the republican party has sold its soul

[dherd]

The reason, I guess, is that the rot that has brought us to the brink of Senator Roy Moore began long ago. Starting with Sarah Palin and the spread of Fox News, the G.O.P. traded an ethos of excellence for an ethos of hucksterism.

You know it’s interesting there have been several Republicans who have been against Moore from the start. Before the allegations came out. He wasn’t the choice in the primary. Ryan and McConnell both have been outspoken against him. Trump didn’t support him at first either.

The issue is he isn’t dropping out and the people of Alabama are probably going to vote for him. What exactly can the GOP do about it? Trump is for him but the GOP establishment can’t stand him either.

So please enlighten us what can they do to stop a lawful election from taking place?

the issue is not stopping a lawful election, but let me think, oh, yeah, how about the banana republican party NOT ELECTING HIM

The RNC could refuse to spend money backing him. cheetos could refrain from supporting him, the kentucky turtle could speak up.
