    Yet they’ve renominated one of those who has never won the popular vote and almost as rare lost reelection as an incumbent.

    No answers. No plans. Zero leadership. Just please don’t vote

    I had to laugh at MTG's comment. After all, so is Trump, and yet they all support him. Birds of a feather flock together. He associates himself with White Nationalists, conspiracy theorists, nutjobs and criminals. Of course someone like Loomer would be his new bestie. She gives him the attention he doesn't get from his wife, and she is as crazy and hate spewing as him.

    Tension surfaced this week when multiple high-ranking Republicans told Axios they want to repeal the Inflation Reduction Act's Medicare drug price negotiations next year if they prevail in the elections.

    • The law requires the next president to negotiate prices for some drugs, after the first round of talks yielded agreements to lower the list prices of 10 widely used drugs this year.

    the most useless group of people in history…they do nothing for Americans

    House Republicans on Wednesday defeated their own plan to avert a government shutdown at the end of the month, with the party divided over the length of a short-term funding bill and what, if anything, should be attached to it.

    It was an embarrassing blow to Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., who had yanked the same funding package off the floor last week amid growing GOP defections, only to watch it collapse on Wednesday in a vote that seemed doomed from the start.


    The vote was 202-220 with two members voting present. In all, fourteen Republicans voted against the package, and three Democrats — Reps. Jared Golden of Maine, Marie Gluesenkamp Perez of Washington and Don Davis of North Carolina — voted for it.

    Thirteen days before money runs out for the federal government, there is still no bipartisan plan to stave off a shutdown. While the GOP-led House could try again, the focus now likely shifts to the Senate, where leaders in both parties agree a shutdown would be disastrous weeks before the election.

    Serious question for the conservatives on this board.

    Hypothetically if Trump loses this election:

    1) What direction do you see the Republican party going? Doubling down on a Trump endorsed MAGA candidate for 2028? Or choosing a more traditional Republican?

    2) What direction would you like to see the Republican party go?

    the party is toast

    the cult won’t magically become less radical or deplorable, and they won’t galvanize behind some milquetoast sane republican who doesn’t believe simple things like the election wasn’t stolen or whatever daily baseless conspiracy the right cooks up

    freaking Royce White won a primary by 9 points and is their Senate candidate

    a laughably bad candidate like Herschel Walker won his primary by 55 points in 2022

    the NCGOP is standing behind Mark Robinson

    the republican party is cooked
