republicans want an oligarchy
they'll get cast aside soon enough.. the new emperor doesn't need a congress.. or a legislative branch of government.
I think they'll be kept around for the appearance of democracy. I recently learned that even North Korea maintains opposition parties, which of course have no power.
Republicans are the oligarchy
Shrugged? They lubed up and bent over...
"I don’t think he’s cutting into congressional power,” Sen. Mike Crapo
RIP Satire
His name checks out.
Nazis. All of them.
This is the party w/ daddy issues. These are the people that were praising that "Daddy's home and he has his belt off".
So it doesn't matter who they are cucking for, as long as they have the right affiliations and hate the same set of people.
Like with any dictatorship they'll always change the plot.
Trump is doing a tariff dance in the press to manipulate the market, while Fuhrer Musk is taking control of the actual power in government, the purse strings.
Ahh first time I've seen him called Fuhrer musk. Gonna have to adopt that
They have always wanted to break the government. They are okay with what's happening, they knew it was going to happen, and they wanted to continue.
They're forced to follow Trump lockstep
Musk is backed by Trump

Musk is backed by Trump
I hear you, but I think you have the power dynamic backwards on this section
It's the only dynamic that matters to Republicans

Kind of like what happened after the initial violence in the fall of the roman republic. It started with sword point power grabs, but as time went on, they stopped ever trying to get any power back into the senate, and eventually bled out so much power that we don't even know when the last meeting was. They just became so irrelevant.
Traitors history will remember them
Only if the lose...
They didn't have the power before
