    When you say that do you imply that moderates can't be Republicans?

    I'm not a fan of how trump treats almost everyone

    I feel so sorry for the victims who came to get answers in all of this.

    Marina Lacerda, one of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein’s accusers, slammed Attorney General Pam Bondi’s conduct during a House hearing Wednesday.

    “We expected a little bit more on Pam Bondi’s part,” she told NewsNation’s Joe Khalil after the hearing. “I think she really dehumanized us today.”

    Lacerda said multiple victims cried after that exchange, and they almost felt “embarrassed that we even stood up and she couldn’t turn around and apologize to us.” She also said Bondi has “become a circus act at this point.”

    Not that sorry. After all, you didn't open your pie-hole for FOUR years when the Biden Regime was in power.

    Unless your name is Bernie sanders

    I really hope you're wrong . I think a great many independents should run and win to undo this partisanship.

    But also I think we are miscommunicating . There can be right Republicans , liberal Republicans, moderate Republican... Same goes for Democrats


    Has trump completely captured the party ?

    Drama and emotional outbursts are a poor substitute for genuine strength of conviction and a well articulated argument, but the electorate seems to have forgotten how to tell one from the other.

    Reality TV has rotted this country's brains.

    Can you imagine Bobby Kennedy putting on that childish performance? How about Ed Meese? Janet Reno? Even a moralizing shitbag like John Ashcroft? They would all be so embarased they'd never have shown their face in public again.

    Pam Bondi literally drug the office of Attorney General through the mud, and the yahoos are cheering and slapping each other on the back like they just saw Gravedigger crush a couple of junk yard Chevys at the Monster Truck Rally.

    I'm genuinely embarased for all of you who think that was acceptable, much less impressive.

    When Biden was president the investigation was still active and they were pursuing leads which Trumps Doj closed. You know this but you wanna act like a dumbass

    Exactly one month before the inauguration. The entire admin is compromised and has been for some time. Remember Trump hired the AG who gave him the sweetheart deal in 2008 as his cabinet member

    I don’t think he’s moderate, just isn’t partisan like most people in Washington on either side of the aisle. Trump treats anyone who isn’t a loyal sycophant or one of his kids like garbage, as far as I can tell.

    I’m a little surprised RFK Jr isn’t all over those files (unless I missed it). He seems to fit the profile.

    America is extremely tribalistic! Always going to be a 2 party system unless something big changes.
