“Our nation’s institutions have been shaken. Our alliances have been strained. Our credibility has been damaged. And our nation’s values have been cast aside,” Hertling said. He suggested the U.S. should look to the reconstruction of Germany after the defeat of Nazism if it hoped to to restore the damage caused by Trump and his allies.

Trump is the republican party now whether you like it or not. Never Trump Republican is an oxymoron. If you're a never Trump "republican" you really need to just switch parties at this point, otherwise you're just a drop of dirty water in an ocean of piss.

No I'm actually done listening to Republicans and their bullshit.

Oh, you mean all the Republicans that quit, or refused to run for re-election in the face of Trump's take-over of their party?

No he means the Nuremburg trials where they were put to death.

NATIONAL HARBOR, Md. (AP) — Over and over, the Republicans and former Republicans who gathered just outside Washington this weekend warned that President Donald Trump and his allies in Congress are tearing at the very fabric of American democracy.

Really don't fucking want to hear it after Republicans have been working their asses off to get us to this point for the past 30+ years. Republicans can fuck ALL the way off. The Overton window in the US was already stupid 30 years ago and it's just gotten worse. "Centrists" are either politically ignorant of what they actually support, or are essentially fascists who want to fuck liberal women.

Sure, they want to disassociate themselves from the fascists? I'm not even sure I believe them, but why now and not 15-20-25+ years ago? No, you fuckheads wanted to play the games and ride the coattails of fascism to power. So you can fuck off.

.........I might be a bit passionate about this topic. lol

If you would still consider yourself Republican at this point. I assume you want to be part of the problem more than the solution

Can't expect a lifelong republican to turn democrat all of a sudden, tho. There's still a lot of nuance on both sides, but there's only two sides to choose from.

Man am I glad at times l like these to have like 17 parties to choose from in my country.
