Let's boost this far and wide! Not interested in any "this won't work" takes - this is a battle of popular opinion, and if the public realizes that only 20 republicans stand between us and ending this crap now, that adds fuel to our movement.

It's not like those 3 elected Trump. Do you think the election would have gone differently if they'd deregistered as Republican? It would be truly wonderful if it were that easy.

Perhaps I was unclear.

Today, right now, this very moment:

Anyone who still has an R by their name is a fascist.

I agree that they should get around to changing their registration. But not having done that bit of admin is hardly what decides who's a fascist. Your "carrying water" criterion makes more sense and a party registration doesn't carry much water.

Retaining the party affiliation is carrying water for them. If it's just a "bit of admin," then there's nothing in the way of their doing it, is there?

You may disagree, and that's fine, but I am standing on this one. Anyone who still has an R by their name is a fascist.

Who cares what they did during the election if since then they've voted in basic lockstep with Republicans on the nominations.

None of the three I named have been in office for a while.
