Boycott the GOP The party is now a threat to the constitutional order. Even conservatives must vote against Republicans at every opportunity
The Atlantic
By Jonathan Raauch and Benjamin Wittes
This, then, is the article we thought we would never write: a frank statement that a certain form of partisanship is now a moral necessity. The Republican Party, as an institution, has become a danger to the rule of law and the integrity of our democracy. The problem is not just Donald Trump; it’s the larger political apparatus that made a conscious decision to enable him...
The rule of law is a threshold value in American politics, and a party that endangers this value disqualifies itself, period...
Future generations of scholars will scrutinize the many weird ways that Trump has twisted the GOP. For present purposes, however, let’s focus on the party’s failure to restrain the president from two unforgivable sins. The first is his attempt to erode the independence of the justice system. This includes Trump’s sinister interactions with his law-enforcement apparatus: his demands for criminal investigations of his political opponents, his pressuring of law-enforcement leaders on investigative matters, his frank efforts to interfere with investigations that implicate his personal interests, and his threats against the individuals who run the Justice Department. It also includes his attacks on federal judges, his pardon of a sheriff convicted of defying a court’s order to enforce constitutional rights, his belief that he gets to decide on Twitter who is guilty of what crimes, and his view that the justice system exists to effectuate his will...
Nah. I don’t want their votes. Fix the damn Republican Party instead so that we’ll have a worthy opposition party, and not a gaggle of clowns.

What's in the OP post is nothing more that what the Dems have been saying all along. Sounds like the Repubs that wrote the article joined the wrong party from the start.
Missionary position ..................statement. That used to be thought of as conservative but everything is so "Stormy" now. Delusional, doofuses put up Hillary.

I voted for Bill in the mid90s.
I might have had the lowest SAT score at Duke(thank God I went before western academia was taken over by leftist idiots) but voting Democrat isnt likely to happen again here. I will not associate myself with the too stupid to know they're stupid liberals again
I don't like either party in their current form. Republican party in particular..... let's start fixing them and make it easier to establish viable third parties.
