File under, "When your organizational imperatives are in direct conflict with each other, hilarity will inevitably ensue"
Consider the two of the most important objectives of anti-Trump Republican club:
- Calling Trump a shithead, which is good.
- Blotting out all inconvenient history which proves that you bear some responsibility for the creation of the Republican monster factor that birthed Trump, which is very bad.
As such, according to the official anti-Trump Republican club calendar, every event of relevance in modern American political history must take place in a cartoonishly compressed time-frame: basically from 2015/16 until today. And because anti-Trump Republican club need to simultaneously obliterate history to hide their complicit and cite history to prove their moral superiority, this leads to some hilarious confusion among the acolytes.
For example, in this corner we have the true, original spirit of the anti-Trump Republican club. No matter how weak or equivocal or tortured or revisionist or sheathed in Both Siderism or too-damn-little-too-damn-late your words of condemnation may be...all is forgiven and welcome to the club! Ouchless absolution with no questions asked!And in this corner we have the new rules of the anti-Trump Republican clubhouse. Your words of condemnation can still be weak or equivocal or tortured or revisionist or sheathed in Both Siderism or too-damn-little-too-damn-late, as long as you said them at just the right time.Look, I share the frustration. I know and like Paul Ryan and wish he said more, said it more forcefully and said it earlier. If you want confrontation, Paul is not your guy. Still, I rather him speak up late rather than never.

Welcome to the Club, Paul. https://t.co/YZE1utQHgP
We have been at a “crossroads” about the future of America since 2015, when Trump came on the scene, and you think by now you’d learn what side your are on. Stay in the middle, get run over.

The further we move from Trump and 01/06 and the closer we get to the elections and Republican political ambitions of 2022 and 2024, the worse this whole tangle of who gets erased, who gets scorned, who gets forgiven, and when, and why, is going to become because the anti-Trump Republican club insisted on messing around with time.

Mr. Glass; I'm not as adept at voicing my observations as yourself but it occurs to me, reading the people here who you're showing, that they aren't speaking to the 80% of the Republican party that are MAGA Trump lovers.
What possible good will it do the Republican party for them to "out" themselves like this? I remember Paul Ryan and he wasn't any party leader material. He was a political rat.
So unless he's getting in on the grift like the rest of the Never-Trumpers, then what's his angle? You don't suppose he actually thinks the average Repugnant out there cares that he's suddenly going to enlighten them on the man do you?
It's just a mystery to me.
Paul Ryan can fuck right off, but if we have to talk about him, can we at least get around to mentioning what a ridiculous fraud he is and always has been?
"Your numbers, Paul, why don't they add up?"
Oh that's right, they were a lie. Shit, that's going on two big lies ago...

Ayn Rand Paul Ryan.
master of words to nowhere. Sarah Palin attempted to compete with Ryan.
But Ryan was mixing words in the dog bowl and Sarah used the salad bowl.
Who awaits people like Ryan to surface from the sewage Treatment pool to bless them with special words?
Paul, buddy, call up The Stench. Get the band back together. Your last tour really killed.
