Republicans in turmoil ... Infighting over leadership

Who will replace Paul Ryan?

See...we could say that! Just like they are saying we are Infighting over our leadership!

There is no reason to take their bait like we always do.

Every party member can think and say whatever the hell they want about who might lead them. It is a completely normal and natural thing.

I should've been clearer about that. Collins was running for another 2-year term and now the Cons need someone else to run. The problem is also compounded by the fact that they may not be able to get Collins' name off the ballot.

Almost every repub politico in the district is a gangster.

One possibility is to get collins to run for something like a judge or town clerk in, oh Clarence, where he lives (opening up a space for some other gangster to run for the House seat.), Then make sure he collins loses his little election.


Here's the presser if you are interested,.
