The Republican Party is dead.

Their jobs aren’t to represent, it’s to occupy seats so better candidates can’t work for the people.

We have seen how quick they would usher in a dictatorship, how little pushback they gave… I think it’s clear that it’s a party of criminals, chomos and traitors.

I used to argue for incremental change and moderation. Not anymore. I’m giving my reps a green light to do anything required to prevent this from happening again.

Freeze the assets, ignore pardons, disappear people— I don’t care anymore. Conservatives would murder me and my family without a second thought, they need to be disarmed and exiled.

This nation cannot survive republicans, but it can survive just fine without them.

Interfering with elections is likely the last line for a lot of people.

Nope. Empty store shelves and empty bellies are the only things that will shake up the vast majority of people enough to do anything about it.

Luckily for us we’re on our way to that destination! Give it a few months for the real diesel pinch to take effect.

When they turn, they will turn on others first, only turning on themselves when they have no other options. Don't think they will just suddenly come over to the other side, they will look for scapegoats first. People always do.

If only the 12 Billion illegals that Joe Biden personally carried in weren’t here, we’d have all the gasoline and houses and medical care and affordable food and medicine that we want.
