Trump 47

What can you do as an anti-Trump republican when your whole party has gone full-bore Trump?
Fight on policy grounds. Vote against MAGA legislation that is bad for the country. Get a couple of your colleagues to do the same (if you can...I got to believe there are at least a few that will follow a House leader with some balls) and play the very small majority in the House to your benefit. Fight like hell on an Anti-MAGA, true Republican, true conservative platform and beat Trump's hand-picked MAGA primary opponent.

Rinse.

Repeat.

And if you did get successfully primaried by a MAGA opponent, at least you went down swinging for what you believe rather than leaving with your tail tucked between your legs.

With a razor thin majority you can do quite a bit. He could have refused to pass any legislation until they cut some of the authoritarian stuff out. Demanded full transparency for Dodge, ICE activity, lots of stuff. And if its true there are quite a few Republicans in congress fed up, then they would have held quite a bit of sway.

It would be amazing to find out actual conservatives still exist.

True, other than it seems very little legislation is passing except the BBB, most seems to be executive orders. And, he didn't vote against the BBB, so he is protest-lite at best.

Someone that cares about the country standing up to him pardoning severe criminals would be a breath of fresh air.
 

The Price to Enter Many U.S. National Parks Is Set to Triple for Foreign Travelers​

Interior Department plans to raise cost of annual passes and single-day admissions for international visitors as part of ‘America first’ initiative​


Beginning Jan. 1, an annual pass will cost $250 for nonresidents compared with $80 for U.S. residents, the Interior Department said Tuesday. Nonresidents now pay the same rate as U.S. residents to visit parks. There is no change in the cost for U.S. citizens.

The entry-fee changes are described by the Interior Department as “America first.” The policy also specifies that international visitors without an annual pass will need to pay a $100-per-person surcharge at 11 of the most visited national parks, which include Acadia, Grand Canyon, Yellowstone, Yosemite and Zion.

Parks Getting a Price Increase for International Visitors​

  • Acadia National Park
    Bryce Canyon National Park
    Everglades National Park
    Glacier National Park
    Grand Canyon National Park
    Grand Teton National Park
    Rocky Mountain National Park
    Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Parks
    Yellowstone National Park
    Yosemite National Parks
    Zion National Park
For example, according to the Interior Department’s statement of new fees, at Grand Canyon National Park the cost of driving in a private vehicle is $35. Non-U. S. visitors now would have to pay an extra $100 per person on top of that, making admission for a family of four $435 if they don’t have an annual pass.
