Just look at the GOP in CA. They did reach out to everyone - illegals, black underclass, and gays. What has it gotten them. Permanent minority status. They’re not even token opposition. The CA GOP simply moderated itself out of existence.


Exactly. They’re just “Me too Democrats”. If one likes Democrat policies, why vote for them instead of the “real thing”? And if one doesn’t approve of the Democrats, why vote for the Lite version?

Of course, only white people want to be safe and have a job.

Where are the BS and BARF Alerts?


You need a barf alert when it’s New York Times?

The name is a synonym for barf.

Headline should have read: Donald Trump forces the New York Times into apoplexy and hysteria.

Exactly...best response so far.

Folks need to wake up and observe the times.

The events in the world show that others truly believe they only have 6 months (with Obama) to get their deeds done.

It is make hay while the sun shines, for the one to follow (DJT) will not be one to mess with.

Just look at what is happening to US assets in Turkey. I cringe!

A lof Republicans believe GOP needs to go Left to win.

Trump demolished the thesis.

If you don’t stand for something, you stand for nothing.

Voters see little reason to vote for a party that doesn’t care about them and their values.

Ryan and Flake think that’s exactly what the GOP must do to survive.

Lo and behold - the NYT agrees with them.

The hordes are pounding on the gates and the sentinel is scared and sounding the alarm.

But I believeth it is too dang late for the scum inside the Beltway. There is time for the handful of good ones to come out.

Interesting. The reality is that the gop under Trump is actually reaching out to that most maligned and ignored group in a America: the working and middle classes.

The Silver Slut and it’s allies in politics are so immersed in identity politics and invested in the static definitions of groups that they’ve missed (or are choosing to ignore) the rise of the working class as a distinct group that crosses their oh so precious race and sex lines.

Why are Whites not allowed to vote their interests? Will they be allowed to when they are a minority? That day is coming soon. Something tells me that they still won’t be allowed to.

Spot on and California is the poster child of the results of such idiotic logic all in the name of it makes me FEEL better to have guilt.
