More “fed up” Republicans may leave before the election in hopes of cashing in on the private sector, reporter says
More House Republicans may quit before the end of their terms, which could potentially allow Democrats to regain control of the chamber before the elections.
The early departures of Reps. Ken Buck, R-Colo., and Mike Gallagher, R-Wis., dropped the Republican majority’s margin to just one vote. Gallagher’s planned departure on April 19 is immediately after a date that would trigger a special election to fill his seat, meaning it is expected to stay empty until in the election.
But “other Republicans are angling to get out as soon as they can,” Fox News’ Chad Pergram reported. “A big payday in the private sector could lure some members to cash in their voting card early.”
Pergram reported that some House Republicans are “fed up” and “just exasperated.”

Nah, it just doesn’t pay well enough apparently…
Just ask Clarence “Harlan Crow’s sugar baby” Thomas.
They genuflect at the altar of business, and then say, “wait aren’t we team Republican?” You fuckin idiot. What even is a Republican anymore? Grifters, cash grabbers, rapists, and people who swear by “individualism.” A “team” of greedy individualists. “Where’s the loyalty to individualism?!” they scream.
The maddening thing is how much their voters go for the worst the party has to offer. They actually seem to prefer worse candidates
Well, they’ve conditioned their voters to survive off of little nibbles of dog whistle racism and classism (somehow. Seeing as a lot of their voters are working class whites). But now, they’ve basically Pavloved them and all they’re doing is ringing that bell with all their might. So those fuckers are slobbering all over themselves for the juicy pieces of racism being freely dished out by OTHER people who were conditioned by the last generation’s dogwhistles. The new generation of republicans are basically saying “wait, why hadn’t the previous generation thought of outright racism?!” When the answer is they were trying to have some deniability. But fuck all that now. No need for it. Factionalism keeps open racism safe and electable.
Southern strategy. You can connect the dots quite clearly from the hamstrung and incomplete post civil war reconstruction to where we are now. Unhung traitors really do destroy republics, sooner or later.
All they care about is a state-enforced white supremacist hierarchy and making their opponents angry.
Yeah, I know how much sense their behaviour makes, given their goals.
