As Dan Bongino frequently says, "Republicans aren't the answer to all of our problems, but Democrats are the CAUSE of all of our problems."

I get what Bongino is saying here but I don't like it. It omits the fact that the republican party establishment is also the cause of ALL of our problems, due to their inability, and/or unwillingness to fight against the radical left democrats.
{see mile long list of easily prosecutable criminal offenses committed by democrats that perpetually go unpunished, for proof}

To me, it says: "Conservative voters should be happy to strive for, and accept policies (RINO politicians) that are not what the nation really needs to survive, and thrive, because the democrats are even worse. Accept second best, and be happy, because that's all America is worth."

I don't like that attitude. Nope. Not one bit. That is loser mentality; defeatist mentality. That is the mentality of the republican party establishment- losers, and weaklings, and I'm sick and tired of these kinds of establishment asswipes having any say whatsoever as to how to run this country, and repair our damaged society.

The spineless RINO party establishment of weaklings have absolutely no place in American politics whatsoever. And, if we the people do not rid ourselves of them, we will continue to lose, until we learn our lesson- the "lesser of two evils" is still, evil. We need a better direction.
DeSantis has been given the perfect opportunity to forge that direction, here and now by rejecting the RINO endorsement. He should seize that opportunity.
