Epic Never Trumper Rant



Boom, boom, shake the room.
The only thing that I disagree with is Trump being allowed to slink off the pay golf. Man needs to be in Court. Other than that splendid rant. Of course there is always a problem with the never trumpers, because they helped create the climate that allowed all those batshit crazy tea party wankers to get voted in in 2012 cause Obama and Jebus and which inevitably led to a republican party that could be taken over by Trumpism. Of course in saying that, at least they have seen the light and rants and the Lincoln Project all help towards the main goal and conservatives having conversations with other conservatives about the danger of reelecting Trump is a useful thing to happen right now, cause those, who at this point are still thinking about voting Trump, would never listen to a democrat!

Donald Trump exemplifies every value of the Republican Party. The never-Trumpers don't want to admit that. They seek to distance themselves from Trump, blaming everything on him, when it's their party and their behavior - over decades - that created the Trump presidency.

Is Trump responsible for McConnell?

McConnell should be held in prison for the rest of his days. He IS very much responsible.

The problem, how I see it, is that the GOP will go down and KEEP taking the rest of the country down With it if tRump pulls off an illegal election.

He's the guy who brought Sarah Palin and her craziness into the mainstream. By doing so, Schmidt opened a Pandora's box of bad political shit.

Palin gave voice to the ignorant and uneducated. She gave voice to the bigoted and stupid. She opened the door for Trump.

Trump is the logical result of decades of Republican's ugly politics. Consider the progression downwards of the last 50 years:

Nixon
Reagan
G.H.W. Bush
G.W. Bush
Trump

See the trend?

Still, I love to hear The Lincoln Project and other Never-Trumper Republicans trashing Trump.

But I'll never consider Schmidt, Rick Wilson, George Conway, et al. to be our political allies. It's just that we have a common enemy at this moment in history.

Schmidt may talk a good game now, but he set a lot of this into motion by thrusting Palin onto the American public. From the moment she accused Obama of "palling around with terrorists" it's been all downhill.

Speaking of Palin, is anyone as surprised as I am that she has pretty much been invisible throughout Trump's term? She's cut from the same cloth - an ignorant big mouth who tries to word-salad her way through questions. She seems tailor-made to be one of Trump's gadflies who comments on his every move and defends the indefensible.

I wonder if something happened between the two of them. Maybe Trump was afraid that Palin would steal his thunder? Trump has to suck up all the oxygen in a room. Anyone else is disposable.

Palin was "hot" to all of those red-blooded Tea Party types. I'm sure Trump thought he could grab her you-know-what, but Palin, as much as I can't stand her, WOULD be able to fend him off and put him in his place. That would have been entertaining to see!

They supplied the body parts yo the lab to create the monster and now the monster is running amok and destroying the Republic.

I don't trust them. Once this monster has been destroyed, they will be right back in the lab supplying more discredited and terrible ideas about creating a new and better monster.

That was the point I was trying to make also, your enemy can be your friend when you are united to fight a bigger enemy, but we can never forget that they were not just complicit, they were the engineers of enabling Trumpism.

He doesn't care about your health and well being.
He doesn't care if you or your kids might get Covid-19
He doesn't care about your kids and their safety.
He doesn't care if you have healthcare.
He doesn't care if you and your kids are hungry.
He doesn't care if schools are safe for your kids to return to.
Do you get it he DOESN'T care about any of those human needs?

HE ONLY CARES ABOUT THE ONE THING THAT GIVES YOU ANY VALUE!

YOUR VOTE! YOUR VOTE! YOUR VOTE! YOUR VOTE!

And only if you are voting for him. Otherwise, you are dust in the wind.

He may see tRump as "a bridge too far", but he is still 100% GOPutin.

After all, HE helped create this nightmare.

A cheater in the worst way.
He's a stroke shaver. 1 shot per hole, and 2 extra shaves per 9.
Says he shot 74, really shot 96. Or worse.
Shot 100, told partner he shot 74, and they believe he shot 96.
Lies about the lie.

From billboards, moving billboards on trucks, projected billboards, constant streaming on commercials/ads on tv and radio, newspaper reprints, etc. etc... Even the bedbugs crawling around his mansion need to come out to constantly whisper it in his ears. A 24/7 reminder that he is a constant failure, weakling, and the biggest loser to ever leave a shit stain on the American Flag, Constitution, American Presidency, and the United States of America.

in the last 4 years in the Republican party is that there is not nearly enough people who think like or follow his thought process. The people who represent the R party are the party of Trump they have jumped in line behind this man and all the destruction he has caused.

The people with R's behind their names own Trump.
