Yet their base will just accept the flip flop because they seem to just be endlessly content with hypocrisy.

Hypocrisy is the name of the religion they follow.
They don’t need to remember anything when their media leads them by the hand.
How dare you! They are not hypocrites!! Democrats are always wrong about everything, so who cares if you have to abandon logic, reality, and consistency in order for the world to make sense?!
Being objectively wrong is an insignificant price to pay when it still feels like you're right!

No, the base will not accept the flip. And that's why the GOP is so concerned.
Once a person gets a bad taste in their mouth, it's all but impossible to wash out. It's now a gut feeling, and it's not going away.

Ever hear about toothpaste and mouthwash? 😛
I'm thinking soap.
I'm thinking you had an abusive grandparent 😛
One even replied to you! 🤣🤣🤣
Trump’s handpicked chair of the Republican National Committee, his daughter-in-law Lara Trump:
“In this election cycle, Republicans will beat Democrats at their own game, by leveraging every legal tactic at our disposal based on the rules of each state.”
So...taking part in an election according to the laws is the Democrats own game?
I still remember the GOP trying to dismantle the USPS while trump was in office. Even destroying perfectly good equipment! Guess they had a change of heart?!?
I doubt it since DeJoy is still the Postmaster General
I don't understand why though 🤷♂️
Biden can't fire DeJoy. It's a 9 member committee that has control.
That committee can have only 5 members of one party. Biden also can't just remove someone from the committee, there needs to be specific cause.
It's that committee which would need to remove DeJoy.
Because apparently Democrats also don't care if the Post Office is destroyed and privatized. They may say they do, but in terms of action there is none.
You should read how it works.
They don't want fascism, they just want the dems to magic handwave away all the problems.
There are literally still two vacant seats on that board, unfilled, four years into Biden's presidency. And Biden has put a democrat and a republican in already. Guess what, if he had just done exactly what Trump will do and filled all of the vacancies with democrats, they would have the majority. But he didn't, and he won't, so we all have to sit around and watch while the post office dies
I really hope Trump tells his supporters to vote in person again this election
This was a huge problem even when Trump was running.
It's not like people tried to warn them, but I guess the idea that older generation that have a harder time moving around might actually want/need mail in ballots to vote.
You know, being considerate of your voters and such.
