Today, the Party of Lincoln â the Party of Reagan â is again proving her right.
Instead of concentrating on retaking the House next year and regaining control of the Senate, the GOP is looking backwards and engaging in intra-party squabbles.
Instead of uniting to attack â and stop â President Bidenâs plans to turn the U.S. into the United Socialist States of America, the GOP is still fighting over the results of the 2020 election.
The partyâs leaders arenât able to take advantage of Bidenâs early blunders because of one man â Donald Trump.
By refusing to shut up about how he was cheated in 2020, and teasing everyone about whether heâll run in 2024, Trump is not just splintering and distracting the Republican Party.
The GOP Has To Get Smart, With Or Without Trump
by Michael Reagan, May 6, 2021
Decades ago my sister Maureen often used to call the Republican Party The Stupid Party.
Today, the Party of Lincoln - the Party of Reagan - is again proving her right.
Instead of concentrating on retaking the House next year and regaining control of the Senate, the GOP is looking backwards and engaging in intra-party squabbles.
Instead of uniting to attack - and stop - President Biden s plans to turn the U.S. into the United Socialist States of America, the GOP is still fighting over the results of the 2020 election.
Caitlyn Jenner s hourlong interview Wednesday with Fox News host Sean Hannity was predictable: A California gubernatorial candidate whose main credential for running is a famous name talking to a conservative host who favors ousting a Democratic governor while enjoying an opportunity to bash liberal California.
The host opened Hannity by calling the nation s most populous state the United Socialist States of California.
Jenner, a Republican trans woman known for winning the Olympic decathlon championship and being a fixture in the Kardashian reality TV empire, is an early candidate in an expected California gubernatorial recall election, a free-for-all in which voters will decide whether to oust Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom and, if they do, pick a new state leader from a field open pretty much to all comers.
New German Christian Democratic candidate for chancellor promotes policies of herd immunity, austerity and war
The Christian Democratic candidate for Chancellor in September’s general election is incumbent North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW) state premier Armin Laschet. He succeeds Angela Merkel (Christian Democratic Union, CDU), who has been the lead candidate for the CDU and its Bavarian sister party the Christian Social Union (CSU) in the last four federal elections and has governed the country as chancellor since 2005.
The decision was preceded by a power struggle lasting several days between Laschet and Markus Söder, the right-wing conservative Bavarian state premier and CSU leader. Söder, who justified his claim to the candidacy by pointing to higher popularity ratings among voters and within the Union (CDU/CSU), ultimately bowed to the decision of the CDU executive.
