RINO Retirement thread

[Solar]

Another RINO is out.
Truth is, the country is sick to death of leftists in both party's.

GOP Rep. Ed Royce of California, (F 48%) who chairs the House Foreign Affairs Committee, announced Monday that he will not run for reelection, making him the seventh GOP committee chairman to forgo seeking reelection since President Donald Trump took office.

Royce, who terms out as chairman this year per committee rules, is the latest in a string of prominent Republican lawmakers to decide against running for reelection.

“In this final year of my Foreign Affairs Committee chairmanship, I want to focus fully on the urgent threats facing our nation, including: the brutal, corrupt and dangerous regimes in Pyongyang and Tehran, Vladimir Putin’s continued efforts to weaponize information to fracture western democracies, and growing terrorist threats in Africa and Central Asia,” Royce said in a statement. “With this in mind, and with the support of my wife Marie, I have decided not to seek reelection in November.”

He joins 29 fellow House Republicans who have announced they are retiring, seeking another office or stepping down effective immediately since President Donald Trump entered the White House.

Taxed, Can we provide you with a list of the folks that we would give our eyeteeth to see retire?

You could, but it looks like they're all "stepping down" anyway...

I think we need a dedicated forum just for the loser Marxists getting the boot from both party's.
From Pizzagate, to pandering and every conceivable treasonous act in between, the nation is puking them out like bad potato salad that sat in the sun for a week.

So another RINO bites the dust! Here is a list of RINOS we dont have to deal with anymore.

Arguably the most dangerous denizens of the swamp are feeling the "drain". 

[AndyJackson]

I believe Trump sat down and asked Ryan "do you want to enjoy a nice retirement.......... or do you want to be officially questioned about your involvement in the Awan coverup, and the sex-payoffs-hush-money coverup ?".

Trump wins again.  Just don't let Boehner's boy McCarthy become speaker;  we said no to him already.  Scalise or somebody more conservative than him.

Next up, shitcanning Bitch McDongpull.  If Trump knocks out both of these assholes, I will be terribly impressed.

Nine (9) things about Ryan's walk we should probably consider...( *look at #6*)

One symptom that the republicans cannot find their asses with all hands is that  THEY COULD NOT FIND ONE AMONG THEM WHO WANTED THE JOB OF SPEAKER, (one that was half-qualified), and another is that republicans are forever RUNNING CANDIDATES WHO SIMPLY CANNOT WIN.  The republican brand is close to sucking.......... mud.

[The Boo Man...]

Finally. He like the last guy that won't leave after the party is over.

That's surprising. I would have thought he would invest in tobacco and tanning beds.

Apparently advocating for weed pays better than simply dealing it.
I'm surprised he didn't go to work for Seagrams.

First, ben shapiro seems to be convinced a blue wave is coming cuz he believes the polls that everyone hates trump. There is no good evidence of this blue wave and no one can give a good reason for why it shld happen. In fact it the tea party that seems really fired up right now. Ben also seems somewhat sympathetic to the establishment GOP even tho he isnt part of the swamp.

Second, as to the republican brand sucking, i agree. But it still sucks less than the dems. In general, Havent the gop been steadily winning more elections than lost since 2010?
