They're all willing to say Frump won in 2020. None of them are sane or to be trusted

There is no good news about this budget. Republicans who support it should be ashamed.

A "moderate" Republican these days is one who sometimes, just for a fleeting moment, still feels a tad guilty about being a shithead. Passes quickly, though, like an ice cream headache.

Anyone ask him what the 44% of Lousiana's total population-36% of all non eldery residents- will do without Medicaid? Or should we make the question a popup in his son's porn tracker app?

We should also stop pretending that there are "moderate" Democrats. Fetterman comes to mind. So-called "moderate" Democrats are DINOs.

People need to know Democracy is at risk. We haven’t experienced that before. It means decreasing heath care and increasing prices. Harder to live our lives. Ref Pritzker

A “moderate” Republican is like a polite serial killer.

Remember “compassionate conservatives”? Yea, that was a hoot.

bossk538.bsky.social•3 days ago

Isn’t “compassionate conservative” one of those expressions like “jumbo shrimp”?

pizzmoe.bsky.social•3 days ago

Exactly

If one more journalist quotes Murkowski or Collins I'm going to scream.

Amen, you're never going to find three or four Republicans who will vote against anything they're doing no matter how crazy it is and how much they disagree with it

"Moderate Republican" was always code for the Plutocrat wing. They ran the show but never enacted far right policies, while needing the far right votes to pass unpopular bills.

Now the far right runs the show, and plutocrats tag along for their unpopular goodies.
