Steve Schmidt, an ex-Republican strategist who worked for President George W. Bush and the late Senator John McCain, has slammed President Donald Trump and his administration for its "corruption."
"The corruption is just unbelievable. And if you look back to the Republican convention, Joe, when we talked about it at the time, the chants of lock them upwhat I said about it at the time was it was banana republicanism," Schmidt told MSNBC host Joe Scarborough during his Morning Joe show on Monday.
"And the descent from the American republican into banana republic territory with all of this stuff has just been so stunningly fast, and the lack of outrage by elected members of Congress properly exercising their constitutional oversight responsibilities is just alarming," said Schmidt, who now identifies as an independent.

Ditto that!!
In 2003 CA Recall, he was aRnie’s undescended leftist nut.
What an asshat
Wow, a GOPe turncoat appearing on a cable station with a viewship something south of 100,000, and we’re all in a dither over what he says?
Every time I see another “so and so said such and such on PMSNBC” thread here, I cringe at the fact that the story is getting more eyeballs on here than the original broadcast.
With all the nepotism, squeezing foreign governments for money, selling secrets, the U.S.A. was just like a banana republic.
Then President Trump got elected.
Nice to know who your enemies are. Trump Republicans will not hire this guy -—ever
He left the Republican Party because the first GOP presidential candidate who told him he was a jackass actually WON.
In a banana republic, those in authority abuse power (i.e. Secretary of State Hillary Rodman Clinton). Trump has not abused power.
This article is an odd take on projection - as if to buy into Democrat projection when accusing a Republican for doing things that the Democrats have actually done.
Someone chanted something at a convention. Well, there you have it, ironclad proof that Trump is corrupt, racist, capitalist, elitist, banana republicanist, and all the other "ists".
Of course, the Democrats denying God three times at their convention, on tape, means nothing at all.
Idiot Schmidt says...
1:45 mark It’s OVER
2:20 mark Trump needs to start preparing his concession speech. Then says that Trump needs to call her and be the first one to say Madam President.

Bush, McPain,Clintons - same difference.
Just add this jackass name to the to be hanged list.
Dear GOP-E MORONS
The GOP is breaking small donor fund raising records off Impeachment. Let that sink in before your failed political consultants blow anymore idiotic smoke.
You bitter ignorant Never Trumpers, better wake up. You cannot get rid of Trump and survive as a political party. Any move against Trump will trigger a hurricane against the GOP-E that makes what happened to the GOP after Nixon look like a minor rain shower.
You are yesterday’s fools. US Voters have all ready consigned you losers to the trash heap of history.
another blah blah blah piece of manure who is a puke stain on the American people.
... and perennial campaign loser.
I would rather we go back to the old English tradition of having traitors hang, drawn and quartered.
Unfortunately the 8th Amendment prohibits that so I guess hanging will have to do.
Are any of us really surprised what this drooling hyena has to say?
Those who scream the loudest have the most to loose.
They helped to strengthen the shadow government. The SG overrides the constitution. They were self serving, Trump isn’t. The “democracy” that’s at risk is the power of the shadow government. Trump truly IS trying to return the government to “we the people.” Are we ready for it?
Can’t wait for 2020 and see the looks on these guys faces when Trump wins in a landslide!
