    Gaetz will be crushed. He’s committed several “sins” that even the Republican’s will not tolerate nor forgive; publicly exposing the coke fueled parties is one and sending the GoP into a spiral with his crusade against McCarthy is another.

      The morality goal posts got removed a while ago.

      I think the only way to get kicked out now is if they don’t like you already. And even then… Ted Cruz, you know?

        I imagine Cancun Cruz is allowed because he’s mostly self sufficient. He strikes me as the type that knows enough of the ins and outs that the other leaders don’t have to babysit him and tell him things like “don’t admit to the crack and orgies”.

          One of my favorite quotes about Tedward is about how Al Franken said he liked him more than most of his colleagues, and he fucking hated Cruz.

        Madison Cawthorn got ostracized after not kowtowing to the local republican powerbroker + after outing other republicans as drug addicted sex addicts.

        The second point might not even have been an issue, if he hadn’t ran in the wrong district in his state. It does seem like there’s no amount of debauchery bad enough for the republican party, anything goes and they count on the right wing (+Russian) alternate fact propaganda machine to not mention it or to muddy the waters if the scandal has become too big. The big lie of “both sides” is still going strong.

      Hasn’t stuck to him yet, why do you think it will?

      they tolerate and forgive this sort of thing constantly.
