"Piss off enough Conservatives, and they’ll stay home in November."

Really? Be serious. Who do conservatives have to vote for?
A Republican candidate? You've seen how they behave
once they get elected. There are very few real "conservatives" in
the US Congress.

The conservative voters won't stay home. Even with the GOPe
in Congress Trump can still get some things done.
What's needed is a real conservative party.
Let the GOPe show their Democrat Party hides and join with them.
A third party is needed to oust the corrupt Republicans from power.

I am serious. And don't call me Shirley.

I'm not talking about the well-motivated FReeper, who will still go out and hold their nose to vote, I'm talking about the heartland conservatives. I said they'll stay home, and I'll stick to that. Why did Trump win? Because he motivated people to go out and vote for him, when they normally stay home. That's why the pollsters were so wrong.

Come November, they won't be motivated to get out to the polls at all, they'll stay home and not vote. Meanwhile the Democrats are motivated out the Ying Yang to vote AGAINST Trump, which is why historically the party in power loses seats in the off year election.

I blame Trump for not vetoing this bill, and avoiding the heat he would take for the subsequent government shutdown, but I really blame the GOP leadership in both the House and the Senate for giving away the store, in secret, to the Democrats, then springing this on the rank and file with 12 hours to read it.

It stinks to high heaven, and it's got GOP fingerprints all over it. It didn't raise Trump in Democrat's eyes, but it sure lowered Trump in my eyes.
