I'm switching parties today from GOP to Independent. IF and when President Trump starts a new party for us, (I am recommending that it's the American or Freedom Party), I will join in a heart beat.
These dumb @ss leaders, Romney, McConnell, Graham etc. think they can negotiate with the democrats, and they think Biden will contain China and the rest of our enemies.
These are the worst of times.
I pray for the safety of our president. Like Christ 2000 years ago, he's been forsaken by those closest to him.
I respectfully disagree because the GOP will never support a primary challenge to one of their sitting RINOS. We already tried that numerous times with little success.
The GOPe is not on your side and does not share power. The only way to beat them is to go around them like we did with Trump. They did not like that and worked with the dems to remove him.
Let them keep the Jeb/Gram party and the 10% of the population that supports them.
Military training issues aside, federal domestic policy needs to once again be limited to delivering the mail as the delegates to the Constitutional Convention had decided.
"Article I, Section 8, Clause 7: To establish Post Offices and post Roads;"
"10th Amendment: The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."
"Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States."Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
”[...] the care of the property, the liberty, and the life of the citizen, under the solemn sanction of an oath imposed by your Federal Constitution, is in the States, and not in the Federal Government [emphases added].” —Rep. John Bingham, Congressional Globe, 1866. (See about middle of 3rd column.)
"It is one of the happy incidents of the federal system that a single courageous State may, if its citizens choose [emphasis added], serve as a laboratory; and try novel social and economic experiments without risk to the rest of the country.” —Justice Brandeis, Laboratories of democracy.
”From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added].” —United States v. Butler, 1936.
A good starting point would be to repeal the 16th and ill-conceived 17th Amendments.
I like the name REALDEMOCRAT party
138 House Republicans voted to reject Pennsylvania electors yesterday.
I’ll stick with them
I broke with the GOP twenty years ago and registered as unaffiliated. But in the case of others, the actions of Rat leadership to continue to shred the Constitution and the GOP response to it will be the determining factor in a successful third party movement. Only time will tell. As a former, solid "C" history major; I watch and wait.
The Left will be in total control, for 100 years, if not, even, more! You mean well with this creation of a new political party, but it won’t come into actual fruition any time soon. The Democratic Party is the only major political party in existence, now.You have no idea about the caliber of hurt that’s coming our way, for years to come. Conservatives and Conservatism will be wiped out, to the best of abilities, unless an actual civil war does happen with Conservatives, actually, winning!
I really can’t see staying with what we have now representing us. What do we have to lose, when they will always win? At least it will make a statement that we stand with none of them, but stand for our Freedom, America, Constitution, and Trust for our future generations.
Build it and they will come. Even those on the opposing side will come when their eyes finally see and realize they have been deceived.
It might take many years but we will be a force to be reckoned with, even when they try to wreck us in the process.
They want a “great reset”, well, let’s give them our own Great Reset.
Note: Still in the back of my mind is that America stands in the way of the new world order. They want to bring us to our knees. This could be our last and final stand before the end that is to come.
The current republican party has now guts to confront the evil domestic or foreign. Trump understands this.
It will take China attacking Taiwan, and our acquiescence to wake us up.
For now, it’s happy days in DC. The market is up, and for now the rats and rinos are having their day.
Trump knows that you can’t succeed with a third party, but maybe we have a different agenda and that is to get the Rinos out of there.
COMMON SENSE PARTY!! WHO doesn’t want to be known as having COMMON SENSE!
There was a defunct party called the American Party.
Tend to agree with you, Sapwolf.
As the song goes, “I’m proud to be an American. At least I know I’m free” — at least in aspiration.
American is a name President Donald Trump would be proud of, too.
Like the gops will stand behind,and support,anyone,
who is a true repub.
Same with dims..they don’t want anyone in their party who is actually pro Constitution
I think my Congressman Jody Hice of Georgia’s 11th District is one of those exceptions. He’s been behind President Trump all the way. Actually there are quite a few Freedom Caucus members who all stood out during Impeachment time.
Then there are the RINOs hiding under wolf costumes like Tom Cotton and Dan what’s his name from Texas.
I agree, there’s pain getting it started, but the long term benefits could be huge. Long term, it’s the way to beat the Deep State and oligarchs and Chinese puppets.
If it is to be done, we’d best do it soon. The elites are congregating around the cushy chair in order to be seated as leaders of the new party. First seat OUR leader(s), then come to an agreement on our name.
I second that, it is catchy.
Yeah, Pravda isn’t cutting it for me. OAN or News Max in limited doses.
That is, by the time a new patriot/conservative party is formed and implemented, it will likely be irrelevant for at least three or four generations. We'll need to take a different tack -- develop and implement a plan on a significantly shorter timeline -- to save our Republic and our Constitution.
Thanks nikos! Certainly worth considering. Serious times call for serious action.
I’ve read that our Founding Fathers never wanted a two-party system.
