Ex-House Majority Leader Eric Cantor – swept out by the Tea Party-backed Rep. Dave Brat (R-VA) – is now on the attack against it and GOP frontrunner Donald Trump, saying voters have an unrealistic expectation from a Republican majority in Congress and Trump is “absolutely not” a credible presidential nominee for the GOP.

Maybe you can get a job as a janitor intern in one of Trump’s hotels.
Sadly Cantor probably is employed at seven figures and will remain so until death.
The government still takes in revenue even when the debt ceiling is reached. So the question is of priorities. This all or nothing game plays right into the leftist agenda.. Get a brain.
”..., saying voters have an unrealistic expectation from a Republican majority in Congress ..."
I reluctantly agree with former Rep. Cantor that low-information voters do have unrealistic expectations from a Republican RINO majority in Congress. This is because low-information patriots don’t understand that the anti-Constitutional Republic Progressive Movement successfully spooked our American ancestors to do the following.
They spooked our ancestors to twist the arms of state lawmakers to ratify the ill-conceived 17th Amendment (17A). State lawmakers caved in and ratified that amendment, not only foolishly giving up the voices of the state legislatures in Congress, but effectively repealng the whole Constitution imo.
As a consequence of 17A, the corrupt Senate, arguably the most unconstitutionally powerful office in the land because of that amendment, regularly does the following evil.
Regardless that the Founding States established the Senate to protect the interests of the states in Congress, corrupt senators now regularly hurt the states by doing the following. Senators help the corrupt House to pass unconstitutional appropriations bills, bills which not only steal unique, 10th Amendment-protected state powers, but which also steal state revenues associated with those powers.
“Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
Senators also allow activist justices to legislate PC rights from the bench, so-called “rights” like abortion and gay “marriage,” which the states have never amended the Constitution to expressly protect.
Again, regardless that Congress has the constitutional authority to remove lawless presidents and activist justices from office, the corrupt, post-17A ratification Senate just sits on its hands while the likewise corrupt executive and judicial branches wrongly exercise and abuse legislative powers that Congress doesn’t even have.
Finally, regarding corrupt senators, note that even after three election cycles, enough election cycles to have replaced all members of the Senate by now, misguided low-information patriots still haven’t elected the constitutionally required 2/3 Senate supermajority needed to remove lawless presidents and activist justices from office.
So not only is Mr. Cantor right about patriots expecting too much from Congress, but low-information patriot voters have actually contributed to the mess that Congress is in imo.
The ill-conceived 17th Amendment needs to disappear, and corrupt, Constitution-ignoring senators along with it.
Uncontrolled anger is not good.
However a burning resolve can work through
the worst grime.
America isn’t at the mall, we are FED UP!
““This is when the so-called radicals were out there demanding a shutdown, or default in the federal debt, and so if Republicans are seen and portrayed to have not delivered on what they said they would have, which is again an untrue statement, then Donald Trump is an outsider along with Carly Fiorina, Ben Carson – they’re outsiders,” Cantor said, in trying to reason why the outsiders are resignation with voters.”
The GOPe RINO’s continue to tell this lie “shut down the government default on the federal debt.” This is absolutely a giant lie being told over and over again!
This out of control government collects enough tax revenue to pay on any debt this country has incurred, but, would require this government to pay on individual debts instead of spending money we simply don't have. this is why the GOPe RINO’s and the communist in this administration shutter when ever the American people demand our representative shut down this government to gain back control over this government, it will mandate this government STOP spending money we don't have and pay only on those outstanding debts!
No more playing Santa Clause with our tax dollars, buying votes by handing out the American people's hard earned tax dollars to the moochers in order to get elected, and reelected e.g. “free college” etc.
Thank God the Tea Party kick this piece of $hit Cantor out of this government. The rest need to go next!
Go Trump Go!
Apparently there is a "full court" press of anti-Trump people and articles. What are they so afraid of?
Who wants to listen to a loser like Eric Cantor? Why is he making a fool of himself by making unsupported assertions? Why would he want to get on the wrong bandwagon filled with losers? Puzzling.
middle class has taken big hits financially and many have never recovered. In 2007 I lost my job as an analyst with IBM. >>>
You are correct. I jumped to the business area in finance after i could’t get work in 2001. java certified ex cobol. now where i am, IS was sent overseas and major other stuff. I’m less affected cuz i am no longer in IS. i do feel your pain.
“Trump is “absolutely not” a credible presidential nominee for the GOP.” The GOP is “absolutely not” a credible party!
Eric: Shut up! You could have been a contender, but you toed the Boehner-McConnell line of surrender and paid for it.
Now go away and let real men stand up for America.
The pundits are missing the pain aspect and no action by politicians is part of Trump’s appeal isn’t it
