DeSantis: "Let's just be clear about what happened last night. This is as close to an extinction-level event for Republicans in many parts of the country probably as we have seen in the last 100 years ... if the Republican Party doesn't have Texas an anchor, we're not going to be viable nationally"

Please, he has been more than happy to------- Pedo47 for the first term and the last two years.

He jumped up and down and illegally trafficking migrants up to blue cities in his performance are and even went on to waste his states tax money on the concentration camp built in the swamp.

Ron can ---- off. All the way off.

He and his wife stole $10,000,000 in medicaid money for his political goals.

"A state grand jury found the DeSantis administration "misappropriated" taxpayer money when it diverted $10 million from a Medicaid settlement into the Hope Florida Foundation, arguing the transfer was "part of a sophisticated scheme to fund political activities," according to a copy of the sealed grand jury report obtained by CBS News Miami.

The grand jury report said the money, which was supposed to be used to provide health insurance for poor children, was instead hastily passed through multiple organizations before eventually landing in the bank accounts of two political action committees and the Republican Party of Florida. Those funds were then used in 2024 to defeat Amendment 3, the citizen initiative to legalize marijuana in Florida."

But look at how you got there. Republicans have been following Trump's orders to mass dig their own graves since Jan 20, 2025.

Republicans in this election demonstrate why the "smart mark" is such a good target for the grifter.

It'll be nice if MAGA went the way of the dinosaur.

Probably wishful thinking of my part, but it'd be nice it' we gained a moderate political party in this country.

All these republicans who have been bending over backwards to support every stupid thing Trump has done and said should take a long walk into the ocean.

Meghan McCain had just two words after Tuesday's brutal Election Day results for Republicans.

"Fucking bloodbath," the conservative commentator tweeted on X, after Democrats won in a historic landslide across the country.

McCain added that "It is not an exaggeration to say last night was an extinction level event for republicans."

And YOU helped!

But it's probably good for the Republican Party to cool their jets for a while . . . actually, for a long while. They need to learn all over again that GOP stands for Government of the PEOPLE!

Something we haven't seen out of the GOP since the days of Eisenhower.

BRESKING NEWS

Here's another humiliating kicker for the GOP. Their signature leader's stock (DJT) just fell from $175 per share to $5.00.

That tells me that Trump's oligarch friends in the stock market have bailed.

No mo money for loser Trump.

"(DJT) just fell from $175 per share to $5.00.

Well, since inception.

Today, it opened at $5.95 and closed at $4.46, a one-day drop of over 24.5%.

California flipped forever blue over immigration.

Some are saying the same thing is happening in Texas.

Republicans blew it. All they've accomplished (except for their donor class) is leave the middle class in a heap.

ICE raids won't stop and Trump'll still be president during the 2028 elections.

In 2028, America will again vote like Trump's on the ballot. It won't be pretty for the GOP.
