To be a "Republican" now demands devotion to TFG and belief in all his toxic lies.

I don't know why people insist on making that claim. We've been hearing it for decades, and it's obviously never been true. It's no closer to true now.

Even if they lose the presidency in November, as I believe they will, they will still have nearly half of Congress, a solid majority of the state legislatures, and a firm hold on SCOTUS and much of the rest of the judiciary.

Sound like a dead party to anyone? I get hyperbole, but this is just silly.
