The question to ask is: What other man of the GOP has the personal fortune, driven personality, and undeniable courage to accomplish 1/10th of what Trump has done in his first term?
Time after time we see conservative Congressmen talk big - until they suddenly get thrust into the national spotlight and turn into nervous, sweating wafflers. Trump is the only guy who been able to tell thwart the Deep State in any way, and he has only been able to accomplish this because they don't take him seriously.
Were he a sober-minded realist, they would have taken him out already. Since he plays a clown on the big stage and they believe it, they haven't chosen to take the more drastic steps - thinking that this Boorish Twitterer is actually helping their cause where he is.
But he keeps hurting them. And they can't understand why.
If you have followed Free Republic for very long, you know there is no perfect conservative.
Conservative purists fall in many catagories and being purists, in fact sanctimonious purists, there is no pleasing them.
“......he has only been able to accomplish this because they don’t take him seriously.”
Lol, if you really believe this drek then you have been out to lunch for a very long time,
