NRO ^ | January 22, 2016 | Numerous RINOs

Take particular note of this item in the article: The Tea Party appears to be clinging to populism and discarding conservatism. Lunging for the power, as it were, while ignoring the principle.

This isn’t about getting rid of Trump, this is about ridding the GOP of all of US!

[Grampa Dave]

Thanks!

Time to Macy these scumbags!

One of the best lines ever...IMHO, of course.

I have sent that line to a couple of local merchants when they have trashed Trump. One got back to me that I was trying to deny his first amendment rights. I said that I was using my first amendment and will be using my $'s to support Trump not Trump haters. His boutique business is in trouble without pissing off a large % of potential customers.

“A bunch of Rinos talking to each other and slapping each other’s butts.”

lmao, I have to steal this.

Um, where were they in January 2008 when radical Progressive John McCain started leading the field? Funny how these so-called 'conservatives' weren't alarmed then.

It's funny how people who gladly supported the liberal policies or agendas of Bush I, Dole, Bush II, McCain, and Romney suddenly try to sound like ideological purists. It's especially funny because their idea of a perfect antidote to Trump's "menace to American conservatism" is probably Jeb Bush.

Just watched Brent Bozell and he was absolutely unhinged! Like someone else asked: Where were they in ‘08?

So the guy who has been been flipping parties for decades, and making heavy contributions to Democrats, is the "real" Republican? Seriously?

Trump is a populist -- the party labels actually don't mean much to him. The people often referred to here as the "GOP-E" may not be conservatives, but they've certainly got a better claim to being Republicans than Trump does.

4-Are Trump supporters even certain that Trump won’t end up supporting simply delayed Amnesty?

Is anybody certain about anything?

If I were on my Computer and not my mobile I would post my laughing Muttley GIF. Now the only thing they need to go is replace or just remove Grim Meegyn from next week’s debate.

A bunch of Rinos talking to each other and slapping each others butts. Which probably went past butt slapping after the tv spot.

If the Fox blonde Bimbo and her RICO conspirators play their collective conspiracy "Gotcha" game again, or even a hint of it, I'd rather wartch The Beverly Hillbillies!

[tennmountainman]

Trump will smash them like an ant.

[The Toll]

It’s about telling us that THEY chose the candidates not us. Just that simple.

[LostInBayport]

I think that was around the time I let my subscription lapse. Maybe earlier.

So who are the mushy middle at National Republican supporting? I doubt they would get behind Ted Cruz. He doesn’t “reach across the aisle” like McCain. And, he got Mitch McConnell upset by calling him a liar. Turtle didn’t come out of his shell for a week. I remember NR being very laudatory towards Boehner and McConnell.

To paraphrase a quote from Meet Joe Black... a message to the GOP establishment...

Don’t blow smoke up each others ass. You will ruin the autopsy.

[Bruce Campbells Chin]

Look, the issue with those people is that the first thing they're interested in is winning the election. So they almost always gravitate to the candidate they see as the most electable. Most of them would agree that they'd personally prefer a more conservative candidate, but they've become defeatist and no longer believe a strong conservative can win. So, they push for the more moderate candidates in the primaries even though they don't always prefer those policies..

For the most part, they're not evil or bad. They just think too "strategically: most of the time.

Because enforcing the immigration laws and deporting illegals is so reckless. LOL!

[AuntB]

Agreed!

[Suz in AZ]

They don’t get it. It’s not about conservativism, it’s about Americanism.

Oops.

[Georgia Girl 2]

The moment the RINOs realize that the tribe has spoken. LOL!

Trade Deals that ship Manufacturing to Slave Nations so we get cheap crap while decimating the Working and Middle Class

I am not sure it is all that cheap most of the difference is pocket by the international corporations.
