Illinois Republicans: A Model For the Rest of the Nation

Watching them melt down is fascinating. They are uber partisan these days, bereft of anything constructive, effectively disenfrsnchised, rudderless, and beside themselves.

They can only think to attack democrats, blurt out amorphous and irrational utterances about taxes, and threaten to move.

We will have another blue tsunami in 2020 as their cult leader continues to sink their once proud and semi-functional venal and craven party. Watch Illinois Republicans. This is what we will have to contend with as all of their fantasies are dashed and their irrational hopes and dreams are obliterated.

The Nazi garnered 56,000 Republican votes. You raise a good point.

Let's pound them while they're down. Maybe we can knock some sense into them?

I am hoping J.B. is as good as I think he is. We can do a lot of good things.
