The Republican Circus Rolls On
(00:00.334)
I gotta be brutally honest here. I would question the intelligence of anybody actually donating money to the Republican party at this point in time. This Republican circus rolls on, rolls on. So you talk about embarrassing. I mean, you are just, you’re like giving the Democrats everything they want. Hakeem Jeffries got more votes than Jim Jordan did.
yesterday. You control the house, but you don’t really control anything, do you? Anyway, you’re watching the things that are going on. And again, you’re playing into the hands in so many ways of the Democrats. Now the news is getting out that Sean Hannity has been actively calling up.
calling up Republicans, basically lobbying them to vote for Jordan and his producers are doing this as well. Again, you’re just giving them more and more material. So you’ve got now, you’ve got, I don’t know, you’ve got, I guess, resentment, hardball tactics by the 20 that didn’t vote.
for Jordan and maybe they were upset because McCarthy is no longer there. Again, you got some voted for him, seven voted for Steve Scalise. Among Jordan’s opponents were six of the 18 Republicans from districts that President Biden carried in 2020. I guess, Jim Jordan’s got a history of being loud.
voice first in his opinions and they don’t like that. Let’s put this in a perspective here. Do I agree with everything that Jim Jordan has said, done in particular, in my opinion, absolutely insane buddy-buddy relationship with Donald Trump? No, I don’t.

Do I agree with everything with Kevin McCarthy? Absolutely not. Steve Scalise seemed like he was a pretty good bridge to both sides, but obviously not. Let’s just, you know, it’s basically describe. And it was it was put pretty well. It was a great explanation, actually, in the in the Wall Street Journal, making fun of.
Republicans and the mutineers that decided to get rid of McCarthy. They put it this way, it’s like in the old days, it’s like you plant a mutiny on the captain of an old ship, you know, with all the big sails, all the big ships there. Yet the people that after they throw the captain off the ship, they don’t have any clue whatsoever, any sort of plan. They don’t even know how to move the ship. They don’t even know how to put the sails up for crying out loud. That is your Republican Party.
That is your Republican Party. And quite frankly, I don’t see any path at this point in time. If the election was held tomorrow, OK, or if the House election was held in a few weeks, November 23 rather than 24, it would be a wipeout. It would be a wipeout of monumental proportions.
and this is the type of people we’re dealing with, unwilling to compromise at all. And it’s pathetic.
It really is. Vote them all out, people. I mean, if you are, if you’re living in some of these districts where you’ve get these malcontents, I’m sorry, you call up. You call, I call, I’m not gonna, you know, turn in the membership. This is what you need to do. You want change, okay? You vote with your wallet every, I talk about this all the time. You decide who you’re gonna do business with.

Okay, you’re a member of the Republican Party, you call them up, okay? This is what you need, this is what needs to be done. And you say, listen, I’m out now. I’m out now, redo it. Become a Libertarian, I don’t care, but leave and tell them you’re getting no more money. No more of your money, you’re not gonna send it there. That’s the only thing that these people really seem to understand, it’s money and power.
Then maybe, then maybe we’d actually get some competent people in charge of some of these, you know, some of these Republican parties within the states and they’ll actually start putting candidates in there. I know, don’t hold your breath. That have actually done something with their lives instead of being a lifelong politician. That line always comes to mind from the hunt for red October. I think it was, I don’t remember what the character was. He was a member of the.
I think maybe he was the chief of staff of the president at the time. And he goes to Jack Ryan and explains to him, I’m a politician, which means, what do you say? He said, I’m a cheat and a liar. When I’m not kissing babies, I’m stealing their lollipops. True or words that haven’t never, ever been spoken. Let’s be honest, Watchdog on wallstreet.com.
