Speaking of this, rich tax cuts are the only thing I can think of that Rs are good at anymore. They even suck at sticking it to the Dems. The debt ceiling and shutdown were big donuts, rolling back Bidens policies isn't happening, and the impeachment has been a disaster. At this point I wonder why even the craven Rs pining for revenge still vote Republican?
Too bad it doesn't say "I'm trying to change, Washington."
Indeed. What is the floor for Republicans when it comes to ethics and morals?
When Pelosi stripped MTG of her committee assignments it just freed her up to be less accountable and spend more time on social media. McCarthy should give him more work to do.
Impossible task. "Reasonable Republicans" is an oxymoron. True reasonable Republicans would be telling Trump to GFH and would be saying the same about the MAGA caucus.
Abused wife syndrome. They are convinced that they can turn him around. This time he's different. He's changed.
You are wrong about your recognition skills. You're definitely right about your ignorance.
I’m calling my Congressman’s office today (He’s a Republican) and telling him if he supports what this Buffoon is trying to do I’ll vote against him in 2024.

Your Congressional race in 2024 maybe very interesting if the maps are invalidated.
Not doubting that, but it may pit a couple of current GOP seats against each other. I.e. Rutherford and Bean.
That would be interesting- isn’t Bean from Clay County? Rutherford is my Congressman now.
Thank you for solidifying my correctness on that statement. Sadly goldmom agreed with you.
You are right, but not how you smugly think you are.
Which means the only real threat to your representative is someone even further to the right.
Doug Broxson is horrible. He's deep in the pockets of road contractors and other special interests.In other news, Don Gaetz (Matt’s father) is expected to announce a run for his old Florida Senate seat today.

Who's up, down, in and out — your morning tip sheet on Florida politics.
Don Gaetz is running — Look for former Senate President Gaetz to officially launch his campaign today for state Senate District 1 to replace the term-limited Sen. Doug Broxson. The official launch follows some speculation that Gaetz would run. It also comes as many wonder whether his son, Republican U.S. Rep. Matt Gaetz, is positioning himself for a 2026 bid for Florida Governor. Should the senior Gaetz win, it could mean he’s wielding power in the Senate while his son campaigns for Governor. Though the junior Gaetz has downplayed rumors that he’s running for Governor in 2026, many are expecting he will.
If we are being honest, the entire MAGA wing of the Rs is a political liability. But yet, they keep pushing on because Rs continue to vote for them.

He is but his handlers are fairly adept at using weasels for their own political purposes.
Not true. No matter how many times you say it. Why attack someone's intelligence who is smarter than you? It makes no sense. That would be like me calling Ryan Reynolds ugly.
Are you referring to McCarthy? If so, I thought you would agree with him.
