Priebus defends against GOP voters feeling 'betrayed'

Washington (CNN) - Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus defended his party Sunday, after exit poll results from South Carolina showed more than half of voters felt "betrayed" by the Republican Party.

Priebus argued that it was not reflective of his party, but instead of more widespread anger at the federal government and politics in general.

"I think that if you look at all these exit polls on both sides of the aisle, I think people are just sick and tired of politics in general, sick and tired of Washington, D.C., and I think just actually sick and tired of both parties," Priebus said on ABC's "This Week" Sunday.

Well Said. This seditious lot, like the Ricketts family, will go to great lengths to make sure the politicians they select get elected. They do not want a sovereign America or a government that represents the will of the American people.

anger at the federal government and politics in general. An indictment of his own words. GOP-e has not role in 'federal gov't'.. they intend to just be a passive bystander of whats going on. It's something outside their control. In fact, since we intend to have no impact, we may as well stay here and gain personally as best we can..

In a sense, the GOPe did force Mr. Trump on us. If the GOPe had been responsive to, respectful of, the people who elected them; if they had not caved to Obama at every opportunity, had they not interfered with the primary in Mississippi and elections in other places, and supported the candidates of the people’s choosing, doing all that they could to ensure their elections, Mr. Trump would probably be home, enjoying his children, grandchildren, and the fruits of his labor.

Mr. Priebus, under Bushy dems scored most victories even with GOP in full power. Conservatives scored few. Under Obommy Dems scored all, and conservatives scored none. Then you fools piled on with Mconnel, Boehner and now Ryan. Buff said!

Hard to say this without offending friends and family but...is there something in WI water which makes one exponentially delusional?
I am happy that slowly WI is moving toward a more Red State (sometimes things take time) but seriously do they even take the time to talk to voters?

What this one is saying OVER AND OVER again is that he wants to see an anti-Trump third party challenge:

If things do not change and change for the good of us everyday, common Americans, the GOPe and inside Washington republicans are going to find themselves all alone...

Another party will rise WITHOUT them...It won’t start out as small as TEA Party did either...

It will be a real down to earth American party revolting against the political world we have had to live with...

It’s close to being over for you, Priebus...
