“So, should GOPe go ahead and run another candidate to totally dissolve the Republican party? “

Many GOPe and so-called “conservatives” are calling for just that.

The Hell he did. The GOP has no identity and already annihilated itself by being a bunch of lying whores.

Please do not debase the whores. At least they are working to make a living, not scumming the voters.

“The GOP has no identity and already annihilated itself by being a bunch of lying whores.”

That’s a fact.

I’m still a registered Republican, mainly so I can vote in the primaries against whichever GOPe slug(s) is(are) on the ballot.

“...the strongest field of presidential candidates in a generation — diverse, highly credentialed conservatives...”

While I agree that our bench is stellar in comparison to the Dems’, I don’t agree that it’s all that conservative.

They should not try back door shenanigans to deny a candidate the nomination.

I wasn't talking about denying the nomination. I was talking about a new third GOPe party. If they are so totally different than the rest of us shouldn't they split away?

"The MSM says Trump is causing the Republican Party to be "annihilating itself."

Propaganda pure and simple....the GOP has been divided by those who believe in the Constitution and those who bend it to enrich themselves. Trump had nothing to do with splintering the Grand Old Party other than to partake of favors on the left and on the right. This is certainly one of the reasons the GOPe and Washington/national elite are so terrified....Trump will run a very tight ship.

Many Americans, and especially Trump supporters, have had it with:

Anyone named Bush --- Anyone named Clinton --- Anyone who's held political office--- Political correctness--- Illegal immigration--- Massive unemployment--- Phony "official" unemployment and inflation figures--- Welfare waste and fraud--- People faking disabilities to go on the dole--- VA waiting lists--- TSA airport groping--- ObamaCare--- The Federal Reserve's money-printing schemes--- Wall Street crooks like Jon Corzine--- Michelle Obama's vacations--- Michelle Obama's food police--- Barack Obama's golf--- Barack Obama's arrogant and condescending--- lectures--- Barack Obama's criticism/hatred of America--- Valerie Jarrett--- "Holiday trees"--- Hollywood hypocrites--- Global warming nonsense--- Cop killers--- Gun confiscation threats--- Stagnant wages--- Chevy Volts--- Clock boy--- Pajama boy--- Mattress girl--- Boys in girls' bathrooms--- Whiny, spoiled college students who can't even place the Civil War in the correct century . . .and that's just the short list.

(exerpted from)

I might add: Obama’s abuse of the US Constitution--- Politicians abuse of the US Constitution---The SCOTUS abuse of the US Constitution.

“The people have attempted to be represented in the legislative, and have been thwarted by the Powers That Be, so they are saying that they WILL be represented in the executive!”

Precisely!

The Geriatric Old Plotters are going to spark a full scale rebellion if they attempt to deny the people their choice of president at the convention. They’ll push this country into total societal meltdown if they don’t back off and come to grips with reality. They do NOT own us, or our votes.

The DC political establishment of both sides has become so entrenched in their corrupted style of ‘government’, they simply cannot see how far they’ve departed from the form of government laid down by the Framers, and that The People are demanding a return to the mutually held agreements of our nation’s founding compact.

They’d better get a grip before they tie the noose around their own necks.

Once upon a time,the RNC brought together a brain trust of GOPe party elders to figure out what had gone wrong. Obama had just throttled Romney, the party lost ground in the Senate, and voters just weren/t into the Old Christian White Man demographic.

So the Big Tent of gays, abortionists, secularists, feminists, was resurrected.....and conservatives were herded onto an ice floe set adrift in the Arctic Ocean.

IMHO, the ignominious collapse of Jeb-You/re-Next drove a huge stake into the heart of the establishment GOPe. Forget erectile dysfunction. The fallout of being politically castrated is devastating to a Big Buck power broker.

The GOPe de-b***ing began when candidate Jeb said he didn’t need the Republican base .... and proceeded to carry on, business as usual, as his numbers sunk into oblivion.

Jeb telling a key bloc of Republican voters to take a hike is the consequence of the country club GOPe demeaning and dismissing conservatives as not being worthy of their elite party.

The entitled Jeb-You/re-Next took it as Gospel when he heard the Bush elders condescending attitude towards conservatives....people to whom the aristocratic Bush/s feel socially superior.

But the GOPe should know this: they will get no pity from conservatives for their woes.....and we aim to stick their noses in the mess they made every frickin’ chance we get.


HOLY HEDGE FUND! Jeb-You/re-Next spent over $125 million on his failed campaign. The GOPe power brokers must be choking on the chilled Cristal, Oestra caviar, and stuffed lobster in the country club Grill Room. Jeb left the presidential race after two humiliating out-of-the-running finishes in NH and SC.

Yeah, Compost, Slimes, and other lapdog lackey leftist propaganda organs, just keep ignoring that practically the same civil war is brewing on the left.

The MSM says Trump is causing the Republican Party to be "annihilating itself."

In the article it describes the GOP history as "...a party that had lost the popular vote in five of the past six elections."

Looks like they have done a pretty good job without Trump's help.

Basically there was no real GOP. It was hijacked by the communists wing of the Republican Party. We call the the GOPe and RINOs. The Party is in self destruct and may never recover.

The only hope is to make Trump President and rebuild. The names of the RINOs and the elite core of filth must be removed from office as their reelection comes up.
