After everything that happened with the 2020 election, and all that has gone on since, you would think that Republicans would be more galvanized and unified than ever. Not so.
Instead of standing their ground in the assault against our democracy, a group of Republican Senators decided to help the Democrats pass their $1 trillion dollar so-called 'infrastructure' bill, even though they didn't see it.
"None of us like to talk about it, but the bottom line is when it comes down to money, dollars, and moderates, you can buy them off" said former Texas House Speaker Dennis Bonnen, "I guarantee that if you look deep enough in this bill, you're going to see where those Republican legislators who cut the deal, those were folks who got bought off, and they took it."
As a result, conservative voters and supporters now have to take it. "The GOP has got to stand together" Bonnen told KTRH, "One thing I will give the Democratic party, they know how to refuse to be co-operative."
So when and how will this unity take place? We know that former President Donald Trump is doing his part. But there is still that group of 'RINO's' in Washington (Republicans in name only). Some are suggesting that the key for the GOP? Not just unity, but maybe more 'streetfighters'. "It never hurts to have some good streetfighters, and smart strategists representing you in Washington" Bonnen said, "But part of the challenge I see is that the moderates cut the knees out from under the conservative members when they go cut a bad deal.'
That leads us to the poll question today.
