    Some GOP officials are urging Republican voters to back Democrats in 2022 to save the party from 'pro-Trump extremists'

    You definitely want to keep these pro-Trump extremists out of offices?!! I glad there are still some sane republicans left and care more about democracy too?!!

    Two GOP officials have urged Republican voters to vote Democrat in the 2022 midterm elections, suggesting that this might be a way for the GOP to "battle pro-Trump extremists."

    Miles Taylor, a Trump-era Department of Homeland Security chief of staff, and Christine Todd Whitman, a former Republican Gov. of New Jersey, penned an op-ed in The New York Times on Monday. Taylor was the Trump administration official who, under the pen name "Anonymous", wrote a 2018 op-ed in The Times describing a "resistance" of Trump administration officials working to tamper the former president's "worst inclinations."

    Together, Taylor and Whitman asked that the GOP's base consider supporting Democrats so that "conservative pragmatists" could retake control of the party.

    "Rational Republicans are losing the party civil war. And the only near-term way to battle pro-Trump extremists is for all of us to team up on key races and overarching political goals with our longtime political opponents: the Democrats," Taylor and Whitman wrote.

    The un American GOP should be contained and isolated at being declared a enemy of the State and a enemy against humanity and its soul.

    "The Lincoln Project
    lincolnproject.us
    The Lincoln Project is an American political action committee formed in late 2019 by former and present Republicans. During the 2020 presidential election, it aimed to prevent the re-election of Donald Trump and defeat all Republicans in close races running for re-election in the United States Senate. In April 2020, the committee announced its endorsement of Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden.Wikipedia"

    A good start.

    "Rational Republicans" = unelectable, unheard RINOs to our friends in the Reichwing. They're going fascist all the way!

    That's called being smart.

    Nice to know at least SOME Republicans care about America and put country over selfishness, greed and hatred.
