Funny the dumbasses at the Zotted FR site seem not to be reporting on the utter failure of #nevertrump. Instead they are updating their list of People We Hate Because They Support Trump.

It sure smells better around here now that they’re gone!

Is this Unruh person any relation to Jesse Unruh, the lib that Reagan spanked in his re-election as governor in 1970?

Funny how Cruz never publicly told them to stop it.

Tells you all you need to know about good ole Ted.

Yeah, I recall Lee, Rubio, & Cruz riding the Tea Party wave at the beginning.

Ryan too. The enemy is in the wire.

Lee whined, “He said my best friend’s dad was involved in the JFK assassination!” Wow. Sounds like a 15-year-old girl. Actually, it reminds me of the scene in Can’t Buy Me Love where the redhead cries to McDreamy, “You s*** on my house!”

With his supporters (presuming actual contriteness on their parts), I would opt to do so on a case-by-case basis.

With the slimeball himself, on the other hand? They'll be drinking cold pink lemonade from firehoses in Hell, first.

I have no ill feelings.

I simply no longer care what they have to say, how they feel, or what they think.

Screw em, the whole bunch, straight to hell.

This is not a game.

Their “conscience” should result in them representing the voters who have spoken.

Why give the People a choice.
They are too stupid to vote correctly.
I mean, isn’t this the USSR, er, USSA?
Where the elites decide?
