Destroying the party was the express purpose of many of the Trump supporters. It looks like they may have succeeded for this year at least; no way either Trump or Cruz will win with up to 30% of the party sitting out or voting 3rd-party regardless of which one gets the nomination.
15. Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.
That was accomplished when the neo-cons became the GOP establishment. They were the Trotsky wing of the communist Democrat party. Then they were the GOP-e.
Now, We the People are taking back our party and our country.
“Destroying the party was the express purpose of many of the Trump supporters. It looks like they may have succeeded for this year at least...”
And why shouldn’t it be? The party is working more or less completely out in the open to deny our chosen candidate the nomination. Party hacks like Romney are coming out and fighting against Trump with more vitriol than was EVER aimed at Barack Obama. Reince Priebus and the GOP-e clearly hope and plan for a contested convention.
So what reason, exactly, do we have to be in ANY way supportive or loyal to the GOP?
