Taking my ball & going home. PFFLLLLLT! Are there any adults left in the Republican Party?

[quote]"I support Chad Meredith and supported him when he was considered for a different position. I think he would make a good judge," (Senator Rand) Paul told USA TODAY in a written statement. "Unfortunately, instead of communicating and lining up support for him, Senator McConnell chose to cut a secret deal with the White House that fell apart."

As a result, Paul said he did not return Meredith's "blue slip" to the White House, effectively killing the nomination plans. [/quote]

I think the better question is.....why is there is no Republican Party anymore.

The problem is that almost all older Americans are still voting "Republican".........because they always did. But they do not take into account that this current "Republican Party" is nothing at all...even remotely.....like the Republican Party they voted for 10 years ago even. Since (most notably) 2015 the Republican Party has been morphing............some say as far back as Reagan.........into a domestic terrorist backed organization that has one goal....to guide the United States into becoming an authoritarian fascist form of government. Look at the changes just in the last 12 months. Religion and power based solely on agenda in the SCOTUS is forming the policy for us all. Discrediting of free elections. Convincing the party faithful that anyone who is "anti fascists" is their enemy. Purposedly dividing our country to destroy national patriotism. Encouraging Americans to see dictators as "brilliant..geniuses"....even as they destroy the lives and rights of others. Racial purity. Encouraging hate based on religion and skin color and languages spoken. Voting rights challenged. Schools being told what they can teach and what they can't. Stripping a woman of her rights to even decide if she wants kids. A party that is aligning with more and more armed radicals to help them eventually take over government with force if necessary. Refusal to stop more and more people from being armed with military grade weapons. A coup attempt to take control of our nation.... by one man that is immune from being elected out of office. Look up "fascism". Tell me which point that defines what fascism is that is left out of the current Republican Party agenda.

The question isn't about any adults left in the GOP. The question is why is there no GOP left in the GOP?
