We all know how well the Never Trumpers are taking the election results. We know that Bill Kristol and The Bulwark crew all voted for Kamala Harris, although Jonah Goldberg revealed that he wrote in Paul Ryan. I guess Ryan is the right kind of Republican to win back Goldberg and Kristol and Rick Wilson and David French.
I was almost convinced this was a parody, but the guy's X handle is @CountryFirstRep and he says in his bio that he's a conservative Republican voter "terrified by the state of the Trumpist GOP." Well, stay terrified, little buckaroo.
This is who he's begging to become the Republican Party again:
Make this the Republican Party again...

Seriously? I remember writing about Planned Parenthood presenting John "Maverick" McCain with a superhero cape after he voted against the "skinny repeal" of Obamacare. He got the nickname Maverick for bucking the Republican Party and siding with the Democrats. Another loser of the presidential race was Mitt Romney, who didn't endorse Harris but "made it very clear that I don’t want Donald Trump to be the next president of the United States."
McCain and Romney were both willing to cross the aisle, and they were still called Hitler and accused of wanting to put blacks back in chains.

What do these people have in common? They're all losers. Why can't we go back to a Republican Party that loses all the time?

I had to scroll through some of his posts to make sure this wasn't a parody account.

It isn't.
Pathetic.
They miss the court jester Republicans that they could just bully into conformity.

They don’t like Republicans who fight them back.
They don't even make good Democrats, let alone Republicans.

As all of the Harris supporters pledged, "We're not going back." They claim they put country over party by voting for the Democrat, as if that's the key to reviving the loser GOP. Why do they want to go back to a Republican Party that continually capitulated to the Democrats and refused to fight for anything? What's the appeal? I don't get it.
