We have to remember that the current occupant of the White House is a ringmaster and what he expects to do is snap his whip and all the elephants hop up on chairs. What they have to understand is he is going to continue to snap the whip whether he’s in office or out of office. And every time they’re going to have to jump up and sit on that stool in order to satisfy him and his supporters. I think they have to understand you’re never going to satisfy President Trump. He is always going to up the ante, he cannot be satisfied. There’s nothing in him. There’s no moral core, and so they are going to be extorted or bribed in order to avoid a primary in 2022 or 2024.
…Maybe it’s time for a new party. One that abides by the rule of law, balanced-budget opportunities, and fiscal responsibility…but also faithful to the people of this country, who vote to elect them.
~ William Cohen, Former GOP Senator and Defense Secretary ~

Wow! I’ve been waiting for more of the establishment in the Republican party to rise up and speak truth regardless the cost.

Hopefully we’ll see more. Tom Cotton and Liz Cheney just expressed their opposition to what the other Trump minions have planned for Wednesday.

Once he has gone, I don’t actually want to remember anything about him. To be honest, I often wish he woud just die. That might sound harsh, but he is a truly evil and selfish man.
Best wishes, Pete.

I was raised not to wish harm upon anyone, but to be honest throughout my life, I’ve slipped a few times. I always felt guilty though and mentally walked back my thoughts. Not with Trump though. He’s a vile, despicable, evil monster and the only reason why I don’t wish he would die is because I fear he’d become a martyr to his cult.

Kim, William Cohen is a voice of reason that should be heeded, given his past experiences. Unfortunately, his is the kind of voice that gets shouted down by people like the outgoing president, who I am sure has and will call him some form of “loser” or “failure” as his rebuttal argument. Keith

And don’t forget “RINO.” I believe the Republican Party is at a tipping point and is likely to fracture into two separate parties.

Kim, true. The true RINOs are the Trump Party which is built on conspiracy theory and unlawfulness. Keith
