I find this disappointing. Its just the GOP trying to use Trump, not the other way around. They want to milk his supporters and bask in Trump’s popularity but that’s all they want. The GOP has no interest whatsoever in supporting Trump’s agenda.
I catch a lot of flak on FR about this but I just don’t see the GOP as a solution to the country’s problems. This is the same party that shares responsibility for it role in contributing to the sad state (dire actually) of affairs we’re in. So why continue supporting them?
We need a new party that stands for something and is willing to fight for it. We need Pattons, not pansies. Its our only chance to save this country IMO.
And for those who say a third party splits the vote, I disagree. There are 70+ million voters (at least) who are fed up with the DC dance and want a new partner. A new party would kick the GOP’s ass so fast you’d forget it ever existed.
The powers that be inside the GOP are not going to roll over and allow Trump to gain control over the party, or even influence it in a meaningful way. They are right back to their usual tricks: talk conservative when they need us, act liberal when they don’t. I’m done with that.
The GOP needs very strong leadership otherwise they don’t fight.....they’ve spent decades ‘playing’ politics with the left while the Dems fight tooth and nail to win. Trumps had 4 yrs. just helping them find their spine. HOW to fight as one unit they’re still basically too divided......get rid of the Rinos completely!
