GQP Proves “We Can Do Whatever We Want And No One Can Stop Us.”

The Icarian Posted on March 8, 2024 by adminMarch 8, 2024

The GQP sent several powerful messages this week proclaiming “we can do whatever we want and no one can stop us.”

On Tuesday in California, disgraced former baseball player, deadbeat dad and political nonentity Steve Garvey won a senate seat for GQP without a campaign and without a single campaign ad.

Adam Schiff -- Put his career over public good

Adam Schiff — Put his career over public good at time when Dems could ill afford it, screwing the party’s ability to control the Senate and House.

Adam Schiff’s cynical political play to pit Barbara Lee and Katie Porter against each other played directly into the GQP’s hands and helped Garvey mightily. Anti-Garvey campaign ad “he’s just too conservative” ads turned out to conservative catnip and actually helped energize the nearly moribund state GQP and brought them back to life.

Schiff’s selfish and cynical strategy essentially gave control of the senate at a critical moment to the GQP, made it more difficult, if not impossible, to retake the house and screwed the state Democratic party up and down the ballot by reenergizing the GQP.

Thanks Adam.

George Santos. Yes, he’s back and more popular than ever among CONservos. Proven criminal George Santos was prominently displayed at the STOU. He’ll run again.

The GQP loves its criminals and its criminality. Lies and cheating are the way the GQP rolls since it’s the only way they can actually win.

‘Bama Sen. Katie Britt responded to the STOU from a kitchen, symbolic of where the GQP think women belong. We couldn’t see her feet, so we don’t know if she was also barefoot.

And the tRUmp’s takeover of the GQP party and, most importantly for him, all of its cash, was completed with the installation of his henchmen in all major areas of control. The alleged political party is now a wholly owned subsidiary of tRUmp/Putin Inc. Meanwhile, tRUmp had a peptalk and cuddling session with leading fascist mastermind Viktor Orban, who is helping the former guy and his followers turn the USA into Hungary II. The GQP’s political plans are a near exact carbon copy of Orban’s successful democracy crushing strategy.

This is America. https://youtu.be/VYOjWnS4cMY?si=PyEkKMeSbZdokQCh

Don’t Be A Sucker – yet we have so many and another is born every nanosecond.

TRUMP IN ONE SINGLE EVENT
-- "They won't be there for us"
-- "We have some that are really enthusiastic. They're coming already."
-- "This isn't 'need'"
-- "If we need anything, they should be jumping to help us"
-- "We want them to come and help us with the strait"
-- My attitude is we don't need anybody"

One minute the MAGA Reich has destroyed Iran’s navy.The next minute Iran has ships laying mines. 40 mine laying ships. That we destroyed.Maybe.Or maybe we don’t know if they’ve laid any mines.But MAGA needs help clearing the mines we don’t know they’ve laid using ships we destroyed. Oh, and MAGA destroyed 40 ships we already destroyed that are laying mines we don’t if they’ve laid.Maybe. https://theicarian.substack.com/p/never-mind-the-mines-help-the-oil?r=1cnb9h
