Rep. Elise Stefanik has been mostly neutral about Trump in the past, but apparently, she has seen the light. In her quest to take over the congressional position now held by Rep. Liz Cheney, she has hitched herself to Trump's wagon as he drives it down into the depths. Shame on her for this opportunism and her abandonment of her duty to the people, in order to serve her own ambition. May she receive just what she deserves.

The majority of the Republican base does not like Romney, Cheney, McConnell, McCarthy, and every other RINO that helped, along with John Roberts, Biden get elected by colluding with the Democrats to rig the election.

I think Elise Stefanik is a much better choice than a Republican Classic type who is willing to ignore the base in order to enrich themselves with corporate money from Google or Amazon.

Just going after the fringy loon base of the GOP.

Dems do it also with their own players and issues.

Yet Cheney's voting record is more in line with Trump than Stefanik's. I believe I heard on the news yesterday that Stefanik didn't even vot for Trump's signature legislation, the tax cuts.

It is becoming more and more clear what the loud Trump wing considers important, and it isn't policy. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/che...p-conservative

Does RINO these days equate to "not having your head stuck up Trump's ass"?

I'm beginning to wonder.

I don't see how you characterize someone as Trump neutral when they voted against certifying the election, this is how far right the republican party has moved.

Sounds like Stefanik is your perfect candidate, that is where the right wing lives.

It never was. The only legislation that Trump passed were general Republican safe bills that ANY Republican could pass. Trump did not do anything that was significant considering all the rooting people are doing for his return in 2024.

Biden has been in office for 4 months and has already reversed all of the executive orders Trump supporters were cheering. Obama's administration was a warning that EO does not work as legislation because they get reversed immediately by the next guy. But Republicans did the same thing and now it was all of nothing.

After 4 years of raising hell and fury, we got a tax cut, a mile of new border wall, and a more fractured country. The rest has already been overturned.

Anyone that doesn't think the election was stolen is obviously a Rino and must be removed from office, we can't tolerate people dealing in facts.

Normal rational people really don't have a home in the fanatical base of either party.

We live in an incredibly corrupt and morally bankrupt society. I could literally give you thousands of examples of people in authority who cheat, lie, and steal. Some even get caught, too.

But despite all that, you just know the election was legit?
