The parasite is almost completely done consuming its host.

[Stinky The Clown]

I fail to understand why long time GOP party members continue to be members. More and more we see notable breaks as this one or that announces they have left the Republican Party.

Many that remain, however, are not in the thrall of TFG. Why do they stay? Do they think somehow the FUCKING CRAZIES who are the new base will relinquish their death grip on the party's soul?

NO!

The CRAZIES are parasites. And they are almost done sucking the blood out of the GOP soul.

Why do they stay? Why is MD governor Hogan still a member?

Or Vermont's Phill Scott still a member?

These are just two examples.

Why do they stay?

1. They don't suck as much elected in small towns and villages.

And nobody else wants those positions in many cases. So they stay puke.

[ananda]

2. Why they stay.

They really hate liberalism and Democrats.

That hate surmounts everything, even life.

[Hugin]

3. Leaving would be an admission they were wrong...

Caught in an insidious finger trap. The harder they pull the stucker they get.

The party of Dunning-Kruger.



They never quuuiiiitttteee make it to phase 2 or 3.

4. Where else do they have to go? Nt

[empedocles]

6. Yes. No other viable political options.

[Hotler]

5. Their hate for democrats and libs is what drives these assholes. Plain and simple. nt

[Kablooie]

7. To leave the GOP is to leave politics.

Theyd have to find a new line of work.
Only 2 parties in the US. Submit or leave are the only options.
