I'm finished with the Republican Party... Are you? (vanity)
5 April, 2016 | Me

Posted on 04/05/2016 6:39:49 PM PDT by Magnatron

I've only recently become a Trump supporter. I was leaning toward Cruz, but couldn't go with him when he decided to collude with the GOPe, fully knowing (I have to imagine) that there wasn't a snowball's chance in Hell they would pick him in a contested convention. It's obvious that the GOP has decided to self destruct. Their disregard for conservatives and their complete disdain for the middle and working class has turned my stomach.

I've turned in my membership. I'm finished for good with the Republican Party. I've decided to go Independant from this point forward, and I've gotten to,wondering...

...how many folks here have moved out too?

My caveat is that no one is immune from being purged. If Trump fuchs us over he’s gone too.

But the current rino goper jackwagons that need purging have been fuching us over for decades. And demanding we take it, enjoy it and ask for more. Because where else are we gonna go?

They are done.

“People are going to oblige. The purge has to begin sometime, and somewhere.”

The best time will be election night when Hillary beats Romney.

Cruz has been a consistent Conservative his whole life.

Trump has supported numerous Left Wing Democrats including Hillary Clinton and Bill De Blasio.

I think even Trump is shocked that so many of you believe he has “changed”. He is LAUGHING at every “conservative” who supports him.

Ted Cruz would be the most Conservative nominee in our lifetimes.

He's a globalist on par with the Bushes and Paul Ryan. If you consider the globalist agenda to be a fundamental aspect of conservatism, then you might be correct.

If you support a candidate who openly attacks conservatives and what we stand for and pretty much proposes authoritarian / statist big government policies as a solution to every problem, praises Planned Parenthood at every turn, a long time supporter of amnesty, hurls vulgar profanities beneath the dignity of the office he seeks, opens strip clubs, etc. you were probably in the wrong place to begin with. Trump embodies everything we claimed we didn’t like about some in the GOP hierarchy all of these years - now you claim those traits are to be embraced.

In 2008 the republican party sat idly by and let their VP candidate be savaged by the media without lifting a finger, in fact, many of the same republicans going after Trump were going after Palin in 2008.

It was disgusting then, and it is disgusting now.

“They are done.”

I agree.

The rinos should continue to be primaried, the Tea Party has done an excellent job of that, and Rinse and Romney and other GOPer’s need to be forced to resign.

The call for their resignations should start as soon as Hillary wins Fl on election night.

I thought he was until he went to bed with the establishment elite....

Consider that some may think that too, but with a different twist - that the GOPe "went to bed" with Cruz, and if/when Cruz gets the nom, Cruz and Conservatism wins. It will be the GOPe left in the dust.

After all, the GOPe put every obstacle in the book and then some in the path of Cruz, until it fell apart with tippy toes.

Yes you are and Mr. Trump appreciates the fact that you haven’t figured out he’s the one doing the playing.

Hey McMoron, my wife has been working at the same company that has gone through 8 bankruptcies in the last 15 years. If you do not understand bankruptcy is used for debt restructuring please have your nanny wipe the drool from your face. Has been a good healthy company throughout. You on the other hand have caught TDS. Have the nanny dab again. Your lick spittle is flowing over.

They are going to knee cap him. Sorry to break it to you. Cruz will never be the nominee. They would without hesitation substitute Ryan.

Trump.... They fear him.

Weve been played ever since Bush I re-election. In 96 it was “Doles turn”, the guy who never acted like he even wanted to win. Bush II curtailed freedoms and increased surveillance, who can forget Harriet Myers, then McAmnesty in 08 and Romney Obamacare in 2012.

You can work to change the party or abandon it. But when was the last time a third party actually won anything?
