16 million nearly equals the audience of ABC, NBC, and CBS.

The dead media....

Ron Paul does indeed take credit for starting the Tea Party Movement.

In fact it was Santalli who got the ball rolling with this
“rant” on CNBC

CNBC’s Rick Santelli’s Chicago Tea Party

There were about 50 or so tea parties around the country a week or so later, one in Sacramento put on by FreeRepublic.com

Which was the inspiration for the Tea Party Express.

The TPM really got legs after this Tea Party rally in Sacto.

Facebook is far more cutting edge than Drudge and FR.

“We don’t need you guys anymore”.....

PERFECT RESPONSE, ..... now change the channel

[Syncro]

Well as long they distance themselves from the Tea Party Patriot$ and Jenny Beth Martin they should thrive.

Rick Santelli on the floor of the Mercantile Exchange in Chicago is the father of the modern TEA Party.

I bought a hat similar to that one because of that picture.

How do I access President Trump’s ‘twitter account’?

TY I do not have a ‘twitter account’.

Yep, and the Rats are still using that playbook.

In my mind, part of the problem with the Tea Party is that there were a whole lot of people who jumped on the Tea Party bandwagon to make money. Hard to know who is the real Tea Party and who is a scammer.

We have been solicited by so many claiming to be Tea Party. Recently, we have been getting calls almost daily from “Tea Party”, but, thanks to caller ID, we do not answer.

I think that part of the problem arose when the real Tea Party people did not want the group to have any powerful leaders, so there was no central direction or control of who could call themselves “tea party”.

[Bigg Red]

Actually, Trump has released 2 videos on Youtube —and I surprised myself by signing up to the channel for updates.

[Bigg Red]

I have thought of joining Twitter because of Trump, but I am on FR just about every day, so I can always count on FReepers to report on Trump’s latest significant tweets.

[Bigg Red]

Thanks for that info.
