Tax reform?!? Healthcare?!? Forget that man, there is a coup d’etat underway. The democrats, MSM, Deep State and judiciary are criminalizing not only Trump but all his supporters and the GOP itself.
Getting its act together means calling the Dems what they are, namely subversive, and fighting them with every means legal and illegal at the GOP’s disposal. This is scary stuff going on right now. We have a deep state surveiling it’s opposition and using that information for God knows what.
How the heck does anyone get anything done in Congress when the Russia meme has hijacked the ship.
Your wife sounds like an ideal candidate for a religious health-sharing ministry that costs a fraction of a traditional insurance plan and is exempt from ObamaCare.
The GOP has no credibility to attack Democrats right now. The GOP controls both houses of Congress and doesn’t need a single Democrat to pass whatever they want to pass.
Build the wall, repeal Obamacare, simplify tax codes and cut taxes.
“This guy comes in throwing high heat several times a week. Pretty smart.”
He’s a neverTrumper, how smart is that? His instincts blow. Why people follow, read etc is beyond me.
All neverTrumper’s careers and reputations should be finished.
Uh, I don't know if you're keeping up on current events, but the GOP is on the other team here...
Younger candidates with more energy, fresh ideas, and no grudges to be repaid above all else.
Primary the bitter clingers in Congress.
Oh, and how about recruiting some decent GOP candidates? Karen Handel seems like a nice lady, but she's lousy at politics so she never should have gotten in the race. Her upcoming loss is going to motivate our enemies, and we can't have that. We don’t have the luxury of letting nice people who are crummy candidates be our nominees. We need winners, not losers...The Democrats are out there recruiting military vets – there’s one jerky liberal everyone finds annoying in every big unit, and that’s who they pick. They’ll preen and pose and get elected and then salute General Pelosi and vote as ordered on every item of Democrat soldier-shafting liberal hackery. That’s the threat – are you ready for it? You need to spend some time and effort on candidate selection and grooming; you need to make sure that in every district our money is on a winner. Are you doing that? Who is doing that? Why do none of us know about how you are doing that?

GOP Inc really can’t defend its record over much of the last thirty years, let alone the last five months.
As the GOP has become the "introverted little brother" wing of the Deep State's support staff, I'm not sure their loss and eventual total destruction (as in California) is going to make any long term difference. Only the rise of powerful, liberty-minded individuals can do that - whatever political label they choose to wear. Trump and his supporters are already non-Republicans - even if they haven't officially severed ties, yet. The party has already rejected us.
If I were a young and talented man interested in a political career, I would certainly prefer to start as a Democrat, too. Why handicap yourself by wearing a damaged brand?
The timing has never been better for such. He should’ve done it back when the GOP was pushing him to sign that crappy ‘loyalty’ contract.
Runs on repealing Obamacare: Doesn’t repeal Obamacare.
What was the old quote: “In my many years I have come to a conclusion that one useless man is a shame, two is a law firm, and three or more is a congress.”? Yeah, that’s the one!

You don’t think the donk brand is damaged?
They expressly reject the male qualifier in your description and then add ‘no whites need apply’ for good measure. Young, talented, attractive females of color get top billing because ‘intersectionality’. Unfortunately for the left, most young, white male (and some female) voters see these candidates and are reminded of their HS and college teachers, which is a turnoff.
They’ve lost every Special Election this year, except for some statewide seats in one of the NE blue states.
Because they have the media, they seem much more prevalent than they are. However, the younger voters perceive the truth that the media is unfair, illiberal and lies. Every day, fewer voters under 60 watch TV, read the WSJ, WaPo, NYT. They may ‘hate’ Trump, but they are more likely to support a 3rd party. I don’t know how many are inculcated by FB, but I will bet just as many have learned to hate the bullying, the censorship and the flat-out hateful rhetoric there.
Hillary is a caricature and Sanders is for Bernin’ Down the DNC.
While I’m sure some senior R leadership will fall on their sword so they can blame losses on Trump, the current state of districting means they are likely be primaried while Trump survives and thrives.
I usually like Kurt Schlicter’s writing. No one is perfect. This article illustrates that.
The GOP is mostly just a flaccid reflection of the Democrat Party but without the guts. Both simply want to keep their money and power spigot gushing in The Swamp.
Schlicter is correct. If they want to win they have to fight and succeed - not posture and whine about it. Nobody who loves America likes that except their supercilious, preening selves.
The Democrats are out there recruiting military vets are they doing so at the VA hospitals?.
“I’ll NEVER vote for a Democrat, but I might just STAY HOME and NOT VOTE for a Republican”
And then what?
Not that I like these guys, but we are going to need a better plan than this time-tested bout of stupidity.
And of course be re-elected.
that s the problem, and all they care about
Solution
Term Limits
Age Limit - not uncommon for Board of Directors which these people in essence are
On Obamacare or replacement
Not allowed to earn any more in any form than what the job pays....
“You must get the President’s agenda passed”
I hope Mr. Munster heard that.

Then what!?
Sit on FR and complain about the Democrats?
The left isnt a joke, dude. They aren’t going to be as ineffective as the GOP and for sure wont give a toss if you don’t like them and stay home.
This is them with their act together.
As the leadrship is uniparty, they work hard to look busy and promise much, while actually doing nothing.
They do not want to change anything. They are oposed to raining the swamp because they like the swamp. They are the swamp.
It is hard for them because now they could actually make good on promises and most of their work now is generating excuses as to why they still cannot do the things they promised with both chambers and the presidency.
Which is why the uniparty has decided its time for the democrats to take over at least one chamber of the congress in 2018. Then the repubs will have a better excuse to say they are unable todo anthing as they dont control both.
This is the uniparty plan against Trump and draining the swamp. Pendulum shifts back and the uniparty repub leadership gets more plausible cover and allows the democrats to do what they overtly cannot do, ie directly go after Trump.
