Don’t be fooled; the GOP establishment hates its own voter base, especially those who support President Trump—who make up the vast majority of the party. While the establishment wing of the Grand Old Party has taken a severe beating, a few stragglers still exist and are sabotaging any chance we have of triumphing over the left-wing Marxists. The GOP has long been content to play the role of loyal opposition to the ruling Democrats. The notion that we have two distinct political parties in this country is a farce. Need proof? Just take a gander at the Democrat pushing for George W. Bush to be the next House Speaker.
California Democratic Congressman Brad Sherman floated the idea of former President George W. Bush becoming the next Speaker of the House.
“He could come back,” Sherman said. “Obviously, I’m not a real fan of how the Iraq War went, but I would think that any reasonable Republican would be somebody that Democrats could work with — if it was part of a system where you didn’t have five of the most extreme Republicans blocking important legislation and saying, ‘If you bring that to the floor for a vote, we’ll knock you out of your Speakership.’”
Sherman said that Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), the GOP conference’s choice, would be “among one of the worst Speakers that we could have,” though Jordan would be politically useful for Democrats due to being a “disaster.”
The US government is an exclusive club, and you’re not on the guest list. In truth, the GOP’s main function is to serve as a handmaiden to the Dems, and every single establishment Republican shares more in common with the left than they do with the America First movement championed by President Trump.
They hate him because he’s the “people’s president,” not the lobbyists and donors president.

That’s why establishment RINOs like Don Bacon from Nebraska find it so easy to attack the majority of the voting base without batting an eye. Their disdain and contempt run so deep, they can no longer conceal it. Mr. Bacon, a military veteran turned congressman for Nebraska’s 2nd District since 2017, who also opposed Jordan for House Speaker, has now crossed a line by likening the MAGA movement to Hitler’s Nazi Party—employing a tactic ripped straight from the left’s repugnant playbook.
...
If we don’t get serious about rooting out RINOs like Don Bacon, we won’t stand a chance against the authoritarian left. As it currently stands, these globalist RINOs within the Republican Party are the left’s most potent weapon against us. They should be our primary and sole focus moving forward if we want get serious about winning.
Hello. I am simply listed as an “Independent” on Kentucky’s voter registration rolls. I lemented for a long time leaving because we actually have a closed primary preventing an “operation chaos” as Rush use to say.
The U.S. Constitution party was the closest to my views. Libertarians are too socially liberal and generally are open borders so I am definitely not going there.
In 2016 I stopped voting in Congressional elections and have no intention of returning.
After Mike Pence accepted obviously fraudulent electoral college votes, I dropped my life-long GOP registration and went Independent.
No political party can save the remnants of our republic.
Trump and no one else.
GOP is useless at the federal level….
The dictatorship is run by the 87000 federal workers making all the rules and regulations….how much water and electricity your dishwasher can use…Even if your dishes are dirty
We haven’t been a representative republic for at least two generations.
Instead, we live in an oligarchy.
Elections are placebos.
