I fail to see how that is a bad thing.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

MODERATORS
They might have to eschew morals and start gaslighting the populace to regain influence.
Wait...
Rand Paul is educated but not smart. But he's right here, and now there is nothing he or anyone can do about it. I do hope this is the beginning of the comeuppance the GOP so desperately, desperately needs.
We can only hope.
That's how long it will take to rebuild US foreign policy, 60 years. I hope Rand is correct, fuck the GOP.
I question if the intent isn't to make magats and basic Republicans fear a downfall in hopes they double down on support.
Regardless, NOBODY will trust another country for its own defense.
"Fuck the people this will harm, what about my political party!?
These MAGA will just move to their Republican overlords after Trump has died. The real hope would be a split GOP. MAGA/GOP and Dems.
There's no splitting the fascists, they are in it to the bitter end. Getting everyone else to defeat their 20%-30% at best of the population is the only move.
Good. Fucking good. Also fuck with Social Security while you are at it and secure your fucking grave permanently.
I hope we get rid of all these bastards once and for all. Their entire party and platform is and always has been a giant fucking sham that preys on the gullible.
From your mouth to Satan’s ears!
You put it all on orange and spun the wheel
Lets hope!
Hopefully! The world would be a far better place. Globally and domestically.
Conservative policies just have their own heads up their asses sucking Trump's rich spoiled cock
Trump has a concept of a cock
Nah.
The civil war resulted in the horribly and completely evil south being knocked out of national political dominance for decades.
That led to the rise of the US as a global super power, including the transcontinental railroad and the progressive movement of Teddy Roosevelt.
Their return to political prominence is accompanied by the fall of America as the greatest hyperpower in human history.
