I'm finished with the Republican Party... Are you? (vanity)
5 April, 2016 | Me

Posted on 04/05/2016 6:39:49 PM PDT by Magnatron

I've only recently become a Trump supporter. I was leaning toward Cruz, but couldn't go with him when he decided to collude with the GOPe, fully knowing (I have to imagine) that there wasn't a snowball's chance in Hell they would pick him in a contested convention. It's obvious that the GOP has decided to self destruct. Their disregard for conservatives and their complete disdain for the middle and working class has turned my stomach.

I've turned in my membership. I'm finished for good with the Republican Party. I've decided to go Independant from this point forward, and I've gotten to,wondering...

...how many folks here have moved out too?

The libertarian party is calling my name

If Cruz is the nominee, I live in NJ, so my vote won’t matter anyways and the state will go big for either of the socialists

So voting Cruz is a waste for me

I will vote Trump is he continues on as a 3rd party candidate

If he doesn’t libertarian party for me

I won’t vote for Cruz, sorry

Newt Gingrich didn’t just say it can only be Trump or Cruz, he laughed at party insiders who entertain the thought it can be otherwise.

That would be amazing, but I really can't see that happening. I really think Cruz is convinced that if he doesn't get enough delegates on the first vote, the GOPe will love him enough for stopping Trump to get it himself on the second. It's delusional.

...Now there is the chance that Cruz is a masterful, Machiavellian genius, and will collude with Trump just before the convention. I guess we'll see...

I am a conservative. I never have been registered to vote before. If the trickeries and b.s. continue, this country will collapse. Continue

It makes no difference.

The political parties have declared that they, not the people, will determine who leads this country.

Our votes do not matter.

That is a bunch of crap and you know it. He was never a lifelong Dem...There are videos of him going back 20+ years stating he is a Republican and espousing Republican points.

His donations to Republicans also were greater than that to the Dems..

Stop the lies and eschewing media and GOPe talking points.

If there is a brokered convention, I will never again vote for a person with the Republican label.

Relax! Let the Cruznadians have wisconsin, both of which are Uniparty establishment.

Trump said we will get tired of winning, so we’re just taking a breather for a few weeks.

You might take some comfort in knowing that the real power in this country rests in people who don't hold public office. Or maybe there's no comfort to be taken there.

In either case, the clowns who live in the White House -- and the ones running for the job right now -- are nothing more than lapdogs for the people really run this country.

I’m through the Democratic party, actually. I quit after 9/11 and joined the GOP.

I have no problem with the GOP becoming more moderate, as I am right of center myself. I don’t think the GOP has lost its moral compass — not like the Democrats. They have some really dangerous people supporting them.

I’ve been done with them since 2008. So is my mom, who was a long time campaigner and activist. Used to drag me to all the political rallies when I was young. She is utterly sickened. But she was always an Ike, Barry Goldwater, and Reagan supporter. We send all our mailings back to the RNC in their pre-paid envelopes with the writing “NO MORE”.

2 years ago.

If you haven't de-registered yourself, when you do, you'll feel like you took a shower you didn't know you needed.

I’m only voting for Trump whether as the nominee or a write in. If they screw him and make me write it then I’ll ignore all the other races or perhaps vote Dem if they push me any farther away.
The party power brokers have the combined political acumen to fill a thimble.
