The GOP had no party platform and the Senate GOP has no legislative agenda other than being assholes and trying to stop the Biden agenda.

New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu told The Washington Examiner that he nearly launched a Republican Senate campaign, but changed direction after talking directly to incumbent GOP senators. "They were all, for the most part, content with the speed at which they weren't doing anything," the governor said.

Sununu added that virtually every Senate Republican he spoke to intended to do nothing but obstruct until the next Republican presidency. "It bothered me that they were OK with that," he said.

During his White House press conference yesterday, President Joe Biden literally read Sununu's quotes while highlighting the challenges of dealing with GOP lawmakers who too often don't care about governing. The Democrat added:

"I did not anticipate that there'd be such a stalwart effort to make sure that the most important thing was that President Biden didn't get anything done. Think about this: What are Republicans for? What are they for? Name me one thing they're for."

The president had good timing. Not long before his press conference began, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell fielded some questions from reporters, and NBC News' Leigh Ann Caldwell asked the Kentucky Republican what his party's policy agenda would be if the GOP takes back control of Congress.

3. They are corrupt, evil, and seeking to destroy America.

If everyone in America voted, free and fair, and the rethugs won, I’d be dismayed but I’d accept it (and probably move to another country). But they are definite minority doing everything they can to destroy America.

10. Republicans' plan is out in the open, so you'd think people would catch on

Biden even quoted Sununu, FFS.

But some woman at WaPo tweeted out a claim that Biden's speech was trying to "blamesplain" away what is actually largely the fault of his own party.

Everyone forgets the 50 Republicans in the Senate, and that benefits them.

16. They are hiding nothing.

They have no ideas that any voter wants unless you are in the 1%.
There is no policy except tax cuts and guns every where.
They know that won't sell.

[Takket]

17. can you imagine if Democrats took this position?

No one would vote for them. No one.

I wish I knew what magic spell the gop cast that made "having no position on anything (at least one they will share publicly. oh, they have positions, but they know the people hate them) except BS culture war stuff", a viable strategy to win national offices.

20. Pass the voting rights law, and there is no way the GOP ever wins again.

Seriously. Nobody with a brain thinks that the Democratic Party will fail to gain five or six seats, maybe more, in the next election PROVIDED we have voting rights law passed. Keep in mind that we have NEVER had fair elections in the United States. It has always been heavily weighted to the white supremacists throughout its codification via the Constitution and the Declaration of Supremacy, er, Independence, when in reality the seeds were planted upon the arrival of the slave ship in 1619. This is key.
