Pence to GOP: Stop 'fighting yesterday's battles'

[ificandream]

Former Vice President Mike Pence in a speech Friday night will call on Republicans to move beyond "relitigating" the 2020 election as the GOP hopes to flip both chambers of Congress this November.

Pence, in an address to the party's donors, will say Republicans can only win “if we are united around an optimistic vision for the future based on our highest values.”

“We cannot win by fighting yesterday’s battles, or by relitigating the past,” he’ll add, according to prepared remarks. “Republicans can only win by offering real, lasting solutions to the problems Democrats have created for the American people.”

The stance again puts him squarely at odds with former President Trump, who has repeatedly asserted unsubstantiated allegations of voter fraud and irregularities in the 2020 race.

[Chainfire]

4. Is Pence on dope? Doesn't he realize that neither the left nor the right like or respect him?

5. The GOP is always fighting yesterday's battles.

That's the very essence of conservatism. The party of mulligans. They never move society forward or upward.

9. Civil war ring a bell????

Hell they would love to go invade reservations and take the casino’s, Alamo would be a great weekend of fun for Proud boys. Stop those blacks from leaving the fields. Everything they stand for is yesterday, when MurKKKa was great.
Pence is a total idiot. He could not win Indiana sewage coordinator.

6. repubs will not

say what they want to do. They know the voters do not want what they want. As long is trump is calling the shots, Pence doesn't have a chance.

12. Putz thinks he's going to be president.

What a maroon.

19. Half The Country Wants To Jail Him; The Other Half Wants To Hang Him

Not a promising basis for a Presidential campaign.

[MontanaMama]

25. You're correct!

That’s what’s so freaking funny/scary about it.

[Mz Pip]

13. Not gonna happen.

That would mean the GOP would have to put forward actual goals and policies. Much easier to continue promoting the Big Lie.

[C Moon]

14. trump's problem is going to be his ego: he will not admit he lost. He lost.

[oldsoftie]

The BIGGEST loser

[riversedge]

16. golly gee--The Repugs are gonna fix the problems Dems created!! How nice of them!! ................

.........“We cannot win by fighting yesterday’s battles, or by relitigating the past,” he’ll add, according to prepared remarks. “Republicans can only win by offering real, lasting solutions to the problems Democrats have created for the American people.”

[Hoosier_Progressiv]

28. problems democrats created

The problems democrats created are wanting diversity, equality for all people, the right for all people to vote, affordable healthcare, an educated population, which would strengthen a real solid democracy. Republicans cannot have that to exist.

[Cha]

17. No "values".

[twodogsbarking]

18. They think it is all your fault Mike. They always will.

[patphil]

20. Yesterday's battles is all they have.

The Republicans haven't offered a "real, lasting solution" to a problem for decades.
They have created real lasting problems that will be around for decades, but no solutions.

[hatrack]

21. They're stuck in the past like Jurassic flies in fossil amber . . .

And it's not even the real past - it's some toxic bullshit confection of Laura Ingalls Wilder, Ayn Rand and "Triumph Of The Will".

So, yeah, good luck with that, Hoosier Mortician.

[azureblue]

29. IOW

"let's ignore the damage Trump and his ilk have done to America and the GOP and go blithely forward, in hopes they won't sneak up on us and bite us in the butt."

What he is really saying is they he wants to sweep Trump's crimes under the rug and not prosecute him for attempting a coup, and a hundred more crimes he committed (WITH THE HELP OF THE GOP) while in office.

[twodogsbarking]

30. Pence refused to overthrow the election.

He has no loyalty. His legacy. He will never get anything from the Reps because of it.

[Paladin]

31. Oh, sure---NOW he grows a set of balls.

Too late, Pence.
