Indeed, at one time I could actually consider voting Republican depending on who was running. Not in this environment though, no way.

I am a registered republican who is ashamed and disgusted of the republican party. I hope that I live to see the day when our democracy punishes the republican party for the way they have abused their power. Whatever little money I have to put toward firing ALL of them I will do so. I really really do not believe in voting down party lines but the republicans have crossed the line and now I believe I have no choice but to vote all Democrats from now till the end of my life. If a 3rd party of moderate political ideology emerges I would probably go to that party but until that happens it is all democrats from now on.

Okay that said I hold out hope that ACB is going to recuse herself on some of the major cases coming before her like Affordable Health Care, Women's Rights, electoral issues and anything to do with Donald J. Trump if this election proves without a doubt that we the people fired Donald J. Trump. If she doesn't and democrats take the senate then there will be hell to pay for this abuse of power by the republican party. The balance of power is hopefully about to change. My message to republicans is that you just bought a ticket for a luxurious ride on the Titanic...

McConnell adjourned the senate until November 9 with no relief bill for Americans struggling due to Donny’s Disease.

ACB for life! (See what I did there?) That has got to be painful for the blew krew on Sowal.
This should tickle your racist loving heart.
Once E. Jean Carroll gets her court ordered trump DNA sample he will be a convicted rapist and will no longer be allowed to vote in Florida.

The destruction of the Republican party will likely hurt all Americans down the line. A single party dominating will eventually jump the tracks. A free press and an opposition party may keep us on track but too much has always happened behind closed doors in American politics.

The republican party is no longer. It was destroyed by McConnell and Trump. The lines that define a democracy were crossed and that hurts all of us. The old republican party is now the party of wealth and fear. I would not blame the democrats for jumping the tracks IF they take the executive branch and control the legislative branch however I will always hope that moderate and progressive politics can co-exist. If we the people demand to be represented instead of disrespected there will be no behind closed doors politics. A free press is possible and necessary but please go find one that is free of agenda. I don't think it will happen in my life time but a 3rd political party that stays free of extreme ideology otherwise known as keeping and open mind and centers itself on the middle class will emerge eventually. Until then and for now Biden/Harris will serve that function for ALL Americans.

I think the Lincoln Project will serve as an effective watchdog on both sides of the aisle.

There will be a big push to resurrect the GOP. I doubt it will ever be back to what is was until maybe a new generation comes along to oppose the dems. If it is to be purged of the fringe radicals like proud boys, qanon, christian zaelots, etc they still have to deal with a lot of spineless incumbents.
The dems will have to spend a lot of time and energy battling the lunatic fringe. I wouldn't be surprised to see law enforcement be increased on all fronts. Especially if there is violence.

IDK whether the Republican Party is at its end, but if it is damaged to the point that it may not be a dominate party then I think the opportunity opens for a viable Independent 3rd Party. Probably more Moderate.
