Let’s hope the republicon infighting plays out the way you mentioned, Michelangelo. In my opinion, the fact that approximately 30 percent of Americans could still support Drumpf and would vote for a person who is so openly self serving, criminal and a potential jail bird, is frightening. It has been, and will be, a roller coaster ride.

Good timing of your show Mike, sounds like the action starts about the same time. I look forward to hear what you’ve got to bark into the mic this arraignment day. I say “R’s in disarray, R’s in disarray !!” The security there should be same level as if expecting like BLM protestors or “Antifa” and have a number of busses all lined up and plenty of handcuffs, ready and waiting. Lock them up !!

The GQP has already descended into chaos. The question now is can this “so-called” political party right itself, and show some character? Hmmmm……

Mike, great article. Thank you. But I still can’t seem to wrap my head around is… Although this is “unprecedented” territory that we’re in. It’s just beyond me that with all of these criminal actions / indictments with more to come, he is still allowed to run for office.

That’s still blows my mind.

On a sidebar to supplement my income in Washington DC, I literally have passengers from all over the world, and when they get into conversation, basically the conversation is the same… embarrassed for us…. what’s going on in America and they’re also happy that he’s being held accountable which means a lot to other countries

There are moments it seems trump, in his narcissistic Machaviellian man-child dysfunction, relishes only one goal: to see if he could serve as the first indicted POTUS running the country from jail. He’s living in his own abnormal world bolstered by a fanatic cult with impaired thinking.

Too late; we're already there at the expense of our great nation ,all for the dollar

Has anybody noticed that the only way Republicans win POTUS is through the EE?

Not everytime, ,but the majority?

Absolutely!

Yes, the demise is beginning. President Biden was probably able to get McCarthy to deal on the debt ceiling readily is that their donor base is pulling away because they are looking like the crazy losers they are(everything they are doing is a losing position). But Desantis taking on the corporations and using the apparatus of the state for his own fascist purpose has got to have these donors worried, and Trump sucking all the money from the populace base and not going to Republicans. Trump will be indicted for Jan 6 and probably Georgia. He is finished, and the bigger question is how many jr fish are going to get caught up in the net. Trump being elected(news media b.s.) is hysterically funny.

On your show today, caller “Steven” was probably getting the same reaction from listeners that I had about some of the recent republicon criticism of Donald Drumpf. Steven made such good points regarding recent Drumpf “critics” Christie and Haley, and pointed out that John Kasich is the only republicon who has opposed Drumpf since 2016, even going so far as to support Joe Biden in 2020. Voters with Steven’s fervor are what we need to stop the madness that has overtaken about 30 percent of our country, the MAGA cult.

They enabled him, used him to get control of the Supreme Court and now they need him to go away before the next election. They're worried he can't beat Biden. Adding to their worry is Biden's age and possibly of retirement after his reelection allowing Kamala Harris to become President.

According to Scripture the republicons are sodomites. Maybe we're seeing now that God is in the process of destroying that party. Here is what the Scriptures why Sodom was destroyed. Thank you and keep up the good work. I pray for your safety and health. Have a wonderful and joyous day. JFK

J F you are sooooo on target!! Real Christians KNOW THIS! My brother calls the “republican christians” modern day Pharisees. I always say, I’m going to run out of popcorn on judgement day. These “evangelicals” are something else. I think they think Jesus is going to go to Maralago when he comes back.🤣🤣🤣🤣
