Currently 17% of non-white House members are Republicans. This represents a shift from the last Congress, when just 10% of non-White lawmakers were Republicans. A gain of 7%.

So what?

And there's a shift, if not a sea-change, occurring with Hispanics. Pete doesn't know this because they don't discuss it where he gets his news, but they are shifting right.

i’m sure you’ll let us know if she proposes a bill that’s racist.

Let us know if there’s a republican on the planning and zoning committee in Wichita Falls who illegally took the tags off her mattress, OK?

GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene Speaks At White Nationalist Conference
The congresswoman from Georgia spoke at the America First Political Action Conference, organized by white nationalist "groyper" leader Nick Fuentes.

The real story is that Republicans no longer fear openly attending a white supremacist conference. They know there will be no backlash from the GOP or their voters. That wouldn't have been true 20 years ago.

pete was the one who said the republican did something wrong without specifying.

Why not direct that at him?

You’re right GS, there’s no reason, none, to suspect Clinton did anything on that island. nothing in his past behavior would strongly suggest he’s a pervert and a predator of women. nothing. right?

The answer to your “very simple question” is
I don’t care a bit what she said, she by her presence promoted the white supremacist show.
Normalizing that #^&#^&#^&#^& is not acceptable, but apparently you think it’s fine to support

well you butted into the dance to ask me a question. Which i answered directly. i merely asked
for the same courtesy.

It’s ok for you to ask me a question, but childish when i ask you a question. Why is that? or is that another childish question?

But they are A OK with Jim

Ronna McDaniel statement on Marjorie Taylor Greene appearance last night at Fuentes event: “White supremacy, neo-Nazism, hate speech and bigotry are disgusting and do not have a home in the Republican Party.”

"As everyone understands, this horrific disaster would never have happened if our election was not rigged, and if I was the president," Trump continued. "Very simple: It wouldn't have happened

Trump at CPAC

And American will still vote for this Scumbag

Trump at CPAC

because policy results are infinitely more important than stupid obnoxious tweets, when it comes to an executive.

i wouldn’t want trump to be my father. i wouldn’t choose for him
to be my president either, but if the choice is trump and hilary, or trump
and biden, or trump and bernie….that’s a distasteful
choice. But a very easy choice.

When unethical democrats run, that’s ok.

but when immoral republicans run, you act like voting for him
means i endorse everything he’s ever said or done.

it’s s stupid argument. you’re choosing which candidate will enact better policies to help the country. Toward that end, integrity would obviously be nice, but it’s not required.

58% of americans said they were better off after 4 years of trump. that was an all time record.

to say that trump lives “rent free” in all of your heads, is a colossal
understatement.

Mitt Romney on Trump (and other Republicans) praising Putin: “How can anybody in this country, which loves freedom can side with Vladimir Putin (who) is an oppressor, a dictator, he kills people, it's unthinkable to me. It's almost treasonous.”
