Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Wyoming State Senator Files to Run Against Neocon NeverTrumper Liz Cheney in Primary ChallengeThanks to redridinghood. In a news release announcing his campaign Wednesday, the hard-line conservative state senator said he was running to oust Cheney for her vote to impeach former President Donald Trump for his role in inciting a riot at the United States Capitol on Jan. 6. "Wyoming was President Trump's best state both times he ran," Bouchard said in a statement announcing his campaign. "That's because Wyoming voters are strong conservatives who want our leaders to stand up for America, defend our freedoms, fight for our way of life and always put working people first as President Trump did." "Liz Cheney's long-time opposition to President Trump and her most recent vote for impeachment shows just how out of touch she is with Wyoming," he added. "Wyoming taxpayers need a voice in Congress who will stand up to Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats, and not give them cover. That's why I'm running for Congress."Bouchard had previously declared on FaceBook, after Cheney's impeachment vote: "I expect Never Trumpers to do this stuff. But Cheney should be run out of town, and back to Virginia for joining the blame game!" Cheney has already been censured by the Wyoming GOP for her party-flipping impeachment vote: "By announcing her decision to vote for impeachment Representative Cheney denied President Trump due process; she judged the 'evidence' before it was presented and refused to listen to the arguments made," the Wyoming GOP said in a statement last week.Meanwhile, the House Freedom Caucus is pressuring leadership to permit a debate about stripping Cheney of her #2 leadership position. "She did this for her own personal political gain," said Rep. Matt Rosendale. It was not a matter of conscience, the Montana freshman insisted. He told RealClearPolitics it was instead a betrayal meant "to elevate herself as one of the new leaders in the Republican Party," before pausing to add, "the 'New Republican party,' if you will." Who are these upstarts? According to Rosendale, they include those eager to put "the legacy of Trump behind them." He paused again, this time to clarify: "When I say legacy, I don't mean the legacy of the last 60 days that has been completely tainted and distorted."Purge her. They're joining with the left to brand 75 million Americans Uncharged Terrorists. Every time the neocon liberal Republican establishment people lose a primary contest, they defect to the Democrats to make sure the insurgent loses. That's what Liz Cheney did. She doesn't like the insurgent politics of Trump, so she followed the neocon/Rockefeller Republican pattern of joining with the far left to defeat an internal party rival. That's not how coalition politics are supposed to work. How it's supposed to work is this: We argue amongst each other, we even primary each other. But, within our own coalition, we accept the results of majority rule. If an establishment candidate wins, fine, the insurgents' supporters support the establishment candidate -- reluctantly, of course, but they still support him. And if the insurgent candidate wins, the establishment is required to accept the will of the majority and support that candidate. Again, reluctantly, but again, they still must support their coalition partners. As many commenters always -- rightly -- point out: We're always accepting the need to put internal party fights aside at the general election, and we always wind up voting for the Shit Sandwich we opposed, based on the promise that if and when our guy ever wins, the Establishment Corporatist Neocons will support our guy. But this promise is a lie. They never do support our guy. This is entirely a one-sided "partnership," where we have endless obligations to the self-declared "elite" and they have none whatsoever to us. The Rockefeller Republicans, the "Kennebunkport Konservatives" of the liberal Yankee Bush wing, the corporate-humping establishment Never -- N E V E R -- accept the basic premise of coalition politics that sometimes, your interparty rivals will win an interparty dispute, and you are obligated to accept their win. They never, ever respect an insurgent. They immediately begin scheming with Democrats to delegitimize that insurgent. They work with Democrats and the Deep State to enact a coup against him. In the case of Richard Mourdock, a Tea-Party aligned insurgent candidate who beat ancient establishment liberal fossil Richard Lugar, they actually endorse the Democrat in order to prevent their rival from winning. The Establishment wing of the GOP, and the grotesque corporate-sponsored "conservative" media that acts as its heralds, have now supported Democrats in the general election three cycles in a row -- 2016, 2018, and 2020. Some have done so overtly; most were too cowardly and dishonest to flatly state they were supporting the Democrat, so they did so by a thousand cuts. But support the Democrats they did. Because someone Not of the Corporate Body won an election. This is not, then, actual "coalition" politics, because one side of the coalition absolutely refuses the right of the other parts of the coalition to have any political voice at all. Any power given to the Establishment Neocon wing is just more power you're giving them for the next time you challenge them, and they decide, as is their standard operating procedure, to use the power you've given them to help the Democrats win and defeat your right to participate in representative politics at all. They are not allies. They are not coalition "partners." They aim to rule us, and if they cannot do so themselves, they will ally with the Democrats to make sure that the Democrats rule us. But make no mistake: No matter how it shakes out, the Establishment Corporate Neocons intend that you shall be ruled, by one master or another. They must be purged. They must be purged, or we must form our own party. 4ward with honor. A good question to ask Liz Cheney: Any real conservative in a media job should ask her, "If your Trump-supporting primary opponent beats you, will you respect the will of the voters and support him?" She'll hem and haw. They never do support any Republican from the Republican Wing of the Republican Party. Only fellow Kennebunkport "Konservatives." Comments(Jump to bottom of comments)1

Willowed:
OK, gang, I have to make a serious decision, and I'd like some input before I finalize it. (Yeah, I know -- seriousness from the Horde? But one can still hope.) OK, I'm 77, and several years ago I had a stroke that hit the visual part of my brain. I am fine to the right, but have little or no peripheral vision to the left. That wasn't too significant until my husband died, because he did all the driving. But now I'm thinking it might be best to give up my driver's license, despite the loss of freedom. This town has a couple of taxi services, and my youngest sister seems willing to take me anywhere I want to go.

"But make no mistake: No matter how it shakes out, the Establishment Corporate Neocons intend that you shall be ruled, by one master or another.
They must be purged. They must be purged, or we must form our own party." ------------------- The Democrats go further and further left, year after year. Do the leftmost elements of the party split off and form their own party? No, of course not. They stick around and drag the whole party left, to the point that Segregationist Pal Joe Biden now won't shut up about how bad white supremacists are, and has appointed a disgusting mentally ill tranny to make major decisions about the nation's health. Hell, the Democrats are so good at unity-by-moving-left that the Socialists who left the party (Sanders) almost won the nomination. So no, I'm not in favor of a third party. I'm in favor of controlling the GOP and forcing the Romneys, the Neocons, and the Frenches to make the should-I-stay-or-should-I-go decision. Let them formed a doomed third party that will fail.

"They must be purged. They must be purged, or we must form our own party."
I like the idea of a new party. While there may be advantages of trying to reform the GOP into what WE want it to be, it'll never happen. Start with a clean slate. Start taking state seats. Start getting House seats. When there are enough of the new party's elected representatives, and even though we may not (yet) have a majority of the House or Senate, they will NEED our support. Coalition style government. I honestly thing that this would be the only (peaceful) way to save our great country. Posted by: Our Country is Screwed at January 20, 2021 02:33 PM (N39Ws) 91

If you think it's time to give up the license, your call. I knew a 95-yr old woman who had a severely restricted license: she was limited to daytime driving, in clear weather, within 5 miles of her home. (this was about 30 years ago). this let her attend church, go to her dance lessons, bridge club, the library, the store. Maybe something similar for you as you consider the big step? i have begun developing cataracts, so I already severely limit my night driving, and rain at night?

If you can afford a new car and have someone help set up the safety features specifically for you, you can retain your independence for a few more years.

Taking over the GOP is unlikely. At the least, the time required would probably be no less, possibly more, than killing it off with a new party.
It's two extremely daunting prospects, neither is likely to succeed. But it's silly to pretend that re-making the GOP would be any less difficult than destroying it via a new party. Posted by: rhomboid at January 20, 2021 02:37 PM (OTzUX) 149

As far as I'm concerned, there is only one way forward, ditching the GOP and forming a new America First/Nationalist Party.
To take the GOP over would involve essentially setting up a completely separate sect within the GOP and then attriting the GOPers and swamp rats over time. This sect would need it's own funding, inner and outer party apparatus, etc. and wall itself off from the parent GOP. That's a lot of time and wasted effort and what will happen to that sect is is what happened to the last attempt at a sect. The Tea Party movement was subsumed, infiltrated and scattered within three two election cycles. Which is how We Got Trump. Posted by: Thomas Bender at January 20, 2021 02:39 PM (x4nlo) 172

I'm in favor of controlling the GOP and forcing the Romneys, the Neocons, and the Frenches to make the should-I-stay-or-should-I-go decision. Let them formed a doomed third party that will fail. We'll control the GOP, the party that actually wins stuff on occasion.
I remember, some time ago, there was talk of splitting the country. When Hillary looked like she'd win in 2016 there was talk of Texas leaving and other states following. When Trump won, there was talk of Cali leaving and the remainder of the coastal states following. There were always people who said, NO! It's all ours. Now we have, effectively, nothing. Patriots will never control the GOP again. You can fight a forlorn battle or look for a way to win. Posted by: I used to have a different nic at January 20, 2021 02:40 PM (T7iTv) 182
I disagree with the notion that a third party would give Dems a supermajority in the short-term. The GOP has a branding problem, and one that isn't going to go away as long as the Cheneys and the McConnells and the Rubios of the world continue to stab us in the back in favor of their corporate donors. An America first party which adopted Trumpism as a platform would probably draw a significant chunk of dem voters who would never pull the lever for a republican.

Your new party will be immediately labeled Insurrectionist Terrorist Neo Nazis. No public rallies, no forums on the internet, no associating with it without losing your job. At least with "Republicans" the R's are themselves *forced* to continue to try to say it's a legitimate party.

The GOP Establishment, which encompasses the NeverTrumps, RINOs, neocons and other Dem Lite variations, will never be purged. We're essentially a one-party state now but the Left needs a second party to maintain the illusion of an opposition. The money will keep coming in and it will bury any largescale insurgency--which would, of course, be branded as white supremacist.

When a country goes through an internal purge its about as ugly as ugly gets.
Bascially they scape goat a class or classes and do horrible things to them to send the unspoken message to anyone on the fence. Join or die. The Chinese ate people. Literally. Not from famine. But because of their political class. They had an organized hierarchy of bad and if you were the 5th type, they'd eat you. Heart and liver. Served you up to other citizens. In some parts of China they are still boastful over how many people they ate. The Chinese have all those weird folk notions about consuming your enemies makes you stronger. Weird diet fetishes. So their insanity manifested itself in that way. The Germans: "purity", organization and industrialization, so you get death camps and industrialized murder. For the U.S. - well I dunno.

And your vote matters much more for your state rep than anyone on the federal ballot. It's up to GOP voters in every state - but especially in swing states - to force their representatives to lock down the election systems so that fraud is impossible.

42 Empire, here's a small bit of advice on cab drivers. Take the cab a few times. If you get a driver you like (prompt, doesn't have b.o., speaks English) get the drivers card. Most carry them and they all have a cell phone. Use that driver regularly, without calling dispatch, just call them on their cell. Most are on a lease and it doesn't matter if dispatch handles it. I had a guy up in Erie that I would call if weather was real bad (city plows blocking the parking lot approach) and he would even make a State Store run for me if needed. Tip fairly.

McConnell is the worst. He would have a majority today if he had one shred of integrity*. I hope all his lieutenants are primaried, if elections still matter, and they eachvoe to replace him as leader and force their cuck opponents to commit to supporting them.

There are many more like her. It is time to purge especially in the deep red states. Is McConnell up for a vote? If so, anybody who votes for McConnell as leader should be targeted. It's Trump's party. Posted by: Jesus Built My Hot Rod at January 20, 2021 02:50 PM (JtRzJ) 291
Is the dude primarying Cheney talking about the stolen election? No? Then he is just window dressing on the rigged system and drugs to anesthetize conservatives. Until we have leaders who can boldly proclaim what happened and demand that the Dems address their theft, I do not see any actions like this mattering.

The GOPe is made up of careerists who worship process, 'institutions,' and by extension, Washington DC.
I think I've said before that, prior to 2016, I read an article on a "conservative" magazine which stated that Socialism had won and that the right should spend the next twenty years arguing that they were better managers of big government. The author was Matthew Continetti. I'm pretty sure that he got that argument from his father-in-law, Bill Kristol, and that it's actually the common view among the GOPe. They want to be the slightly more competent technocrats before jumping over to a job in big finance or lobbying. Trump embarrassed them by proving that there was another way to win. Posted by: Colorado Alex in Exile at January 20, 2021 02:51 PM (jOcSX) 300
Trump took it over in six months with a good slogan and gigantic balls.
Trump never took over anything. He was neutralized from day 1. His own party would not recess the Senate lest he have recess appointments. The executive branch thwarted him at every turn. His executive orders will be undone. His only lasting achievement will be in the courts, which was allowed because it is what McConnell wanted done. TL;DR version: If Trump had taken over the party, we wouldn't be having this conversation. Posted by: bear with asymmetrical balls at January 20, 2021 02:51 PM (H5knJ) 301
Except he never really did. Sure, he won the presidency, but McConnell and Ryan made sure to undermine him where they could, and too many GOP governors sided with McConnell over Trump. McConnell's failure in picking senate candidates is the reason that the Dems are now the majority.
Posted by: Colorado Alex in Exile at January 20, 2021 02:47 PM (jOcSX) ------- Well, that's why I said that the takeover was the easy part. Trump did complete the takover, but then he's gotta be the boss. His responsibility starting the morning after the election was to show McConnell, Ryan, and the rest of the Swamp who's boss. He didn't do it, and too many people just assumed that he was doing it (via 4D underwater reverse Manitoba-rules Q chess) or that he would do it (because he's Mr. Art-of-the-Deal).

Pete, geez. Trump took over exactly one thing - the presidential nomination. An astonishing feat in itself, unique in modern history.
And he didn't do it with "slogans" - you're thinking of the empty suits you probably find less distasteful, that's what they do, and few of them are anything more than slogans. He did it with obvious, sensible policy approaches backed by large majorities of Americans, some of which the GOP dishonestly claimed to back for nearly 2 decades. CO Alex has already pointed out the other obvious thing, the party gave him less support than any party has given a president in modern times - even Carter had more actual support, in terms of votes that mattered, on the Hill, than Trump did. Every part of Trump's agenda that required legislative buy-in was smothered, apart from a reconciliation-based tax cut (soon to disappear).

I really don't think this is a binary choice: new party v. reform GOP. Everybody has a different comfort level. Go with what you can do. Reformers in the GOP can take action within. New party can weaken GOP and Dems by bringing in America First believers currently in both parties and build from there. A new party and a reformer in charge GOP could merge/coalesce. But you'll never know unless you try. If you are waiting for a sure thing, well, you ARE doomed then.

Imagine how bad things would have been if Trump *didn't* hire the best people, or if he *didn't* write the book on negotiation!
I have no idea what Trump does or doesn't know about negotiation (given that he was seldom given a chance to negotiate), but your average GOP voter clearly doesn't understand negotiation. If you can't or won't get up from the table and walk away, and the other side knows so, you are going to be bent over that table. GOP voters can continue insisting that getting fucked doesn't hurt so bad once you get used to it, or they can try a strategy that doesn't involve showing up in the general election no matter what. GOP voters love to complain about blacks being on the Dem plantation. How are GOP voters any different? Posted by: bear with asymmetrical balls at January 20, 2021 03:00 PM (H5knJ) 363
Trump did complete the takover, but then he's gotta be the boss.
You can't be the boss when literally everyone you hire is working to undermine you. And for some government positions, you can't just hire anyone because the laws and regulations are so convoluted and difficult to understand, you need someone with experience who knows what it means. I had to read Title 10 concerning my military retirement pay, and it took 3 hours of research to gain a basic understanding of how the law applies to my particular situation. Laws are written in the worst legalese imaginable for a reason. Posted by: Cat Ass Trophy at January 20, 2021 03:00 PM (dNzKv) 364

He jumped curbs, clipped a street sign, blew through intersections as the light was changing, almost went down a one way street, tire squeal, you name it. All in a 10 minute ride.

In 2008, when John McCain, who the base loathed in direct proportion to how much he loathed the base, got the nomination, we were told to shut up and fall in line. Also work harder to get your own candidate elected.
In 2012, the same was said about Romney, but now with extra sneering to do the hard work on the precinct level to win. So the base listened. The base did what they were told to do. And Our Betters lost their ever loving shit. Everyone is fond of asking when the Democrats accepted the results of the 2016 election. An equally fair question is when did the NROniks accept the results of the 2016 primaries? Posted by: alexthechick - Boobs and hysteria at January 20, 2021 03:02 PM (GbPPJ) 383

There's no way a third party could get off the ground. It would be censored from the internet and anyone donating would risk being placed on a list for doxxing and who knows what else.
In Germany they started a party that is basically "Germany First" the AfD, mainly hoping to stem the flood of immigration and get Germany out of the EU. The 3 other main parties (center to left) all consistently work together to stop the AfD no matter what. It's the one thing that unites the other parties -- globalism first. And of course their media helps calling the AfD racist and extreme at every chance. And that's in a parliamentary system, where smaller parties have a chance. I doubt a new party could even get as far as that. The dems and GOP would work together to stop an America First party at all costs, with the media and social media helping them along the way. I'd like to be wrong, though. Posted by: brak at January 20, 2021 03:11 PM (cG+eD) 437

King County erased Christmas, Easter and Hanukkah from woke, taxpayer-funded calendar Thanksgiving is omitted from the calendar, replaced with Native American Heritage Month. Christmas isn't mentioned on the calendar, either. Instead, it celebrates International Human Rights Day on Dec. 10. Hanukkah most definitely doesn't get a mention, even though Jews are an underrepresented minority in King County. Acknowledging Jews stopped being progressive around the start of the anti-Semitic Boycott-Divest-Sanction movement. But in April, the calendar celebrates Arab American Heritage Month, though no mention of Jewish American Heritage Month in May. https://bit.ly/3iu3dpo Posted by: Anonosaurus Wrecks, Tyrannosaur Wrangler at January 20, 2021 03:11 PM (VVEnO) 440

A new party starts at the state and local levels. Winning majorities for school boards and county commissioners. Runs candidates for the state house and senate. The state level will be where the real action takes place. Election reform will be top on the list. Throw out the electronic voting machines, put real teeth and enforcement in place to support observers at the precinct level when votes are counted, and then the Dems take a beating. That's the only way things will get done right for the entire country.

Bushites realize that if convicting Trump in an impeachment trial after he's out of office is held as Constitutional, and at this point my bet is Roberts say political question not gonna touch it, then W is next up. Because, you see, substantial portions of the Left think he's a war criminal and still want him charged.
=== But there's only one party. Bush is in that party. He knows he's safe. Forever. So is his family. Also, they impeached some dude I think afterwards. 1880s or so. He resigned but they impeached him anyway because we can't let him get away with that. And they can impose the penalty of disqualification for future office, if they want. Our government is a collection of sociopaths. Take for example the debt. That's, at minimum, how much they stole from us so far. They really, really, really, don't want to stop.

IIRC, Richard Mourdock was the candidate of the establishment in Indiana, although sympathetic to the Tea Party as well. Lugar was steeped in Capitol Hill culture and had neglected to attend to his constituency back home. One amusing aspect of that was when it was revealed that for 35 years Lugar had been making use of a house he'd sold in 1977 as a voting address. Lugar didn't just lose the primary, either. He was shellacked by a 3:2 margin, quite rare for an incumbent.
NB, Lugar did not have a liberal voting record. He was to the left of the median in the Senate Republican caucus, but, per the American Conservative Union, voted the right way about 77% of the time. Of course, you could argue that he votes the right way given the impoverished agenda congressional committees generate, an agenda with which he was at home. The most jagged problem with Lugar was that at the age of 80 and with a life expectancy of 8 years, he wanted to spend 6 of those years on Capitol Hill. (He died less than seven years after losing that primary in 2012). Posted by: Art Deco at January 20, 2021 03:17 PM (1BrBu) 481

I disagree with the notion that a third party would give Dems a supermajority in the short-term.
How long have these scare stories been around? I remember them well from the early Tea Party days, when Republicans were panic-stricken at the threat of a new party arising. "No! Don't do it! That'll hand the Democrats a majority for YEARS! Be smart - take over the GOP instead!" How well did that plan work? I can't remember if the same argument arose when Perot ran for president, but just think - that was almost 30 years ago. Over a generation. If a new party had been started then, or even in 2008, the "short term" would be over and the new party might be winning elections today. Instead, everyone played it safe and now you have nothing.

It turns out that much of what I was told regarding that party really was true. Their leadership despises working class people. They demonstrate it time and time again.

421 I do hope the Bushites realize that if convicting Trump in an impeachment trial after he's out of office is held as Constitutional, and at this point my bet is Roberts say political question not gonna touch it, then W is next up. Because, you see, substantial portions of the Left think he's a war criminal and still want him charged.
Also if post Presidency impeachment and conviction is a thing, I say we did up Woodrow Wilson and FDR and have at it. Posted by: alexthechick - Boobs and hysteria at January 20, 2021 03:08 PM (GbPPJ) ***** Interesting point, but Bush served two terms, so he is pretty much not in the game anymore. And the left *hated* him while he was in office. But as soon as he left, the noise they made about impeaching him for war crimes etc. etc. etc. just faded away, and the "strange new respect" was found. But, Trump only served one term. He is eligible to run again, so they consider him a threat still. Hence the destroy him via impeachment after he leaves office will be a big goal of the left.

Withholding your consent by withholding your vote wouldn't be the same as assenting to communist rule. It would be a means to an end. Killing off a major party is easy. Living with the potential aftermath, perhaps not so much. Clearly the GOP has no problem with the direction of the Democrat party, only the speed, so we'll end up in the same place anyways.

Unfortunately as rhomboid so frequently points out, there is no evidence of any sort of pushback to the woke madness, certainly not any kind that would rise to the level of a voter revolt.

It's not like the text of Trump's speech on 6 January was a state secret. Chao, deVos, the 10 Vichy Republicans in Congress, and a mess of others recycled a fraudulent media meme that was false and they had no excuse to not know it was false. It's either gross carelessness or studied mendacity on their part. For that reason alone, Cheney is properly stripped of her position. Get rid of McCarthy as well, as he defended her. Get rid of McConnell, as he also generated false memes (just memes more carefully crafted).

Note about the Republican floor leaders and whips in both chambers:
1. McConnell: held elective office or political patronage jobs for 47 of the last 52 years. Had a stint as an associate in a private law firm prior to 1975. 2. John Thune: has held elective office, legislative staff jobs, and positions with political NGO's since age 24. 3. Kevin McCarthy: has been a legislative aide or elected official without interruption since 1987 (when he was 23 years old). 4. Steve Scalise: silent about his employment history between the ages of 20 and 32. Has held elected office since age 32. IOW, the Republican leadership has employment histories you'd expect of Democratic pols. Posted by: Art Deco at January 20, 2021 03:27 PM (1BrBu) 562

Her husband
evidently put some sort of vacation property in Jackson Hole in their name. That's their Wyoming 'residence'. If she ever lived in Wyoming f/t year round it would have been in 1977 and 1978, neither before nor after. Posted by: Art Deco at January 20, 2021 03:40 PM (1BrBu) 591
The national nightmare is over. MAGA is dead.

She was born in Wisconsin while her father was in graduate school. The
family decamped to Washington in 1968 and stayed there until the end of 1976. Her father was employed first as a congressional aide, then on Gerald Ford's WH staff. Her father was elected to Congress in 1978 and it was back to Washington. Posted by: Art Deco at January 20, 2021 03:41 PM (1BrBu) 593
Her secondary diploma was issued by a high school in Fairfax County, Va
and she had her tertiary schooling in Colorado Springs and Chicago. From thence, it was back to Washington. Posted by: Art Deco at January 20, 2021 03:41 PM (1BrBu) 594

All told, about 3/4 of her live
has been spent in the Washington commuter belt. She was never an ordinary local (of which there are millions in Washington). Her husband had a partnership in a BigLaw firm with a 'government relations' practice, her father was an office-holder, and she had media gigs. It would be hard to find somebody swampier.

The only agreeable things about
her is that she's remained married and she has five kids. It required an incredible sense of entitlement to run for office in Wyoming. No clue why party officials and the voting public accepted her. Posted by: Art Deco at January 20, 2021 03:42 PM (1BrBu) 598
Really odd. Just today -- yes, 20 January, the day Lyin' Biden was inaugurated -- I was given information on how to sign up to be notified when the vaccine would be available near me. Just today, the entire staff at my dialysis clinic were taking turns to run out and get their vaccines. Wow! Isn't it just amazing how Lyin' Biden turned the whole thing around even before he took the oath of office.

She proves that unfortunately name recognition works in American politics. She couldnt tell you 3 things about Wyoming, but her name is Cheney so the rubes votes for her.
Cuomo is another example. A retard with a well known name gets to be governor. Posted by: Joe XiDen at January 20, 2021 03:45 PM (lcJo1) Posted by: Paladin at January 20, 2021 03:56 PM (Br9Gi) 601
>>OK, I'm 77, and several years ago I had a stroke that hit the visual part of my brain. I am fine to the right, but have little or no peripheral vision to the left. That wasn't too significant until my husband died, because he did all the driving. But now I'm thinking it might be best to give up my driver's license, despite the loss of freedom.
Opinions, my fellow Morons? Posted by: empire 1 You might check with the therapy departments at your local health systems. Some have Driver evaluation programs where they can put you in a driver simulator and give you a recommendation. Posted by: Aviator at January 20, 2021 04:18 PM (0FTCx) 602

See, I think at this point a third party option is actually viable now. Because even among Trump/MAGA/Conservatives, the Republican brand is so toxic and corrupt, its not worth saving.
So many on other boards have announced they'll refuse to vote Republican again. And I don't blame them. I mean why is Cheney still in office at this point? You attack your party's leader and you still have your position? That's what's wrong with the GOP. And notice, none of the other 9 traitors, or the 80 or so who voted to certify are facing any discipline whatsoever. Add this to Pence and Cocaine Mitch's betrayals, and there's no reason for us to vote for them anymore. They've never come through on our priorities. 50 years of Roe V Wade. Now a decade of Obamacare. And no action. If Trump starts a 3rd party, and I pray he does, it'll kill the zombie GOP once and for all. Posted by: Iblis at January 20, 2021 04:39 PM (abOpZ) 605
The corrupt local GOP in Wyoming mounted a primary challenge to him - their own incumbent state senator - last November.

I keep getting email surveys from the GOP. Two of the questions are (paraphrase) Do you endorse the policies of the Republican Party? and Do you support the Republican Party? My answer is Yes, I support the policies and No, I don't support the party. Why should I? The party doesn't support me, they just want my money. (which they aren't getting, the grifters.)

I've said it before and I'll say it again: the need to purge the neocons/GOPe or start our own third party needs to take immediate precedence over vanquishing the Democrats. There's no way we can effectively engage our existential external enemy while they still have saboteurs in our own ranks. There's no practical difference between being ruled by the Dems or the neocons/GOPe, so I'm entirely untroubled and unmoved by the prospect of ceding races and seats to Dems at the expense of neocon/GOPe candidates.
Activating the Republican coalition to win elections is like launching nuclear missiles: all coalition parties have to turn their key. The GOPe/neocons refused to turn their key for Trump. We won without them, because we're by far the biggest segment of the coalition, but they nonetheless were able to use their undue influence to tank Trump's presidency. Well, now it's our turn to withhold consent. I refuse to turn the key for any neocons, RINOs, or GOPe trash. Not anymore. Not ever again.
