The congresswoman quipped that in attempting to avert a shutdown Republicans were “run[ning] around the House like a Roomba, until they found a door that House Democrats opened”

    There is a less than zero chance of this ever happening

    Because just look at the “good republicans” like romney and mccain (rest in piss) and so forth. They act like they care about decorum and how they are the party of small business and so forth. But when it comes time to vote on all the hateful shit? They vote right alongside their qanon brethren.

    The only difference between the gop and the qop is that the former SOMETIMES say the quiet part quiet.

      Matt Gaetz sees a difference between the two. It doesn’t necessarily matter if you or I see their policies as meaningfully different. They are willing to go to war with each other over ultimately minor things.

      Another case in point is when Greene called Boebert a “little removed. The reason? Boebert had introduced an impeachment proposal against Biden, and Greene accused her of copying exactly what she was going to do. They are not united in purpose; they want the “prestige” of being the one to press that button.

      Take advantage of this. It’s the biggest blind spot in extreme right ideology. They absolutely will crack apart if they’re pushed enough on it. They’re already doing it on their own.
