Purges should occur during the primaries. That is their function.

Vote straight Repub tickets during the general elections and get rid of the upcoming Socialists. Much of the crazy in the Demo party is coming from the lower ranks of that party.

Insufferable sissy Sasse is everything that is wrong with the Republican Party establishment. He’s boring, sanctimonious, and utterly lacking any accomplishment except for distinguishing himself by running his fool mouth about Trump to any enemy outlet that will listen.

Not true. He was on NPR's game show "Wait, Wait Don't Tell Me" and won Carl Casiles's voice on somebody else's answering machine. They loved him over at NPR.

“Well, hopefully they’ll all still score that SWEEEEEET Cadillac retirement package that their constituents will never see...”

Cadillac retirement package -— Which needs 2 B published weekly by all newspapers, spoken of on radio, and pictured on TV also...These schmucks are treated BETTER THAN our Armed Forces !!!

We need a purge. Let’s be clear, I am not talking about one of those purges like in those stupid Purge movies where we would hunt these Fredocons dorks for sport. That would be terrible. Most of them are too tubby or/and too delicate to give us a real challenge, and it would just not be sporting.

We are kind of anticipating the other kind of "purge" where idiots like the author put on their pussy-hats and come hunt us down. Some of us are even a bit anxious for that day to arrive. Our powder is dry.

Low Trump scores or not, everyone needs to work to replace these retirements with uncompromising conservatives who will support Trump’s mission to MAGA.

Only that will embolden conservatives everywhere to see the days of RINO’s are done for and speak unabashedly for the societal norms and values that made America great in the first place. Anyone who doesnt do that does not deserve Trump or to participate in the bounty that results from MAGA.

You do it in the primary. How many establishment types won so far? Name names. How many bigger names are there willing to challenge and not wait for retirements? None. They’re waiting for Trump to forcing them out.

Exactly!
The partisan labels of D & R are no longer operative.
The UniParty, both wings, was defeated in 2016 and the UniParty ain’t happy about it.

We finally have a two party system...President Trump v the government.

There's gotta be a firing squad somewhere for conflatuates and Dutch oven dwellers who post to threads that they either didn't read or didn't have the basic competence to understand.

FReegards!

Mea culpa. Permit me to edit:

I shouldn't post before my morning coffee. I assume you invented the word "conflatuates". What meaning did you give it? I think I understand the dutch oven reference, but that portion of your critique escapes me.

I coined the term as a word of art (i.e., a "conflatulate" n.) to describe one who conflates issues flatulously (another coined term derived from the same metaphorical root as ascribed to that of the "Dutch oven"). Kind of like when one flatulously hails his local Islamist terrorist with a "praise Mohammed (a waft of waste be upon him)...."

In terms of Bill Kristol, one might call him a "neo-conflatulate." Totally different application of the word as the context of use has changed, but the "Dutch oven" root pervades the air which surrounds him and his "emanations" of all kinds.

FReegards!

“These schmucks are treated BETTER THAN our Armed Forces !!!”

To me, the kicker is that there is virtually NO time of service requirement to qualify for their lifetime benefits.

” and be happy we’re not going to hunt you for sport “

Damn, I was so looking forward to a no bag limit hunting license.
