Cheney To CNN's Barbara Starr: Trump Took Us To Point Where We Don't Need You Guys Anymore

I think one of the reasons people get so concerned about the tweets is it is sort of a way around the press. He doesn't have to rely upon, uh, rely upon -- this is the modern era, modern technology. He's at the point where we don't need you guys anymore.

You need to let those cards play out.

Are you suggesting the lying media and the disciples of deceit in D.C. did not attempt to undermine and compromise Trump 24/7 for 17 months? Did this not already occur?

I'm relieved there are not two on here who think Trump is an establishment candidate. ☺

Rick Santelli,
Tea Party rant February 2009.

Followed up on September 12, 2009 with the Washington DC
rally which was my most memorable political event in my life.

Resulted in the largest sea change in Congress ever in 2010.

Ron Paul was the origin. It was quickly co-opted by others.

I’m on GAB. I like it a lot. Like a combination of twitter and reddit. And close to pure free speech, with the user being able to filter whatever he or she wants.

Of course they undermined him. Trump was the last person anyone would want to face in politics.

Jeb said it plainly, "Why is he doing this" .

Trump is a powerful man that knows politics. He destroyed the entire field. We are on the same team.

I am a happy camper and honestly could not put up with a nagging witch at the helm. America has been saved from 4 more years of Liberal Hell.

The position is hard if you are a liar. Trump will make it easy. He does not lie.
The media did their damnedest to destroy him. They lost.

Yes and it circumvents the #fakenews media

Their “spin” will not be a viable product to put on the market anymore.

The internet brought almost the complete demise of the print media.

Now twitter and facebook are the face of the New Media, making all TV news shows irrelevant to the furtherance of news coverage.

All started by Andrew Breitbart, the “King of the New Media” and morphed into the King of All Media

RIP to a great patriot.

One reason people don’t say Tea Party is that the left has successfully substituted the vile perversion “Tea Bagger”.

“Tea- bagging” is slang for a deviant and typically non consensual pseudo sex/rape act having to do with dragging the scrotum across the face of an unwilling participant, who is either held down, or asleep. It may have originated in the gay prison culture.

As disgusting as this term is, the leftist late show hosts like Bill Mahr were quick to adopt it and have gleefully used it almost exclusively as a derogatory substitute for “tea partier” whenever the subject of the Tea Party comes up.

I think that because this pejorative meme caught on in “cool” liberal circles, nobody wants to bring up the subject of Tea Party.

It’s one of those battles that unfurtunaty the “good guys” lost a long time ago - like defending Sarah Palin or Dick Cheney in public - there’s no point.

Oh; were all still here, we are just not what the typical politician would call an organized party.
There were too many lying opportunists out there that claimed to be the head of the TEA PARTY in order to collect money for their own scams.
We are all the same people who donated and voted for PRESIDENT TRUMP.
I don’t think most of us really want to become a specific political party organized along traditional party lines.
I think we are all very aware of the fact that once you organize along those lines, you start to get the creeping corruption that comes with that type of organization.
Two perfect examples are the REPUBLICRATS and the DEMOCANS; both parties started out with what they believed to be noble ideas and laudable goals, neither was able to prevent the inherent corruption that comes with POLITICAL ORGANIZATION.
I think it is better that all of us TEA PARTIERS stay just as a very large group of like minded individuals.
We do our own candidate research and vetting, we may not have the “in your face” ability to solicit funds or procure advertising, but I think in this last election we picked up 100’s of thousands, if not millions more of like minded voters.
I’ll settle for that.
