[Vanity] Who is leaving the Republican Party on November 9th?

Hildy

[Hildy]

I am. Win or lose.

[AzNASCARfan]

Independents can vote in the primaries now, just not the newly added presidential preference election... I was changing a year ago and didn’t for that reason and then did not want to mess something up and not be counted on the 8th, so stayed, but will change it on the 9th.

[Celerity]

I’ll always be a conservative, I will always fight for the Republic.

I didn’t leave the party. The Party left me. I’m still a Republican.

This new “pope” has done nothing but step all over my religion. But I’m not leaving the religion. No way, no how. Same with my political affiliations.

I’m not there because of the people, I’m there because of the conservative movement and the preservation of the Republic.

[Some Fat Guy in L.A.]

I despise them almost as much as the rat party. I will be sticking to 3rd party conservatives from now on, win or lose.

[crosdaddy]

John Kasich is a stalwart of the GOPe?

[cloudmountain]

You don’t Frick’n get it do you. The GOPe is one half of the Uniparty. One of the sides of the globalist coin that have been screwing us for decades. I AM a “republican”. Please make note of the lowercase “r”. Do you understand the difference?

And YOU sound like a "Frick'n" ignoramus. Learn some spelling and grammar rules, why don't you? It IS our very own language that you OUGHT to have learned by now.

AND, for heaven's sake get over yourself.

[AzNASCARfan]

Trumps right, we won’t get another chance at any outsider ever again in our lifetime, if Hillary wins.

[ExGeeEye]

Just when us deplorable teahadists are taking over??

Nuh-UH!!

[cloudmountain]

John Kasich is a stalwart of the GOPe?

I was GENERALIZING about being OUT of the Republican Party, nothing more.

[glasseye]

Already done.

[Hildy]

You know nothing about me, Byron.

[cloudmountain]

You’re missing the point.

You mean there is ONLY one point to be gotten from this?
Is no one allowed to read ANYTHING else into it?
Gee whiz, golly, whodda thunk?

I expected a Corleone to be smarter than that.

[buffaloguy]

Win or lose I will still be a Republican. Parties change over time and I expect to be part of the change.

Recent events have proved that the paper money system of this country may be used as an engine to undermine your free institutions; and that those who desire to engross all power in the hands of the few and to govern by corruption or force are aware of its power and prepared to employ it. Your banks now furnish your only circulating medium, and money is plenty or scarce according to the quantity of notes issued by them. While they have capitals not greatly disproportioned to each other, they are competitors in business, and no one of them can exercise dominion over the rest. And although, in the present state of the currency, these banks may and do operate injuriously upon the habits of business, the pecuniary concerns, and the moral tone of society, yet, from their number and dispersed situation, they cannot combine for the purpose of political influence; and whatever may be the dispositions of some of them their power of mischief must necessarily be confined to a narrow space and felt only in their immediate neighborhoods.

But when the charter of the Bank of the United States was obtained from Congress, it perfected the schemes of the paper system and gave its advocates the position they have struggled to obtain from the commencement of the federal government down to the present hour. The immense capital and peculiar privileges bestowed upon it enabled it to exercise despotic sway over the other banks in every part of the country. From its superior strength it could seriously injure, if not destroy, the business of any one of them which might incur its resentment; and it openly claimed for itself the power of regulating the currency throughout the United States. In other words, it asserted (and it undoubtedly possessed) the power to make money plenty or scarce, at its pleasure, at any time, and in any quarter of the Union, by controlling the issues of other banks and permitting an expansion or compelling a general contraction of the circulating medium according to its own will.

The other banking institutions were sensible of its strength, and they soon generally became its obedient instruments, ready at all times to execute its mandates; and with the banks necessarily went, also, that numerous class of persons in our commercial cities who depend altogether on bank credits for their solvency and means of business; and who are, therefore, obliged for their own safety to propitiate the favor of the money power by distinguished zeal and devotion in its service.

The result of the ill-advised legislation which established this great monopoly was to concentrate the whole money power of the Union, with its boundless means of corruption and its numerous dependents, under the direction and command of one acknowledged head; thus organizing this particular interest as one body and securing to it unity and concert of action throughout the United States and enabling it to bring forward, upon any occasion, its entire and undivided strength to support or defeat any measure of the government. In the hands of this formidable power, thus perfectly organized, was also placed unlimited dominion over the amount of the circulating medium, giving it the power to regulate the value of property and the fruits of labor in every quarter of the Union and to bestow prosperity or bring ruin upon any city or section of the country as might best comport with its own interest or policy.

We are not left to conjecture how the moneyed power, thus organized and with such a weapon in its hands, would be likely to use it. The distress and alarm which pervaded and agitated the whole country when the Bank of the United States waged war upon the people in order to compel them to submit to its demands cannot yet be forgotten. The ruthless and unsparing temper with which whole cities and communities were oppressed, individuals impoverished and ruined, and a scene of cheerful prosperity suddenly changed into one of gloom and despondency ought to be indelibly impressed on the memory of the people of the United States.

If such was its power in a time of peace, what would it not have been in a season of war with an enemy at your doors? No nation but the freemen of the United States could have come out victorious from such a contest; yet, if you had not conquered, the government would have passed from the hands of the many to the hands of the few; and this organized money power, from its secret conclave, would have directed the choice of your highest officers and compelled you to make peace or war as best suited their own wishes. The forms of your government might, for a time, have remained; but its living spirit would have departed from it.

The energy that is being burnt trying to convince family, friends and strangers of the dire situation our country is in, is too much. If Hillary is sworn in, it is time to take care of your friends, family and yourself, and serve God only. Satan will literally have his representative on the “throne” of this country. For those of you that think the President “serves” the country, you are wrong. We the people serve the government, not the other way around.

[zwerni]

I’m done with the GOP.

I will be voting for Donald Trump on 11/8 !!! I will NOT be voting for any other down ballot candidates. I will no longer support Republican candidates.

[RC one]

I won’t be suddenly voting for Mitt Romney or Jeb Bush in the next primary. This isn’t over. It’s just beginning.

[shanover]

I know it is cliche and said before, but it can not be said enough that the party left us. Mr. Trump says what I think in regards to his view on bringing America back. Furthermore, just the fact that a few Supreme Court seats will be filled may be the end of the republic if Clinton wins. I have no faith in the GOPers to stand against Hildabeast especially in cabinet and judges.

[silverleaf]

Yup!
Don’t need em

Andrew Jackson: Farewell Address

[Gay State Conservative]

I'll always know,as I always *have* known,that no candidate is perfect.Having learned from Ross Perot (in '92) and Ralph Nader (in 2000) that those who vote for anyone other than the top two candidates for an office...out of "principle" almost always ensure that the *greater* of two evils will win (Nader cost algore the election by getting more than enough votes in New Hampshire to give algore the 4 EVs which would have won it for him).

As unappealing as the prospect is I'll vote for the lesser of two evils.

And anyone who disagrees can save their "traitor"..."Rino"..."coward",etc. Rat Party nominees Michelle Obama and Chelsea Hubbell Clinton will applaud (quietly) as you vote for the Real Constitution No Transgender Bathrooms Party's nominee.
