Another Real Republican Endorses Biden

That's part of what he's on trial for in Georgia and Washington, DC.

Really? IF they thought he incited an insurrection why were charges not brought immediatly in 2021, or even 2022? Why wait until 2023? That's rhetorical. I know the answer.

Because this stuff takes a while? The Tree of Life shooting (gunman with easy access to gun murdered old people because they were JewS) happened in 2018, and he wasn't convicted or sentence until 2023. Federal trial, BTW.

Yes, but the charges were brought against him long before 2023. Like, within days of the shooting.

And yet it still took a while despite the evidence being immediately available. Thanks for making my point, sweetums.

I think the point is way, way beyond you.

President Trump did not incite an insurrection, otherwise he would have been charged and convicted, I'd hope.

Well, maybe because they knew that whenever they indicted Trump, Republicans would say it was politically motivated, so they tried to assemble an airtight case first. And for what it's worth, plenty of Democrats criticized Merrick Garland for dragging his feet on the investigation before he appointed the special prosecutor. Things moved much more rapidly after that.

Talk about your non sequiters...

Fixed that whole thing for you.

Who's your source? The Gateway Pundit? I hear they're very reliable.

The Gasbag Pundit still exists? I thought they would be bankrupt and out of commission by now.

You can NEVER indict Trump, because it will be politically motivated, whether or not he is elected, not elected, running for office.

Also, you can NEVER talk about gun control, because that would be taking advantage of a tragedy, either recent or in the distant past.

Former Republican Speaker of the House Paul Ryan announced he would not vote for Trump, saying Trump didn't have the character for the job. He wouldn't commit to voting for Biden due to policy differences. Trump responded by calling Ryan the weakest and most incompetent House Speaker in history and added that he should be fired from his position at Fox News.

Another uniparty RINO.

It’s disappointing to watch an increasing number of Republicans fall in line behind former president Donald Trump. This includes some of his fiercest detractors, such as U.S. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu and former U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr, who raised eyebrows during a recent interview by vowing to support the “Republican ticket.” This mentality is dead wrong. Yes, elections are a binary choice. Yes, serious questions linger about President Biden’s ability to serve until the age of 86. His progressive policies aren’t to conservatives’ liking.

But the GOP will never rebuild until we move on from the Trump era, leaving conservative (but not angry) Republicans like me no choice but to pull the lever for Biden. At the same time, we should work to elect GOP congressional majorities to block his second-term legislative agenda and provide a check and balance. The alternative is another term of Trump, a man who has disqualified himself through his conduct and his character. The headlines are ablaze with his hush-money trial over allegations of improper record-keeping for payments to conceal an affair with an adult-film star. Most important, Trump fanned the flames of unfounded conspiracy theories that led to the horrific events of Jan. 6, 2021. He refuses to admit he lost the last election and has hinted he might do so again after the next one. Trump has shown us who he is. We should believe him. To think he is going to change at the age of 77 is beyond improbable. The healing of the Republican Party cannot begin with Trump as president (and that’s aside from the untold damage that potentially awaits our country). A forthcoming Time magazine cover story lays out in stark terms “the outlines of an imperial presidency that would reshape America and its role in the world.”

Unlike Trump, I’ve belonged to the GOP my entire life. This November, I am voting for a decent person I disagree with on policy over a criminal defendant without a moral compass.

It's reassuring to know that there are still a few people with principles in the Republican party like Duncan and Liz Cheney. I disagree with his comments about Biden's policies (some of which I edited out of the part of the story I quoted) but he still understands the idea of country over party, something that seems to elude Mitch McConnell, Bill Barr, and many others.

Let's not talk about the millions of democrat voters who are supporting Trump.

Josh McKoon, Chairman of the Georgia State Republican party has had enough. He weighs in on Geoff Duncan today.

Not anymore, Geoff.
