I want to talk about the "Trump Revolution" because I don't think there's been proper recognition of the substance and significance of what this president is doing
.It's completely different from what we've seen before. It doesn't fit into the establishment's traditional ideological boxes and that's why they waste our time with pointless political games like impeachment.
We saw the new approach clearly with Iran. The Democrats, never-Trumpers and their media lackeys lurched wildly from calling Trump weak to branding him a warmonger.
\So they can write whatever pompous, self-righteous nonsense they want in The New York Times. The establishment Republican Party is not coming back. It is dead, killed by their policy failure and Donald Trump's policy success.
There is no constituency for their ideas, except a handful of opportunists who traded their principles for a contract with the Democrats' cable news networks, where they poop off about the president's tweets while ignoring his policies. Here's the level of their analysis.
Nicolle Wallace, MSNBC host: I truly believe he is the hamburger-eating, Zamboni-riding loon that we see on TV and on Twitter.
They're like pampered aristocrats in pre-revolutionary France in powdered wigs and fake beauty spots as they witter to each other, "My dear, Trump is so vulgar!"
Well, maybe he is. But if you're someone who has finally got a job after years on the scrap heap, you'll take that over elegant failure.

You would be foolish to believe that. They are Dem-lites. They have crawled back into the recesses, but are still amongst us, waiting.
No, it’s not. “Trump won’t change the GOP. We’ll change him” Sen Mitch McConnell

Is Romney still a Senator? Then it’s not dead.
We will no longer sit by and allow Globalist stooges to be sold to us as ‘Conservative’ by a corrupt and thoroughly discredited “Conservative Media”. They have shown themselves to be nothing more then shills of the GOP-e.
The Bull Moose Party rides again! Google it.
Methinks that God Emperor Trump's actions against Iran will have the same effect.
They'll just change uniforms and become Rats.
The tectonic plates have shifted politically. It has happened in the U.K. too and is happening in other places as well eg. Brazil, Australia, Italy, Eastern Europe, etc. the traditional Left-Right coalitions have fractured and new coalitions are forming.
There is little difference between elitist, globalist country club Republican Establishment types and Democrats. Meanwhile, the last remnants of the White working class who still viewed the Democrats as being the working man’s party (the Midwest....Democrats lost these people in the South a generation or more ago) have come to realize that those in charge of the Democrat party today hate their guts and are seeking to destroy them at every turn.
Look at how Labour has lost the north of England for exactly the same reasons. Look at how Boris had to purge the Tory Remoaners just as Trump had to launch a hostile takeover of the Republican Party.
What the media and most Democrats really can’t stand about Trump is that he hits back.

Wallace is a disgusting jackass. And she’s a Comcast employee.
Let us pray. The GOPe needs to be tossed onto the scrap-heap of history. For the sake of our Republic.
Good point. The GOP establishment is far from dead. It may be lowering its profile a little bit during the Trump era but they still control the GOP.
That is exactly right. The establishment controls the money and the culture of the GOP. Make no mistake, they still own the party.
That’s what I’m thinking. No one in that town gives up power easily. They’re waiting for their comeback.
There is nothing stopping the Republicans from taking down some Democrats, just to level the playing field somewhat...
...except that the Republicans historically don't really want the accountability of being in charge.
President Trump is showing them what happens to the bold Republican, both the good and the bad. The good is what happens when real conservative policies get implemented and the people respond; the bad is the bigger target on their backs as desperate Democrats try to roll back the gains as they try to claw back power.

There’s a well known saying in Washington: “We were here when you (the president) arrived and we’ll be here after you’re gone. The Swamp creatures know when to lie low and come out when the threat has passed.
DC = District of Corruption
Whoa! GOP does not have 51 votes to dismiss?
Insights welcome.
Remember in November!
MAGA! Now KAGA! (Keep America Great Always!)
