We’ve been seeing numerous Republicans exit the party as it skids to the right, but now, apparently, the fractures may be on the right.
Although I’m also inclined to read this as the whimpering of an immature and power hungry twerp:
“I am on a mission now to expose those who say and promise one thing yet legislate and work towards another, self-profiteering, globalist goal,” [Rep Madison Cawthorn (R-NC), defeated recently in a primary] wrote. “The time for genteel politics as usual has come to an end. It’s time for the rise of the new right, it’s time for Dark MAGA to truly take command. We have an enemy to defeat, but we will never be able to defeat them until we defeat the cowardly and weak members of our own party. Their days are numbered. We are coming.” [Maddowblog – I’m not going to link to the unreadable original Instagram post.]
While this could end in blood for certain Republican Party members that have displeased Cawthorn, I hope not. Cawthorn needs to go find an obscure job and just drop out – it’s clear that he’s not suited to politics or high responsibility.
