Comments by "Jim Werther" (@jimwerther) on "GOP to oust key Dems from House committees as it takes majority" video.

  1. The old rule was that Committee members are decided by their own party, period. And then the Democrats broke that rule last year by kicking out both Paul Gosar and MTG. Now, both Gosar and MTG are total buffoons, but that was for the Repiblicans to decide, not the Democrats. As such, removing farbage such as Ilhan Omar, Eric Swalwell and Adam Schiff is absolutely appropriate payback. But I would add that Rashida Tlaib needs to go as well.

  2. There is no bigger RINO than Donald Trump. He is not a conservative, and he couldn't care less about the Party, nor about the Country. He backed garbage candidates who pledged loyalty to him, which is why we lost the Senate, and nearly lost the House as well. McConnell spent over $200m on GOP Senate races. Trump? After fundraising over $100m from regular Americans two years ago, convincing them that he would use it to overturn the 2020 election results, he instead pocketed the money. And then spent less than 1/10th on GOP candidates than Mitch did. As to McCarthy, he is not my favorite, but he traveled non-stop for months all over the US to help Republican candidates, while Trump instead attacked Republicans on his "Truth Social", and used campaign rallies that were supposed to be about the local candidates to instead talk endlessly about himself, at times even making fun of the candidate he was there to ostensibly support. Trump Cultists began following politics in 2015. For those of us who have been around for longer, we know that no one alive today has done as much for the conservative movement as Mitch McConnell has.
