"SNIP......

Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) trashed House Freedom Caucus members as “performance artists,” while defending Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) as a “real legislator” who voted more often with former President Donald Trump.

Said Crenshaw: “We have grifters in our midst… Lie after lie after lie.”

Dan Crenshaw has played himself with me. There are no heroes in the GOP. They are last minute sallys who benefited from and played the Fascism game.

in the suburbs of Toronto where people have relatives all over the world and were like "fuck conservative liars and authoritarians I want a liberal country" and Trudeau won even though people were tired of him.

performance artists every week, sometimes more. I include Trump in that group of fluffers. They need red meat. And getting affirmed with authoritarian/rugged individual/hateful/death of neighbours narratives alienates suburbs. So they have to be Baskin Robin's with 31 flavors of Republicans. Seems being one with the Trump cult does not adequately lead to a field of viable candidates.

"This guy is kind of cool, Dan Crenshaw," Davidson said while showing a photo of the Texas Republican wearing an eye patch.

"You may be surprised to hear he's a congressional candidate for Texas and not a hit-man in a porno movie," Davidson added.

Don't get me wrong... Crenshaw is a shitbag and this changes nothing. It just amuses me to see this right wing infighting spread. Let them eat each other.

and having to feed them a steady diet of bull**** will piss of suburban voters in swing districts. Strict MAGA narratives make the Republican Party brittle. And they have to figure out how to have a buffet of ideas for voters when the MAGA base will cry foul at anything that sounds not fascist.
