Bears Repeating!
Well Said!
Thanks For The
"So woe to the chattering class who mistakenly believes Trump’s supporters are just a fringe “protest vote.” They are indeed protesting, but they do so as the New Protestants, coming forth from both major parties along with independents, sorely aggrieved at a dysfunctional government guilty of far more than 95 transgressions. They arise together in fury because our once great government has clearly become destructive of operating by the consent of the governed, and it is therefore the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government."
Yes! And the ones that consider themselves to be the elite ruling class would do well to keep that in mind.
We’ve been here before, but things have only gotten worse.

Trump is our middle finger to the GOPe!Sorry to be so cranky Boss.
I just get tired of being coaxed up on the radar and being shot in the head.
This is great, boss.
We on your great site are fired up over this “reformation” and fixing this broke government. I would love to see it fixed without firing a shot.
However, there are 49% of Americans known as the Givemedat tribe who like it the way it is and will fight to keep it that way.
They have support in the FERAL Government to keep the free stuff flowing down to the Givemedat tribe. Cut the flow off and stuff will start burning and people are going to start dieing.
Great essay.
The media mentioned in the article is the complicit media. After the debate, ‘the media’ were burying Trump.
And to Trump’s credit, he had his connections come out swinging about the obviously prejudiced moderators of that debate. And to underscore their prejudice, ‘the media’ networks proclaimed Carly Fiorina the winner, a candidate who hadn’t even been in the debate.
But Trump and Trump’s connections received serious support from one source....the new media. Free Republic, for example was proclaiming the extreme prejudice even before the debate was completed. But, As is the nature of the new media, it doesn’t influence all at once, but it takes a few news cycles, maybe even a week for them to fully permeate any discussion.
Free Republic was part of that, and the number of freepers initially giving Trump the benefit of the doubt, and then giving a full and fair hearing was a super-majority of the site.
And these thousands emailed, tweeted, texted other thousands, and the reframing of that debate was solidified. Obviously, other conservative sites had their part (not RedState which should be deleted forever from favorites lists for Erickson’s fabricated, menstrual lie.)
But, let’s be honest. We had a voice. Why did we have a voice? Because Free Republic exists. It exists because of our donations. Those who haven’t donated should do so. Do they really want to give up their voice?
