Great article. The GOP leadership is not conservative, it is statist, ruling class, and elitist. They have achieved nothing conservative in 30 years, because their interests are not our interests.

They are allied with the democrat/communists in a uniparty.

It’s a good cop/bad cop set up. We get to vote for the good cop, but they are both going to put us in jail.

“Great America Party.

I like it.”

Except that “GAP” lends itself well to many negative phrases.

I believe Myth used the phrase “severely conservative”, rather than “seriously”.

Both still sound stoopid..

So I guess Donald Trump is the Orkin Man of the Republican Party getting rid of the RINO pests like Lyin’ Ryan, Mushmouth McConnell, and the rest of the GOP leadership.

The 'talking' is easy, it's the 'doing' that's hard. The RINO party is currently flooded with talkers; worthless, useless and destructive.

Time for Trump to clean house.

It bears repeating: “What the hell is conservative about uncontrolled immigration?”

Smoked them out. The BUSH one world government GOP is dead.
Go to the issue list that Reagan ran on and print them out. Then print out Trumps. Not much difference economically.
And they claim to back Reagan conservative principles. Get it Mark Levin? You HACK!

The Bushes have let it be known that they aren’t endorsing anyone. Ditto the Koch brothers. Romney, who famously claimed to be “seriously conservative,” won’t be at the convention. After all, what do any of them owe to the Party that supported and defended them with sweat and money?

Da Bushes, Romney, and Bill Kristol can go eff themselves...get the hell out of our party. Friggin' ingrates.

“What is conservative about...” Is an incredible and starting point for any topic of discussion. I very much welcome and enjoy Trump realigning the whole concept and outing a number of idiots that have been playing people for a very long time. The reality check is refreshing.

Excellent article. The GOP has been faking it for a decades. And I admit I was snookered, especially when the opposition comes up with candidates like 0bama, Kerry and Gore.

But they didn’t listen. They told the people to sit down and shut up, ala Arlen Specter in a townhall over the 0bamacare bill. The Tea Party, in it’s early days, was a true grassroots movement of citizens across the country, forming in small groups with a smaller government in mind. They were trashed, ignored and in many cases, co-opted by professionals hoping to capitalize.

They wanted inside the club candidates, bought and sold with campaign dollars to keep their lily whites in comfort at the expense of the electorate who longed for an outsider.

And when one emerges with his own resources, the masks drop suddenly and severely and in all corners of those supposed ‘conservative’ media types and in the broader, milquetoast GOP for all to see.

This needed to happen. At least for me.
