I name the freedom caucus members (you can search their names). But the freedom caucus has zero, zip, nada Democrats. And, DJT voters will lead to more freedom caucus members. In the Senate, the era of rino-McConnell is ending.
My tea leaves tell me there is a nascent and growing populist/reform movement in only 1 (one) political party today.
You don't have to be on board, DC, but why can't you at least allow for its possibility?
Totally unsurprising that Democrats are not joining with the freedom caucus. My point is Republicans join Democrats on issues where lobbyists / corporations / liberal think tanks tell them to go. Ukraine is a prime example, but silence on Covid polices, education, size of government, the ruinous debt are also obvoiusly indefensible.
Just like in Ben Franklin's day, it's for the People to demand otherwise. We have done a poor job of demanding of the Republican party to be true to its voter base.
I see an opportunity to change this with DJT's base.
Republicans campaign telling us how they will meet our desires, they lie. Once ensconsed they take the money and do what they are told. There is no hope in that arraingement. I would chose DJT over Biden for sure. Because I live in California and there is no chance DJT wins here, I am going for RFK Jr., as are a whole lot of people.
Agreed!!

I not only honor your decision to give up on Republicans, I think you have good reason.
I will continue trying to gain libertarian control of the Republican party.
Thank you, and good luck with your quest.
