Many people in the republican party in Georgia did not go out and vote Tuesday and many conservatives nationally argued that it is time for the Republicans to take it in the chin politically speaking.
It seems that Washington Republicans are trying to prove those voices right.
Many Republicans/Cons released statements the last 24 hours only to accommodate a media narrative. But Democrats are never happy and have now moved the goal posts to demand that Trump should be thrown out of office with two weeks to ago.
Watcha gonna do now, Righteous Cons?
In other words, your political opponent is dictating what is “the right thing to do.” But because they are your opponents and you are their useful idiots they will keep on pushing until you behave like a Dem at which point Democrats may as well win elections. Hence, GA outcome.
Elected Dems have openly called for ubrestvover the last year which means that if yesterday was driven by the other side then many Dems and their media would’ve gone along with it as a historic/iconic moment. This means many righteous cons would not bark; some would even back it.

Two years ago, Libs blocked lawmakers from going in/out of elevators (remember the @JeffFlake moment?), and roamed in restricted areas.
It was during the Kavanaugh hearings. The Hill was essentially stormed but PD did not drop tear gas and shoot and it was cheered on by MSM.
Photos of Capitol buildings in the US being overrun and under siege by lefty Dems over the last decade.
Those things were covered as great activism, and Cons did not attack it as anti-democratic since media didn’t cover it as such. Cons whine about media but parrot media.
The Dems, their Super PACs (media) and even some @SenateGOP’s told America repeatedly that rioting and getting in the face of lawmakers (who back Trump) are a good thing.

The Wisconsin one in 2011.
I don’t recall anyone freaking out about democracy being under siege.
Some in the media think that arresting Trump will be a walk in the park.
Today is just a downpayment.
It’s a prediction; not a warning.
Don’t blame the weatherman for telling you about a pending snowstorm.
If @SenTomCotton’s reasoning were sound then do away with the whole Jan 6th procedure. Congress has no role in the electoral process per @TomCottonAR (which is false but I am going by his claim).
According to @SenTomCotton if a group of states go rogue to capturing a branch of the federal government, the other branches need to stand by and leave it for “the states” to decide.
Um, those states sent lawmakers to DC to defend/represent their state. No?
The reason many US states and cities have yet to distribute 70% - 80% of the vaccines sent to them is the same reason the death rate of COVID-19 is very high in some places versus others: We are governed by in-over-their-heads, drunk clowns who have no clue what they are doing.
In NY, @NYGovCuomo should do what is done in Israel where anyone above 60 or who is in a certain health/job group gets a shot. Israel is pushing vaccines to any provider capable of injection it to said group while in NY there are sub-groups within the health care worker class.
You heard that right: While front line workers are first for vaccines, there is an order within those workers as to who can get it. This causes delays; especially after @NYGovCuomo announced $1 million fines a few days ago for any provider that does not follow his rules. READ:
@rudoren All but one who are in the #Forward50 in relation to Hasidim are written in a way to attack Hasidim. At times the article praises those smear Hasidim. For example, the Health Commissioner of Orange County claimed that the infection rate drop in Kiryas Joel from 34% to 4%
is due to Hasidim refusing to test. This claim is the core of her section in the article. But if the claim is true, then COVID-19 deaths from KJ would have exploded in Oct-Nov! (Patients in hospital are tested, so Covid-related deaths from KJ would have been registered as such).
The #Forward50 also repeats the claim about Hasidim (as a collective) refusing to follow COVID—19 rules. Well if true, Orthodox areas would be hardest hit but they are not on top of the list. This means that lack of rule-following was widespread across NY so why pick on Orthodox,
There is a wing in the GOP/Con movement that was willing to burn the GOP chance at the WH because Trump is on the ticket and who claim that Trump is a drag on the GOP — But they also want Trump to campaign in GA because he is a net help.
Hello?
If you think the @SenateGOP is insufferable now for Trump voters, imagine a GOP Senate of 52-48 or worse 51-49. On every other big bill there will be a few GOPers to join Dems.
Dems will get their way times over and whatever goes wrong will be the GOP’s fault.
Why bother? 🤷🏼♂️
For example, @FrankLuntz and many editorial editors at the NY Post are in this wing.
If Trump is a net-problem for the GOP, then he should not be asked to help the candidates. If he has pull in the GOP (and thus the power to cause damage) then stop dismissing his voters.
