Forcing Boehner out only to replace him with someone worse—and more effective at being worse—is not commendable.

Oh dear God.

Yes, nothing is guaranteed in life except death and taxes. Trump is my last hope to change the Trillion dollar annual foreign trade deficits, which is the result of globalist agenda of free and UNFAIR trade. It is the single biggest reason why middle class jobs have gone away.

‘The very serious sin of Huelskamps was to oppose Trump which helps Hillary get elected.’

That’s it in a nutshell. Tired of hearing about all the great conservatives who have helped Hillary more than they’ve helped Trump.

Guess what lying Ryan is far more despised nation wide than a few social justice tax and spenders in your progressive state of WI!

Guess what? You don't have a vote in the primary next week.

btw, your ignorance on the current political nature of Wisconsin is very telling. The cities of Milwaukee and Madison are highly liberal. The west coast and Northwoods are moderate, but the highly populated eastern half of the state (minus the Milwaukee/Madison) is extremely conservative.

YES! INDIRECTLY!!

Because it helps Hillary and she is the Queen of gloabalism as ordered by her Wall Street sugar daddies.

I wouldn't call you a "leftist", nut neither would I call YOU a CONSERVATIVE!

You were all in for Cruz, someone who repeatedly lied, by omission and commission, was INELIGIBLE to even run for the presidency, was for open borders, wasn't, was for amnesty, was joined at the hip to a crazed lunatic, and hadn't ever achieved much of ANYTHING at all...EVER, except for getting elected to the Senate. Once there, he made himself a pariah, accomplished less than nothing and soon left to run for president. Even Obama, had more experience than poor widdle Teddykins.

Too far right is when you top it all off with FAUX religiousity. We are a SECULAR nation, founded on Judeo-Christian principles and British law, cum Ancient Roman law.

What you are trying to use as an arguement is trivial compared to the time spent standing in the gap, time after time!

The fact is you're not from KS so you have no idea what all we have fought for for many years.

All you know is that Huelscamp supported Cruz so he must be evil and beaten even if he was a conservative and lost to a RINO/liberal!

Somehow that makes sense to bitter Trump winners.

I just don't get why people cheer when KS looses a conservative to a RINO is good news for us!

I do NOT know KS, but read an article that Cruz’s manager was backing the PAC against Huelskamp even though Cruz supposedly was supporting him.

More Cruz sleez :(

Look, you are the one who screamed at me that Huelskamp didn’t vote for Ryan. I took the time to send you a link proving that TH DID vote for Ryan. You haven’t even been honest enough to admit you’re wrong—but now you’re lecturing me on how ignorant I am?

SMH.

Rep. Tim Huelskamp, R-Kan. — Huelskamp said he left a July 7 meeting with Trump believing Trump is “going to beat Hillary Clinton.” Huelskamp added that “four years of another Clinton in the White House would be a disastorous doubling down of the failed policies of the past eight,” and closed with, “Onward to victory for us in November!”

____________________________________________

He. Supports. Trump. Now. Last time I’m gonna say it!! Trying to lynch everyone who didn’t love him from the beginning is pretty friggin stupid and a great way to lose.

Marshall was endorsed by the chamber of commerce, they spent thousands to defeat Huelskamp!! Is every Marshall supporter on this thread gonna just IGNORE that? For years I’ve been hearing how the COC is the devil, Amnesty inc, they the good guys now? Are they? Are the Ricketts family the guys, they backed MARSHALL too.

This primary had nothing to do with Trump or Cruz. It was GOPE versus conservative. The GOPE won by fooling idiots with a fake outsider candidate. Shame. A sad shame.

Please stop lying; he WAS a NEVERTRUMPER and trashed New York as well, as the cherry on top!

You're the child and need to wake from your slumber.

Trump fans want any elected official who didn’t support Donald in the Primary, to lose even though the entire State of KS voted Cruz!

"the entire state of KS voted for Cruz"?

LOL!

Kansas employed the caucus system, which relies on collectivist groupthink to pressure people into supporting the candidate who is designated by the party establishment.

Additionally, caucus turnouts are invariably low. Touting Cruz's performance in KS is rather underwhelming.

Indeed, whenever significant numbers of rank and file GOP voters were allowed to have a voice, Donald Trump excelled, while Ted Cruz performed very poorly. Thus, in states which held actual comprehensive primaries, Ted Cruz emerged victorious in only a couple of instances. That's why he arrived at the GOP convention with such a paltry delegate count.

Vote Trump!
