Yep, It is Trump's party. Which means, you got nothing. You don't have any issues, you don't have any proposals. Nope, all you got is "we got cheated". Fan the division, stoke the flames of racism, wink, wink, at the Proud Boys, call KKK members "good people", cause you need their votes. And get the Republican legislatures to make it hard for people of color to vote, limit the polling places, eliminate the drop boxes, make sure no polling place is within five miles of public transit. Yeah, you go Trump's party. The party of conspiracy theorists, racists, nutcases, and half-wits. Yeah, the Trump party. I think you should go ahead and change the name, Republican my ass, just call it the Trump party. Hell, I bet at the country club the waitstaff moans when they hear, "the Trump party".These are yesterday's Republicans. Those that moved on have. It is Trump's party todaySadly, most just can't quit him, so strong is the cult.
Op-Ed from a Republican:
When Donald Trump, the patron saint of sore losers, appeared at a Republican event on Saturday night and compared the 2020 election to a “third-world-country election like we’ve never seen before,” it wasn’t just another false rant from the former president. His words also described his attempted subversion of democracy in the run-up to the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol.
Consider Mr. Trump’s remarks at his rally just before the attack: “If Mike Pence does the right thing, we win the election,” he said. “All Vice President Pence has to do is send it back to the states to recertify and we become president.”
Or consider Mr. Trump’s harassment of Georgia’s Republican secretary of state, Brad Raffensperger, with the request to “find” him votes, or his relentless harassment of other election officials and governors.
Many Republicans want to move on from the Jan. 6 attack. But how is that possible when the former president won’t move on from the Nov. 3 election and continues to push the same incendiary lies that resulted in 61 failed lawsuits before Jan. 6, led to an insurrection and could lead to yet more violence?

Republicans must authorize an investigation of Jan. 6. Otherwise they enable Trump, feed QAnon and allow the threat of violence to continue.www.nytimes.com
