Subject: Re: Cheney: Republicans Betraying America
I was thinking Dick Cheney. I hated Dick Cheney. I still think he was pulling George's strings. But the Republican position on Ukraine would not sit well with him. And this would be one of the few times I agreed with him.
Liz is a bit more sensible (to me). So I'm less surprised that I agree with her. Republicans are strengthening Putin's position, and therefore strengthening one of our mortal enemies. The GOP has been dead for years as there has been nothing "grand" about it since the TEA Party arose. I'm not sure if MAGA is a morphing of the TEA Party, or a replacement of it. Either way, it's been extremely corrosive to that side of the political spectrum.
So...for there to be any hope for the future, Biden needs to win (NOT a slam dunk) and the Dems need 60 in the Senate (highly unlikely) and a slight majority in the House (possible). Otherwise our mortal enemies will just get stronger, our alliances will get weaker, and that leads to bad things.
