Post by: Seamajor1 on March 22, 2024, 12:03:06 PM
Why is she going after Speaker Johnson? Clearly the Republican Party is self destructing. What a shit show.

What's going on here? She's getting lots of flack already. Many of her party members disagree. Looking forward to see where this ends up

I don't give two fucks about internal dissent within the Republican party. But, the Democrats should be allowing internal dissent too. Instead Democrats like Kennedy are Cornel West are forced out for not toeing the line.

If he were reasonably intelligent he would be applauding dissent as it demonstrates a focus by an elected rep on her constituents instead of her party.

You will notice that democrats ride with the herd no matter what direction the herd is going

they've conditioned their constituents to think this way too apparently

You're a dedicated democrat so anyone with an IQ of 100 or above will certainly have trouble believing you

In both Canada and the US, voters have said mass immigration and illegal immigration are important issues. Marjorie Taylor Greene supported Remain In Mexico which the current administration overturned. It worked at keeping illegal entries low and Biden reversing it worked to undermine the stability of America.

It's the same here. Trudeau lost control of who enters the country and the country is falling apart because of his neglect.

Marjorie Taylor Greene can fight all she wants with people in her party and she probably should. As long as she keeps holding Biden's feet to the fire over the Southern invasion, she is doing what people elected her to do.

Dissent is democracy in action. The American Democrats and the Canadian Liberals used to embrace dissent.

Sinema is gone too and Manchin has left in all but name.

Party loyalty is stupid. I used to always vote for the socialist NDP. But, when they went from being the party of blue collar workers to the party of urban academics, their new policies became anti working class. Needless to say, they will not get my vote in 2025.

There are issues like energy security that I agree with Taylor Greene. There is even one or two issues I agree with AOC. But, I will not keep silent on the issues that I disagree with either them and nor should their fellow members of congress from their respective parties.

No. So we should see it one way, your way. This is why the other side is winning.

I think she's great. She isnt scared to call out the speaker and keep him on point under threat of him getting tossed like McCarthy.
