Donald Trump formally anoints himself the head of the Republican party at today’s Conservative Political Action Conference. Gilt-y: golden Trump statue pops up at rightwing CPAC summit Read more
The Grand Old Party, founded in 1854 in Ripon, Wisconsin, is now dead. What’s left is a dwindling number of elected officials who have stood up to Trump but are now being purged. Even Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell’s popularity has dropped 29 points among Kentucky Republicans since he broke with Trump.
In its place is the Trump party, whose major goal is to advance Trump’s big lie that the 2020 election was stolen from him. Its agenda is to exact vengeance on Republicans who didn’t or won’t support the lie or who voted to impeach or convict Trump for inciting the violence that the lie generated, and to keep attention focused on the former president’s grievances.

As the Trump party takes over the GOP, anti-Trump Republicans are abandoning the party in droves – thereby weakening it for general elections while simultaneously strengthening Trump’s hand inside it.
It is great news for Democrats and Joe Biden.
Democrats couldn’t hope for a more perfect foil – a defeated one-term president who never cracked 47% of the popular vote, left office with just 39% approval and is now hovering at an abysmal 34%, whom most Americans dislike or loathe, and a majority believe incited an insurrection against the United States.
The gift will keep giving. Courtesy of the supreme court, Trump’s tax returns will soon be raked across America like barnyard manure. Expect more of his shady business dealings to be exposed – more payoffs, cheats and cons – as well as civil and criminal prosecutions.

Funny.
Ditch is now a YUGE NeverTrumper looser, disconnected from The Base.
Trump was never the center, but the motivator.
Never about America with these jerks.
It’s the commie Guardian-they’ve cheered on the destruction of their own country, now they want to bring the US down (actually they’ve always wanted to bring the US down-we make their dysfunctional country look pitiful, they can’t stand that).
It’s the clown Clinton midget, Reich.
He’s a POS.
So wrong on every level.
A true Commie loser maggot.
Wow, obviously the writer either doesn’t know history or is deliberately ignoring that what he describes is exactly how the Grand Old Party was birthed.
The abolitionist Republicans broke off from the Whig Party and most of the remaining Whigs eventually saw which way the winds were blowing and followed along and joined the Republican Party.
The winds of change are blowing; The wind will blow away the chaff.
Lead follow or get out of the way.
It’s June 2015 again as the LMSM laughs off candidate Trump.
I’ll never forget Robert Reich promoting Keynesian macroeconomics 101 after Clinton was elected. Back then, he was either evil, or stupid, or both.
Now he’s both and he’s gotten worse.
I think it’s cool that I finally found something I agree with Reich about. This weakens the GOP but strengthens the Trumplican party. Once all the RINOs flee to the democrap/uniparty, we’ll all have more honest political exchanges and there will be a clear difference to choose from.
This Liliputian is still around stirring the pot?
Reich needs to stand up for America,,,,
The Grauniad, as the Guardian is often known in the UK, can be safely ignored.
I still fondly remember my all-time favorite radio jockey announcing the latest Pearls of Whizdumb to drop from the lips of “Robert B. Reiccchhhchhchchhhh”.
Robert Reich...
Won’t somebody please flush the damned toilet already?
The communist thought police are just laying the psychological groundwork so that the sheeple will not bat an eyelash at what is about to happen over the next few months to Trump and his entire family...
For over 100-years communists have been very thorough in rooting out not only their direct enemies, but have jailed, institutionalized, or killed every member of the family as well...
Unfortunately, most patriots are still singing the song that says: "It can't happen here!"
They have been, and are, in fact, in the process of manufacturing the "cheats" , "payoffs" & "cons" necessary to create prosecutable charges for the legal circus they are about to unleash on DJT...
Any organization that can massively steal a presidential election through the manufacture of millions of phony ballots can certainly do something like this, which is far less difficult...
********* Excerpting from a November FR comment *********
Based on communist history, a reasonable extrapolation (Now that the communist coup has been successful) would be a strategy that has been used throughout their history... (Only the names are changed):
Our communist rulers are right on schedule... Steps 1,4, 5, 6, 7, 8, & 9 are well on their way to implementation with virtually no significant blow-back from the sheeple......
Step #8: Indict, try, convict, and lock Trump family up in Guantanamo, Thailand, Libya, or mental institutions;

BLOAT...
Globalist Leftist Crap.
They ARE the Big Lie.
#ComDems All Lie.
They must, if they told the truth, no one would ever elect them.
Robert Reicccccch!
Head Shake
Dear Me. Reich,
Are you REALLY LOONY & EMPTY enough between the ears to believe the UTTER FOOLISHNESS that you wrote in The Guardian??
It is my sincere belief that in 2022, that the GOP will capture BOTH houses of Congress & will PLOW UNDER the DIMocRATS candidate for the WH in 2024.
(”POOR Joe” won’t be INFESTING The Oval Office in a year IF he’s still breathing, as every day he looks less healthy & is MORE obviously SENILE.)
“Kameltoe, the WEIRDO” has NO chance whatever against President Trump in 2024, IF she can successfully (UNLIKELY, imo) capture the FAR LEFT DIMocRATS nomination.
(My GUESS is that the RADICAL LEFT will DEMAND/GET a candidate FAR to the LEFT of Harris in 2024 & who will LOSE in the General Election in a most humiliating manner.)
What I’m wondering is WHO do we recruit & start promoting to replace President Trump in 2028.
yours, ex-cadet
