Two months after a prominent conservative activist and fundraiser was caught hosting white supremacist Nick Fuentes, leaders of the Republican Party of Texas have voted against barring the party from associating with known Nazi sympathizers and Holocaust deniers.
In a 32-29 vote on Saturday, members of the Texas GOP’s executive committee stripped a pro-Israel resolution of a clause that would have included the ban. In a separate move that stunned some members, roughly half of the board also tried to prevent a record of their vote from being kept.
In rejecting the proposed ban, the executive committee’s majority delivered a serious blow to a faction of members that has called for the party to confront its ties to groups that have recently employed or associated with outspoken white supremacists and extremists.

To those members I say “Why are these people ALWAYS on your side? Why are they SO POWERFUL on your side? If this doesn’t make you SERIOUSLY question if you’re on the right side… just shut up and stop being “stunned.” OWN what the side you’re on is and knock it off with your “shock” and crocodile tears. What bullshit.”
Well, of course. They can’t exactly ban associating with themselves.
I bet they’d have no problem with a ban on associating with anti, BLM or the “extremist” LGBTQ “organization”
Can’t piss off their biggest campaign donators!
Ya know if the ones who didn’t vote for this just stopped running as republican and ran as independent we wouldn’t have this issue. Their party as already killed itself but it just hasn’t fully died yet.
