Speaking of PA, the GQP are too busy burying their own:

honestly, in Congress there's enough members where you don't need leadership out of everyone. Sometimes an electable warm body who reliably votes with your caucus is fine.
BDB is a perfectly cromulent Congress critter as long as he can get elected.
but to your point: LMAO

LOL, mean.
He's just as fascist, he just lacks the obvious mental health problems and the personal baggage. A kinder, gentler machine gun hand.
This reminds me of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-t9Z_XBoZU
It's a good video, but the reason it reminds me of Cawthorn being replaced by a nicer-yet-not-better congress critter is the point the video host makes. There are two Christian anti-trans speakers. One of them is an MTG-level stupid bomb thrower and the other is a polite, friendly, more thoughtful person who... shares the same views. When it comes down to it, they have identical opinions. Who cares that one of them is a total ass about it while the other is warm and friendly about it? The same message is put forth.
Dress it up all you like, but hate is hate.

I don’t think any of us are under the illusion here that a nice Republican is any better or safer than a loudmouth douchebag. See: Susan Collins.
I think the main reason I don’t hate loudmouth douchebags is they open the door for a “moderate” (read: white male) Democrat to win a squeaker in a generally favorable Democratic environment. On that note, the Kansas Supreme Court just upheld a Republican-gerrymandered map that will carve up very much not a white male Sharice David’s district in the KC suburbs.

The huge warning to us all, though, is that most Democrats I knew in 2016 were absolutely hoping Trump would win the GQP primary because there was no way he'd win the general...
I could definitely see this playing out in the PA governors race. Shapiro is very appealing to me, and I’m sure he is to other moderates as well, but he is very much an establishment candidate and I don’t see them doing well in the fall.

It is still preferred in my mind to have him get the nomination and elected rather than someone else. All this stuff bubbling under the surface was destroying the country anyway. Now at least it's out in the open.

I thought your original point was there was no difference between Trump and Collins? If not, I misunderstood. Me personally, I think Edwards will be a more reliable ally for McCarthy than Cawthorn, and that’s a huge problem for Americans. Doesn’t mean I’m still not overwhelmingly happy that piece of shit excuse for a human being Cawthorn is out of Congress.
This fall does not currently feature a generally favorable Democratic environment, so it’s not going to matter as much who the Republican candidate is on the ballot so much as they have an ‘R’ next to their name, but you can tell McConnell still gets upset when far-right candidates beat his “Establishment” ones.

We were very lucky the first true fascist leader was Dump. Imagine if it had been someone intelligent and charismatic.
But that's coming next. They're growing them in vats at the Federalist Society.
