    So, the heroes of the “masculine right” are:

    1.  Donald Trump

    2.  Kyle Rittenhouse

    3.  Tucker Carlson

    I'm not sure I would use the word "masculine" when describing these 3

    You may think that all Republicans are publicly insane, or want to be publicly insane, but the actual powers-that-be care more about winning and the flow of money than anything else, and 4 straight years of losing after having had it all in 2016 will make them shift course really fast, because that corporate money will start flowing to more Democrats if the Rs keep up the losing.  

    They may not rush to embrace Liz Cheney, but they sure as shit aren't going to let Trump/Gaetz/MTG/Lauren Boebert/etc. be the face of anything, and arguably, they already are ditching the Trump GQP to an extent - look at politicians who won by trying to distance themselves from him earlier this month. Look at those who lose by attaching themselves to him.

    Trump is actively trying to funnel money away from the GOP as well, and that is not missed by the leadership.  Trying to take what they view as their money, plus costing them both chambers and the WH, has not left them a bunch of happy campers.  The revelations about Trump wanting to bail on the GOP and the GOP telling him to pound sand and that they would withhold his access to the various donor lists, etc. spoke volumes about where things stand.

    The GOP didn't win as bigly as they needed to earlier this month, and a few of the standout races showed that Rs can win without Trump all comes at a time that Trump is proving to be a liability.   

    And there is always the threat of Trump still going scorched earth on The GOP.  Our dumbass governor is showing that he's scared shitless over the thought of losing Trump's support.

    I do not think that at all. I know that most Republicans aren't the batshit crazy fucks we see on TV. And I am well aware of the money flow in politics also. But you make good points.

    Ummmm......their constituents love it.  The "freedom caucus" is not an outlier.  It is the heart and soul of the modern GQP.  These elected officials aren't an anomaly -- they are the id of the entire party.  The GQP is PROUD of them.  There are only two types of GQP officials left -- the nutbars who say and do insane shit, and the rest of them who really want to, but haven't mustered the courage to do so.

    I wish you weren't right but you are. I wish that there was more civility in politics as there once was. But those times are long gone. The GQP is the most dangerous thing I have ever seen.

    sad that the only comp here is a comedian, not like, you know, a co-worker.

    there was a time not long ago when athletes or actors would overstep and try to get political.  people would say they had no qualifications or background so their opinion shouldn't be taken seriously.  now that we have certifiably insane know-nothing loudmouth dipshits getting elected, all bets are off. 

    i would say that the bar has been lowered, but there is no bar. 

    These fucktards in the Freedom caucus cannot be taken seriously.....it astonshes me at the level of stupidity that get elected. I would like to know wtf their constituents are thinking when they elect these morons (ALL of the Freedom caucus)
