Free Republic

Virginia’s Republican lieutenant governor, Winsome Earle-Sears, said in a TV interview Thursday that if Donald Trump makes a third bid for the White House, she would not support him. Previously a vocal advocate for the former president, Earle-Sears told Fox Business that voters in this week's midterm elections have given the Republican party a “very clear message” that it's time for a new standard-bearer. “A true leader understands when they have become a liability. A true leader understands that it’s time to step off the stage. And the voters have given us that very clear message,” she said, after being...

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump I saved at least 8 Republican Senators, including Mitch, from losing in the last Rigged (for President) Election. Now they (almost all) sit back and watch me fight against a crooked and vicious foe, the Radical Left Democrats. I will NEVER FORGET!

Talk about making lemons out of lemonade. On CNN today Josh Rogin tried his best to paint President Trump’s decision to order strikes against Syria in the worst possible light. The CNN analyst made the claim that by ordering the strikes, Trump “burned all his supporters in spectacular fashion.” It’s true that some prominent supporters, notably Ann Coulter, are displeased. But “all” Trump’s supporters? Or even most of them? Surely, a significant majority of people who support Trump support the strikes. View the video here.

House Republicans who once dreaded an election-day pummeling by Democrat Hillary Clinton were instead greeted on Capitol Hill Tuesday with dozens of signature red baseball caps bearing the "Make America Great Again" campaign slogan of president-elect Donald J. Trump, the GOP nominee whom few of them had been willing to embrace. Until now.

For the past two years, the old-line media has been more than willing to help broadcast the allegations made by the anti-war crowd that "Bush lied, soldiers died." However, no matter how many times the likes of Michael Moore and Cindy Sheehan have made this allegation, they've never been able to make it stick. The only thing they've proven thus far is that they hold a twisted hatred of this country and feel consumed with resentment toward America's economic, military and political superiority. It turns out that it's not George Bush or Dick Cheney who has been lying to the...

President Bush had a chance to change history for the better. Instead, he chose a poorly qualified political pal who contributed to Al Gore's 1988 campaign, spent money on Bentsen, and never served as a judge or legal scholar. Bush's presidential career will be summed up as: giving the store away in education to please Ten Kennedy; passing an ill-defined and unlimited-cost Medicare prescription benefit; shoring up the sagging career of Senator Specter; paving the path of Hurricane Katrina with gold -- our gold; and wrecking the U.S. Supreme Court just as effectively as daddy Bush. I trust we can...

As we've all noticed over the last couple of days, the President has made a few strategic decisions that have not gone over well with certain types. The disruptors, the fair-weather Republicans, the single-issue Buchananite nutbags, the capital-L Libertarians, the tinfoilers, the McCainiacs and the plain old Bush-haters; all of them have come out of the woodwork to shriek in multi-hundred-post threads about how horrible George W. Bush is, how they'll never vote for him and/or any Republican ever again, how he's just another {liberal/socialist/New World Order Daddy's Boy/insert insult here}, no different from if we'd just gone ahead and...
