In It to Win It

I'm kind of loving this chaos

I'm tired of saving Republicans from themselves. I look forward to the day when President Biden and VP Harris be away from this mess. They deserve all the thanks for keeping us from the brink while they could.

Republicans haven't even taken control yet and they're already causing chaos. Since people seemed to have forgotten the chaos of the Trump 1.0, I would like for everyone to witness again that Republicans are unwilling to govern. They have an ungovernable party. Their own president-elect steps on everything they do.

In a couple of weeks, they will actually have to govern. It's fun being the minority party. They do their best propaganda being in the minority. There's much less room to spin when you hold power.

Say what you want about our leaders but they keep the party united despite their many differences. Nancy Pelosi kept the party united. Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries are keeping the party united. Unlike Republicans, they understand that effective governing is a team sport. Republicans successfully drove out their last three leaders; John Boehner, Paul Ryan and Kevin McCarthy. Their leaders always came to Democrats begging for support because they can't govern even when they have a majority.

I look forward to watching their party implode once again.

trying to talk the doomers off the ledge for a month now and this is exactly what I was talking about. 30 Republicans also helped kill this thing. They do not like Trump, they do not like his methods, and they will not allow him to destroy everything.
Now it's going to probably be a standoff, and the winner will be the one who puts on the best media show after midnight Friday.
