Former Republican House Speaker John Boehner on Sunday urged his party to return to its traditional principles, saying a focus on things like fiscal responsibility and strong national defense are key to winning back control of Congress in upcoming elections.

“You know, what I’ve suggested here over the last several months is, Republicans have to go back to being Republicans. Focus in on the principles of what it means to be a Republican: fiscal responsibility, a strong national defense,” Boehner told CNN’s Dana Bash on “State of the Union.” “They can lay out half a dozen principles that I think will help bring our party together, which is really what’s going to be necessary if we’re going to have a chance to take back the majority in 2022 or 2024.”


Sorry John, But the #GOPsurrender is now complete and unalterable.

10. No your role will he remembered

The birtherism. The only obstruction of everything to make Obama a one term president. I remember boehner so happy that he got over 90 percent of what he wanted but he would still not make a deal.

Voter suppression and gerrymandering were their favorite tools. They’ve been sucking up to white supremacists for decades.

Trump and the american first white supremacists are the inevitable outcome from corrupt racist unamerican assholes like Boehner.

14. Yep, Boehner is deceptive. Must be watched. He has sneakily signed onto...

a marijuana venture, as if he's gotten the light and is suddenly kool.

No, he just voted for trump in Nov. 2020, when he was still finishing up his book in which he masquerades as having evolved.

15. John Boehner means we should go back the the Contract on America and the heartless gutting

of America's social services in favor of grandiose weapons spending and the wars of empire fought to justify their purchase.

Like many conservatives he presumes a universal American history that is quite short on fact and long on Patriarchal white privilege.
