.smerconish: “Quite simply, for Joe Biden and Democrats, it's no longer enough to just be an alternative to Donald Trump.”

Republicans from across the conference -- including some who are vulnerable in next year's midterms or have long been seen as part of the establishment wing of the party -- are expressing little to no reservations about the prospect of Trump topping the ticket again, even as he continues to spread the same election lies that led a mob to storm their place of work. Some GOP members are cheering on a Trump comeback, saying he remains a popular figure and powerful force in the party.

When asked last week if he believes Trump bears any responsibility for January 6, Grassley noted that the committee's probe didn't dive into the events of that day, suggesting he'd wait to make a conclusion on that if there's a further probe -- carried out by Senate Judiciary Chairman Dick Durbin, an Illinois Democrat. "We'll just have to wait and see if he does more investigation," Grassley said.

smerconish CNN hated Trump but they couldn’t stop talking about him, now it seems like they outright just want him back, he was good for ratings after all. One doesn’t know what or who to believe anymore. What is news or just sectionalism, or simply a ploy for more viewership?

smerconish Democrats do not explain to the citizens over mass media as tv or interviews what are there trying to achieve with the rescue packages etc. also instead of fighting back for every single appearance Republicans make with unreal or untrustworthy information, Democrats do nothing.

smerconish Sick of hearing the name trump. Don't want to see his name on the 2024 ballot.

smerconish FFS CNN, When the fk was is ever that?

Donald Trump not 'off limits' for a January 6 subpoena, committee chair says'Nobody is off limits to a subpoena from this committee,' House 1/6 Select Committee Chairman Bennie Thompson said. I’m actually disappointed, as I’d heard TGF will go to the opening of an envelope these days. So you'll attempt to bring in Donald, he'll make a big show of resisting, then he'll plead the Fifth. Has anyone ever been more tired of reading and listening to politicians talk about what they're going to do and how? The entire GOP should be subpoenaed by now, including Trump and everyone in his cabinet. Shut up and do it.
