The GOP establishment is dead, thanks to the Trump Revolution. And that's fantastic news
Fox News ^ | January 13, 2020 | Steve Hilton

I want to talk about the "Trump Revolution" because I don't think there's been proper recognition of the substance and significance of what this president is doing

.It's completely different from what we've seen before. It doesn't fit into the establishment's traditional ideological boxes and that's why they waste our time with pointless political games like impeachment.

We saw the new approach clearly with Iran. The Democrats, never-Trumpers and their media lackeys lurched wildly from calling Trump weak to branding him a warmonger.

\So they can write whatever pompous, self-righteous nonsense they want in The New York Times. The establishment Republican Party is not coming back. It is dead, killed by their policy failure and Donald Trump's policy success.

There is no constituency for their ideas, except a handful of opportunists who traded their principles for a contract with the Democrats' cable news networks, where they poop off about the president's tweets while ignoring his policies. Here's the level of their analysis.

Nicolle Wallace, MSNBC host: I truly believe he is the hamburger-eating, Zamboni-riding loon that we see on TV and on Twitter.

They're like pampered aristocrats in pre-revolutionary France in powdered wigs and fake beauty spots as they witter to each other, "My dear, Trump is so vulgar!"

Well, maybe he is. But if you're someone who has finally got a job after years on the scrap heap, you'll take that over elegant failure.

BINGO! Well said, he’s not just any bully. He’s my bully! The guy I hired to clean up the swamp. And sometimes you have to get all muddied up to tame the swamp.

President Trump should make a campaign appearance at a hockey game, state that he was given the chance to drive the zamboni, but that "the job belongs to someone with appropriate experience."

I’d love to see a rise of a new political party (Trumpism Party aka America First). After November, I think that the RINOs and moderate Dems will join together, the nutcase wing of the Dems will be the AmericanSocialist Party and Trump supporters will be the AmericaFirst Party.

The Turtle isn’t stupid. He can read the polls that say 95% of Republican voters support Trump.

He may not like the guy, but he’ll defend him in order to preserve his own position.

Bush League Republicans still dominate the Senate.

Plausible. There are no longer enough left of either to win an election.

“And sometimes you have to get all muddied up to tame the swamp.”

Something that Republicans would learn.

I heard this after Reagan was re-elected in 84, a new Republican Party was upon us and we all know how the Bush came in and gave us twenty-five years of utter cowardice and leftist BS.

If Trump wants the establishment dead and buried he must rip it out of the RNC at the national level and state levels, if he has to fire everyone of these inbred snobs or these STUPID bastards will show back up like a bad case of hemorrhoids and will be back to idiots like Bush, McCain and McRomney and a congress that hasn’t done a damn thing since 1995 Contract with America.

“The establishment Republican Party is not coming back. It is dead, killed by their policy failure and Donald Trump’s policy success.”

While I wish this were true, I don’t believe it. Killing off the establishment pukes is like trying to eradicate cockroaches. It is a never ending conflict.
