This is not opinion or leftist. It’s news about fighting in the party, which is factual, recent, and on-topic.

Removal of this post is admitting that this sub is only about being a safe space for conservatives to circle-jerk while ignoring reality.

I encourage a discussion about the recent conflicts inside the party, how that might impact the party moving forward, and what can be done to prevent this divide.

You guys realize that a lot of conservatives don't like politicians, right? Also, conservatives are not a monolith.

Think of how a lot of leftists don't like the DNC.

Does this mean yall will finally stop complaining about Hunter Biden’s cock? Half joking here.

Again, not a monolith. Some really care. Some don't.

Personally, I find the hunter thing worth exploring, if hes passing money to Biden. Same as if any other person was giving 40,000 grand to Biden.

Do you find the Trumps worth exploring and Jared's $2BILLION investment from the Saudi's or Ivanka's $600MILLION paycheck from her time in the White House? Or is it different when Republicans do it?

This article seems to draw the wrong point from the interview. The historian being interviewed says the quickness to resort to violence by Republican politicians is nearly identical to that of Southern politicians right before the US Civil War. She notes that these Southern politicians were emboldened by the fact that they could do anything and not be politically reprimanded for it. Their constituents actually liked how violent they were, so it just kept getting worse. She notes that modern day Republicans enjoy the same luxury. The historian stops short of saying America is headed towards another civil war because their politicians would rather use threat and violence over debate and compromise, and the American voters like it.
