UPDATED: A Pathetic, Fucked in the Head Jane Brady Argues in Favor of the DEGOP Keeping the Racism Going in Transparent Bid to Curry Favor With Witzke

The shambling zombified corpse that is the DEGOP is being led by a cynical fucker who is unguarded about keeping the hate and racism going.
Brady says whether or not Trump has a political future, Republicans must fight to keep the supporters he brought into the party. “I mean he didn’t agree with everybody on everything, and he said what he thought," she said. "People felt emboldened to say what they thought. I think that’s a good thing."

DL Open Thread 1/18/21: Biden’s Looming War on Republican Mendacity and Stupidity & Happy MLK Day

The Delaware Senate Republicans who refused to congratulate Biden and Harris are awful, but the statement on why they voted against a simple bit of civility and decency is appalling beyond measure.  It has the hallmarks of being written by the very appallingly smarmy creep, Anthony Delcollo.   It is meant to signal that Democrats interested in governing and proper order will find only hatred and bitterness if they expect to work with Republicans.  I think we have to the votes, and I hope we have the political will  to utterly ignore these fucking assholes.   They are sorely in need of being judged by the content of thier character.

Why 6 Delaware Republicans refused to congratulate, express support for Joe Biden

This is a good companion to that Delaware story.   Ultimately the American experiment in self-government comes down to people having a bit of character.  

America’s Second-Worst Scenario

Trump Years Didn’t Really Put a Hurting on DEGOP Registration

I'm a little bit surprised to find that DEGOP registration growth tracks with Democrats. Although the DEGOP has fallen to third party status in many DE Rep District - the Trump years shit show didn't cause the widespread abandonment of the DEGOP that one would expect. Nov 2016 R:189,300  D: 320,800 Jan 2021 R:208,300   D: 355,500 Change: +19,000 (10%)  D: +34,700 (10%)   Republicans are just racist motherfuckers who hate America. I guess it is that simple.

The Delaware Republican Party Sickens Me

Prior to last Wednesday the Capitol had never been occupied by the domestic terrorist and homegrown enemies of the United States of American. The seat of government had never been defiled by the enemies of the Constitution claiming to be patriots. It wasn't strong locks on the doors that keep those enemies out. It was the fact enemies of America were not welcomed into our political parties. The enemies of decency have always been with us, they just hadn't ever been encouraged and supported by a political party. The thing that kept our democracy running since June 21, 1788, and kept the Capitol un-occupied was the fact that we all agreed that elections sometimes have outcomes that we don't like. The thing that kept our peace and prosperity since the country's inception is the idea that we agree on basic questions of civics and common decency. So when Republican traitors in the DEGOP boarded buses to take part in the coup attempt, they were not fighting for some noble principle. They are fighting for childishness and shortsightedness. They are fighting for their right to be peevish, selfish and stupid.

Crowdsourcing Ideas for Inauguration Night

I want to do something communal to celebrate Biden's inauguration. People are sick of Zoom, but a Zoom toast to Joe, to America? I don't know. It is corny, and I'd much rather be in DC on the mall whooping it up with my fellow patriots but that will have to wait. So is anybody doing anything? Can we all jam out wi the same song and our doors and windows open? Any and all ideas are welcome.
