Prebius is another buffoon in a long list of GOP Chairs.

He does say one thing (in Republican code) that we should all realize: The Republicans are going to do anything and everything to win the next election - whether it is legal or NOT! Nixon lives!

But Priebus said he feels “history is on our side.”


http://www.census.gov/content/dam/Census/library/publications/2015/demo/p25-1143.pdf?

"..... by 2044, more than half
of all Americans are projected to belong to a minority
group (any group other than non-Hispanic White alone);
and by 2060, nearly one in five of the nation’s total
population is projected to be foreign born."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Um, no, history is not on your side. The nation is increasingly and inexorably becoming one populated by people that don't like or trust you. Which works out fine because their enmity is understandable, as they're people you don't like or trust either.

Wow, when Rinse Pubis becomes the only sane speaker for the GOP, you know they are toast!

Sadly, we have to work really hard to replace all those lunatic GOP governors as well who have wreaked massive havoc upon their constituents, regardless of the party affiliation of the voters.

Need I mention Jindahl, LePage, Walker, Brownback? It’s truly amazing just how badly these idiots have governed to the dismay of even former ardent supporters.

On edit: I missed the very last sentence, history is on our side. I therefore retract my opener about him being the only sane speaker. Mea Culpa!

"if you don’t hold the White House, it’s very difficult to govern in this country "

GOP-codespeak for ‘squeeze voting rights at the state level.’

The funniest part is, the Dems have moved right over the years and taken the center position so what can the R party do? Going even further right is surely a losing proposition and moving left is an impossibility. Reince is right, they are pretty much screwed.

RNC Chair: GOP ‘Cooked As A Party’ If We Don’t Win In 2016

We have f^cked up badly.
Please (please!), turn out to vote next November.
Or And things will be even worse.
Regards,
The Party who f^cks things up.

Not the most shining example of reason-- but RWNJ’s got nuthin’ else.
A year-plus out from Election Day-- and they are pleading with the low-info types-- to stay low-info.

He was a TERRIBLE candidate. If they can nominate Rubio, it may be tougher to beat him. May be.

It’s not your party Reince, it’s talk radio and Fox news’ party. It’s a say what gets you the best ratings party. They don’t care about governing anymore, they care about sound bites and ratings.

Priebus is being modest. After the loss it will be a pure Aryan party. All others, RINOs, impure race, non Freedom lovers etc will be filtered out. It will be a pure AmeriKan party, just like it was meant to be.

You’re cooked as a party, Jasper, because you’ve devolved into a nihilistic movement that’s nothing but apologists for oligarchs, theocrats, racists, and jingoes. Your rhetoric is ridiculous because you have to hide your real goals. You’re traveling medicine show hucksters. You fail constantly. And nobody but a fool or a charlatan would be willing to serve in your movement as a so-called leader. The traditional next step is 40 years in the desert. So there’s the desert—start walking.

The GOP may fail constantly. However, I imagine Democrats covet the majority status Republicans currently possess in both chambers of Congress.

“History is on our side, which is why we want to drag this country backwards, especially in regards to voting rights, science, education, family planning, Confederate flags…”
