Remember, this is the party that chose to keep the leaders who presided over losing the House, the Senate, and the presidency. So it shouldn&#8217;t surprise anyone when the Party&#8217;s official Twitter account unloads this pathetic cry for help:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">President Biden says he has &quot;no idea if there will be a Republican Party&quot; in 2024. <\/p>\n<p>The Republican Party isn\u2019t going anywhere, and we are going to win in 2022 and 2024! <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/sqPUQMqipT\">pic.twitter.com\/sqPUQMqipT<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; GOP (@GOP) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/GOP\/status\/1375873787653201924?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 27, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>The video in that tweet features a brief exchange from President Biden&#8217;s press conference that Fox news <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=48865\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">found so appalling<\/a><\/strong> and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=48804\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">boring<\/a><\/strong>. the GOP was so shaken by that, they felt compelled to respond. It provided nothing particularly newsworthy, other than a snarky quip by Biden about the GOP&#8217;s tenuous status as a political entity:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Reporter:<\/strong> Do you believe you&#8217;ll be running against former president Trump [in 2024]?&#8221;<br \/>\n<strong>Biden:<\/strong> Oh come on. I don&#8217;t even think about &#8230; I have no idea. I have no idea there will be a Republican Party. Do you?&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The GOP&#8217;s official response to that was the inadvertently honest observation that <em>&#8220;The Republican Party isn\u2019t going anywhere.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Well, DUH! It&#8217;s been painfully obvious to most of the sentient world for the last five years (many more to be precise) that the GOP is going nowhere. They have been hijacked by an intellectually vacant television celebrity who pretended to be a billionaire, but who&#8217;s only real asset was his skill at running con games. And their agenda utterly ignores the needs of the American people, focusing instead on <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=48850\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">more guns and less voting<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Now the GOP (Groveling Old Parasites) are bowing down to Trump and making pilgrimages to Mar-a-Lago to kiss his ring. They are scared witless of angering him for fear that he might aim one his illiterate insults at them, or sic his cult followers on them during a GOP primary. It&#8217;s a display of cowardice unseen before in American politics.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Biden&#8217;s throwaway line about the the GOP&#8217;s future has tied the party up in knots. But they utterly missed the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/briefing-room\/speeches-remarks\/2021\/03\/25\/remarks-by-president-biden-in-press-conference\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">more substantive remarks<\/a><\/strong> Biden made immediately afterward. And that&#8217;s the part that truly devastates the core raison d&#8217;etre of the Republican Party. He began by observing the hypocrisy of the GOP. <em>&#8220;My Republican friends,&#8221;<\/em> Biden noticed, <em>&#8220;were worried about &#8230; the act that we just passed which puts money in people\u2019s pockets.&#8221;<\/em> He was referring to the popular <em>American Rescue Plan<\/em> that <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=48748\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">not a single Republican voted for<\/a><\/strong>. Biden continued&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Did you hear them complain when they passed close to a $2 trillion Trump tax cut \u2014 83 percent going to the top 1 percent? Did you hear them talk about that all? I love the fact that they\u2019ve found this whole idea of concern about the federal budget. It\u2019s kind of amazing.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When the federal budget is saving people\u2019s lives, they don\u2019t think it\u2019s such a good idea. When the federal budget is feathering the nest of the wealthiest Americans \u2014 90 of the Fortune 500 companies making billions of dollars not paying a cent in taxes; reducing taxes to the point that people who are making \u2014 you know, if you\u2019re a husband and wife, a schoolteacher and a cop, you\u2019re paying at a higher rate than the average person making a billion dollars a year is \u2014 something is wrong. Their newfound concern.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>So the GOP ignored Biden&#8217;s eloquent criticism of the their elitist disregard for the welfare of the American people, and his attack on their flaming hypocrisy. But they latched onto his light-hearted recognition that the future is unknowable. Particularly for a party that has sold its soul to a carnival barking grifter. And that&#8217;s the sort of attention to detail that the GOP thinks will secure them victories in 2022 and 2024. Which is great news for the Democratic party.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color:blue;\"><strong>NOTE:<\/strong> Twitter recently suspended the News Corpse account after 11 years without giving a reason.
