicans’ coming up to me and saying, ‘I just don’t know how long I can stay in this party,’” said Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska). “Now our party is becoming known as a group of kind of extremist, populist over-the-top [people] where no one is taking us seriously anymore.
“You have people who felt some allegiance to the party that are now really questioning, ‘Why am I [in the party?]” she added. “I think it’s going to get even more interesting as we move closer to the elections and we start going through some of these primary debates.
[…] “There are an astonishing number of people in my state who believe the election was stolen,” said one Republican senator who requested anonymity to talk about the growing popularity of conservative conspiracy theories at home.
[…] Republican senators say they are alarmed at how many Republicans, including those with higher levels of education and income, buy the unsubstantiated claims that the last presidential election was stolen.
A second Republican senator who spoke with The Hill said the growing strength of radical populism “makes it a lot more difficult to govern, it makes it difficult to talk to constituents.”
“There are people who surprise me — I’m surprised they have those views. It’s amazing to me the number of people, the kind of people who think the election was stolen,” the lawmaker said. “I don’t want to use this word but it’s not just a ‘red-neck’ thing. It’s people in business, the president of a bank, a doctor.”
[…] Senate Republican Whip John Thune (S.D.) pushed back on calls to defund the Justice Department, telling reporters: “Are we going to get rid of the Justice Department? No. I think defunding is a really bad idea.”
Thune later explained to The Hill: “There are seasons, swings back and forth in politics and we’re in one now where the dominant political thinking is more populist with respect to national security, foreign policy, some domestic issues.”
But he said “that stuff comes and goes and it’s built around personalities,” alluding to the broadly held view that Trump’s election to the presidency in 2016 and his lasting influence over the party has put his brand of populism at the forefront.
[…] Senate Republicans tried to wave off their House colleagues from advancing articles of impeachment authored by Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) against President Biden and rolled their eyes at Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s (R-Ga.) attempt to expunge Trump’s impeachment record.
Sen. Todd Young (R-Ind.) warned, “I fear that snap impeachments will become the norm, and they mustn’t.”
Asked about efforts to erase Trump’s impeachment record, Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) quoted the popular show “Succession”: “Logan Roy made a good point. These are not serious people.” (read more)
The Dripping Rot, drip drip drip. Goodbye.
“It makes it more difficult to talk to constituents …” because we’re simply not buying your bullshit and treachery any longer. See those flames outside? smell that hot pitch? Stick a fork in these ones, boys, they’re done!
Fascinating that getting blamed (charged?) for the 2020 fraud election is still what scares these RINO Republican Senators.
They must have been promised they’d be free and clear, long ago.
But every incumbent House Republican was re-elected in 2020, so those people heard far different promises.
Apparently being a RINO is is too far right
Victor Davis Hanson has defined these “RINOS” as political moderate/liberals who significantly absolutely hate the Republican base. They hate MAGA. They hate Trump. They hate us. If Cornyn goes “D” he’s dead meat. The same can be said for ole’ Mitch! End of issue . . .
We are in agreement they hate us and WE hate you too, bye.
We accept your terms. Sign here…
If John Cornyn thinks that conservative Texans are educated and uneducated rednecks, then he needs to join the Shelia Jackson Lee Democrats in Texas. He will fit right in because he has been a Democrat for years.
Cornyn knows that Democrats have the wealthy Bolshevik Oligarch Billionaires so there’s more money to be made sucking up to them!
Spot on!
We dare you to leave the sooner you do we will make America great again!
Thunderstruck.
These people are TRAITORS to the USA. They all need to be recalled and new elections held for their replacements. No voting machines. One day voting. Voter ID required.
Can’t recall federal officers.
You are correct. What a bunch of BS that the same voters who elected these officials into office cannot likewise remove them. Then the military needs to arrest the traitors and hold tribunals to convict them for their treason. We, the people, are FED UP!
Can’t change what you already are. Don’t let the hit your azz’s. What P.O.S’s
Or, as I have heard it said, “If you leave quickly, maybe the door won’t hit you in the a## on your way out!”
They vote with the Democrats continually, the try their best to subvert the USA government to better serve their corporate masters. Changing the letter by their name just makes their deceptions more difficult. In short, there is no downside.
Leave voluntarily? Can’t they be fired before they go?
It should be enacted in the Republican Congress that any turncoat should be shunned. No bills they introduce will be seconded by any Republican.
And since only treason cannot “work corruption of blood”, all relatives shall forever be shunned.
Other than that, seeya!
Folks, these people are seriously flawed, and compromised, by the Uniparty surroundings of power & wealth. Nothing more. They are AHGAST at the very brazen lowlifes that roam the halls of the House…such commoners are too rouge and rash to represent “Republicans”. They won’t work as they should, following the party line, and helping to swell the coffers of campaign bank accounts and “supporting” funding for all their hard work….
It is beyond sickening.
You can hear it in their “lawyer speak”, or in their “presentation voice”. Thule, Pence, Murkowski, all just plastic cartoon leaders. They are saying this stuff as an open threat…a not so quiet declaration…of devotion to the ruling class. Bring that scum here, and we will flip to keep status quo. They do this because they won re-election by hook or crook.
Complete pond scum….all of them.
Was Thule a misspelling, or a deliberate (and probably spot on) allusion?
Amen, Neo.
Don’t let the door hit you in your rotten, treasonous asses! Leaving the party will not exempt them from consequences once we transition from revelation to justice.
Buh-Bye!
Don’t let the door hit ya, where the Good Lord split ya!!
Good Riddance!!
Isn’t “Succession” about the Murdocks? He’s a smut peddling Brit if I remember correctly.
These people are “Transpublicans”. Ditch “Rino” it’s so overused it doesn’t mean anything.
They hate Americans like most of our elite. They love “Sodom”, “Mammon”, Ukraine, and “Their Democracy”.
These are the most unworthy people.
Piggy, you just coined a new term! “Transpublican”….
From what I recall, there was nothing that represented even RINO or GOP lite related to her voting record….
Not familiar with Succession. We choose not to watch what others have scripted. Reality is much better than quoting fantasy, Pierre Delecto!
Grow up and deal with reality! We have a Republic to save.
i sincerely hope Mr. Bannon picks up your brilliant name for “those people”. Too bad Rush is gone, it would be a new term by tomorrow.
Rupert M. is from Oz/Down Under. He became a naturalized U.S. citizen in the early 1980s so he could purchase his first U.S. media company. At the time, foreign individuals or entities could not buy American media companies.
That’s it! Smut peddling Aussie. Thanks!
“I’m having more ‘rational Republicans’ coming up to me and saying, ‘I just don’t know how long I can stay in this party,’ said Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska). ” And she says that like it’s a bad thing. Bless her heart.
Actually, it may be a bit encouraging that they are even noticing what “rational Republicans” are thinking and saying. I would not have assumed that they did.
This is all Trump’s fault.
God, I love that man.
Did I say man? I mean murder weapon.
Radical “Republicans”? Romney, Thunder, Cornyn, Murkowski
“There are an astonishing number of people in my state who believe the election was stolen,”
Yup, count me as one of those people. But if you doubt me, then maybe you’re one of those people who helped, supported, or covered up that stolen election.
What is shocking to them is that even doctors and lawyers and such (and other educated types) might happen to love their country and want it taken back from these blood sucking globalist elites. They were just so sure that it was just us backwoods mouth breathers that was making some noise.
It’s pretty sad isn’t it? No one dare say the election was stolen here in PA Especially when our great Senator is John Fetterman, and our newly minted Govnr Shapiro , as an Attorney General, singlehandedly made voting by paper ballot “legal” in PA.
Screw the legislature and he did. And Mastriano, he was too flaming pro life for anyone to handle.
The way I’m thinking is that there should be FOUR parties on the ballots, Repub’s, Dems, Indies, and MAGA. Oh but wait, here in PA the ballot counters are already whining and complaining about Indies being able to vote in primaries because it would be too damn hard to print and count the extra ballots.
I agree with Pres. Trump. It’s all RIGGED.
I believe they protest too much. Makes one wonder how many of the decepticons have benefitted from the election stealing machine? Wouldn’t that explain why so many refuse to see the problem and are against any action to fix the issues that allow for the steal.
Exactly, Mike.
These traitors can’t stand the fact that the base of the party has moved past them, making their RINO irrelevancy inevitable.
They saw many RINOs lose their primaries in 2022 and see the handwriting on the wall.
I have a better idea……Let’s us Treepers throw you/them in the Briar Patch ourselves. We know that’s where you silly rabbits want to be.
HEADLINE INCOMING–“Prominent CONSERVATIVE Senators claim that the party has gone too far right (domestic white terrorist) even for their patriotic traditionalist spirit under the helm of DJT.”…..(These things practically write themselves).
This is their threat I suppose; well screw it. How many here would be upset?….that was a rhetorical question lol. We all know at this point its a one man band. Donald J. Trump and his merry men of which some might be ok. Apologies for being shell shocked these days. I do have faith in a few but not many.
HOWEVER, I do have faith in OUR PEOPLE!! That is what is going to SEAL THIS DEAL!! I am holding out hope because its really the only thing that can work.
As the Legendary and Great Roger Waters sang it’s…….US and THEM!!
President Donald J. Trump: Promises made, promises kept for the forgotten men and women.
And after all, we are just ordinary men…
It’s a great tune 🥰
A second Republican senator who spoke with The Hill said the growing strength of radical populism “makes it a lot more difficult to govern, it makes it difficult to talk to constituents.”
Oh, don’t they hate when that happens. I intend to be ungovernable.
Well now, that “difficult to govern” idea seems to bother them? Have they got some sand in the bearings of their machinery?
Someone once said that we need to become ‘ungovernable’…..
Since according to 30Pence we are not their concern, the constituents they’re referring to are their donors. They seem to have forgotten the We the People part of the Declaration.
Promise?!? Take them with you.
I volunteer to drive their ‘getaway vehicle’!
I’ll call them a cab.
Needs to be a bus. Girl.
Extremely disingenuous. They know damn well what issues we’ve been pleading them for years. They act like this is new. We just can’t be ignored like they’ve done in the past.
They left their base years ago. Go ahead and switch. They are pains in the ass. Let the Dimwits deal with them.
Don’t let the screen door hit ya……….
Dare I say an almost “honest” politician. As Cicero said:
A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself.
At least she now carries her banner openly.
Go, just make sure you do so before your next election so voters know enter you stand. . Romney, make sure you take your niece with you so we can get a conservative as the chair of the RNC.
With respect, have you not read Sundance’s articles on the 168 VOTING MEMBERS OF THE RNC?? We HAVE NO INFLUENCE ON THEM.
They are members of a private club, and we are NOT, & have no voting ability. Only MEMBERS vote.
We can complain all we want, we are nothing but the peons who mark the ballots for THEIR CHOICE of candidate. They select, we elect.
Their whole game is for them to select a suitable candidate who is “electable”, a good liar, who can persuade us to vote for him/her, who will then betray us and the country, and make laws that favor the Establishment, and their donors. It’s just a big vote and money-laundering operation. That’s all.
As SD has said, it’s all about maintaining the illusion of choice. Once we get wise, it’s over… And we’re there. But if the elections are rigged (as they are now), we have little power, unless it comes to blood. And it will.
Do we need any more confirmation that some Republicans are going to assist in stealing the 2024 election?
Please, don’t go away mad- Just Go Away !!!
Blondie…great song
A coming out party for political transgenders.
Good riddance to a useless Republican twitch!
Our prayers will be answered if they collectively stop talking & act.
Collectively they have never acted in anyones best interest except their own so I’m saddened to say that they will never leave of their own volition.
Well, well. Are these dumb asses finally figuring things out? This ain’t your Daddy’s Republican party anymore Lisa. I know that the bounty that you have reaped sucking at the taxpayers trough has been nice for you arrogant creeps, but finally we are on to you. Party is over so to speak. So go ahead over to where you have really always meant to be–with the Democrat freak show. You will feel better. You will not have to pretend so much.
blackrock guy said he could pretty much buy any of these people for $10k maybe he was right.
Vote them out of office. What cretins.
Alaska has ranked voting. They are always scheming to keep power.
Huh, how funny this is.…..not. i have been saying the same thing….since 1988.
You have people who felt some allegiance to the party that are now really questioning, ‘Why am I [in the party?]” she added. “I think it’s going to get even more interesting as we move closer to the elections and we start going through some of these primary debates.
absolute traitors
I can’t believe these people put their feelings, not facts, into words!
The usual RINO suspects listed above cannot abide people who wrap themselves in the Constitution which gives power to the People instead of being one who grifts for funds from the richest entity in the Dem party.
Big surprise… NOT. Times have changed but these self-serving troglodytes are frozen in amber. They’re exactly what’s wrong with BOTH the Republican and Democratic parties.
Trump is STILL Draining The Swamp!
These are people who will do anything to subvert a win by President Trump in 2024. If Republicans were to take back the Senate, I have no doubt that some of these traitors would switch to the Dems just to prevent Trump from getting his people and policies approved, including SCOTUS nominees.
I wish they all would just shut up and leave.
Ill check it out.
These quotes are reason to rejoice. These people are no longer advancing the pretense that they, too, support MAGA as they once did. The enemy is now publicly acknowledged and can be shown the door to the Democratic Party where they will fit right in and then hopefully be ousted.
GOOD BYE AND GOOD RIDDANCE… WE NEED REAL PATRIOTS NOT BACK STABBING TRAITOR POS…!!!
“The peasants are revolting!”
Indeed we are. 🤠
Let them and die in their own stew.
Murkowski, Thune, Cornyn et al make it crystal clear why the government is simply dysfunctional. The Republic is literally in its final throes and Thune is talking in terms of pendulums. Sorry, this pendulum is swinging one way with them as Republican OR Democrat. All 3 are closet progressives and the REAL problem with progressives is they don’t know how the story ends.
Clue to all 3; SF, Chicago, detroit, Philly…that’s how this story ends. Wise up, resign from office but don’t make any more promises you won’t keep at best or will regret at worst.
Finally, when was the last time Romney said anything worth paying attention to?
Dont let the door hit ya…
The only problem with this RINO crap is that the only alternative (The Democrat Party) has completely gone off the deepend to the point of traitorism so where the Hell are they gonna go?
They can go home and repent of their sins. Or just go to hell, whichever.
Lisa Murkowski, John Thune, John Cornyn, Mitt Romney, and Todd Young have finally admitted that they are tired of pretending to be Uniparty Republicans. Please clap.
Nobody on our side will be hurt by the departure of these out of touch morons. Most of them come from Repug states and will be replaced by better people. As Democrats, they will have to run for re-election, and we are the people they will have to ask for votes. As far as Romney and Murkowski go, good riddance. As for the others, they are running scared and will have been smoked out as villains if we elect Trump. Another reason we have to elect Trump!
