Let me shout from the rooftops that I warned righteous House Republicans not to expel Rep. George Santos (RN.Y.). Every word of their virtue speaks to them, as it did on February 13, when Biden Democrat Thomas R. Suozzi defeated Republican candidate Maji Pilip in a special election for New York’s 3rd Congressional District. I knew it would bite me. Almost 8 points difference.
It’s not that the hapless Republican candidate did a bad job of attracting votes. As expected, her spending exceeded that of local Democrats, who were flush with Hollywood and tech money. Pillip epitomized the Republican Party’s attempts to promote its own identity candidates. As an Ethiopian Jew who served in the Israeli paratroopers and was married to a Ukrainian Jewish doctor, she ran in a district with large numbers of Jewish and black voters.
It might be a good idea for Republicans to stop flaunting moral purity, which has disastrous consequences.
While Republicans seriously thought they had covered all their bases, she worked tirelessly on the issues that were perhaps most important to voters in her district: illegal immigration and the war on Hamas.
The Republican candidate lost in a landslide to her Democratic opponent, who denounced her as a right-wing extremist. While hiding past support Biden’s policies also include, until recently, Democratic positions on the porous border. If the 105 Republicans had not voted to expel Mr. Santos, even before he was convicted in court of criminal charges, Mr. Santos would still be a voting Republican member of the House of Representatives. It would be.
One can only imagine the joy Democrats must have felt watching Republicans try to expel their own representatives for morally inappropriate behavior. I couldn’t even imagine that the Democratic Party would do something like this. Democrats may weaponize the Justice Department against their political opponents and push bizarre concepts like banning public recognition of two different genders while funding transgender surgeries for teenagers. It shows the virtue of standing up for one’s position.
Congressional Democratic Party You can put a Chinese spy to sleep, whether it’s setting off the fire alarms at the Capitol on a whim or continuing to deceptively claim to have evidence that Donald Trump is working for Vladimir Putin, it’s offensive to them. nothing will fall. When Republicans passed a resolution to censure Black Lives Matter supporter Jamaal Bowman for his heinous firefighting actions, just before Congress was scheduled to vote on his opposition, Democrats called for war. I proceeded to
For the Democratic Party and its media owners, it would have been a racist act in itself to suggest to Bowman: friendly to Hamas BLM supporter, engaged in inappropriate conduct that physically endangered a co-worker. Bowman’s party also has not made any attempt to oust New Jersey Sen. Robert Menendez. Apparently, it doesn’t matter much to their party colleagues that the Menendezs are facing accusations of accepting foreign gifts and engaging in large-scale money laundering. Democrats coddle politicians while Republicans cannibalize them in the name of promoting virtue.
I still can’t get over the fact that the Democratic Party faithfully supported Representative Adam Schiff (D-Calif.). when he lies repeatedly About having damning evidence that Trump and his staff are Russian assets. Unlike the disgraced Santos, Schiff is currently The next U.S. senator from Californiais well-funded by cartfuls of Democratic donors.
To make matters worse, Republicans have yet to find a way to win outside of safe red areas. As we saw last week, they aren’t very good at flipping purple districts. The more resourceful Democrats seem to easily outplay their opponents and wage a much better ground game even without cheating, and will be willing to do so if necessary.
Either way, Republicans will need to come up with a new strategy and spend a lot of money on advertising in order to overthrow the government in November. And they will need to find some way to minimize Democrats’ use of lax voting practices that allow for massive fraud.
But in the meantime, it might be a good idea for Republicans to stop flaunting moral purity with disastrous consequences.
Last week, the other side reaped a big prize thanks to House Republicans. Democrats succeeded in shrinking the House Republican majority to an almost impossible point. Santos was a gift horse that his fellow Republicans should cherish. To his credit, he managed to sneak into office while his predecessor, Mr. Suozzi, fruitlessly pursued a gubernatorial run.
The Republican Party’s moral stance should be understood not to be a victimless crime. If Congress is in Democratic hands, nearly half the country – the decent, patriotic half – will suffer. A victorious left will do everything in its power to complete the task of transforming a once laudable constitutional state into a woke one-party system.
Whatever his personal failings, Santos was one of the barriers resisting the project. Now, this sacrifice to moral purity has been replaced by reliable allies in Biden and Schumer. One wonders whether the conservative journalists and Republican politicians who called for Mr. Santos’ removal even care about the damage they have caused.
