How Conservative Meatheads Blew Their Chance to Be Even Bigger Whiny Assholes by Paying Too Much Attention to the King of Conservative Whiny Assholes

They wanted a New Fake Tea Party, but were too drunk on the dregs of the Old Fake Tea Party to cook one up in time to finish off democracy.

‘We got rolled’: How the conservative grassroots lost the fight with Biden because it was focused on Trump

The former president’s presence on the political landscape is making it harder to launch a modern day Tea Party movement.

You needn't bother reading the article.  It cites most of the usual, godawful garbage people like  FreedumbWorks FreedomWorks and The Mad Hatter Manhattan Institute bitching that they were so busy dying on the "Defending Trump's Manifold Treasons" hill they didn't have time to create a national propaganda campaign the scare the shit out people about the threat from Dirty Scranton Commie Joe Biden the same way they did with Dirty Kenyan Commie Barack Obama.

“Everything was moving so fast, the tax provisions were being debated on the fly, so there was very little time for groups to do that in-depth grassroots pushback like we saw during Obamacare,” said Cesar Ybarra, vice president of policy at conservative grassroots organization FreedomWorks. “To create buzz in this town and for it to penetrate across America, you need more time. So yeah, we got rolled.”

That's right kids, they really do look back on their campaign to kill the ACA, deny healthcare to millions of Americans and sabotage the Obama administration at any cost with nostalgia and pride.  And the thing about Zombie Republicans is that, as long as someone is paying them to persist, they keep on comin':

“The timing of the bill happening the same week as the former president’s residence was raided, and you had the split screen of, well, if they could do that to him, they could do that to you, and here’s this bill with 87,000 IRS agents being funded,” said Jessica Anderson, the executive director of the conservative Heritage Action for America.

But others in the party conceded that policy fights are no longer driving activism, at least to the degree they once did. In a Twitter thread, Brian Riedl, an economist with the conservative-leaning Manhattan Institute, said the right’s more recent apathy on economic policy “is partially a focus on culture & troll wars, partly a post-Trump identity crisis...

Plus someone appears to have snuck in in the middle of the night and stolen everyone's lunches and fruit cups from the breakroom fridge, and used the microwave to nuke some week-old trout on the way out.  

In the wake of the FBI’s search of Trump’s home, Trump’s Save America PAC reportedly raked in millions in the following days, according to The Washington Post. Elsewhere, meanwhile, the main Republicans running in marquee Senate races have struggled to build small-dollar donor networks, forcing the National Republican Senatorial Committee to slash ad spending and campaigns and operatives to panic.

Now everyone's just hangry.

And sad.

And everything smells fishy.
