Boy, Scarbough! Quit saying "Trump is a Democrat"!

He is your problem! Every time you get s chance you say this! He(Trump) is a money grubbing ass, who loves himself, who looks out for the rich, just like the GOP! IF!!! Trump was a Democrat and won the presidency like he did? The GOP would have impeached the same day he took office! Remember the GOP said they would impeach Hillary one day one? Oh wait! You want ratings!

I was hoping he had dropped that.

It's a slimy way to shift blame over to the Dems and try and reshape history.

There should be pushback against this. For too long we have let Republicans frame the debates.

during most of those times he was a registered republican. He was a member of the "reform" party, when he pushed the birther/Muslim Lies, and ran for president under that before becoming a republican and running for president in 2016

The republicans own this racist POS, because he represents their party closer than anyone in the last twenty years

Joe S and his Mika were the ones who gave millions of dollars of free airtime to Trump when he was running for office, they apparently (it was reported) talked with him on the phone every day and visited
Trump tower, if my memory serves me, Trump seemed angry at them on one occasion and he threatened
to expose their (in his words) sordid little affair, they went quiet for awhile, then they started for the first time being critical of him and announced the engagement. I would love to know the back story on all of this, because my memory is not always accurate.

None of his policies represent the Democratic Party. Donald even bragged about giving to candidates to curry favor with them if they won. Since Ds tend to lead in NYC, it is nothing extraordinary that he donated to Dems.

12. And so begins the "He's not a real Republican"-spin.

Yeah, Trump is not a real Republican.
Except that he won the republican primary by a YUGE margin.
And except that both Ryan and McConnell publicly stated that they support Trump's policies 100%.




If I were Republican, Trump winning the primary would have make me NERVOUS AS FUCK.
Why?
Because there is a complete outsider just swooping in and the whole republican base is immediately abandoning the candidates of the republican party. Just like that.

Poof. An outsider came out of nowhere and all the republican voters are gone.

How loyal are your voters if they are willing to kick you out for the next-best braggart who comes along?
