As the Grand Old Party emerged from the Whigs at a time of great national crisis; so we see an, as yet unnamed, political reordering of the American Body Politic going on at this moment of great national danger and upheaval. This has far less to do With Donald Trump, as a candidate and populous rage; than an electorate in great fear of losing control of their culture, their national foundations, and their lives; to enemies within, and barbarians without. Americans have rarely felt this unprotected. I do not misspeak. Even at the start of WW 11 (which I do remember) we were scared, but fiercely determined to win, even when the outcome was uncertain. The issue of slavery and the specter of civil war dissolved the Whig Party and another ,the Republican Party, formed. They produced the unlikely candidacy of an uncultivated, shrill voiced, rude joking lawyer named Lincoln. The Great Depression and WW 11 brought FDR and the ultimate disaster of Liberalism. Today, after 83 years of liberalizing our courts, our schools, an ever expanding Civil Service, and a decadent Popular Culture; we now have a Marxist Socialist President, who is "Fundamentally Changing America" The last 8 years have finally touched Americans,as only the threat of losing your Nation, your Culture, and your Civilization can. Yes; it appears the "chickens have come home to roost", as they have for the American electorate every 100 years or so. This fact has eluded our political pundits and campaign strategists. So, there is far more than political anger and pay back involved. It has become a profound reshaping of the political order that will nominate and elect Donald Trump President of the United States. As yet this new political order has no name, and is now unlikely to be co-opted by either Party. The Party that understands this first and joins this movement, will have the first opportunity to recognize and direct it.
Reasonably well thought out, paragraphs would help, and are not yet forbidden.
Very good. :)
Not everybody gets it. Economically people are struggling; half just wonder why they can’t have the things their parents had: houses, new cars, other trappings that used to be for the middle class. All these new terror attacks. Some of us know it’s our leadership and who owns them. Others think it’s because they are poor victims and should be given goodies.
I love this. Want it on a bumper sticker.
“fiercely determined to win”
So far, only the moslems have this resolve right now.
Including the ones at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
I hear what you are saying. The tires are flinging rubber. Something new is coming-and I don’t believe it will be what 0bama intends.
My moonbat SIL is a fan of Sanders.
She married well, so the whole money aversion is peculiar.
“Once Trump is elected, there needs to be an effort to establish a new party with none of the old players in it.
The Republican leadership, the Republicans in the Senate and House have almost all failed us. It’s time for a clean sweep. Otherwise, as soon as Trump leaves, they’ll march right back toward the Left.
No way!”
These are very important words which need to be shared widely! At the same time, the rules for being in the Congress need to be rewritten. First and foremost, these positions are not to be lifetime employment going forward, and wlll cease to offer any beneifits whatsoever upon leaving office. No retirement, No healthcare, and term limits should be imposed. The corruption comes from being there too long!
The only way I’d ever vote for the old commie Bernie BS is to stop the old commie and liar with blood on her hands Hillary. My Lord the D party leadership has sunk right, or rather Left, into the sewer. Any chance the D’s might nominate someone less objectionable ??
“We currently have a Two Party System, the Communist Party and the Communist Sympathizer Party.”
We currently have a Two Party System, the Party Power and the Party of More Power ...
Agenda 21. Seattle city council wants to eliminate single family homes. No better start on eliminating the middle class.
wheres the bumper sticker?
This is great! Send it to the Trump Campaign, please! I want one or ten!
You are so right. Sorry. Indentations don’t get them.
Discovered we must double space instead,
hopefully that is.
Trump wins or loses the GOP must go and a new party replace it. It has failed us.
Bump!
[p] works too if you replace the ‘[]s with ‘<>s. P starts a new paragraph and br is carriage return and line feed.
Very well said.

The last 8 years have finally touched Americans as only the threat of losing your Nation, your Culture, and your Civilization can. Yes; it appears the "chickens have come home to roost", as they have for the American electorate every 100 years or so.

Not at all.
Next time I hope to be bright enough to double space,
instead of indenting.
There; getting the hang or it now.
Sincere thanks for pointing this out, and for your kind complement.
Agreed. It was a little unclear.
I believe, not in some kind of personality cult, but a movement that includes our Constitution, the values founding it, and those willing to fight for it. This must rise above any individual’s lust for power and control.
It is always dangerous when we overturn a corrupt established order, and replace it with a new reformed order.
One thing is certain. Once both Parties understand what is happening they will do and say anything to appear to support it. Then the Battle will become a War.
Our Constitution MUST be our guide and our bond.
Sincere thanks for your post
