Liz Cheney: The GOP is at a turning point. History is watching us.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/opini...turning-point/
A sad state of affairs when a Cheney is one of the only remaining Repubes with any sense whatsoever...

How on Earth can you cooperate with a faction that backed a mob out to kill your members?

Refuses reality, rather relishing rebellion reverie.

From the other side, after conning your voters for over years, how do you tell the truth now and continue to get elected? Lies will prevail over truth till until the 2022 mid terms and McConnell will do what he does best, say no and block every bill unless its tax cuts.

The Magamorons aren't the group that matters. They are lost, pretty much. What's in play, as Ricky said, are swing voters and moderates.

Magamorons who are part of the GQP wing of the GOP are indeed the cult and its too late. I do not think that their thinking can be realigned or their priorities realigned.
I spoke to one of our employees who refuses to get vaccinated since it is a matter of freedom to him and he claims that the 'government' has no right to mandate wearing of masks. When I pointed to him that everywhere we go these days, masks are mandatory, I got a blank stare. He has been with us for well over ten years and now his days are marked since he would rather leave than get vaccinated.

Just last week two different businesses I frequent when there. Asked if they were making employees get vaccinated? Both said no, they were not. But if the employee does not, then gets sick with C-19, any time off would need to be covered with their own sick days and vacation time. No more of the supplied two week C-19 days for those who do not get the shot!
If no days in the bank, could very well get fired!

I watched some of those interviews on tv with Trump supporters and they truly believe that the election was stolen. They won't listen to the facts and they can offer no evidence to support their belief. It is just mind boggling. I don't see how they can toss aside their critical thinking abilities and blindly follow a con man.

Most people have very very little critical thinking ability, except where they have been trained to apply it in a job function.
