Exactly! The guy that goes on Saturday night live to play with the liberals calls Conservatives, "Performance Artist's"

I find that refreshing and honest.
I find it hypocritical and pandering... pandering to who? Why?

The Democrats are doing everything the Republicans need, if we'll just shut our mouths and let them feast on each other. There's no reason for us to give them a lifeline.
I agree.

Pandering? No.

Appealing to the large number of moderate Republicans that leftists don’t want to admit exists? Yes.

Not following, how is not voting for a Federal Vaccination Database throwing the dems a lifeline and what does it have to do with shutting their mouths ??

I'm basically forced into the Dem camp by the rightward shift of Rs but have to admit this statement is 100% accurate. I think half of Biden's approval drop is that people though they would get dull and now they are stuck listening to AOC argue with Manchin, Carville, and anyone who does not bow to socialism. Then you have DiBlasio and a couple of other mayors going way off track. Add in whatever grievance of the day filters out of the overall Squad & its really no quieter than we had the orange man.

One thing to consider about Crenshaw is he is youngish and from a suburban district. So he has different constituents than a Boebert or MTG. And he likely wants to be in a position to run statewide in the next 10-15 years so he doesn't want to stake out positions/an image that is not going to age well in a quickly evolving state.

Exactly by trashing the Conservative base that they all pander to and need to get elected... Unnecessary and counterproductive unless of course you are one of those big government establishment types.

Nonsensical

Prbably pretty accurate.

You are forced to vote Dem because of some percieved right ward shift of the GOP , but then are shocked to find the dems are controlled by extreme leftists....
Do tell ... as you should know there are no Conservatives leading or running the Republicans. All moderate establishment types . Mitch McConnel, Kevin McCarthy.
The Democrats ? Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Shumer, Maxine Waters, Adam Schiff, Gerald Nadler...
Please... they are actively promoting and pushing Socialism. and some of the most extreme leftist measures in our lifetime ... but please tell me about that right ward shift of the GOP.
