I'm not immediately aware of Simon Rosenberg but he spins really good Twitter Threads.
Here is one I like...
Let's take a step back, and review what's happened in recent months:
- Trump steals nation's secrets, lies about it to FBI. Historic security breach.
- Trump's CFO pleads guilty to 15 felonies.
- Trump takes the fifth 440 times in an investigation into his crooked finances.
- Jan 6th investigations establish Trump led a massive illegal conspiracy, involving hundreds of GOP officials incl Sens Graham and Johnson, which sought to overturn an American election and unleashed a violent attack on Congress as part of its strategy.
- The Trump family took $2b from the Saudi government, and launched a new business venture with them here in the US.
- The Supreme Court goes on an extremist field day, ending Roe, legalizing coercive prayer, weakening common sense guns laws.
- States pass medieval abortion restrictions, creating a public health crisis in the United States.- A leading Republican organization brings Putin's closest ally in Europe, Hungary's Orban, to US while we are fighting Putin in Ukraine.
- More mass shootings.
- Election deniers have won GOP primaries across the country. Some of them will get elected this fall.
- Liz Cheney lost her primary to an absolute fucking lunatic.
- Trump has encouraged violence against the FBI/DOJ and attacks have taken place.It's been a tornado of malevolence and venality unlike anything we've seen in American history.
It's why this election matters so much. Voters must reject what the GOP has become or it will get worse.
Things are moving our way but we cannot let up.And there is growing evidence that all this criminality, awfulness and extremism - MAGA - is causing the GOP itself to crack, splinter and meltdown in the closing days of the election.
Praise f---ing be.
Here is another one which was linked in the one above.
This is rich with hyperlinks so open it up for closer scrutiny.
So, is the GOP melting down right now? You decide.
First, the putative leader of the GOP is calling for the Senate GOP leader to be replaced, immediately. 1/
Trump calls for McConnell to be ousted as GOP leader ‘immediately’
Former President Trump on Wednesday called on Republicans to boot Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) from his post as Senate minority leader, accusing the senator of being a “pawn for the Democrats…
The leader of the Senate GOP campaign arm, Rick Scott, is being openly accused of financial mismanagement by his peers. 2/There is an unprecedented and well-funded effort by Republicans to convince other Republicans not to vote Republican.
Liz Cheney will be campaigning with Democrats this fall.
When have we ever seen anything like this? 3/
Anti-Trump GOP group spends big to shrink his base
The nonprofit arm of the Republican Accountability Project is launching ads across all the closest swing states of the 2020 presidential race.
Today there were signs GOP candidates have been told to start distancing themselves from Trump, MAGA, abortion extremism (LOL!!!!).
GOP House candidate in swing district scrubbing site of Trump endorsement. 4/Here's an AZ MAGA scrubbing his site of Trump and MAGA. 5/
Here's the AZ Senate nominee running screaming from his extremist abortion positions. Another website scrub. 6/Here's a CO GOP state senator switching parties, saying the GOP had become an existential threat. 7/
Colorado Republican turns Democrat over ‘existential threat’ from GOP
> In letter announcing defection, state senator Kevin Priola cites political and environmental threat from his erstwhile party
> Jan 6th related investigations spreading.
> GOP leaders in AZ, GA, MI, NV, PA, WI have been subpoenaed.
>Meadows, Lindsay Graham, other MAGAs being called to testify.
Rudy may get indicted. 8/Giuliani Is Told He Is a Target in Trump Election Inquiry in Georgia
Rudolph W. Giuliani, as former President Donald J. Trump’s personal lawyer, spearheaded efforts to keep Mr. Trump in power.
Democratic candidates are raising tons of money. R candidates aren't.
WTF here GOP? 9/And then there is Trump's ongoing criminality, betrayal of the country.
It has become THE GOP news story every day, blocking out all efforts by Rs to reach voters.
And it's likely to get much worse in the weeks ahead. 10/Trump Kept Over 700 Pages of Classified Documents, Letter Says
The letter from the National Archives, which was sent to the former president’s lawyers, described Justice Department officials’ alarm as they realized the nature of the documents at Mar-a-Lago.Lots of unhappiness with GOP House campaign arm too......
is GOP falling apart, melting down, splintering just weeks before people start voting?
Sure looks like it. 11/
