Is there a list somewhere of the members of this so-called Freedom caucus?

All they need to do is change their middle name from “Freedom” to “Totalitarian-Accepting”.

The time between fresh-faced, newly elected freedom lover and fully corrupted DC politician is getting shorter and shorter. No one going to DC ever comes out a better person. That is, if they ever come out.

they never put good candidates who love the country and adhere to the Constitution on the ballot

That is why it is simply unconscionable to support Trump for president when Cruz is in the running.

You want a good candidate who loves his country and our Constitution? We've got one, and if he can't get the nod we alone will shoulder the blame.

In the general election, Trump needs to make Congress a central issue of his campaign. These points should be hit home:

1) It’s gonna be a lot easier to accomplish what needs to be done if we have a Republican Congress.

2) BUT, Republican leadership in Congress MUST change. Trump needs to reach out to conservative congressmen. He should also publicly endorse a House Speaker, and Senate majority candidate

As President, he should insist that Congress pass a Congressional term limits amendment to be sent to the states. Bargain with them. i.e., If you want X, Y or Z, you MUST pass a term limits amendment first.

There’s no way that rule will change. If that’s even possible. Seems to me it would be a violation of parliamentary procedure to say a majority can’t remove a Speaker.

All he can hope for is a promise they’ll not to try to do it.
