As the Grand Old Party emerged from the Whigs at a time of great national crisis; so we see an, as yet unnamed, political reordering of the American Body Politic going on at this moment of great national danger and upheaval. This has far less to do With Donald Trump, as a candidate and populous rage; than an electorate in great fear of losing control of their culture, their national foundations, and their lives; to enemies within, and barbarians without. Americans have rarely felt this unprotected. I do not misspeak. Even at the start of WW 11 (which I do remember) we were scared, but fiercely determined to win, even when the outcome was uncertain. The issue of slavery and the specter of civil war dissolved the Whig Party and another ,the Republican Party, formed. They produced the unlikely candidacy of an uncultivated, shrill voiced, rude joking lawyer named Lincoln. The Great Depression and WW 11 brought FDR and the ultimate disaster of Liberalism. Today, after 83 years of liberalizing our courts, our schools, an ever expanding Civil Service, and a decadent Popular Culture; we now have a Marxist Socialist President, who is "Fundamentally Changing America" The last 8 years have finally touched Americans,as only the threat of losing your Nation, your Culture, and your Civilization can. Yes; it appears the "chickens have come home to roost", as they have for the American electorate every 100 years or so. This fact has eluded our political pundits and campaign strategists. So, there is far more than political anger and pay back involved. It has become a profound reshaping of the political order that will nominate and elect Donald Trump President of the United States. As yet this new political order has no name, and is now unlikely to be co-opted by either Party. The Party that understands this first and joins this movement, will have the first opportunity to recognize and direct it.
War. War never changes.
Nicely done.

The dems are full blown marxists, that leaves them out. The repubs are spineless can’t we all get along, that leaves them out, fresh party, the third way, the Founders party, a return to freedom as called for in the constitution.
Bkmrk.
We currently have a Two Party System, the Communist Party and the Communist Sympathizer Party.
Once Trump is elected, there needs to be an effort to establish a new party with none of the old players in it.
The Republican leadership, the Republicans in the Senate and House have almost all failed us. It's time for a clean sweep. Otherwise, as soon as Trump leaves, they'll march right back toward the Left.
No way!
I would only quibble with one thing in your comments, which again were truly good food for thought.
Today, after 83 years of liberalizing our courts, our schools, an ever expanding Civil Service, and a decadent Popular Culture; we now have a Marxist Socialist President, who is "Fundamentally Changing America".
I think it is vitally important that we not lose site of the fact this foul good for nothing _resident be seen as the follower of Islam that he is.
That trumps Marxism and Socialism. It is what moves him. He could care less about the other two ideologies IMO.
The Whig party dissolved and the Republican party became the 2nd major party in the 1850s. Could we see history repeat itself? As I recall we have always had two major political parties, but have only had these two current ones since the 1850s.
Originally weren’t the two major parties the Federalists and the Democratic-Republican party?? Then the Federalists died out, the Whigs were established, and the Democratic-Republican party evolved into today’s Democrat party???
Given major voter dissatisfaction with both parties today, we could well see some realignments or a new party emerge.
Well played.
I see realignment too - but you have put some nice structure to your ideas.
IMO Trump saw it too ;)
Sadly, there’s no other conclusion to be had.
Amazingly the Communist Party chose to select a member of Islam, that couldn’t care less about anything but Islam.
Everything else takes a back street right now as the destroyer implements his plan, and the Democrats watch him destroy the nation they wanted to inhabit after Communism was entrenched.
Islam will be entrenched. And then Communism will be expunged.
The last time I heard “something is moving out there,” was in the 1990s when a panel of pundits -— it might have been Fred Barnes and Morton Kondracke -— said there was a current of anger that they didn’t quite understand. It turned out to be angry white males, and the result was the first Republican Congress in forty years.
And the media. They still think they are popular and relevant.
Mr. Debs is a legendary figure in the U.S. socialist movement. He led a railroad workers union strike, dubbed the Pullman Strike, and traveled the country during one election cycle campaigning on a train called "the Red Special."
Paragraphs are your friend.
WW 11? When was WW 10?
Your article is right on!!! You have pegged it exactly right and the way it really is. IMHO....I believe, that after DT is elected POTUS next year...both current political parties will disappear or change dramatically, moving to the right!!! Obama & Clinton have already destroyed the Democrat Party and so have McCain, Romney & Jeb Bush done the same to the Republican Party!!! Folks, like Debbie Wasserman Schultz & Karl Rove are has beens...and, will not be heard from again!!!
As for the Obamabot media...life will have to change for them..or, they will just disappear into the cesspool of permanent obscurity, forever!!! Too bad, non of the politicos or the media gets it!!!
I was with you right up to the end.
But, if all this is about is personality - electing Trump - then this isn’t about any “movement” at all. It’s just about fandom.
