The democrats defrauded you. HMMM

Was that the democrats who have been running Georgia for since Carter ran and/or the democrats who created the election laws and ran the election in Pennsylvania?

Just where was this fraud, other than Donald trump's dreams?

You guys believed a con man. Mitch is just trying to limit the damage and get rid of Trump and his family for once and for all.

Say hello to your next POTUS candidate Liz Cheney. She's gonna wipe the floor with all the republicans who kissed trump's ass for 4 years.

The only way to unite is for the Republicans to abandon their racist, sexist, anti-lgbtqia mentality and move further to the center. People want to see a bi-partisan, agreeable and civil leadership in our government where the elected officials serve the people.
"Historic election of the first President of color." Shhh, you're not supposed to admit that Harris will be the real president until after Biden has been given his first 100 days to claim an accomplishment or two.

And if Republicans should move more toward the center, shouldn't Democrats do the same? Or do liberals think that "bi-partisan" means "become more like us"?

mitch will not vote to convict, and even if he does that's still only a few senate republican votes as opposed to the 17 or 18 needed.

My job as a Democrat is to keep my party from drifting too far left. I'm far from alone. Look at record. Very little wacky left stuff. A whole lot of compromise and mostly getting nothing done because we wouldn't play dirty like the GOP. They've kicked our butts for twenty years with legislative effectiveness due to their hard ball tactics. Now the GOP has to have their come to Jesus moment and stop saying we're all Venezuelan commies. Come to the table ready to compromise some.

Soooo, can all of us in good conscience just regroup and pull together?
To me, we are divided into good people and bad people. Politics has nothing to do with it.

I’m guessing, no.

Republicans will be better off to get rid of T. Once they make that move, most will be glad they did it. Clean slate.

Mitch took one look at that Lord of The Flies destroying the Capital and that was it.

The democrats do not want unity unless they can have it with their full far left agenda.

Maybe this could end up being a good thing if it creates an actually viable third party though.

Libertarians: are you paying attention?

Now is the time to stop the infighting and lose the crazy parts of your platform like open borders and namby pamby foreign policy.

Then maybe you can actually get off the ground if you can find an electable candidate.
The GOP has been broken for many years. This just seals the deal, no matter what McConnell does.
