RINOS: THE ‘DARK SIDE’ OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY…
abackwoodsconservative.wordpress.com ^ | 5/30/21

Posted on 05/31/2021 6:19:13 AM PDT by cotton1706

We have today, a group of individuals who continue to masquerade as something that they most definitely are not and, in all likelihood, really never have been. They are men and women, past and present, who have continued to cast themselves as being ardent defenders of our Constitution, as written, and have vowed to fight for all the freedoms it guarantees to the American people, if we agreed to vote for them. But the sad reality is that these very people are nothing but sinister infiltrators working for the other side. Their mission is to get themselves elected so they can then assist in creating a façade of bipartisanship regarding the ongoing effort to destroy America.

And we were witness to that yet again, just this past Friday, when during another broadcast of CNN’s “At This Hour” we heard ex-senator Jeff Flake (RINO) urge the Republicans to “shun” the “conspiratorial fringe element of the party” if they want to have any hope of winning elections moving forward. Flake, who has long been vocal about his disdain for former President Trump, emphasized that Republicans should break from Trump, and his supporters like Reps. Matt Gaetz and Marjorie Taylor Greene, and instead turn to someone like former House Speaker Paul Ryan. Speaking only for myself, Ryan nowhere near represents the best of the Republican Party.

Why they are even allowed in the party is beyond me. You don’t see this problem with Democrats. Take someone like Mutt Romney; Have you ever ever seen a democrat call a press conference to bash his parties nominee for President? Well that’s just what Romney did in 2016 if you’ll remember. I have never seen that in my life, just unbelievable.

the Republican party is the same as it ever was. The difference with Trump was he actually tried to do what he said he would do and why people voted for him. Where before, nearly all Republican politicians would LIE about what they would do (because they knew what the Republicans voting for them ALWAYS wanted), but once getting elected “ran toward the middle” AWAY from the the beliefs of those who elected them and AWAY from what they SAID they would do if elected.

Notice that the Republican voter NEVER changed, it’s the same now as before Trump! Trump simply listened and ran on what they wanted and then attempted to do it when elected!

I nominate Governor Little of Idaho who recently re-mandated masks after the Lt. Gov. overturned the mask mandate while the governor was traveling:

Governor Little reversed the decision and said that although he never issued a statewide mask mandate, he did not believe in taking power away from local officials to put out health guidelines that they see fit.

“For the record, though, I have opposed a statewide mask mandate all along because I don’t think top-down mandates change behavior the way personal choice does,” Little said.

Which is it governor?

This sounds like something Gov. Newsom of California would say.

Why? Because the republicans case themselves as The Big Tent. They’ll have anyone it seems and the left has taken them up in it.

The left overwhelmingly reelects Democrat administrations, Governors, Mayors and Attorney Generals that ruin states and large cities. It’s pathological.

Republican voters overwhelmingly reelect RINOs and “moderates” who vote against everything the voters wanted to accomplish. It’s pathological.

It’s been years now, but I have not seen a difference between ‘Republicans’ and Democrats.

It’s the main problem with Conservatism right now... we must see ourselves (and BE seen) as unrelated to EITHER of those groups and any of those individuals.

You have inadvertently hit the nail on the head..
Its not the republiCAN’Ts that are the problem..
It is the people who elect them, the “Team Player” republicans, who believe that their team must win at all costs..
That is how we get mcromney, collins, flake, etc.

The pattern needs to be broken, or we will get more of the same..

Yes and he did so after begging The Donald for his endorsement while running for the senate.
What an ass.

The uniparty is all built on the 17th Amendment. JP Morgan demanded it, Ted Roosevelt and Wilson got it done.

The 17th Amendment removed the check and balance on the Senate... and eventually the Judiciary.

Repealing the 17th Amendment is a crucial and necessary step in restoration of our Republic.

Time for a Constitutional Convention.

Marcus Tullius Cicero, 2,000 years ago:

“A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.”

Sometimes, I wished President Trump WAS a Fascist. I could see Mitt Romney, Jeff Flake, Paul Ryan, etc. all taking one-way helicopter rides.
