This week, more than 100 Republicans, including some former elected officials, signed a letter threatening to form a new political party if the GOP continues to embrace Donald Trump. Former Trump Homeland Security official Miles Taylor, who is spearheading the movement known as The Republican Political Alliance for Integrity and Reform, spoke to NBC’s Joshua Johnson about the organization's goal. Aired on 05/16/2021.

1. They need to get in it.

2. I hate to tell him, but he's not going to be able to go back

Nixon and Reagan and then Dumdum made their deals with the worst devils this country has to offer and now those devils have taken over. He'd be best to save his energy and organizational skill set and use them on forming a new Hamiltonian party.

The devils won't be able to hold things together for too long, infighting is inevitable and will always take over once the old guard and highly principled are gone and it's an open fight for the top of the garbage heap.

Hamiltonian parties in this country have been stable only when they've stayed small, that's their paradox. Once they decide to seek consistent power by welcoming the devils in, they're pretty much done.

5. If this means a Manchin/Sinema-proof Democratic majority win next election

Then by all means.

6. If they really cared about this country, they'd back Biden.

7. How many of them are in positions of authority?

Elected to, say, the house or senate, or local house or senate positions?

Because all the retired ones trying to pretend that the R party used to be a good respectable group arent really relevant to anything except creating a tactical fall back position in case the current direct push for fascism fails

9. I barely heard a word Taylor said, I was too distracted by

the background in his house. What is that?
