You know the GOP is in trouble when the Wall Street Journal editorial board skewers the party's "strategy"
on the Homeland Security funding bill. And that it did on Monday,
calling the House leadership "weak" and referring to the tea party wing
as a “rump minority” that is “playing into Democratic hands.”
The editorial could basically be reduced down to this: Why the heck
are congressional Republicans letting a bunch of sniveling idiots run
the party into the ground?
While the board sympathized with Republicans who feel President Obama
overstepped his executive authority last year when he granted
deportation relief to up to five million undocumented immigrants, it
also said "immigration restrictionists" had themselves overreached in
trying to roll back the president's 2012 program for Dreamers.
Here's some highlights, of which there are many:
Restrictionists like Sens. Ted Cruz and Jeff Sessions are
offering their familiar advice to fight harder and hold firm against
“executive amnesty,” but as usual their strategy for victory is nowhere
to be found. So Republicans are now heading toward the same cul de sac
that they did on the ObamaCare government shutdown…
