Oh, the GOPe understands. They just don’t care.


This is what really hacks me off about cruz supporters. They know they

are being used as tools of the establishment and they just don’t care.

BETTER TO LOSE WITH CRUZ.

“Real” Conservatives and RINOs are both getting schooled by “the Donald” on nationalism, patriotism and populism. Those used to be the cornerstones of conservatism until the “movement” was hijacked by the NWO globalist cable.

Exactly right. REAL conservatives support a strong America that looks out for its own people first.

These folks pushing amnesty, "path to citizenship," "free" trade, globalism, and internationalism are not real conservatives. They're a bastard-child mix of libertarians and formerly Marxist neo-"conservatives."

The GOPe has been warring against its base, with increasing savagery, for at least the last twelve years now.

The only difference is that this time -- their two weapons of choice for this electoral cycle having failed so spectacularly (Yeb! first, then Li'l Marco) -- they're using an ostensible and easily bamboozled "outsider" in so doing.

Tom Delay's warm words of support and defense of serial child molester Denny Hastert... compared to his unending harsh rhetoric levied against Donald Trump... tell us all we need to know about the establishment.

They are the privileged. They are above all of us. And they are certainly above anyone who would dare to rile us up.

what the GOPe (and the Dems) fear the most is The Donald rolling in an army of Inspector General auditors bearing fine-toothed combs to be unleashed on a multitude of alphabet agencies

Trump Train coming thru!

Hey, it works; after about two or three times they just decide you are either an assh#le or crazy (in the opinion of the gope).
They have to pay the return postage and I think they finally take the hint.

What the heck has Salon been smoking lately? They’ve essentially been attacking Hillary for weeks, and now they run a thoughtful piece regarding issues affecting the GOP.

i hope you’re right, FRiend, but i don’t have any illusions about trump. he’s really been all over the map in the past, politically. recently he’s been right on guns, trade, taxes, visas, jobs, the economy and, most crucially, on amnesty. he’s now talking a good game; taken good positions; but will he execute? has he really been converted? we’ll find out only after he’s elected.

but no doubt he’s certainly schooling the corrupt uniparty. and for that, we all owe him gratitude. especially us indies. i will hazard a guess that if trump continues to follow the script that jeff sessions has laid out for him and other conservative candidates, he will win the presidency over clinton. he will put together the old Reagan coalition and draw to it the troubled but thoughtful young folks of all political stripes, who have no hope in the current system.

Tucker is wasting his time with Red State, they have been too far gone for way too long for anyone to go back. I was never a big reader of theirs anyway.

Just like that stupid Against Trump issue that National Review put out. Done with them, no looking back.

The Trump campaign has certainly cleansed me of a lot of old habits, I have to say.

Be sure to put all the shit they send in that envelope back in the postage paid envelope and then give them your message.

I did that one time with AARP, the envelope was bulging with their crap I sent back to them and wrote, I hate you, don't send me anything ever. Never heard from them again.

Absolutely. I ensure the postage-paid envelope has plenty of "heft" for the return journey to the GOPe weasels.

Thanks drewh.
Fox News contributor Tucker Carlson... singled out RedState for attacking Trump's voters as "diseased" and "probably on Oxycontin" or "secretly liberal," ... "He is on track to receive more votes than any Republican nominee ever," Carlson began. "He's already surpassed Mitt Romney's number in 2012... it does mean that he is the choice of Republican voters and give them the finger at your peril." ...said that the party must "pay attention to the people" and not to the opinions of "donors and think-tank intellectuals. The core of his campaign is his economic message -- 'I'm gonna bring jobs back' -- and it's baffling to me why the Republican establishment in Washington doesn't understand that," he said.
That's typical of RedState, which is so obviously a false flag op from top to bottom.

Every time a GOP solicitation comes in my email or my mail, I respond with, “When you start supporting Trump, I’ll financially support you”.
