Anyone watching it would undoubtedly have walked away saying" what's wrong with those stupid republicans & the funny thing is if they didn't find & exaggerate the ridiculous issue no one would even know about it because no one but " they" are even talking about it,not important They wanted to bash Ron D it seems,I live here in Florida- nobody is talking about gas stoves, lol - least of all our Governor! But get a hater,they'll come up with 16 stories from the news & internet regarding how that's all we are concerned with???? Social media,news media,internet will destroy this Country imo,not the twits they talk about.....the people are brainwashed- they're all bonkers! That gas stove thing was both sad and hilarious at the same time. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it can be salvaged, but it's not going to be easy. It needs to rededicate itself to American principles. A break won't help it any more than giving a burglar a break helps the burglar. It just enables him. Reform is possible, but first they have to want to change. He is NOT the Republican Party. The ones who need to be reformed are the racist Democrats who preach racial divide, infanticide, and lawlessness.

That's kind of a tip-off. And this... Seems to have a lot of MAGA hats and Trump banners out.

The information is mixed. The local republican party has denounced him and asked him to resign. Nassau County Republicans, including Rep. Anthony D’Esposito (R-N.Y.), on Wednesday urged Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.) to resign from office over him fabricating portions of his resume during his successful campaign to win election to the House. “George Santos’s campaign last year was a campaign of deceit, lies and fabrication,” Nassau County GOP chairman Joseph Cairo said in a press conference Wednesday. “Today, on behalf of the Nassau County Republican Committee, I am calling for his immediate resignation.” https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/3808787-local-ny-republicans-call-on-santos-to-resign/ But his backers might not care... Santos' major backers include a migrant smuggler, an unlikely Trump donor, the cousin of a sanctioned Russian oligarch and a convicted felon. A controversial donor, who along with his apparent domestic partner gave a combined $34,500 to Santos, is Andrew Intrater, the CEO of a company which once had ties to a sanctioned Russian oligarch Intrater is the CEO of Sparrow Capital — an investment firm formerly known as Columbus Nova. ... Intrater is a prolific donor to Republican candidates and causes — he paid $250,000 to attend former President Donald Trump's inauguration in January 2017. Intrater did not respond to a request for comment. Cheng Gao, an immigrant from China with a Trump Tower apartment who also attended the former president's 2017 inauguration, gave $11,200 to Santos for his 2022 campaign. Gao could not be reached for comment. CBS News has not learned how either Intrater or Gao came to be Santos supporters. Meanwhile, Rocco Oppedisano's family was visibly involved with Santos's campaign. Reportedly an Italian national, the 54-year-old, donated $500 to a victory committee benefiting Santos' campaign in September according to FEC records. That donation to the son of Brazilian immigrants who campaigned as tough on immigration, drew attention after the Daily Beast reported that Oppedisano had pleaded guilty to smuggling undocumented migrants into the U.S. in 2019. A further review of Oppedisano's court records show his criminal record also includes convictions for grand larceny, DWIs, and possession of ammunition by a convicted felon. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/george-santos-donors-what-we-know/ It looks like big republican donors and republican officials are fine with Santos and his behavior, but rank and file republican voters, not so much.

That's partly how Joe got into the white-house as far as I'm concerned. Maybe they thought a lying Republican is better than a Democrat. I've voted for situations like that concerning both parties.
