Very well done report. NPR, does actually, at times sound like real journalism, meaning journalism without an agenda. In this report, they found 50 people who voted for Trump and admitted that 49 love Trump even more, and even mentioned the evil 90% number, the percentage of Republicans ready to vote for him again. That was the key to getting Trump removed - bring that 90% number down to 60%, and then some elected Republicans might be willing to risk voting to remove him - but at 90%, it’s political suicide.
It is interesting how the groups they identified were looked at by GOP Old Guard, versus how they’re looked at by Trump. I shall discuss that next.
EVANGELICALS
GOPe: Let’s not make any strong promises, because “Who else are they going to vote for?”, we’re the only game in town that still opposes abortion (but we really, really, wish that issue would just go away - sucks when Democrats bring up the issue at the DC party scene).
TRUMP: I may not have the moral purity in my past to be running for Pope, but I will put Judges and Justices in the mold of Scalia on the bench. You have my word on that...and, of course, he’s come through on that.
WHITE WORKING-CLASS MEN
GOPe: Yuck, they get their hands dirty, they’re smelly, and they’re racist. We’ll keep getting most of them because “Who else are the going to vote for?”. After all, we’re the only game in town opposing gun control (but we really, really, wish that the issue would just go away - sucks when Democrats bring up the issue at the DC party scene).
TRUMP: “Your days of being ignored OVER! You are the Lifeblood of this country!” And no, Trump doesn’t look at them as smelly racists - in fact, one thing missing during the campaign and through today was any criticism of Trump from people who actually worked for him - and that was because Trump ALWAYS showed them respect. The media simply couldn’t find those (Trump-hating workers) people because they didn’t exist - so they had to create a new bunch of ‘victims’ who magically remembered Trump annoying them decades in the past.
VETERANS
GOPe: You guys did your jobs, now shut up and behave.
TRUMP: Loves them to no end, and that started way before he ran for office.
ESTABLISHMENT REPUBLICANS
GOPe: We run the Republican Party, we control the purse strings. Bow down (i.e., support Amnesty and stay clear of ‘controversial’ issues), or you will go NOWHERE in this party.
TRUMP: “Sorry, I don’t need to play by your rules.” But it’s great to see them moving his way...very few left who still oppose Trump and they look like TOTAL FOOLS, since they’re getting everything they’ve ever demanded from a GOP president.
Rubio, Flake, McCain, Graham, Hatch, Heller, Hoeven, Murkowsky, Corker and Alexander already voted at least once to abandon the rule of law and surrender the country to fraudulently documented foreigners.
Some have done it multiple times.
Graham says he’ll keep doing it until he is removed from office.
Bush League Republicans MUST become extinct before the Republic does.
It ought to be at least 50/50 all the time, considering they get taxpayer funding to spout their leftist propaganda. I didn’t sign up to pay for propaganda opposing or undermining my beliefs, but NPR/PBS recieves it all the same.
I wonder if they’re worried that the taxpayer spigot might get turned off. I wish.
