But the thing is, that’s exactly what an Establishment RINO can and will do, though. Hoover, a Progressive Wilsonian Democrat (who switched parties because he knew the ‘20 elections would go against the Dems and became a Republican) didn’t strongly adhere to the Harding-Coolidge policies and FDR ensued. Ike, a non-Conservative (who was raised by a Socialist) failed to follow that agenda and obliterated the GOP as a result and ushered in the disastrous ‘60s.
Then you had Jerry Ford (RINO), and Bush, Sr., who undid Reagan’s agenda and gave it all away to Bubba. Then the son who gave it all away to Zero.
Now, mind you, I’m not accusing President Trump of anything, only that we’ve seen countless examples of RINOs ruining the good works of Conservative leaders. I worry that any successor to him will be of the gutless variety and will either lose the 2024 election or undo so much of what he’s doing now in a single term, before handing off the Presidency to a Stalinist hardliner in 2028.
*Did* you happen to read my link? Because the President is going about uprooting the Deep State itself, so there will be no liberal establishment *left* to take advantage of his departure from the White House.
