Politico says Ryan better off as minority leader than with weak majority. Also says he could resign rather than lead weak majority. Okay then, let’s give him a weak majority.
I appreciate what you’re saying. However, if he wins, the GOP and their like minded Democrat pals will resist Trump and work to undermine him in every possible way.
Trump is not in the DC club of cronies. They will all stick together to frustrate and defeat him. Bear in mind that Trump represents an EXISTENTIAL THREAT to their political club and their cozy little fiefdoms. Don’t doubt this for a second.
I’m certain the RATs will appreciate your efforts on their behalf.
Vote Trump 2016
“However, if he wins, the GOP and their like minded Democrat pals will resist Trump and work to undermine him in every possible way.”
So we should all just commit suicide & die now then, right? Since no weapon formed against Trump has stopped him I am going to continue to believe Trump can deal with the GOP traitors in a way that removes them forever from power. But if we allow RATs to win the Congress we are slitting our own throats in despair & hubris. Just another form of suicide.
Vote Trump 2016
Voting for Trump, GREAT idea. I like it. Only voting for Trump and skipping the rest of the ticket? Foolish.
Here in Nevada Joe Heck was beating his senate opponed Masto by a few points then he dissed Trump recinding his endorsement. Now Heck is down 5%, due to angry Trump supporter.
Heck is tied to the Koch people, for open boards and all the other Ryan policies of appeasing Obama.
I won’t vote for him because his is a Rino, but if he was a decent Trump supporting conservative, then I will of course vote for any REAL republican.
I always look to Cantorize Rino. Lets be picky and just pick on Rinos. We have a 240 majority house, we can lose some Rinos and still control the house and teach them a lesson.
A Ryan Rino free House is what we want. Americans are sick of Ryan lets vote his Rino Cadre out.
She told me she is getting a lot of calls about this and she will relay my message.

I know people who worked for the RNC. Trust me, they don’t care in the least about you or what you think. They just want your money.
Where do you draw the line? If I was in AZ I would not vote for McCain. My senate race is Heck/Masto. Heck crapped on Trump last week so no vote for him.
The fool republican leadership has brought this backlash upon themselves thinking they can do, without as they call us, trumpers. They better pray that Trump wins. Otherwise, they’re dead in 2018 and beyond.
Between people like myself that are lifelong Republicans who will no longer give a rip, along with the millions of imported Dems headed here, the GOP will be over as anything other than a minor opposition party.
The plea to elect “us” to thwart Hillary in 2018 will fall on deaf ears. It’s no longer business as usual.
I say the same about Heck
I made this up #HeckNo hash tag.
Hardy is another one I won’t vote for.
In Nevada I can’t believe these guys can support the legal Prostitution, strip clubs, porno shops, but have a problem with supporting a rather conservative Trump. What Hillary is going to be better at anything?
The problem is, the more you vote for them, the more invulnerable they feel and therefore the less reason they have to be responsive to us. If you keep giving in to me, why should I change my ways?
The GOP congress has done virtually nothing to stop Obama. Ryan has given him every dime he wanted. And all those committee hearings? Nothing but grandstanding and political theater. The last time I checked government has much gotten bigger, the national debt has ballooned to an unsustainable $20 trillion, and our personal liberties have shrunk by an alarming degree. The point is, little has changed with a GOP controlled congress.
When things fail again and again, I don’t keep doing the same thing. I do something else.
Send the GOP a message. They will only start paying attention when they have to. The best thing we can do is elect Trump in an overwhelming landslide victory that intimidates every politician on Capitol Hill.
Really bad idea if there are conservative down-ballot nominees. Do your homework.
The plea to elect “us” to thwart Hillary in 2018 will fall on deaf ears. It’s no longer business as usual.

The GOP has lied to us and violated our trust. Like all reasonable creatures, we have decided to stop doing what harms us. Its no longer business as usual.
One but he is pretty safe.
Ryan and Romney are on C-span 2 now. Freaks. (Don’t go there.)
Give Trump his majorities and let him use the Bully Pulpit to call out those who continue to aid and abet the Dems.
Work on getting their opponents who seem more conservative on the tickets down the road.
McCain will not get my vote - but he’ll win, anyway. Other Republicans will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
I’m in the Birmingham suburbs and both my Senator (Shelby) and Congressman (Palmer) are voting for Trump. I would not vote for them otherwise. I am from SC originally and would vote for a lefty Democrat over Grahamnesty.
“As Ann Coulter said, there are a lot of bad Republicans, there are no good Democrats.”
Very true, but unless we develop and follow a “thinning of the herd” protocol by selectively getting rid of RINOs, while making sure for the near-term that the GOP maintains it’s majorities, we will gravitate back to the “old ways” that the GOPe is working to reinstate. As an example, voting for Ryan’s RAT opponent is a good bet. The loss of one House seat to get rid of that worthless pr!ck is a bet I’d take if I lived in his district. It’s just too bad McConnell survived, because now he’s untouchable for another four years. We’ve simply got to get beyond the premise that “my congressman/Senator” is a “good guy,” it’s the “other guy’s” reps that are the problem. Beyond that, each and every one of them needs to go after no more than a couple of terms.
Sorry. No. Bad idea.
