you have a lot to learn about how things actually work.
Be cause they are modern Republicans. The "party of Lincoln stuff, often used by the GOP to cast themselves as they were then, is a not a meaningful argument. The GOP and Dixie Democrats came to a crossroads over desegregation 65 years ago. The Democratic party unified under the Northern party ideals and the GOP was split. The Dixiecrat Segregationists became GOPāers joining the Rockefeller, Goldwater and WF Buckley Republicans. Nixon solidified the meld by making the Southern GOPāers appealing to the rest as a sure formula for a majority.
The GOP has been drifting to the right ( although Iām not sure Right is the correct word ) for a long time. They donāt really embrace racism but they arenāt itās enemy like the Democrats are so racists found a home in the GOP. They claim to disavow white supremacists but no way like the Democrats do so againā¦those folks found a home in the GOP. Nut cases and conspiracy idiots find the GOP a good fit as well.
Thatās the modern GOP. Thereās still some legacy there in guys like Mitch McConnell and Jeff Sessions but the modern GOP is typified by guys like Ted Cruz, Kobach and Luny Gohmert. Trumpās no republicanā¦heās a Trump. The new guys are nothing like the old guys. So you canāt bring up the old guys ( pre seg era ) and refer to what they were about as germane today.
Your a bit out of your element in here. Probably a good idea to go back from where you came. To suggest Obama has nothing to show for his administration is just so damn off the mark itā;s hard to believe even an idiot would say it. You do give yourself away with it though.

Trump has done enough meddling himself! Doesnāt the Espionage Act cover giving secret information to agents of a foreign government? What were they doing in their intelligence briefings with Michael Flynn present? Chelsea Manning got 35 years for sharing secret information! Hell, squeeze Flynn and you should get all you need about meddling!
Donald can complain about everything but never ever has a solution.
I believe Trumpās inconsistent statements are good evidence he was involved in the collusion. Yertel McTurtleās sandbagging Merrick Garland proves he was in on it, too. No way would he have pulled that expecting a Clinton presidency.

I think it would be a lot of fun to see Stephen Cobert start running with the idea that Ryan, etc are RINOs - Or perhaps Rachael Maddowā¦
