Trump is not responsible for Republicans taking over state houses, state legislatures and large numbers in the Senate and House. The complaints of a tiny minority don’t amount to anything serious.
He has yet to have a major impact on the party, that is yet to come.
Once the Democrat party is destroyed (and it is far from being destroyed) splitting the GOP is the height of folly until then.
People here have the bad habit of misidentifying people they disagree with as “Leftist”. There are few, if any, “Leftists” in the GOP much less the leadership.
McManiac is not a leftist, nor is Ryan nor McConnell.
Your correct observation about Ted shows that you actually agree that splitting the party would be insanity and suicidal.
The resentment toward the R Party leadership has resulted in calling them “Leftists”, for a reason.
If it’s true that “ You teach what you tolerate “, then they’ve earned it, over the course of the last eight years of Obama.
Remember Mississippi is a perfect example of their machine politics feathering the bed for the Left, by derailing conservative insurgents, in order to keep the UniParty/Establishment trains running on time.
Ryan and McCain cause very little problem to the Left, and are over their allotment causing trouble to the exploding conservative movement.
Both of them pal up with the Left, McCain with Hillary, Ryan with Guiterriz, never leading a single charge on the issues of interest to the conservative movement.
Then along comes Trump. They despise him. They are actively working against him, by not working for him, and it was McCain who took the Russian gossip against Trump to the FBI. Ryan disinvited Trump to a Wisconsin rally, feigning moral purity, but mostly fearing being crushed by a mad giant representing we the people.
The R Party is my enemy. After Trump their will be no replacement. I have no idea what America’s future will be beyond Trump. Pence? LOL.
