Just look at the glee with which the Leftist/MSM are trumpetting this. Who gains when we discard Noem for what we see as a mistake or a traitorous act (a wide spectrum, true). It won't be the Leftist/Dems destroying her; it'll be WE who will plunge the dagger. Kill off someone who has mostly done and said right. She's no Mitt Romney, Susan Collins, or many other easily-named RINOs out there. Maybe a little moderation/tempering of your all-or-nothing rhetoric is not a bad idea...
[I find the rabid emotionalism here is quite surprising, with this discussion board populated with obviously good thinkers and folks steeped in conservative principles.]
I think Prager articulates well what I'm trying to get at: Our side is oddly intolerant of any flaws in our [GOP] politicians, ready to scorch-Earth them for each mistake, great or small, even if we otherwise agree with them 80-90%. When we know that if a Leftist/Dem were to replace them, we'd disagree them with in the other direction, 80-90% (or more, these days).
Folks, can't we criticize and correct without talk of destroying someone? If we can't, we (almost) might as well start calling it Cancel Culture, conservative-style.
Because we are sick of being betrayed on EVERY ISSUE for DECADES and are not going to accept it anymore. The entire Republican office holding set needs to be replaced.
Perfect is the enemy of the Good.
