“But what you are proposing here is a kind of suicide jihad against the structure of the Republican Party which will leave it in ruins, Trump out of office, Republicans out of office, conservatives out of office and Democrats running the country in the biggest comeback upset in political history. They will dominate the national legislature, they will appoint as they please to the court system, they will further their infestation of the bureaucracy, they will fund their NGOs and utterly dominate all our institutions.”
That’s exactly my intention. You claim it’s a jihad, I say it’s “calling their bluff”. I don’t think every R candidate feels as strongly against Trump as the GOPe does, especially at the cost of their own office. I fully realize that my plan is radical but we’re in desperate times here and continuing to elect token Republican opposition is going to do nothing more than slow down the march to tyranny.
It’s no secret that you’re not a Trump supporter. It’s also no secret that you’re in the minority not only here at FR but among the general public.
You may as well remove the “he’s not even a conservative” from your toolkit. That argument doesn’t work anymore. In fact, it’s toxic. Trump supporters here see on a daily basis the gyrations of hypocrisy and double standards you so called “conservatives” contort into with “Trump did this or Trump said that” when if YOUR candidate had done the same thing it would be met with universal glee and acclimation.
Millions of us see Trump as our last chance to keep the wheels from falling off the cart. The GOPe machine wants to keep their place at the trough. Everyone knows this thing can’t keep going on forever as is so if it’s going to crash, let it do it now.
Who says so??? Are independents bound by the rules of the two main Parties???
I too will not vote for any Republican in Congress if Trump is cheated out of the nomination...Seems those wanting our votes aren't too concerned...I'd think we'd hear their voices condemning the shenanigans of the RNC...But nope...Their all as quiet as a church mouse...
Thanks for the details.
I guess I should have known there are different rules for different states!
Oh no...I meant the Repubs.
Then Rush Limbaugh. Talk radio followed. Now there are enough program offerings to fill three stations in a market. Choice. We weren't dependent upon network news anymore.
The Internet. Free Republic, Lucianne and other imitators. Choice.
Print and the Big 3 are dying because they no longer fill the need. Choice.
The RATs and the Pubs face shrinking market share. For now the choice is "None of the above," unaffiliated or independent. Choice.
Give the voter a better choice and they will choose it. It's time.
Ahhhhhhh - that makes sense. Thanks!
