On the bright side, heās so corrupt that heāll mess up the books so bad that, when that man leaves office, the party will be totally looted.
The perfect way to prepare for their inevitable subpoenaās.
No worries, people. He will be reporting directly to Jared.
OK nowā¦are they trying to hide all these crooks behind a āwallā (so to speak) so they can claim executive privilege when it comes time to drag their asses off to jail? What gives? I truly believe there are a couple of honest Republicans out thereā¦somewhereā¦Buehler???
Basically: If there is more power or more wealth to be gained, Iāll join whatever party and espouse any values you want me to.
There is no Republican Party anymore, it is now just the Trump Party.
I see three possible outcomes:
-
something cataclysmic happens and Trump and Trumpism becomes extremely popular resulting in his 2nd term (or possibly 3rd term, or a autoritarian dynasty where he appoints his son or daughter to take over. Remember he said he wouldnāt accept the outcome of the election? Why should we expect him to accept the outcome when heās in office, a far more frightening prospect that no one is talking about);
-
The GOP is so cowardly they donāt stand up to Trump/or they simply use their full governmental control (seriously, how the fuck did THAT happen?) to push through their agenda that a huge majority of Americans oppose. This results in the GOP riding the Trump train to a massive defeat; or
-
The American people have literally no concept for holding people accountable and keep voting for Republicans like they always do. They stole a Supreme Court nomination and literally none of them paid the price. We lost the Senate anyway.
Well done RNC. Youāve just taken on the principal of Cohen, Sleaze and Sleazier.
Putin/Trumpetsā takeover of the RNC continues deeper and thicker into a heap of shitā¦ they may as well change their name now to better reflect their identityā¦ because thereās no your grampaās GOP anymore.
Or they want him to get access to the nifty Russian money laundering scheme.
Does that immunize Cohen from being called to testify in an investigation of the Trump Campaignās finances and foreign collusion?
āOn March 9, he announced heād finally āmade the official moveā to register as a Republican.ā
He wonāt be missed.
None of the above, jordanolsen26. This is still America and politicians still answer to their constituents when the latter can be bothered to pay attention and get involved. Republicans folded like the proverbial cheap suit on repealing the ACA after they began getting outraged blow back from their voters. Meanwhile Trump hasnāt been able to pass a single major piece of legislation and his sloppy EOs keep getting blocked by the courts. Yes, theyāre thieving traitors but ten weeks into his presidency Trump is already a lame duck with a net approval rating of minus twenty points.
Trump is the standard bearer, but itās still the Republican Party. Trump is where the Greedy Oligarch Party has been headed all along; Trump is what the GOP has wanted all along.
To pretend that the modern Republican Party (since Nixon ran for the House in 1946) stands, or has stood for, anything but what Trump represents is to let them off too easy.
At what point does the Chamber of Commerce wing of the party rebel against this de facto coup by a hostile foreign power?
The russians canāt make donations to the RNC, but thereās going to be a special auction where they buy MAGA hats for a million dollars each.
They are the ones wearing brown paper bags over their heads.
When they start losing money.
Who needs the Kochs or Adelson when you have all those Russian mob billions?
Which is why the Koch brothers do not particularly like the orange-haired guy. They donāt own him.
Money laundering through hats, books, real estate, oh there are endless opportunities. The RNC just needs Cohen to help them find the right vehicles.
