re: #87 Big Beautiful Door

In all likelihood Trump will be President until January 2021. Impeachment or the 25th Amendment would require Republican support, and the GOP is wholly Trump’s party now; Republicans won’t dare enrage the base by voting to remove him.

It is political suicide.

The Republicans in office have to be doing studies based on polling as to where their futures are heading.

If reports are true, that base is getting smaller and smaller. There are now way more people identifying as independents and libertarians. Probably more Democrats now from crossovers too.

So what the hell are they doing catering to a bunch of people that might not be strong enough to effectively get them reelected?

I know they may be counting on gerrymandered districts. But last Tuesday Ohio D12 showed that isn’t working either. Ohio D12 is as gerrymandered as it can get and Trump has changed it from a plus 36 points to 1.

Not to take away from Danny O’Connor’s fine run. I hope he wins in November. However, if there was another candidate with a little more experience and name recognition they might have won that election.

The Republicans need to get their own back involved and that will only come by showing they can stand up to Trump. That base is still Republican. Sure they are crazy mad about Trump now, but they will still vote for Republicans in the future.

I guess most of them are ready to leave Washington or something, because to me they don’t seem to be very worried about keeping their party together for a future.

Trump isn’t going to accomplish that. He’s destroying it like he is messing everything up.
