Sometimes I feel like being a Republican is akin to never growing past the silly politics of highschool.

Which may also explain their age preferences.

And the fact that they all have an overwhelming amount of absurd passion for things that make loud noises.

Which is proof of how pulling the mask off has helped American awareness. Historically, people tend to migrate from liberal to conservative with age. Now thanks to the internet, social media, and Trump’s encouragement, we can all see the batshit crazy plain as day.

Aka they're ineffective but won't stop bitching... so just par for the course for the GOP.

They should vote Marjorie Taylor Greene in as speaker.

Can they vote to oust her or is that reserved only for the speaker?

Yeah they voted Santos out, but right now their majority is so slim they won't do it.

That could be fun to watch, I bet it would be very confusing for her, and she probably wouldn't support herself for very long.
