because the GOP big money infrastructure hasn't shown any real signs of budging away from Dumdum. They loved the budget busting tax cuts and the rhetoric that pitted the rest of us against each other so that nobody noticed they were looting the government since we had nothing else to loot.

So don't bet the rent on any movement toward a rational third party just yet.

I wish there were an argument -- with evidence, of course -- to the contrary.

Republicans are of 2 major types: those who worship Loser-45 and will continue to follow him regardless; and those who don’t like the Fat Buzzard, even hate him, but will continue to follow him because of the money, power, and influence he continues to wield, and the cold, sweaty fear he inspires in his enemies.

Liz Cheney and one or two other exceptions openly oppose Flubbo-45 (I hate to give the creature the dignity of using his family name) are the only Republicans with even a scrap of honor and personal dignity. The rest are either mindless cult followers or craven, cowardly human failures.

On this subject, he's spot on.

If these anti-Trumptards want some actual results, then they need to put their money where there rhetoric is......

Stop the FASCISM BEFORE IT BECOMES INEVIDABLE.

We can't stop the coming dictatorship alone. It will take the help of rational conservatives.
