Republicans continue to fray

Post by TC Talks » Sun May 02, 2021 2:37 pm

It seems the trump vs conservative battle continues.

I personally enjoy them spending so much time fighting each other, they are distracted from trying to figure out how to take back the Senate in 2022.
In fact, there is no evidence to support Trump’s false assertions, which culminated in a deadly insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6. But Ell, a Republican precinct delegate in her state, said the 2020 election is one of the reasons she’s working to censure and remove Jason Roe from his role as the Michigan Republican Party’s executive director — specifically that Roe accepted the 2020 results, telling Politico that “the election wasn’t stolen” and that “there is no one to blame but Trump.”
Nearly six months after Trump lost to Biden, rejection of the 2020 election results — dubbed the “Big Lie” by many Democrats — has increasingly become an unofficial litmus test for acceptance in the Republican Party. In January, 147 GOP lawmakers — eight senators and 139 House members — voted in support of objections to the election results, and since then, Republicans from Congress to statehouses to local party organizations have fervently embraced the falsehood.

In Washington, normally chatty senators scramble to skirt the question, and internal feuding over who is to blame for the Jan. 6 insurrection has riven the House Republican leadership, with tensions between House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) and Rep. Liz Cheney of Wyoming, the No. 3 House Republican, spilling into public view. Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) is facing a Trump-aligned primary challenger in her 2022 race, inspired by her call for Trump to resign after the Jan. 6 attack and her later vote to convict him over his role in inciting the insurrection.

As far as Trump vs. Biden, or any other election, I'm not going to say it was rigged.

But Peters vs. James. I just don't know. I'm not going to say it was. But like I've said previously here on Buzzboard, I got a little side hustle serving papers, witnessing signatures, that sort of thing.

As most know, James was ahead until the inner cities came in. Too many in those neighborhoods said something along the lines of "I voted for the brother" to me for me not to ponder.

And I'll be honest. James was ahead until the inner cities came in. And just too many in those neighborhoods said something along the lines of "I voted for the brother" for me to not ponder.
Even if 100 people said that to you it would be irrelevant.

So do urban voters simply vote "for the Democrat" regardless or do they vote "for the brother"? I'm confused.

Anecdotal evidence doesn't mean shit.

MOTOWN: It seems that urban voters vote for Democrats, and rural voters vote for Republicans; regardless of race.
