Conservatives and Donald Trump Dance on Boehners Grave
thedailybeast.com ^ | SEPTEMBER 25, 2015

Posted on 09/25/2015 9:40:14 PM PDT by Helicondelta

Trump wouldn’t say who he wants to “go in” in place of Boehner, first telling me that he wouldn’t comment on the matter at all, and then telling The Daily Caller, “I think they have probably four or five good choices.” He didn’t say who those four or five good choices are.

But when I asked Trump if Boehner was sufficiently conservative, he said, “I don’t think so, personally.”

The GOP fatalities are pilling up: Perry, Walker, Boner. And many more to come.

Kind of reminds one of the antics we see out of the DemocRATS every time there is a shooting. ‘RATS dancing the jig in the blood of the victims.

Don't forget Cantor. He was pre-Trump, but his being primaried was big.

Dancing on a grave? That would be rude... accurate, but rude.

True. That was a big shock to the system. Too bad they ignored the message. Trump is riding the wave, he didn’t create it.

A little hyperbole, anyone? Boehner is not dead.

Now, Paul Wellstone? That was dancing on somebody's grave.

Has Trey actually DONE anything, given all his alleged intelligence and investigations?

I don’t think it is time to celebrate. I’m glad Boehner is going but I don’t think it is necessarily going to get us anything that we’d like such as a show down with Obama. Instead it looks like the House is using Boehner’s demise as an excuse to do exactly what Boehner wanted them to do which is simply authorize funding the government with no defunding Planned Parenthood or Obamacare or Obama’s executive amnesty which is still allowing illegals free reign. Also if we get Boehner’s second in command what exactly did we win? Now if we could get a Trey Gowdy(Says he doesn’t want it) or Dave Brat or Jeb Hensarling we will have won something of worth provided they actually turn back the silly GOP-E idea that we must “govern” which is the word they use for surrender these days.

The only thing missing from this moment of jubilation would be a group of women ululating, middle eastern style.

This is idiotic. Why spike the ball when you are on the ten yard line? The fact that Boehner is gone is great, but it’s not a victory for conservatives until someone worthwhile replaces him. Meanwhile, someone worse or equal could take over! All the conservatives who are celebrating are just allowing the other side to plot in secret and thereby aiding and abetting them. This kind of pre premature celebration has bit conservatives many times in the past. All those celebrating are dolts who can’t learn from the past.

“Another Trump effect.”

Indeed. Though, personally, I like to capitalize Trump Effect.

I stated in an earlier post that the Boehner resignation was more fallout from the Trump Effect as his unabashed rhetoric and neutering of the kommie media triggered a revolt amongst the great unwashed GOP masses and emboldened a few conservative Congress critters to grow a few pairs ...

The short answer is No.
But everytime I bring that up, others say his lack of wins is because of Boehners interference.
On another angle, I don’t know how wise it is to load long term political burdens on Trey Goudy.
In my opinion, Trey looks gaunt and has not looked healthy for quite some time. That could be his natural appearance.
