“The only division is between a handful of Washington, D.C., establishment political hacks and everybody else all over the country,' Trump said Sunday.

Most notably, these state and local parties launched a barrage of censures or other forms of condemnation not long after a violent pro-Trump mob — inspired by the former president’s lie about a stolen election and egged on that day by Trump himself — stormed the Capitol intent on disrupting Congress as it formalized President Joe Biden’s win.

In Illinois, Larry Smith, chair of the LaSalle County Republican Party and a leader in the effort to censure Rep. Adam Kinzinger after he voted to impeach Trump, told NBC News that local GOP leaders in his state are “overwhelmingly still pro-Trump,” and that the detractors amount to “a splinter group by comparison.”

Jeff Timmer, a former chairman of the Michigan GOP who backed Biden last fall, said that rather than representing the mainstream GOP, the group of 17 Republicans"are the extremists in the party." The resolutions have served as a warning to those in the party who would prefer to chart a new course following Trump’s defeat last fall — the vast majority of the party’s rank and file have no interest. As a result, any such internal civil war-type reckoning is, at the moment, looking increasingly unlikely.Trump as the siege was going on, said that Trump shared some responsibility for the riot.

IF TRUMP HAD BRAINS HE'D BE PRESIDENT

So more than half of the country voted him out, and clearly half the Republicans want him out, sounds like a great candidate 🤣

Please hurry up and prosecuted him .

Chickenshits.

Democrats LOVE LOVE LOVE that Trump is still running the GOP. They've lost their minds and won't snap out of it until Biden gets his second term.

You don't control the narrative anymore thanks to Trump. 🤣 Good luck getting the majority on board with anything you claim ever again! All that influence and nowhere to put it but into your own echo chamber...

no civil war among Rs as long as they all vote 'Nay' together on everything, including 'soldier of morality' and now anit-Trumper RepKinzinger - he just said no to Covid package, voting rights, policing reform act.. so we r at square one everyone!

Being a Republican does NOT have to equal being stupid and cowardly. Will the intelligent and brave please stand up and come forward. The nation needs your help.

Even Republicans don't like this nut. So what's the problem.

He is literally destroying America from within. He truly does despise this country and wants nothing more than to see it in ruins.

No matter of laughing,it happened in Germany, Italy,Spain and quite few countries in South America.

Just don’t call it a new civil war, Perhaps it is just more of a bore, The last sad death throes, Under reality blows, From history, morals and the law.

Yeah that's 2 years from now

American patriots had there chances and blew it. American patriots are all talk 0 action hypocrites. a Civil war would have eneded the covid hoax lie and the fraudulent election to take over America by china. but now, its to late, america is now china. well done american cowards

They got my respect

They will be moving to the front of the respect line soon if the tax prosecutors have anything to say about it.

Trump has started a civil war. Don't be the last to admit this. Don't let the Nixon GOP steal another 50 years.

There is nothing I miss about this orange man/boy

stoplyinabouthaelection

The great state of Georgia put DONALD TRUMP IN HIS PLACE. We stood up to his Yankee bs like a true southerner should. Don't come back to this spot buddy we voted you out . All legitimately. Senators included.

It’s a civil war

Those Anti-Republicans are facing , I think it’s called,“revenge “

Do they know that person number 1 and his wife got vaccinated in January. This person continued to urge his followers not to wear a mask. Go figure.

It’s up to each American to choose! Will you act to support and continue the Big Lie? Will you follow a despot who cares not for you, your needs and your rights? Will you give your hard earned money to a con artist who has shown only the illusion of leadership? Or, choose Truth?

They are implementing restrictive practices against members that have used their free will to speak out on a subject based on the facts. Not misinformation, misdirection, lies, myths and corruption. Not kowtow to the grand master corrupt trump crime family

I call this an anti-democratic revolt

That neck crease is starting to remind me of something...can't put my finger on it tho 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

God I hate seeing that man

Trump supporters would NEVER have had a beer with that man when he was still a New Yorker, but now all of a sudden that he ran on the Right when he's always been a Dem himself and called himself an 'outsider' they love him.

Anti tRump Republicans are true patriots. Trumpers are really those who want a monarchy They should go to any country that still bows and scraps to monarchies.

Get your life! ...before someone else does Give Away Advice Keep Your Sanity

this can’t change: MAGA”45” got Covid vaccine without telling followers. What else should they know? Trump told them Covid was a hoax and did nothing to stop its spread causing the deaths of 500K+ Americans proving he doesn’t care about anyone but himself and can’t be trusted.

It's Trump's last hurrah before his journey to keep from going to prison begins.

Nobody cares. Invest in Dogecoin. It's about to explode. 💰💰💰💰💰💰

What a punk. Donboy will always be a can of hairspray a day punk. 😷

Don't buy this bull about Trump running in the 2024 election.Trump will spend the next few years trying to fend off creditors and prosecutors, as well as the effects of age and unhealthy habits. He’ll pantomime a third campaign because he needs money and craves publicity.

Implosion sounds better.

I want names. Let's have a list of who vs who.

Because they are not sociopaths.

What should we call it then, an insurrection?

Republicans aren't civil.

When are people going to wake up and smell the coffee regarding Trump and his minions. Anti Trump Republicans please stand strong and help your people fir the good.

Punishment from people who choose Trump over the United States

They’re the only ones who will survive
