Remember when all those Tea Party candidates made all those promises and we voted for them?

Well the joke was on us. :)

Now go pay your taxes, someone has too. LOL! :)

I have a historical analogy. The politics are completely different, but I think it’s meaningful.

In 1905, Russia had a revolution. There was a guy named Lenin involved, but the revolution didn’t succeed. Kind of like the Tea Party.

But about a decade later, there was a second attempt. In 1917 the Bolshevik revolution changed everything in Russia and put Lenin in power.

I consider Trump a good Conservative. He is not a Bolshevik or a Liberal. But he is the second coming of the Tea Party.

And I think he will change everything. I’m hoping.

This article should be read by everybody who ever went to a Tea Party event or otherwise aligned with what was the Tea Party Movement.

The author explains how that movement was exploited by con men.
