Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsRepublicans have made the decision to sink or swim with Trump.
No matter how bad or insane it gets. They are ready to go down with the ship. They cannot bring themselves to disavow dear Leader. They are too far down the rabbit hole to turn back now.
They are exactly what you see.

I spoke to my local DNC representative, I asked him what were Democrats doing to make sure republicans would not cheat, and he had no clear answers for me. I hope this time around they are prepared.

"Whats the problem with rising housing costs..." "They Don't Care". I was going to make a shirt with that slogan until I saw how much it cost just to make a T-shirt lol. I can make a gorgeous Tie Dye for 10 bucks lol.
Sorry, I drift.... THEY DON"T CARE!!

(2,938 posts)behind smoke and mirrors..........they are going ALL OUT, LIKE NEVER BEFORE, to corrupt this upcoming election.......mark my words............
Far worse than a month prior to the 2024 election, when Trump was literally bragging in all his public speeches, that the win was in the bag..........and that he loved the assistance of Musk and his computer knowledge......

(53,022 posts)is that if they sink the suggestion is that they drown. But in reality, once drowned, they won't remain quiet. They'll probably get louder with indignations and false narratives to weaken us. The Democrats who serve next term better hit the ground running and not try to appease them.

(21,047 posts)Choosing NOT to rock the boat while they are in it, displays their COWARDICE!!
That is the word that should be thrown at them in debates, the media, etc., is "COWARD".

(5,421 posts)I guess they still think it's 2024--- or want to believe that it is!
But it's 2026.... which rhymes with 2006---
a mid-term election which made me very happy,
since we flipped both house and senate to Democratic control!
I predict that some of these Trump-humping Republicans
whom no one predicts to lose will GO DOWN under the blue tide,
and the usual drop-off of maggot voters when Trump is not on the ballot---
He's been making even some of THOSE rather unhappy....

(1,976 posts)How their main campaign points now are none of the things Trump was elected for. A lot of then are exactly the opposite even.
1. More war in Iran and let's invade Cuba too.
2. Communist Democrats are the country's biggest threat.
3. Double the defense budget. Everything else is waste and fraud and needs to be cut or eliminated.
4. Affordability doesn't matter. It's your fault for just not being richer. Spending more for the same stuff means the economy is booming.
5. House prices skyrocketing is great for rich investors.
6. Billionaires are above the law. Also no one cares about Epstein.
