Says it all!
Right. I will join a new party of substance. As the republicans replaced the Whigs etc. perhaps a tea party. Nothing like that here now or on the horizon.
Till then I will remain a registered republican. You make the assumption that I wish to associate with politicians of any stripe. I purposely don’t associate with politicians, lawyers, actors or any other phonies. And when I vote it’s usually with my nose being held. The only time I didn’t hold my nose was for Reagan. I would be a Libertarian except I tend to be more conservative than them and they refuse to defend America if she is attacked and their liberal abortion stance.
Currently my ability to pick a better candidate in the primaries trumps(small t) joining a party that hasn’t a chance in the general
When hillary loses, they can empty out the trash in their party, but it's the only way that's gonna' happen.
How do we turn that into a short message they'll follow?
registered Republican since 1969 and he is 47 years old???
I also recently changed my voter registration and quit the Republican Party to become an independent. Basically the same reasons.
Trump is not my ideal candidate, but he won the primaries fair and square. He got the most votes and was the people’s choice. If the party leaders don’t like the result they should take time to reflect on why people are so fed up and angry instead of working to undermine a popular and dynamic candidate. With the parties help Trump can win and the GOP can enact change that will help set the country right for generations. But what they are doing to undermine his candidacy is really bad - not as disgusting as what the dems and their media allies are doing - but bad enough I no longer want to be associated with them.

****************
Does it say he is 47 years old or a register republian for 47 yrs?
You’re being too kind.....

My apologies to Clint Eastwood :^)
The guy needs to man up and fight now...we have them on the run....on the defensive....let’s finish them off!
Trump is running as a Republican. We want him to be our next president. Why don’t we think of it this way - we are using the ‘Republican’ name (like the RINOs) but in a different way. We are utilizing all their resources to get our man elected! Don’t give up now when we are making such great progress! Get our leaders in, even if it is just one at a time! Focus on our goals! If we cannot fight them, we change them! Changing a party is not easy. It takes time -
the left, the globalists, the elites, the Muslims, the socialists/communists have worked patiently the last 50+ years to infiltrate the parties. We were asleep, but now we are awake. Luckily we have Trump rising up to lead us in the long hard fight! Take advantage of this!
Forget about the R and the D. We get our leaders in and work hard to change the political climate/culture. At the home-front, educate our children to be independent thinkers to counter the brain-washing effects of the ‘schools’ and the ‘media’ and the pop culture.
The most important outcome of this year’s election process is the final removal of the facade of the “two-party” system.
It is now clear to even the most obtuse observer that the DNC, GOPe and MSM are merged into the DC Uni-Party and “We The People” are on the outside, looking in, with our begging bowls in hand.
Their greatest fear is that the Trump Movement will morph into a competing political party to do wide-spread battle with the DC Uni-Party.
I look a it like the Globetrotters vs the Generals. You have to have two teams on the floor even thought EVERYONE knows the out come. Or professional wrestling, take your pick.
We are watching the Republican Party dissolve before our very eyes.
In the long run, a good thing.
And despite what they tell you NOT Trump’s fault.
“How do we turn that into a short message they’ll follow?”
That’s a good question because most people don’t have time, much less the inclination, for a lecture they didn’t sign up for.
I’d have to think about it but my initial thought is to point out that the corruption they so despise will certainly continue in a Clinton presidency, as she has vowed to carry the same torch as obama does now.
Then ask if they’re aware of Trump’s stated goals. Have they seen any of his rallys/speeches?
Have a YouTube or site address at the ready to refer them to. If they are serious about the country, they will at least take a look.
If they just want to sound off or have an argument you’ll know that too.
I think you’re right on when you think it’s best to keep it short and sweet. Who knows where it can lead?
The party nominates a guy he likes and he’s quitting the party? What’s his message? That he’s schizophrenic? I hope he’s still voting for the parties’ nominee, Donald Trump (R-NY) whom he says he likes.
Because it’s about control. The elites also don’t want us little people to be afforded the same opportunities and luxury as them.
That's it in a nutshell.
Thanks for the reminder. I’m getting that R off my voter card today! The GOP is a bigger problem to us and Trump than the DNC. PARTIES STINK! There is good reason the founding fathers hated them.
Says it all quite eloquently. I am betting he’s a FReeper.
The GOP-e: supporting the Democrat agenda.
PING!
I think about leaving the party too, but then I would be getting calls from both sides here in AZ. I just can’t abide getting calls from Democrats.
