The GOP establishment (I thought) are employees of the GOP voters. Must the GOP base now fight Big Govt as well as Big Party?

Maybe there was never any difference. We have seen the enemy and it is the Beltway establishment.

What would be a very exciting thing would be for Trump, after he is elected, to start a movement for a Constitutional Convention to get term limits for Congress....

I would love to see that...A TWO box of popcorn show!!!!

For years many have been saying there is no difference in the parties. For many years defenders of the GOPe have been saying the GOP was for Conservative values.

In the past 2 years part 1 has been proven TRUE and part 2 above has been proven FALSE!

Spot on. There NEVER was a real difference. Well almost never. Newt's insurgency in 1994 was real, just not long lasting. He supplanted Bob Michel's as Minority Leader before his Contract With America coup. Michels went on record saying that he enjoyed being in the minority all those years. All the perks and privilege without the responsibility of power.

I just got an email from Rinse and Repeat this morning asking for my input into picking a new Supreme Court Justice. I sent him a reply that not to worry he won’t need my input because President Trump will be picking the next Justice. LOL!

The GOPe consider themselves employees of the donor class. The base/GOP voters are just the rubes they use every few years for votes.
