someone set us up the bomb
all your base are belong to us
are you kidding me?
i had gop insider friends who told me about the corruption in the gop back in the 60’s.
one classics professor dear friend and mentor of mine as a favor did a couple of speeches for a gop friend of his. the speeches got standing ovations. then the elites of gop recruited him for office, when he espoused his conservative beliefs and wanted to say what he believed, he was shutdown immediately. he would have been a great congressman, but he couldn’t toe the party line. the gope has been corrupt for decades.
why do you think there were so many republicans (high info) with us independents in the tea party 10 years ago? hint, it wasn’t just obama.
There is no way another party will work.
The fight has to be within the GOP.
It might take some time (senators have 6 years for example) but if enough people wake up and have patience then these RINOs can be cleansed.
Trump can play a big role in this IF he wants to. He can raise money and campaign for candidates like no one else.
Not only did Trump defeat Jeb with his hundred million dollars and his elevator shoes, he absolutely crushed him!
Because birds of a feather stick together
”Thou shalt not speak ill of any fellow Republican.”
But they are not real Republicans, but only democrat-lite.
Less (ful)filling, and no taste.
The Republican base consists of patriots, deplorables, MAGA folks, US.
We have been infiltrated from every angle, from within and without.
Nothing can be fixed until 11/3 election is overturned and we are made whole again.
It is happening, it is coming.
NCSWIC.
There was a significant anti Goldwater movement within the party but it didn’t persist after the election. What is happening today is a continuation of the fear and loathing of politicians for Donald Trump and his followers. They don’t necessarily name him but that is what this is all about. Stomp out Trumpism with a vengeance.
Consider them enemy agents. They are pretend conservatives and their purpose is to help Soros and other evil globalists take down the USA.
I've never seen so many stories of "leading" figures in a Party trying to cr*p on their own base... Bush Cheney Romney Flake Hogan
Those are all has-beens, not "leading figures".
You have to re visit
Who is their base.
Deep state is real.
McCain, Sasse…. many others. I think many are trying to protect their own interests and/or their own histories.
When we voted for Bush I ... who then lost an easy re-election campaign.
When we accepted Dole ... who then lost.
When they fought Gingrich. Who won!
When we accepted what Bush II promised to be, and then accepted the betrayal when he pushed even more federal control - particularly over schooling, taxes, and caved to the Deep State EVEryWHERE but fighting Muslim terrorists and the Supreme Court. (And now we wonder if Bush II did so well in either of those two arenas now too.)
When we accepted Bush II’s lackluster second term, then allowed the slide into Obama's Recession with no complaint and no protest's.
When we accepted McCain's abject surrender to Obama. His betrayal of Palin to the Washington press corpse.
When we accepted Romney-Ryan’s coronation “against” Obama - when they agreed not to fight. not to campaign, not to win.
There are two types of Republicans going back to as long as I can remember:
The conservative wing: ex: Reagan
Country-club wing: ex: The Bushes
Ike was a good President but he was somewhere between the two categories.
“The thing they DON’T seem to get is that it’s not about Trump the man but the ideas and policies he put forward.”
It was Trump the man. One thing about Trump, HE WAS NEVER ASHAMED OF US. He would also fight for us and push back. Can you say that about Bush, Romney, Cheney, Ryan, etc?
I didn’t agree with Trump on spending or the Fed but I did agree with most of his other policies. Also, they are all wrong on spending and the Fed so there is really no options.
The one thing for sure is no matter how bad a bill or policy, Democrats are almost always in total lockstep. The Republicans, no matter the what the bill or policy there is always some prima donnas and or RINOs that have a hissy fit and kill the momentum.
there are too many people in the third world.
People that are starving and don’t know how to use soap don’t need to have 10 kids.
Republican party, who?
