One thing I'm curious about... do you think a lot of these people legitimately want Trump back, or is it more that they don't yet know the political ramifications of supporting or ostracizing him? Maybe it's a combination of both. I just get the innate feeling that if they could ostracize Trump then many of them would, but they're afraid of rocking the boat and/or fracturing support from Trump's base, so they're just kind of maintaining a complicit facade.

They legit want trump back. He has ardent supporters at all levels of government. He says out loud the things they've thought for years. 1 Link to comment

Enhance Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 This is hysterical. Omaha-area Republicans fall short in effort to censure Sasse Quote The county GOP fell three people short of the quorum needed to vote on the resolution. Party organizers then made a last-ditch effort to add people to the central committee from the crowd to replace those who left. But each time they added someone to the central committee, the number needed for quorum climbed. I know a reporter who was covering this. They said at one point, some woman there whipped out a $100 bill and was like "OK who do I have to pay here right now to make this vote happen" and people had to be like "uh... it doesn't work that way." I respect the Republicans that got up and WALKED OUT of the meeting to intentionally submarine this whole asinine censure business. 3 Link to comment

It's just a formal way of rebuking a public official, but outside of potentially altering public opinion, don't think it means much. Link to comment

And, why it's even more stupid for the Republican party for doing it. If it really doesn't do anything, why create what appears to the majority of Americans as an idiotic move? It's clear they have no desire to appeal to anyone other than staunch Trump supports. 1 Link to comment
