4 Jan What Has Become Of The Republican Party?

What Has Become Of The Republican Party?

Yesterday was a sad display of where the Republican party has come under Trump. While the Democrats were celebrating taking control of the House with a very diverse set of people, the Republicans sat there and watched.  Who was watching?  An overwhelming number of old white guys.  They could have been gracious and applauded the Democrats, but they chose to just sit there.  

And even worse was the spectacle playing out at the White House.  While the Democrats were getting great tv coverage, Trump decides to have a press conference.  This is so small of him.  He knew he would get tv coverage.  He did not disappoint.  He said some of the most ignorant things a President has ever said.  Not just recent presidents, but in the history of all of them. He once again proved just how dumb he really is.  It was said to see clips of it. 

The Republican party has no conscious now.  They put their trust in Trump and have rode him to the bottom.  Unless there is some drastic change in the next 2 years, they are going to be a very minority party after the 2020 elections.  

I know there are many people who support the Republican party and what it to return to its roots. That may eventually happen but it will take a large purge of the Trump ass kissers and the “Freedom Caucus .”  That will take time, maybe many years.  I don’t particularly care.  I am an independent.  I can’t support anyone who continued to support Trump after the things he has done. I want at least two strong parties because we need that for a healthy democracy.  Trump republicans are not it.
