Without knowing who you are and what you believe in, you are doomed to be manipulated. That is the situation in which today’s Republican Party finds itself. Today the GOP is a party of no ideas or policies of their own except the Big Lie that the election was stolen. Right now, the GOP has the opportunity to wipe the slate clean, recalibrate the party, and find its way back to true conservatism. It helps the country to have strong parties with opposing ideas — parties that stand for something.» Subscribe to MSNBC:

Velshi: The GOP’s Identity Crisis | MSNBC
If you don’t stand for something; you’ll fall for anything.
John 8:44
Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
You get that out of a bubble gum wrapper?
@Kor Kalba didn’t listen to the video, did ya?
@Kor Kalba It’s a very well-known quote by Alexander Hamilton.

The GOP doesn’t have an identity crisis….. They have a morality crisis!
@KenHoffman HEY! I resemble that remark!
There is a significant difference between a morality crisis and an amorality crisis.
@BUBBA JIM You just described Donald Trump and the Republican party to a tee! Yes both parties need to do a better job of talking the talk and walking the walk, but a real man of God would never view Trump as a true man of God! The Republicans are nothing more than Pharisees! Matthew:23 speaks of this!
Man say that!!;;;
Spot on!!!!!!
They have so much in common with the jenners!
@Yourname Here Jenners. Plural. Focus.
@Yourname Here Having said that… The Jenner you are talking about is a Republican too.
@Nicole Marsh Ah, taking into account the split personalities.
Good path. Well done.
Jenners it is.
@Nicole Marsh RINO that is.
Warren Buffet ran this same stunt with the Davis recall. He installed yet another puppet. The Governator. Warrens little Nazi puppet.
@Yourname Here Most of them are RINOs these days though aren’t they? The party of Lincoln is barely recognisable at this stage.
I have voted for Republicans and Democrats in my life, but this latest version of the Republican Party will definitely have me avoiding the “R” lever in the voting booth for a long while, from President down to dog catcher!
@TheBase1aransas I can tell. Prices are skyrocketing on every thing. MSNBC isn’t defending xD they are spreading propaganda. But it’s fine, ill prepare for what is to come, cause it’s the same thing that always comes when a democrat is leader. Inflation, crash of the market.

LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL
@TheBase1aransas wait so the person who gets puked on by the entire GOP and defended by all Democrats is a chinees spy? Hmmmm who would have thought…
@Devo YEP~ Sorry to be cryptic and leave out so much, but “this channel” refused to accept almost everything that pertained. The whole [DS] is unraveling at every edge.
@WARRIOR OF GOD
I don’t take religious folk seriously.
Not after evangelicals claimed that Don the Con was chosen by their magic sky fairy.
The GOP is feverishly digging it’s on grave. And when your enemy is digging his own grave, you don’t jump in and fight him for the shovel. Just “stand back and stand by.” 😆
HAHAH Nice!
Always let you enemies the their own noose, that way your hands don’t get dirty.
The big lie. call for what it is. The 2nd lost cause.
GOP: Grandstanding Opportunists and Panderers
GOP: Government of Putin
GOP: Group of Phonies
GQP: Republikkkans
Covid Commander you are the Loser big time bro
@Chad Pettis HAHAH Is that what your rebuttal spreadsheet tells you to say when an American calls you out with the truth??? LMAO You’re funny! Weak response. You’re about to lose your job! LOL
@Chad Pettis SOUND FAMILIAR, TROLL?? Internet trolls invaded news media sites and massively posted pro-Trump comments in broken English.Trolls take shifts writing mainly in blogs on LiveJournal and Vkontakte, about subjects along the propaganda lines assigned. Included among the employees are artists who draw political cartoons. They work for 12 hours every other two days. A blogger’s quota is ten posts per shift, each post at least 750 characters. A commenter’s norm is 126 comments and two posts per account. Each blogger is in charge of three accounts.
An employee interviewed by The Washington Post described the work:
“I immediately felt like a character in the book 1984 by George Orwell — a place where you have to write that white is black and black is white. Your first feeling, when you ended up there, was that you were in some kind of factory that turned lying, telling untruths, into an industrial assembly line.”
@Chad Pettis “boo hoo hoo. we Dump Supporters tried to overthrow the government and failed. waah waah waah😭” is what I got from your statement. Do you even know the definition of communism and NOT the one your MAGAloser cult leader told you?
The Flame Fist God you all are destroying USA and are human trafficking re re
The GOP wants in power permanently. It’s not hard to figure out.
It’s called dictatorship, trump wants to be putin
GOP=DOA
Rip GOPutin
Liz Cheney getting destroyed by the GQP is the fatal mistake. Replacing her with the Female version of “Moscow Mitch” aka Elise Stefanik is wrong. Stefanik cares only about herself than she does in her district unlike Cheney who puts America first.
Everyone: “I’m starting to think republicans don’t actually care about serving the people.”
GQP: “Go on…”
Everyone: “All they care about is power, money, and self-interest.”
GQP: “Bingo!”
Everyone: “😳 Well, your honesty is refreshing, I guess.”
GQP: “Thanks!”
trust me I have watched Fox news . Used to watch it regularly about 30 year ago? When the owner left it to his son to manage it went downhill. But hey, you know what, that’s only my opinion. Know you have yours.
@Devo I’ll have to check out CSpan. Heard of it but never really watched it.
Adam Schiff was supposed to stop Trump completely! With his more than “Circumstantial Evidence”of Treason by Colluding with the Russians! Also just like Brennan, Clapper, Rice and far to many other’s to list! TOLD US ALL! But when Adam had them behind closed doors! UNDER OATH! They all stated they had nothing! Not even hear say! I think they where threatened to say that! Maybe by Antifa or BLM! Cause those 3 are also True Patriots Like Mr. Schiff! So I’m gonna still wait! Never lose Faith! Just like with this Ridiculous Arizona Audit! The Truth always shines through! AND WILL BE PROVEN! That Biden won in the Cleanest Election Ever! And is The Most Popular President Ever! I can’t wait for Orange man to eat his words!
ALL HAIL OUR SAVIOR!
Biden
wrong, an honest GQP is not real

The tragedy is the desperation by the GOP to keep their jobs far outweighs the oath they took to actually do their jobs.
I’m my humble opinion that is the key reason I believe the Republican Party will cease to exist in any recognisable form – well before the next election.
That is the only way they can keep from doing anything, is follow Trump lead.. The do nothing president. The do nothing Moscow Mitch…Instead of America First, it should be THE DO NOTHING PARTY…
@may wilson Actually May, I think Velshi hit it on the nose. The GQP are now the party that will STAND FOR NOTHING SO THEY FALL FOR ANYTHING!!!
I pray the next election goes blue. I find myself holding my breath.
The amount of time we spend believing we can’t is more than enough time to learn how we can.

Trading without a professional like Mr Peter Terry Smiths is like gambling with your money.

Sergeant Robert Justin Alford green at Nellis Air Force Base told me that I would not be allowed to see my two daughters and my seven grandchildren unless I did exactly as he said when he said
A very controling person you have there pick of the litter
@Alfred Vallejos jr.
Playing with peoples children and grandchildren will catch up with you eventually.
If you don’t stand for something you’ll fall for anything. At least that’s what I’ve been told.
it is pretty much the truth.
The Republican Cult is dissolving before our eyes.
It feels good.
Liz Cheney getting destroyed by the GQP is the fatal mistake. Replacing her with the Female version of “Moscow Mitch” aka Elise Stefanik is wrong. Stefanik cares only about herself than she does in her district.
@Eric Forsbergs Agreed. Stefanik is getting that guy’s endorsement is only because she kissed his ring being the ex-most important person in United States. I don’t like much about Cheney but she stands with the truth, unlike ex-president T., or Stefanik, Cruz, Graham, McCarthy, etc. etc.
They ain’t done yet!
I won’t believe it until they are absolutely GONE!
“Train wreck”… Amen, Ali!!! 👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍
Ali as usual nails it!
In politics, it’s not so much who you’re for than who you are afraid of. And those in and out of politics who make big bucks (it’s always about the money) know how to play on this sentiment.
They don’t wanna do anything, pass anything, pay for anything. They love to blame everybody and take credit for things they didn’t do. Sounds like the new welfare party.
The quote: “If you don’t stand for something, you’ll fall for anything” has been attributed to Malcolm X as written in his autobiography. I’m not sure where he got the quote from, as the Bible says “There’s nothing new under the sun.”
