This is an interesting case because he's neutral when it comes to Donald Trump, he's more of an opportunist

When they dig deep into this I fear that they’ll discover a lot of GOP involvement with 6 January. And if it happens to be the truth, backed by substantial evidence, the whole Republican Party should be dismantled!!
Ha - I had an amusing thought this morning - they will have to trim Donnie's hair in prison, no? I'd drop dime on a pay per view of that.
Often, it isn't even what's happening that matters; it's who is saying it and what they're basing it on. Right after Jan 6, conservative writer Paul Sperry was saying that a busload of Antifa left-wingers were the ones at the Capitol that actually caused all the problems. Sperry was basing it on the words of who he called "an unnamed former FBI agent.".........and Trump supporters were apparently delighted to take that as 'proof.' Extreme partisanship knows no bounds. I'm still waiting for a partisan (either left or right wing) to admit to being wrong based on 'evidence they subsequently learned to the contrary.' Hasn't happened yet.
I won’t post the link because it s behind a paywall, but trump has told his former White House doctor that he wants to run in 2024. Paraphrasing, he said he has the unique ability to get things done, and doesn’t care if he pisses people off. This was in Business Insider magazine.
Dream on, dream on. Again, what does being a "conservative" have to do with these crazies? Conservative is about fiscal responsibility, control of taxation and government overreach. Why does Paul Sperry get attention, when Tim Ryan's rational eloquent speech gets buried?
I wish someone would simply make a list of the things that he got done, I mean, besides lining the pockets of the rich and building a few miles of useless wall that you and I paid for. Maybe if I understood his accomplishments, I wouldn't be so dumbfounded by his asinine actions.

Proud Boys members known as 'milkshake' arrested in relation to Trump's Capitol riot. Proud Boys member named Milkshake accused of shouting ‘let’s take the f***ing Capitol!’ is arrested excerpt: "Daniel Lyons Scott of Florida has been identified as a Proud Boy named “Milkshake” and charged on a number of counts including assault on a federal officer, according to charging documents released by the FBI. According to the court papers, which cite a video from The Wall Street Journal, during a scene involving a group of Proud Boys one person can be heard shouting the violent phrase before another person retorts “let’s not f***ing yell that alright?”. A man identified as Proud Boys leader Ethan Nordean is then recorded saying, “It was Milkshake, man, you know . . . Idiot!”, according to the documents. Mr Scott was arrested on Thursday in connection to the riot and had an initial court appearance in Tampa."
Trump is resuming his rallies. Trump planning rallies in Ohio and Florida this summer - CNNPolitics excerpt: ""We'll be doing one in Florida, we're going to do one in Ohio, we're going to do one in North Carolina," the 45th President told the right-wing media outfit One America News in an interview Thursday, adding that he would release a rally schedule "relatively soon." "We'll be announcing them very soon over the next week or two," Trump said. Aides close to the ex-President's political operation previously told CNN that Trump has been eager to return to the rally stage since earlier this year and had tasked a small group of advisers to look into the logistics of planning such events. The freewheeling MAGA rallies -- some of which ran more than two hours in below-freezing temperatures near the end of his 2020 campaign -- have long been Trump's primary way of galvanizing his core supporters and generating headlines."
Maricopa County will need new voting machines after GOP's audit, Arizona secretary of state says excerpt: "The audit itself is an extraordinarily partisan effort after Arizona Republicans spent months questioning the accuracy of President Joe Biden's narrow win in the state while boosting former President Donald Trump's lie that the election was stolen from him. The recount operation has been dogged by controversy and conspiracy theories since Day One, as state and federal experts and law enforcement officials have questioned the legality and prudence of the auditors and their efforts. The Justice Department and election experts have warned that some of their proposed processes could violate federal law, while auditors' searches for things like bamboo and secret watermarks have drawn scorn and mockery. Before the audit, Arizona and Maricopa County conducted numerous accuracy tests and hired two independent outside companies to conduct a forensic review of the election results; the reviews all confirmed that the county system performed properly, election officials said."
Trump justice department secretly seized CNN journalist’s phone records excerpt: "In a 13 May letter, the justice department informed CNN’s Pentagon correspondent, Barbara Starr, that the department had seized two months’ worth of phone and email records, between 1 June and 31 July 2017. The letter confirmed that the justice department had pursued records related to Starr’s Pentagon extension number, the CNN Pentagon booth number, and her home and cellphone number. Officials also obtained records from Starr’s work and personal email addresses. “CNN strongly condemns the secret collection of any aspect of a journalist’s correspondence, which is clearly protected by the first amendment,” said CNN’s president, Jeff Zucker, a published statement. “We are asking for an immediate meeting with the justice department for an explanation.” The move highlighted the aggressive trend of federal investigators under the Trump administration targeting journalists involved in leak investigations, hoping to identify sources of disclosures of classified information. Two weeks ago, the Washington Post revealed that Trump’s justice department had similarly obtained the call records of three Washington Post journalists who worked on a July 2017 story about the FBI’s investigation of Russia. In 2018, the New York Times reporter Ali Watkins, who covered the federal leak investigation of aide James A Wolfe, was notified by government officials that her email and phone records had also been seized. In all cases, content of the phone calls and emails made was not obtained."
Several steps down from the countries where journalists are disappeared or just killed outright-----but the connection is/was there perhaps in anticipation of trumps second term, if one cares to extrapolate possible intention. Oh--but it could NEVER happen here. And of course, neither could a person that lived his whole life harassing women, lying about anything and everything, cheating people that worked for him. A person that was so crass that he would make fun of the disabled, start a phony school, after which he chose to pay TWENTY FIVE MILLION dollars rather than defend himself in court, denigrate anyone and everyone that had so temerity to question or critisize him, etc,etc,etc,etc,etc,etc,etc,etc,etc----I think the point has been made by me and many others that trump has always been a low life motherfucker without a shred of decency in that bloated body of his ,who was just lucky enough to have had crooked ancestors that set him up for life , so that he never had to sink to the level he deserves, which is that of low level criminal and street hustler. I f there's any justice in this country, the piece of shit will live out his days exactly where he deserves to be--in a federal prison. And that goes for the rest of his family and in laws too.
Yet one more of many, MANY examples of REPUBLICAN HYPOCRISY. If a Dem does "X" - it's a huge crime and needs full prosecution and punishment. But if it's a REPUB. that does the very same "X" - well ........ it was justifiable and really no "big deal." That's the BOOK DEFINITION of hypocrisy. And it's a major factor in the corrosion and downfall of numerous countries and "civilizations."
