GOP Group Calls Out Trump’s Enablers In Congress By Name In Scathing Fox News Ad

.... The new ad from the Republican Accountability Project, set to air on Fox News on the first anniversary of the attack, focuses on five lawmakers who were sharply critical of Trump last year, but since either changed their tune or went silent.

“They told the truth then. Why won’t they now?” the text on the screen reads after clips featuring comments by House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.), Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) and Rep. Mike Gallagher (R-Wis.): ....

The Republican Accountability Project has been running ads targeting members of the party who enabled Trump, complete with an online “Hall of Shame” of 13 lawmakers who “actively invented and disseminated lies, misinformation and conspiracy theories.”

The spot is set to run during “Fox & Friends,” “Hannity” and “Tucker Carlson Tonight” on Thursday ....

Cowardice
Some Republicans have made it clear that they cannot be trusted with power

The balance has turned against the responsible, reasonable wing of the Republican Party. Most Republicans in Congress abetted the insurrection on January 6 and ignored, excused, or even participated in the dog whistles to QAnon and other dangerous conspiracy theories.

Most Republicans went along with the trend because it was politically safe, but a few of them drove the trend. They actively invented and disseminated lies, misinformation, and conspiracy theories to rile up their base and advance their own careers at the expense of the country and the Constitution.

They have made it clear that they can never be trusted with power. To ensure that as few of them as possible return to Congress in 2022, we will recruit and support primary candidates against them through our political action committee where strategically viable.

1. That might strike a nerve

in six or seven viewers.

3. Hah, I see what you did there!

5. I'm a helpless optimist. n/t

6. I'd hazard to guess more than that

A vast majority of the Repubs I speak with don't agree at all with Trump and 1/6, but choose the cowardly route and stay silent as expected by the party. If someone would stand up en mass, they would start to follow. ie, most are sheep

Right now, Trump made it party first, policy - policy? umm, yeah, it's to oppose whatever the Dems want :/

[Harker]

8. I sure hope so.

Collectively, they've shown little circumspection.

The impetus for reconciling with reality would be most meaningful, though, if it comes from within their own ranks.

2. That accountability site has some interesting info.

This page was really interesting to scroll through. There are 7 republican senators who scored "excellent" on democracy. Will they vote for a voting rights bill?

17. We should take websites like this

and email/text them to all the repugs we know.

7. 'analysts' predicting big GOP wins in 2022 are enabling manchin and sinema and not factoring

what the investigations will reveal.

hopefully today the DOJ will signal even bigger headaches for tfg and his helpers
