Tomorrow was supposedly Donnie D Day. Remember?

[SoonerPride]

I remember it was reported breathlessly that if Donnie Dumbfuck hadn’t righted the ship of his campaign by Labor Day that Mitch Fuckface McTurtle was going to drop him and tell Senators to also abandon him and save themselves.

Also that if by Labor Day he wasn’t pulling even the GOP itself was going to flee him en mass.

Well?

What say you?

Will they really just say fuck it trump is a loser and we’re here for ourselves?

Or will they continue to kiss the ring and ass of the bloated swamp monster that is dooming them all?

[DonaldsRump]

1. All of the above: they're Re-Putin-cans, after all!

[StClone]

2. Ship-O-Cons

So committed, and so otherwise unchangeable in their abilities, the current GOP will stay the course and privately fret but quietly be decommissioned in November.

[OAITW r.2.0]

3. Have you noticed how totally dysfunctional the Republican Senate majority is?

McConnell can't do squat anymore. Pence runs the Senate now.

[agingdem]

4. GoOPers...can't afford to part ways this late in the game...

their lips are elephant glued to the elephant's ass...if they disavow him, Trump will rain hell on them...hell being bullyboy taunts...their constituency will stay home on Election Day...that's their dilemma...

[The empressof all]

5. Nope they are all wedged in

They can't turn on him now without looking like even bigger hypocrites than they are. They are hoping for a Trump Hail Mary or that he will become incapable of continuing. Trump having to withdraw from illness is their only hope in saving some degree of their reputations. Then there is always that hacking of the voting machines that has worked for them in the past.

[dchill]

6. It's a criminal conspiracy. They're chained to the Orange Death...

...by their own criminality. Marked lemmings.

7. Whenever/however Trump is gone, there will be many GOP/evangelical retroactive epiphanies.

[JHB]

21. Not epiphanies. Outright disownment.

"I never voted for him, and, y'know, he's really always been a Democrat anyway."

[keithbvadu2]

22. 'He brought us coffee once or twice.'

Yeah... Some falsely deny that Trump is a republican...

Selected/nominated as a republican at the republican convention.
Ran as a republican.
Elected as a republican by the EC.
Acknowledged as the republican leader.

Certainly not an old style republican with morals, honor, ethics and integrity.
Those folks are gone.

But he's a republican.

[SheltieLover]

8. Sure will be interesting to watch play out.

[gristy]

9. He never said that

And if he did, you snowflakes need to get over it.
MF45 is the second coming, and Mitch Fuckface McTurtle will never abandon him. Sniff...

[Yavin4]

10. See Lake Travis

The party is going down just like those boats did.

[2naSalit]

11. By a whole bunch of bkue waves. ...nt

[TlalocW]

12. Welk, right now they're not really jumping to defend him

From the accusations of anti-troop rhetoric published in the Atlantic. Could that be a sign?

TlalocW

[More_Cowbell]

13. I think the Atlantic story might be related

Otherwise, it's a pretty big coincidence that this story came out when it did, giving Republicans a reason to turn away from Trump if they want to.

[eppur_se_muova]

14. Whatever they choose to do will not matter. They are as tightly linked to 45 as Siamese twins.

45 is the Republican candidate, and the embodiment of the Republican Party. No claims to the contrary will be entertained.

[C Moon]

15. I think they've been reassured by Putin that they will be fine.

[czarjak]

16. As genius Noelle Nikpour would say...

"That's a bad dilemma!" (as opposed to a good dilemma?)

[lame54]

17. Mitch may try to untie the rope around his ankle...

But his arthritic fingers won't let him
He's going down

[Norbert]

18. Mitch is doubling down on ads showing Amy McGraths displeasure over a dump 2016 win

[Buckeyeblue]

19. The tell will be a second covid relief bill

If McConnell decides to put the House bill up for vote or negotiates his own bill with the House, it will show that Congress may be breaking away from Trump.

Let's just say the Senate and House work out a compromise and overwhelmingly pass it. Is Trump really going to veto? Or would his hand be forced to sign?

I think that will tell us what's going on. If the Senate does nothing, they either think their majority is safe or they are all-in with Trump.

[Wounded Bear]

20. I don't think it will matter...the Bluenami is on the way.
