"Two Roads Diverge" is one man's vision of a Trump-less future for the GOP. Is it achievable? Author and former South Carolina Governor @MarkSanford joins @reenaninan on today's @therecount Daily Pod #RDP.

I hope my former Republican colleagues including Lindsey Graham, Ted Cruz, Mitch McConnell and other party members will give this a read and rediscover True North.
Which path we take will make all the difference.

Thank you of for taking a look at Two Roads Diverged.
It's true that the #Republican Party I knew as a young congressman was all but gone when I returned to #Congress. Maybe that's why it was so easy for Trump to highjack it?

As Oscar Hammerstein once said, “Liberals need conservatives to hold them back, and conservatives need liberals to pull them forward.”

I was asked on @NewDay about Nikki Haley whose flip flop on negotiating with the #Taliban in #Afghanistan is indicative of the partisan politics over nation that is tearing this country apart.

Good Morning.
Today I share my hope that the Republican Party will stop being about one man & instead return to its values: limited government, individual rights, fiscal responsibility & rule of law.
We are not two tribes we are one America.

It felt like old times. Pints and Politics had a live crowd. My former Governor and Congressman ,Mark Sanford, addressed the audience & discussed his new book. I'm looking forward to reading it. Thank you for posting the ticket link!

Democrats LOVE science but clearly don't have the same fondness for math.
How can you have a free society that's indentured by crippling debt?
At least current Republicans are consistent they don't seem to believe in science or math.

Exactly and why on top of that is Ted Cruz asking the federal government to step in to prevent states from taking care of their own.

Once upon a time the Republican party was the party of conservation and respect for the planet.
Crisis used to bring us together now we just dig in and watch it all burn.

Many seem to think a #MaskMandate is a way of government seizing control.
It's not about control it's about looking like you're in control.
The one thing a government official can't afford to do is nothing. Masks offer a sense of "look we're doing something!" #Delta #COVID

For America's 1st 150yrs government spending was less than 10% of our economy (less than 3% for most of that).
Now it's over 30%
Are we 10x or even 3x better of then we were back then?
Money is power & #Washington is drunk on it.

They're all vaccinated.
I wish Sen Graham a speedy recovery with as few symptoms as possible.

Lindsey Graham on being infected with covid: “I am very glad I was vaccinated because without vaccination I am certain I would not feel as well as I do now. My symptoms would be far worse.”

This is precisely why we need to move on from the drama of Trump and get to work rebuilding an actual, functioning conservative GOP. #tworoadsdiverged

I continue to believe in the Bible’s admonition of first taking the log from your own eye before you worry about the splinter in the eye of another.

The line on January 6th was the seat of American democracy — and the brave men and women of the and held that line while facing unbelievable violence and cruelty.
We need to know the truth of that day and must hold who did this accountable.

The #vaccine is something every American can take pride in. The Trump administration developed it & 's administration distributed it.
Our scientists & logistics are the envy of the world. We need to be #UnitedAgainstCovid a disease that doesn't care about politics.

America remains the shining city on a hill that Ronald Reagan spoke of.
However, we need two parties. We need Republicans to rediscover True North and shake loose the cult of Trump.
My new book Two Roads Diverged is a wakeup call for the GOP and America. Coming 8/24/21

By this logic people are not getting the vaccine because Trump didn't get enough credit. Dying for the man's ego even though he's gotten the shot.

Replying to @MarkSanford
And Biden does everything HE can to not credit Trump for the work of Operation Warp Speed. Two way street, pal.

I'll answer it for you.
Donald Trump cares about the credit not about you.
If he cared about you he wouldn't have taken the vaccine in private.
He cares only about himself. It's why he sent his fans to the Capitol but didn't join them as he said he would.

He also took the shot in private. What does that tell you? twitter.com/jrfunke/status…

We have a big problem right now with a simple solution and there is nothing political about it.
We should be celebrating the vaccine that the Trump administration with the scientific community delivered and the Biden administration distributed.
It's an American victory.

I love and admire Simone Biles and our Olympians. Beyond their determination and sacrifice, they evidence the greatness of the human spirit, in victory and in defeat. I take pride in them, not so much for the medals they win as for the grace, humanity & character of their hearts.

I have bone-deep ideological differences with Democrats but they are not my enemy
But, those who would attack the Capitol Police, who would violently breach the Capitol, those who would hunt Mike Pence
This is not a difference of opinion
#January6th was an attack on America

I want to be clear, we will investigate the security posture on January 6. But blaming the security for the violence on that day is like blaming an assault victim because of what she was wearing.
