Nebraska GOP tells Republican lawmaker to register as Democrat
The Hill ^ | 08/05/2019 | Justin Wise

Posted on 08/06/2019 7:26:26 AM PDT by stan_sipple

The Nebraska Republican Party on Monday called for GOP state Sen. John McCollister to re-register as a Democrat after he accused the party of enabling white supremacy in the United States. ... McCollister gained national attention on Sunday after sharing a series of tweets condemning the Republican Party for what he described as its complicity in "obvious racist and immoral activity inside our party."

"The Republican Party is enabling white supremacy in our country," McCollister said on Twitter. "As a lifelong Republican, it pains me to say this, but it’s the truth."

If only Trump had focused on the environmental wacko aspect of the “manifesto,” instead of just race.

Gets him a guest op-ed in a swamp journal and 30 pieces of silver, good for him.

I’m sure they got a ton of grief from their donors. I think they were too nice to him. They should have told him to register as an Asshole.

I’d like this guy to go to all the major cities in Nebraska, the ones that have some type of “tech” center, go to all the college campuses and the towns they occupy, find any and all liberal enclaves in the state. Then have him document how “white” those places are. Then have him document what political party those people identify with or are registered with. He’ll see white supremacy, right there, right in his face. And you know what, he can do the same in every little liberal enclave all over the country and he’ll see the same thing. Burlington, Vt...Asheville, NC....all around Atlanta-Virginia Highlands-Morningside-TocoHill-Emory-City of Decatur, Austin, Brooklyn, Jersey City-Hoboken-Harlem, Billings, Bozeman, Boise, etc etc etc.

Proof of that...when the President of the US stated that he was going to send all those in the detention centers, to sanctuary states and cities and the respective leaders went nuts. Saying he was trying to punish them.

It would have been even better if accompanied by a statement that we, like GOP member Martin Luther King, Jr., judge people by the content of their character and not the color of their skin. We are not the party for race baiters and agitators.

Finally, leaders of the Republican Party are starting to show some guts. After decades of letting Cultural Marxist-influenced globalists and neo-cons who were practically Democrats run the show, Trump has started the house cleaning the party desperately needed. He has shown Republicans what they need to do to be strong and to actually represent their constitutents and American nation. We don’t need race-baiting, slanderous leftists in the Republican Party. Thankfully many of the “enemy within” are being shown the door.

Trump foolishly included “white supremacists” in his speech, ruining the entire effort, but this McAlister guy is simply a jackass, in search of positive headlines and A-list parties..

Great point. I am still waiting for all those liberal Professors and Heads of University and Colleges that are white to give up their job and salary immediately and give it to a minority non-white person. Yeah put your job and career up and walk out your truth that you believe and teach about white privilege.

Ha, ha! I love it. Yes, that’s the perfect description. White nationalism my rear. What group commits the most violent crime in this country? Hint - not white guys.

According to Colin Flaherty, between July 16 and July 28, 2019, there were 36 mass shootings across the United States. Blacks were suspects in 34 of them.

Yep I cringed when he said it. He used their weapon of speech and gave them cover. His speech writer should be fired for that screw up on Toledo.

Toledo by the way is having a massive Jeep convention and parade this week-end. People come from all over US to Toledo with their Jeeps. Toledo is worried about an attack and even moreso, since President mentioned it. Waiting for some wacko to target Toledo now and then say President gave the whistle to shoot people in Toledo.

Slowly the GOP is learning to fight back.
The surrender monkeys are being targeted and removed from the seats of power.

Just sent him a few thoughts. He needs to clarify that he speaks ONLY for himself.
