The Death of the Republican Party as We Know It




Don't be misled by Mitch McConnell's song and dance routine; he has no intention of holding Donald Trump accountable. Other than the few Republicans who have come out against the attempted coup, none of them will vote for impeachment. 
 

The Republican Senate will not convict Donald Trump from the failed coup attempt on January 6, 2021. The Republican Party Americans once knew no longer exists. Its four year deterioration can be traced back to the corrupt Donald Trump, and the Republicans in both the Senate and House that enabled him. Trump is gone, yet the corruption continues. 

Today’s Republican Party consists of far right extremists, white nationalists, insurrectionists, and Q-Anon members. These extremist groups are backed by Republican House members and the Republican Senate. Like Donald Trump, these groups would be no where without their help. The Republican Party now represents those who do not care about our democracy and our Constitution. Even worse, they could care less about the 5 lives lost during the insurrection perpetuated by Trump and themselves.

Today’s Republican Party consists of brain-washed Trump supporters, with no conscience or moral compass towards others. It is now a fringe party bathed in lunacy and corruption, with no regard for our democracy or the Constitution. Only ten House republicans voted for the certification of Joe Biden’s win in the election; all the others voted against it, including Kevin McCarthy, Mo Brooks, Matt Gaetz, Elise Stefanik, Steve Scalise, and Jim Jordan; a group that sold their souls a long time ago.

The Republican Senate and House are the poster child of Satan; not America - and most certainly not God. They are hate-filled liars, complicit in murder, vindictiveness and racism. They have one concern only and that is their own positions. They are continuously stirring up animus, and plotting schemes against their political rivals. 

They do not care about you, and they do not care about this country. Other than the 10 Republican House members who voted to impeach Trump, all the others in essence ripped up our Constitution, and declared in null and void. Each and everyone one desecrated their oath of office. 

Make no mistake – the depraved and decomposed Republican Senate will not vote to impeach Donald Trump. They are content to sell their souls to the lunatics and racists out there, as long as they can acquire their vote. There is no cost to high – even our very own democracy. They all refused to protect our Constitution by not taking a stand against this coup; as a matter of fact, they played a role in it. However, there is one thing the morally depraved Republican Senate and House members may have not considered; and that’s the impact January 6, 2021.

Five people died on that day as a result of the insurrection spurred on by Donald Trump at the U.S. Capitol. One police officer was bludgeoned to death by the insurrectionists, and others died from stresses brought on by the riot. In addition, two Capitol Hill police officers that were there on the day of the riot killed themselves. A few Republicans gave lip service to what happened, that was heartfelt – NOT. Their whole stance and disposition this whole time was to protect Donald Trump and blame the Democrats. 

The fact that Kevin McCarthy is backing up mentally deranged representative, Marjorie Taylor Greene who spoke of shooting Nancy Pelosi straight between the eyes, lays bare the final trajectory of this decomposed, rotten, depraved party. If that does not tell you something, nothing will. In essence, they have chosen to justify evil to support their political views. Greene claimed Jews fired alien (as is visitors from outer space) produced lasers, resulting in the California wildfires. Need I say more. 

The Republican Party is becoming known as the “wackadoodle” party. It has moved itself from the right, to the extreme far right and over the cliff. It has not only established its corruption over the past 4 years – it has now established itself as a nonsensical party ruled by greed and hate. It has lost credibility among its’ educated voters; although many racist, anti-democratic Republicans are willing to overlook that. However, that is not the case for everyone.

Some of corporate America has responded, and I really hope more companies will follow. I hope more Americans will begin to demand a return to normalcy, and a respect for our democracy in politics. It will begin to put pressure on the Republicans in the Senate and House to honor the oath they took to defend their constituents and Constitution. Americans must find out the major companies who are supporting those Republicans in the senate and house who were complicit in the raid on the capital, and demand accountability. 

Don’t expect the Republican House and Senate to do the right thing. They are incapable of that. They are not there to represent the people who elected them in their districts – they are there for themselves. Their positions come before everything else; the American people, their oath of office, and any sense of honor or duty. 

Countless have said most of them are afraid of Donald Trump; but I do not nor have I ever believed this was really true. If they were afraid of Trump, they would have impeached him for interfering with the election and the extortion of Ukraine’s president. They had ample opportunity to get rid of Trump early on, so it begs the question, “Why didn’t they do so?” 

I will tell you why – Trump represents how they really feel, but they do not have the guts to come out say what they really believe. He speaks for them, while they remain cowering in the shadows. Trump is their “savior,” and they are his foot soldiers. 

To the Republican House and Senate – there is no honor in playing the coward. Shame on you for making excuses for a failed coup attempt which resulted in the death of five Americans. You were complicit in what happened. Consequently, two more Capitol police officers committed suicide over the trauma of the riot. History will remember you - for not protecting our democracy, our election, and the Constitution. I know, you don’t care – that’s the problem.
