Honorable Mention

* Mark Levin (finished strong)
* Ted Cruz (finished strong)

Formerly respected somewhat, now TOTAL GOATS:

I would move Ryan to the very bottom of list after his absolutely STUPID congratulatory message to Trump today: “Donald Trump heard a voice in this country that no one else heard.” What an absolutely nonsensical thing to say.
FReeper LS, and on Twitter, Mitchellvii.
Donald Trump #1, Drudge, Sundance from Conservative Tree house, Alex Jones , Michael savage Hannity .Ann Coulter, Ivanka Trump , Sarah Palin
Jesse Jackson: Keep out da Bushes! Don’t P in da Bushes!
I was watching Steven Crowder’s live Youtube coverage of the election last night. I was pretty disappointed when he brought Ben Shapiro on. Shapiro was spouting early on that Trump was going to lose FL, OH, NC, just a huge Debbie Downer.
I left this coverage for a bit when Shapiro was on, came back, then Crowder went on a little bit of an anti-Trump rant so I was done with his coverage and went elsewhere. I would have considered Crowder for your list until I heard his rant and having Shapiro as his guest. Maybe Crowder will learn from this.

Not a bad list.
Newt, Rudy and Jeff Sessions belong at the top of the list. Kellyanne Conway did a hell of a job too.
Forget George Will.....time for him to go. Even today his mouth moves and stupid keeps coming out. somebody make him go away.
Now some thoughts on your choices....
* John Kasick
-—I don’t know how the GOP keeps this guy around for how horrible he acted. Trump, do what you will with this guy....he deserves revenge.
* Glenn Beck
-—nut job. somebody’s paying him, don’t doubt me.
* Karl Rove
-—Read some of my other posts of late....this guy has got to go and take his whiteboard with him.
* Charles Krauthammer-sniffed like he was something special but turned out to be a big nothing-burger.
* Greg Gutfield-never liked this guy, never liked this guy, never liked this guy. He’s got a nasty disposition and fights all the time with Kimberly Guilfoyle.
* MeGYN Kelly-big female nothing burger, just trying to make hay on her looks and this election. Doesn’t come off as having a moral bone one.
* Chris Wallace-I’m still okay with Chris but I’m wary of him.
* Steve Schmidt -don’t know who he is.
* Mike Murphy-not know
* Jonah Goldberg -guy is real good writer but he threw it all away with his silliness with Trump. You reap what you sew.
* Ben Shapiro. I knew Ben Shapiro, did you know that? When he was young, new to editorial writing, we both entered a writing contest together. He told me he was going to be a big success in life and damn if he didn’t. Got a little spot in my heart for him on that. But he did wrong with Trump and Benjamin.....come talk to me like we used to....I will set you straight.
* Pope Francis-I’m Catholic and can’t stand this pope.
* All Bushes (except George P)-Every one of them need to step down because like the Clintons, I am sick of them. They all need to go away. For despite their convictions that America will not go on without them, America will do even better with no more Clintons or Bushes.
Heh.
Shouldn’t Sen. Jeff Sessions get mentioned, he was the first Senator who endorsed him, wasn’t he?
I’d add to the Radio list, Dennis Prager. He was not a Trump original BUT since the end of the primaries, he has been VERY FIRM for Trump.
ryan jumped the shark and ended up in its mouth.. he’s fish food
Bill Kristol, Mark Cuban - goats.
Guess I should do your other choices, huh?
Nice thoughtful list by the way.
Politics -
* President-Elect Donald Trump-indeed he was great. I’ll tell you true that I smirked over that thing with touching female private parts because nobody out here in la-la land where we carry this country on its back didn’t know that Trump likes the ladies. Indeed we WANT men that like ladies.
And all those years, here’s Trump, a rich guy even when he was bankrupt, and nobody ever filed a civil suit against him for intrusive groping? Nobody ever set the guy up with film....nothing, nothing? Oh I suspect that Trump did some groping.
Men GROPE! You got to slap them if you don’t want it. I suspect that Trump’s gropes probably didn’t push him away.
Anyway, we like the guy cause he said he wanted to make America great again, he told me at least about awful trade deals, I learned from Trump how foolish this country is being run.
I have not doubt one that Trump will straighten this country out. And I doubt he’ll be groping anybody.
* Vice-President Elect Mike Pence-oh my goodness Pence won this presidency as much as Trump. Love the guy, love how he shrugged over Trump gaffes, loved how fluid with words he is. And someday he will make a great president.
* Rudy Giuliani-great guy. What’s he going to be, Attorney General or something in the Trump admin?
* Ben Carson-loved this guy. Maybe surgeon general?
* Newt Gingrich-did a good job although sometimes he scared me.
* Michael Flynn
* Kellyanne Conway-she did such a good job. I’d love to meet her someday.
* Steve Bannon
* Nigel Farage
Radio/TV -
* Sean Hannity-perfect. I almost didn’t mind Sean’s constant interruptions of guests. Hannity believed what he believed and he didn’t play around with his part to try and wedge himself in for some kind of new position like that awful George Will.
* Michael Savage
* Laura Ingraham
* Lou Dobbs
* Ann Coulter-she did good.
* Alex Marlowe (Breitbart)
* Tucker Carlson-LOVED TUCKER!!! Glad he got rid of the bow tie, too. Also did George Will but still he must go.
* Andrew Wilkow
* David Webb
* Pat Caddell-admitted he was wrong.
* Neil Cavuto
* Fox Business
bump for later
Right on!! Conway repeatedly walked into the fifth-column media cesspool shows, knowing they were going to try to dump every excremental lie and trick question at her.
And she beat them back every time, coming out smelling, and looking, like a rose.
FXRP, Newt finished well but in February he said that Trump was a joke and would not be President.
Like I said he finished well but he does have some establishment in him.
Rudy and Sessions were off the hook, loyal friends.
Kellyanne Conway was great, really like how level headed she was. I guarantee she will be rewarded very well.
Conway would be perfect as Press Secretary, but having to deal with the fifth-column leftist media in the White House press corps on a daily basis seems more of a punishment than a reward.
Somebody sent me a Freepmail and mentioned that awful, awful Stirewalt guy.
Time for him to go and he just go here.
Here’s why I despise Stirewalt....and Dana Perino while I’m at it. They got this new show and before the election they are talking about various states and their EV’s. Dana mentions about Pennsylvania and Stirewalt-who at first I liked-says that the Republicans always like to pretend they can win Pennsylvania.
Then he, and Dana, launched into some kind of nasty vignette that had Stirewalt pretending to be talking on the other side of his hand as he whispered something to the effect “they dream....they dream.”
Snotty and snarky.
In fact, somewhere I even put up a comment about that bit of snark, which I thought very unprofessional, and how I was not going to forget it if Trump got Pennsylvania.
But frankly, what with Stirewalt being an expert statistician and know all about politics, I figured Trump would probably lose Pennsylvania for a world famous Fox prognosticator wouldn’t do such a thing on live TV if not sure of himself, eh?
So consider this my vow to never let Stirewalt, whose time has come to go....he’s been around, what, couple of hours?
I will never let him live it down and give me time and I will find the snarky video clip.
