Ingraham on Republicans: 'A lot of them don't want Donald Trump to succeed'
FNC ^ | August 02, 2017 | FNC Staff

Posted on 08/02/2017 3:05:30 AM PDT by Boomer

Fox News contributor Laura Ingraham lashed out at establishment Republicans Tuesday night, telling Fox News' "Hannity" that "a lot of them don't want Donald Trump to succeed."

"A lot of them don't like his policies," said Ingraham, who singled out Arizona Sen. Jeff Flake as being part of "a significant Chamber of Commerce wing of the Republican Party."

She's right of course and we here on FR know this better than most but it's good to hear someone say the words loud and clear. The GOPe are no better than the slimy dems at this point IMHO. Grrrr...

Why state the obvious, Laura? Is it like diehard trump voters don’t get it?

Maybe she’s right. Maybe the majority of Trump voters need to see what the filthy b@st@rds in Congress are trying to do. But I don’t know if the average Trump person reads Ingraham.

President Trump is an interloper. Not a member of the club, and not on board with the ruling elite. He’s the last outsider we’ll ever have a chance to vote for, as the Uni-Party will lock down the primary process to prevent anyone else like him from getting through.

Republicans need to be sent a message. Every day for the next 3 years. Imagine if they began to hear from conservatives LOUDLY all the time.

Vote them out. Do not replace them with Democrats. Replace them with conservatives.

Our own swamp needs draining.

Repeal the 17th amendment. In only 4 six year cycles since it’s ratification look at the swamp the senate has devolved into.

“In only 4 six year cycles since it’s ratification look at the swamp the senate has devolved into.”

Interesting math you do there: 2017-1913 = 104 years; 104/6 = 17.33 cycles.

She’s not speaking to the people who read Free Republic. She’s explaining this to the rest of the world which wonders why Trump apparently has very few allies in Congress. In this regard, her words are quite welcome.

I might buy that if she was on PMSNBC, she was talking to Hannity - you know the last right wing nut job on FNS and his choir - many of whom are FReepers.

The problem has always been that there are socialists in the republican party who completely support the Democrat Socialist Party aka DNC.

The RNC is a satellite office of the DNC.

The RNC keeps calling and writing me for donations and I just keep sending them back with a big “FU”. I am very disappointed with the Republicans as they have shown to be just like the Democrats. I believe Trump with all of his warts wants the best for the US and is not a self serving selfish arrogant pos as are most in the Senate and Congress.

The first part of your post is entirely true. The second part, about being the last outsider we'll ever have a chance to vote for, hopefully is not true - for the sake of the future of the nation.

Personally, I think the genie is out of the bottle, and they won't be able to return to the club politics that has almost ruined America. A large number of Americans don't see the ‘elected class’ as elite, but rather see them as they are - incompetent, self-promoting, and unprincipled. I actually think we are going to be seeing more, and more, and more non-politicians running for office. I think social media-based campaigning will grow and grow, decreasing the amount of money required to run for office, and the days of ‘politics as usual’ are numbered.

Donors control the GOPe especially the CoC Cheap Labor Express variety.

Trump is not beholden to those donors therefore uncontrollable.

Right. You made my point. You are not the average Trump voter. As a freeper you know the score. I occasionally read her. Mostly I catch her on the AM news
