Jennifer Rubin: Democrats' best argument for 2022: The GOP creates chaos

Midterm voters must decide: Do they want to give the unhinged party that can’t admit their cult leader lost and still makes excuses for the domestic terrorists the reins of power?

If you think the Democrats are in disarray, as the media likes to portray them, take a look at the Republicans.

Defeated former president Donald Trump on Monday attacked Sen. Mike Rounds (R-S.D.) for reminding the country that President Biden won the 2020 election fair and square. Rounds shot back that he was “disappointed but not surprised” by Trump’s response (since his party is led by a delusional narcissist, I suppose).

Likely to the chagrin of the former vice president who’d like not to enrage his former boss (who refused to come to his rescue on Jan. 6), Rounds also issued this statement: “Vice President Mike Pence stood his ground, acknowledged President Biden’s victory and acted with integrity. It’s time the rest of us do the same.” Yes, this is a party that doesn’t let Trump’s indifference to Pence’s life stand in the way of traveling to Mar-a-Lago to kiss the cult leader’s ring.
Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) then tweeted a primer on who in the party is not supporting the “big lie” of a stolen election:

Mitt Romney
@MittRomney
Mike Rounds speaks truth knowing that our Republic depends upon it. Republicans like Govs Hutchinson, Baker & Hogan; Sens McConnell, Thune & Johnson; Bush & Cheney; plus 60+ courts and even the right-leaning Wall Street Journal editorial page agree: Joe Biden won the election.

Not on his list: House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.), the 147 House members who disenfranchised millions of voters and Romney’s many colleagues who after the insurrection still voted to jettison electoral college votes for Biden.
