      That tweet reads like 11-grade drivel, but I like to think Cawthorn really agonized over every word and is super satisfied with that masterpiece.

          Is it just a coincidence, then, that the rare and hated men/women also happen to be objectively the dumbest people in public office?

                  Pretty much every word of this op-ed from the Nevada Independent resonated with me to the depths of my very soul.

                  I am a minority within a minority in the Republican party: I hold evangelical conservative views on a wide range of issues, but I have never been a supporter of former President Trump. Evangelicals have been handed the credit or blame for the rise of Trump to the presidency, but evangelicals are not a monolithic voting block and, even for many who supported Trump, the nod was given reluctantly with much inner turmoil and after much debate.

                  Trump has done substantial damage to the office of the presidency, the nation, the Republican Party, and evangelical Christianity itself. As one author lamented, “When the Christian faith is politicized, churches become repositories not of grace but of grievances, places where tribal identities are reinforced, where fears are nurtured, and where aggression and nastiness are sacralized. The result is not only wounding the nation; it’s having a devastating impact on the Christian faith.” (Peter Wehner, “The Evangelical Church is Breaking Apart: Christians must reclaim Jesus from his church,” The Atlantic, October 24, 2022).

                  I am a minority within a minority in the Republican party: I hold evangelical conservative views on a wide range of issues, but I have never been a supporter of former President Trump. Evangelicals have been handed the credit or blame for the rise of Trump to the presidency, but evangelicals are not a monolithic voting block and, even for many who supported Trump, the nod was given reluctantly with much inner turmoil and after much debate.

                    That is excellent. The author's views are very similar to mine. Though he is able to record them, far more effectively than I ever could. Thanks for sharing.

                      That's an excellent essay. What would Mike Lee and other Trump supporters say to counter it? Probably only a "Well, the libs are even worse!", ignoring the fact that genuine conservatives and others of goodwill yearn for something far better than what the execrable Trump and his dimwitted supporters (e.g., Boebert, MTG, Gaetz, Hawley, etc.) bring to the table.

                        The fact that that quote is from the future is even more impressive.

                          Great essay. And super depressing.

                            That's very good. I really dislike the divisiveness that Trump brought with him, I hope it's not the new normal. The RINO tag is so stupid, when I hear that I prepare myself for some more craziness to come out.

                              Liz Cheney tonight to many of her fellow Republicans: "Someday Trump will be gone but your DISHONOR will remain."

                                Cheney was impressive and I respect her for her integrity.

                                Just for kicks I turned over to Fox to see what they were saying. It was non-stop spin from Hannity attacking Pelosi and Schumer over things in the days leading up to January 6. So disgraceful and shameful.

                                I just don’t see myself ever joining the Republican Party again.
