The Lincoln Project: It's His Party

Donald Trump & Tucker Carlson Show the Danger of the Republican Party | The Warning w/ Steve Schmidt
If Americans are foolish enough to re-elect that dud into office, they will deserve all they get. Without question, Messrs Jinping & Putin are watching very closely – and hoping! Could there possibly be a better outcome for them in 2024 than for The Donald to be re-elected? And for Americans and the rest of the world? A disaster – an unmitigated disaster. – © Mark Alexander

The Guardian View on Republican Extremism: Trumpism Flourishes
THE GUARDIAN: Some of the party’s elite may be belatedly awakening to the costs of their cynical choices, but others are doubling down
That someone is ludicrous doesn’t stop them being dangerous, as Donald Trump and now Marjorie Taylor Greene have demonstrated. The new Georgia congresswoman has not only repeatedly spread racist and antisemitic statements; she has suggested a Jewish banking family might have been involved in starting wildfires with “space lasers”, repeatedly endorsed QAnon conspiracy theories and questioned whether the Pentagon was attacked on 9/11. Her views are no less poisonous and extremist for being so bizarre.
The most frightening and extraordinary thing about her, however, is that she is now welcome at the heart of the Republican party. Though Mitch McConnell, the Senate minority leader, has described her “loony lies and conspiracy theories” as “a cancer for the Republican party”, his diagnosis comes much too late. Kevin McCarthy, his counterpart in the House, boasts of a “big tent” – so large that it now includes those who have supported the killing of political opponents. It took Democrats to strip Ms Greene of her committee positions via a House vote on Thursday, an unprecedented move that should never have been necessary. They are happy to seize the opportunity to portray the GOP as Ms Greene’s party. But they are not so wrong to do so. » | Editorial | Friday, February 5, 2021

George P Bush Looks to Continue Family's Political Legacy
Land Commissioner candidate George P. Bush speaks during a visitation even while on the campaign trail Wednesday, Feb. 19. 2014 |
George P Bush, the grandson of George HW Bush, has won his first election in Texas as he looks to continue the political dynasty.
The 37-year-old lawyer is the nephew of George W Bush, who was governor of Texas before becoming president, and the son of Jeb Bush, the former Florida governor considered a potential 2016 Republican presidential candidate.
The younger Mr Bush is widely hailed as a future star of the party. His mother is Mexican and he speaks Spanish, offering an inroad to Latino voters who vote overwhelmingly for the Democrats. » | Raf Sanchez, Washington | Wednesday, March 05, 2014

THE DAILY TELEGRAPH: Mitt Romney finally won enough delegates to clinch the Republican nomination on Tuesday, ending a long and bruising journey to become his party's challenger to Barack Obama.
Mr Romney won 71 per cent of the vote in the Texas primary, inching him above the 1,144 delegates needed to secure his place as the Republicans' presidential candidate.
The former Massachusetts governor has been the de facto nominee since his last major rival, Rick Santorum, dropped out of the race in April and marked the milestone with only a simple statement, saying he was "honoured" and "humbled" at his victory.
"Our party has come together with the goal of putting the failures of the last three and a half years behind us. I have no illusions about the difficulties of the task before us," he said.
"But whatever challenges lie ahead, we will settle for nothing less than getting America back on the path to full employment and prosperity." » | Raf Sanchez, Washington | Wednesday, May 30, 2012

THE GUARDIAN: Chris McGreal in Trenton reports on the controversial record of the man many believe could challenge Barack Obama
Some of Chris Christie's political allies have a telling way of describing the man who has become the most talked-about candidate for the Republican presidential nomination, even though he's adamant he's not running.
They have in recent times called the New Jersey governor "a bully and a punk", "vindictive", "deranged" and "a rotten prick".
Then there are Christie's political enemies – and that's how many regard themselves, not merely as opponents. They describe the governor, who claims to be the leader who can reach across the ideological divide and break the partisan deadlock in Washington, as conducting a "rule of anger", of having "a remarkable inability to have a civil dialogue" and of using his powers as an "instrument of revenge and rebuke". He has also been derided as "the king of liars".
Christie burst into the race for the presidential nomination, even without declaring his intention to run, with a speech at the Reagan Library in California last week that electrified many conservatives who fear their party's existing crop of candidates – led by Rick Perry and Mitt Romney – are not cutting it. » | Chris McGreal in Trenton, New Jersey | Saturday, October 01, 2011
