The simple truth is that the GOPe leadership don't give a rat's behind what the loyal Republican voters think or want since those voters will vote for the GOP no matter what the GOPe leadership does. Either you folks are:

1. Patsy's in a massive scam; or
2. Insane. You believe that THIS time, things will be different; or
3. Probably both.

What I don't understand is why that simple truth is so difficult for so many folks to comprehend.

I comprehend just fine.

I don't like it.

The really BIGGER and more IMPORTANT question, what is your solution to this issue?

Possible, but only for a relatively small number of people. IMHO more likely its #3.

Sometimes it's best to destroy the old building and build a new one rather than try to keep remodeling one that has a shifted foundation and is infested with termites.

GO TRUMP!


Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Give a man a welfare check, a forty ounce malt liquor, a crack pipe, an Obama phone, free health insurance. and some Air Jordan's and he votes Democrat for a lifetime.

Nine, out of ten, Americans are stupid.


The only thing worse than a liberal is a liberal that thinks they're a conservative.

Not when you don't have any place else to live with deadly storms and hostiles all around.

There is nothing wrong with the foundation. It's the best that's ever been built. The structure has slid off and needs to be jacked back on.


We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?

Absolutely correct! No one has the answer, at least not a good one or one that can be done from a recliner in front of a big screen.

I always do vote R (except Perot) in the presidential general, and will this year as well (Nixon, Ford, Reagan, George I-once, Perot, Dole, W - twice, McCain, Romney, etc) but the primaries is where the battles have to be fought and the war won (Buchanan-twice, Paul-twice.) Trump is a once in a generation type candidate who is strong enough to battle the GOPe in the primaries and win. He says what the silent majority thinks but can never be "heard" saying. He gives a "national voice" to The People.

Since they passed NAFTA 20 years ago 60000 manufacturing plants have closed nation wide.NAFTA alone cost us 900000 manufacturing jobs.
If every manufacturing job supports 5 service jobs.
How many jobs have we lost?
CAFTA with the chi-coms an an order of magnitude worse.
No natural disaster or foreign invasion could cause this much damage to our economy.
You need to keep in mind that this free trade crap is part of the Republican party platform.
Destroy America?
Really?
The GOPe is getting a giant enema.
Its name is Donald Trump.

That's true. The stuff we want from politicians, we need to learn that we'll never get until we provide it for ourselves. That takes effort, struggle, sweat, repeated failure--in other words, work.

But as long as people keep believing that they can get all that stuff merely by voting, politicians will keep stringing them along.
