What You Hear is the Republican Party Crumbling Into Dust


 

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart

 

For once the “experts” were right. It has been a slow process, but the Republican Party is crumbling. Although its destruction began in 1981, Trump’s illegitimate presidency hurried its demise.

Most of today’s fake Republicans remained loyal to the worst president in American history until he began his baseless claim of “massive fraud” in the 2020 election, and organized the failed coup on January 6, 2021 while remaining in office.

With the 2024 campaign season in its beginnings, more right-wing politicians are abandoning Trump and his cult. Although this is undoubtedly a good thing, those who would replace him as their party’s leader are unfit for office and would be as bad or worse than Trump. In all of modern history, Republicans have proven themselves incapable of governing our nation. Reagan began our escalating national debt, Bush 41 continued his fiscal policy, Bush 43 also employed “trickle-down economics” and placed our nation in two illegal and unwinnable wars, while moving our nation close to a second great depression. Trump’s only accomplishment was to lower taxes for the super-rich and corporations, placing our nation in debt for several trillion dollars. His failure to lead us through the pandemic added to our economic devastation.

On Sunday, as his poll numbers continue to shrink, a desperate Ron DeSantis disputed Trump’s claim about the 2020 election.

"Whoever puts their hand on the Bible on Jan. 20 every four years is the winner," DeSantis told NBC News correspondent Dasha Burns in his first broadcast network interview since he launched his presidential campaign.

One of the declared Republican candidates for 2024, Chris Christie told the press that Trump was clearly defeated in 2020. Other hypocrites who supported Trump until he was indicted three times for felonies are now admitting that Trump clearly lost his bid for reelection.

Of course he has some support. Look at these names, names which belong to the worst people in the worst political party in history: Ted Cruz, Josh Hawley, Chuck Grassley, Ron Johnson, Jim Jordan, Matt Gaetz, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lauren Boebert, Steve Scalise, Kevin McCarthy, and others who clearly support the Neo-Nazi movement in America. Trump has been the leader of the white supremacist movement from day one. He has a lifelong history of racism, bigotry, and sexism. Criminals are forced to support each other to survive. The truth is their enemy, therefore, they rely on lies to convince the weak-minded they are trustworthy.

The once Grand Old Party has not existed for several years, and it’s never coming back. It committed a fatal act of suicide on January 20, 2017.

R.I.P. Party of Lincoln.
