Georgia state senator trying to impeach/remove Ms. Willis from the DJT election interference trial get censured by his Replicant party cohorts. His response - they are all RINOs, the entire caucus.
“He should be on this stage tonight,” said Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, explaining to the conservative audience that “He owes it to you to defend his record where they added $7.8 trillion to the debt. That set the stage for the inflation we have now.”
DeSantis said that? In front of Republican voters?!? Holy Shit!
I heard Christie say, “Donald Duck” and thought that one might really hurt. I’m just going by my dad’s reaction to being called that in high school - he always claimed he broke the kid’s jaw. (He always went by “Don” because he hated the fool name so much.)
Well yes, that’s DeSantis point. Make trump own up to trump’s deficit spending unlike what true conservative DeSantis would deliver.
Ron may be throwing mighty dust bunnies at trump, but that’s a bit more than the other RWT wannabes are throwing.
Yes, it’s all BS. The prez is but one influence on the budget, much less on the difference between spending & tax intake.
I suppose Ron has the germ of a good idea there. Namely that whatever the hell is trump’s political philosophy, it ain’t Republicanism and the more the Rs beat that drums the more likely the non-wacko public starts to notice that.
That’s fair. Blaming Trump for the inflation really is bullshit. It’s complicated, as the economy always is, and it’s affected as much by global events as local ones, let alone anything that any POTUS could do anything about. But you could rightfully blame Trump as much as you could blame Biden for the same thing, which Republicans are constantly trying to do.
It occurred to me that Donald is telling the Republicans to stop the debates because he’s a little worried he won’t be the nominee. I think odds are that Donald will be the nominee, but to say there are visible cracks in the GOP is an understatement.
