“If you want the GOP to be a serious conservative political party and not a MAGA cult, send Republicans into the wilderness. Vote for Biden. Take away Republicans’ control of the House. Give Democrats a bigger majority in the Senate.

“…voters are becoming tired and cynical. Tired of the constant political warfare that dominates our culture and cynical that any of it will ever change. Those who favor democracy thrive on the promise of hope and change. Cynicism and despair are the weapons of tyrants and despots.”

“There is no excuse to treat the two parties as equivalent or to not explain that Trump is a uniquely dangerous figure. Interviewers are obligated to grill Republicans about supporting an antagonist of basic democratic values.”

“It’s past time to reevaluate political coverage. Polling fixation is unenlightening if not misleading. (Maybe get out of the crystal-ball business entirely?) Pundits insist the GOP debates without Trump are really important, but there’s no evidence they have affected the race.”

GA GOP wants to punish DA Willis for prosecuting Trump.
WI GOP wants to impeach Judge Janet for hearing a case on fair districts.
Trump wants to execute General Milley for criticizing him.

“[I]f they cannot demonstrate that they stand apart from the worst of the worst MAGA chaos-creators by setting up a duly empowered speaker and then advancing sensible legislation, then we should retire the myth that “moderates” exist anywhere in the Republican Party.“

Top reasons why Republicans are shutting down the government:
1) To stop Donald Trump from being prosecuted
2) To help Vladimir Putin by stopping the US from helping Ukraine
3) Because they're entirely dysfunctional and they can't agree on anything, even when in the majority.

It’s never ideal when Democracy Docket has one significant issue in your state, much less two. We have work to do in Wisconsin.
Wisconsin is a testing ground. Successes here (both pro and anti democracy) can/have been be attempted in other states.
