WAPO: Trump's Stephen K. Bannon Hire "A Middle Finger To The GOP Establishment"
Breitbart.come ^ | August 17, 2016 | Breitbart News

Posted on 08/17/2016 1:53:07 PM PDT by Biggirl

Donald Trump has assured us many times in recent days that he isn’t going to change his approach to the 2016 election. “I don’t want to change,” he told WKBT-TV in Wisconsin on Tuesday. “Everyone talks about, ‘Oh, well you’re going to pivot.’ I don’t want to pivot.”

The GOPe has consistently been stabbing Trump in the back. IMHO they deserve the middle finger salute.

I actually do think Trump was going to “pivot” to the establishment and hired Manafort for that reason, but then he realizes that the establishment (led by Bush/Romney/Ryan et al) still wants Hillary to win rather than him. It doesn’t matter that he announced excellent Supreme Court picks, or Pence as his VP. Trump has had enough of them. Hence new people.

Kind of a nothing burger article. Lotsa filler, nothing juicy. Fine to post though...

I'd prefer it'd be TWO middlefingers and middle-toes.

And isn't it sweet how protective the WaPo is over the feelings of its Establishment GOP allies?

The GOP Establishment(Cute term for LIBERAL) has been screwing over the American people for YEARS..they talk about how they are against the Democrat policies yet every single time they go right along with them and “Cross that aisle” so the hell with the GOP liberal crowd I would do worse than give a middle finger to them

The Washington comPost, along with the rest of the MSM, is our ENEMY! They have the mission to elect Hillary and they will do anything and everything to accomplish the same. This is throwing gasoline on the fire, anything to increase the FUD about Trump, they will do!

The only group more deserving of a middle finger than the GOPe is the Democrat establishment.

I understand that is debatable, but it is the Democrat establishment which has been running the country for the last decade.

And, yeah, that includes 2007-2009 when President Bush rolled over for Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi in congress as well as 2011-date when congress has rolled over for ObaMao.

How did the ‘pivot’ work for Mclame and Mittens?

Of course these two scumbags were liberals all along who attempted to hoodwink Republicans.

And Jeh Johnson said that being Muslim made him worry a lot less about keeping the homeland safe, seeing how he is the Director of DHS.

They were pivoting the wrong way towards conservatism and neither could pull it off. They were like Dracula seeing a Cross when they attempted to act, talk or promote conservatism, they couldn’t do it.

Rove is the one that baffles me.

He gets every prediction wrong. He hasn’t a clue what the rank and file want. He wouldn’t know a Conservative if he met one, and I’m not convinced he ever has.

This last year he trashed Trump non-stop, predicted a melt-down almost daily for a different reason, and fell flat on his face.

None the less, he’s still the one the media puts their faith in.

Enough of this prick already! Cancel his assignment, stop the paychecks, let hims work for a living doing what actual Conservatives do. They work hard and earn their living.

That certainly is the right finger for them.
