Hilarious Shot and Chaser Shows Unhinged RINOs Are About to Get Wiped in Primaries – Opinion

Are RINO Republicans really that deluded? Let’s check in with Rep. Tom Rice (RINO-SC). In an interview with ABC’s Jonathan Karl, Rice appears to be reluctant about the idea of having Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) as Speaker of the House, should the Republicans–as expected–take over the House after the November midterms. But guess who he thinks would be a “great speaker”? This is hilarious.

Here’s the shot.

.@ABCNEWS EXCLUSIVE – GOP Rep. Tom Rice explains @JonKarl that he thinks Rep. Liz Cheney would make a “great” Speaker of the House.

“She’s a real Republican. I think she is very conservative and I think she’s fearless leader.” https://t.co/2ZlroTCfl7 pic.twitter.com/Jx1bZPRXye

Rice, who was one of the few Republicans who voted to impeach President Donald Trump, claims Rep. Liz Cheney would be a good choice, “She’s a real Republican. I think she is very conservative and I think she’s a fearless leader.”

That’s delusional, and shows how far gone these folks are. Cheney joined forces with Democrats to compromise the Jan.6 Committee. So, she’s one of the most unpopular RINOs out there. Not just because of her take on Trump, but because she’s attacking Republicans and helping the Democrats. On top of that, she hasn’t even made any attempt at all to reach out to the locals in Wyoming, not caring a whit what they think of her and treating them like their opinion doesn’t matter.

It doesn’t always go down well. She’s 30 points behind her opponent, Trump-endorsed Harriet Hageman for the August primary so she’s about to lose spectacularly. After kicking her out and removing her from every leadership post, it is impossible for Republicans to vote for her as Speaker of the House.

Rice’s thought patterns are a perfect example of how absurd this thought process is. These remaining RINOs fuel Democrats’ firepower at a time when Republicans ought to be focusing on defeating the Democrats in November.

Not only is Cheney about to get wiped, but here’s the chaser. Rice too, according to a Trafalgar Poll. His Trump-endorsed opponent has almost twice his number and is leading by a double-digit margin.

Russell Fry (South Carolina state rep) has a double-digit edge over Rep. Tom Rice(R-SC). This is despite the incumbent’s campaign to maintain his congressional district. It spans from Grand Strand through Pee Dee and was created after he voted to impeach Donald Trump.

More than two-fifths (42%) of likely Republican primary voters would support Trump-endorsed Fry, a former South Carolina General Assembly majority chief whip, if the June 14 election were held today, according to a Trafalgar Group ballot test of the state’s 7th District published on Wednesday.

Thank you @RobertCahalyFor exclusive GOP primary voting in the SC 7th district. Fry 42.2%. Rice 24.9 Arthur 9.8. Richardson 9.6. Barton 2.99 Morris 2.1. McBride 1.5. Undecided 7. Undecided 7.

That’s why Karl trumpeting this thing that’s never going to happen, as though it’s some stunning truth is also hilarious and a sign of how hard up they are to attack Trump, even now.
