Wouldn’t it be something, if Trump really did turn on his own kind, and with a Republican Congress, radically cut government spending? Imagine the tantrum that the unemployed bureaucrat zombies would throw.

but now all Trump has to do is point out that the Republican party is not standing for conservative principles and he’s free to tear it up and do whatever he wants.

Bill Clinton could hardly have parsed it more deftly.

When Slick Willie does it, it's "lying" but when combover boy does it, it's "great negotiating".......

“But now all Trump has to do is” surprise the government-employed and pensioned commies with deep cuts in spending, layoffs and pension haircuts. It would be easy to do with a Republican Congress. It’s really the only way that he can go. The plan to heavily tax assets may well have been a long term ruse to accomplish the deposition of the government/political/regulator class, because such taxation would not be successfully done. There are too many ways out of it.

Quickly finishing the default process with more debt would be the alternative, with government class folks rioting just the same. But that would stop much international commerce and tie the hands of any president.

“Is the GOP suddenly gonna change the rules so 75% of delegates are selected by them?”......

The rinos are about to take a page from the demodummies play book and change the rules to suit THEM. My guess Trump screwed himself out of the nomination by signing that “pledge”. I don’t trust the rinos one bit. How many have said they were going to fix problems in Washington only to get there and do NOTHING? Do you REALLY trust them? Not me.

I’ve noticed more of an intolerance for anyone who doesn’t hate Trump at least as much as the bashers do.

They smell like Democrats.
