the tea party won that process of attempted assimilation by the GOP establishment. you don’t have to look any further than the influence of the freedom caucus, or the fact that the vast majority of the GOP backed trump after he won the nomination.

stop throwing rocks at dead sh*t. the old thing that people like to call the GOPe is truly dead sh*t.

I’m sorry you have so little tolerance for the views of others. I’m not throwing anything at anybody. Just expressing my opinion like many other FReepers on this board do. It’s what makes the board interesting, stimulating and provacative.

Let’s look at the facts. Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan are still in power and they are truly establishment people. McConnell has been in the senate for OVER 30 YEARS. Ryan has been in the House for NEARLY 20 YEARS. Neither person has exactly welcomed the arrival of Donald J. Trump.

If you believe the GOPe is truly dead, then you ought to check out none other than Newt Gingrich’s comments on that very subject. He is still one of the most outspoken critics of the GOPe. So he obviously believes it exists.
