Related: About this forumRepublicans Suddenly Worried That Embracing Conspiracy Theories Could Cost Them - Ring of Fire
Republican operatives are starting to sound the alarm about elected officials embracing conspiracy theories - specifically, Trump's conspiracy theory that the election was stolen. These operatives are now worried that this move by the Party could cost them big time in the elections, as polls are starting to show that voters are being put off by the new direction of the Republican Party. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains what's happening and how it could easily cost Republicans big time - as it should.

I have Mary Trump's new book and she says that the demographics in this country are no longer in their favor, so they've realized that the only way that they can win is to prevent certain groups from voting.
