Republicans have had a lot of bad elections since Donald Trump took over the party. They lost the popular vote for president in 2016, they lost the House in 2018, they lost the presidency in 2020, and they lost the Senate in 2021.
Now to add to their incompetence they ousted their House Speaker Kevin McCarthy.
Most of the top Republican candidates running for president in 2024 reacted grimly to the ouster of House Speaker Kevin McCarthy by a faction of hard-liners in their own party. One contender Vivek Ramaswamy, the loudmouth of the candidates, embraced the chaos and the front-runner, Ron DeSantis, notably did not denounce the move.
This is a Republican Party that has lost its mind.
They are so far away from Ronald Reagan that it is like the GOP today is not the real Republican Party.
The Democrats do not have to say or do a single thing. The Republicans have proven that they cannot govern.
And there is a lot on the table today. This past weekend, Congress passed, and President Biden signed, a short-term continuing resolution (CR) that continues to fund the federal government through November 17.
The CR does not provide funds for Ukraine and without that funding Russia will have won that war and likely be deciding which country to invade next. Those are all NATO nations and an attack on any of them draws the United States into war because we are part of NATO.
One thing we do know is that Republican Party behavior assures we will have a government totally controlled by the Democratic Party and that is a good thing.
