The Republican Party, and what they NEED to do now

If the 2020 Election gets stolen in full, and Corrupt Joe Biden, and "Round-heeled" Kamala Harris take power in January, this will be, in part, due to the wimpy Republican Party, and its representatives and senators in Washington.  When the DemocRats have a goal, they pursue it with singleminded zeal, and they all fall into …
