Populism is the result of the Establishment failing their constituents.

He’s calling Trump a Democrat without calling Trump a Democrat.

Rush Limbaugh could perform an immense service to the American Republic by simply calling Donald Trump what he is.

A Democrat.

Populism and Nationalism could have saved America decades ago, the GOP didn’t want it.

There is nothing conservative about campaigning for Barack Obama & Goldman Sachs’ TPA. Yet the Lion of Conservatism did just that.

What we have here is name it whatever you want movement taking over the corportism of the GOPe.

Look how fast the Freedom Caucus rolled over. Conservatism has been dead a long time in the GOPe and we’re just realizing it now.

Simple...Trump is conveying conservative ideas in a way that’s appealing.

There certainly are times when Nationalism needs to “Trump” Conservatism, that’s where the Uniparty has left us.

There was a time when scumbags who opposed United States of America nationalism were excoriated and mocked by everyone who posted on conservative forums.

Today, not so much.

One does not align themselves with Trump and remain a conservative... The DUmocrats have drifted so far left that the “center” doesn’t exist where it once did.

The Uniparty that filled the void now exist in opposition to we “extremist” conservatives who have remained where we always have.

Rush is right: Trump is an AMERICA FIRST patriot, and his supporters are AMERICA FIRST Nationalists.

Conservative ideals play heavy in nationalism, and many of Trump’s supporters are true Conservatives, but because Trump flies under the banner of NATIONALISM he has a much larger tent than Cruz, and the polls show it.

Rush nails it. We have voted for so called conservatives time after time. We win Congress only to get higher debt and ignored! The win bought us nothing but betrayal.

Let’s face it - anyone who supports Trump hates America and Jesus.

Well, it’s more like the self identified conservatives have alienated their voters, so they are looking for someone or something else. It’s perfectly rational.

Trump is a populist/pragmatist.....a dangerous combination.

They're not liberals

No...they're "progressives"! Call it what you want El Rushbo, they're either for constitutional government or their against it. By not standing Obama down, even empowering him, they are all "liberals" (or whatever term the commies have co-opted) to me!

Maybe a useful title would be "Trumpismo", or "Peronism, American Style". A little bit from the Right, a little from the Left, with a healthy dose of Personality Cult thrown in to tie it all together. Populism, like a riot, is an ugly thing.

Basically, Trump is a liberal who is lying.

Rush is too polite to say it.

YES we the American voters ARE angry....we are angry because we have sent our House and Senator people to do OUR work in 2012 an 2014 and they haven’t done a DARN thing but fill their pockets with OUR money....

YES we the American voters ARE angry...we are angry because all the jobs are going to other countries, while here in America, illegal immigrants are taking OUR jobs from us; they are treated better than our VETERANS and WOUNDED WARRIORS who have given their lives, and body parts to defend the very FREEDOMS that MAKE AMERICA GREAT!!!

ANGRY, you have NO idea just how ANGRY we are, and guess what, we are supporting someone who is going to DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!!! DEAL WITH IT!!!

“Nationalism And Populism Have Overtaken Conservatism” In GOP

possibly. But what good has so-called “conservatism” done us? Nearly every tea party candidate/so-called “conservative” Senator and House Rep immediately sold us out withing weeks of taking office.

Levin and Limbaugh dare to break the 1st Commandment: Thou shalt not have any other God but Donald Trump. If you listen to both daily you know they aren’t Trump “haters”.
