You assume that the Trumpanzees were actually Republicans, and conservative - before they got the chance to vote for a celebrity - and even now, I don't hold that assumption to be true. From their posts and their comments on many sites, I'd venture to guess that many of the Big Cheeto's supporters were apolitical - at best - before Trump gave them the chance to vote every prejudice they harbored in secret, every ignorant idea they held on economics, their total lack of political knowledge, and their total incompetence on anything having to do with foreign policy. They are incapable of seeing that voting for someone  who is corrupt and unstable, isn't any better than voting for someone else who is corrupt and unstable, simply because they have the right letter after their name.

Corrupt = Hillary
Unstable = Trump

Put the "D" ot the "R" behind whomever you wish, neither one has a "mandate".  Neither one has made a compelling argument statement worthy of a single TEA / Conservative vote.

IMO, the battle we ought to focus on is the Senate and House, in that order.  The POTUS is a lost cause without Ted.  McConnell needs to be replaced, Ryan needs his "fiscal reset" button pushed, until he "gets it".

The ,so called conservative, Trump supporters are in for a big surprise come November when Trump loses the election. Naturally those people will blame the TEA party for not standing behind and supporting Trump. But actually it will be their fault that Clinton won because they didn't stand behind and support the only conservative candidate in the primaries, Ted Cruz. Admitting that they were lied to by the Trump camp will be hard for them, but lied to they were. Trump is no more a conservative than is Clinton, but you can't convince the Trump supporters. Being led astray by the Trump bombastic rhetoric is going to be humiliating, but it's not our fault that they were stupid.

Well said Tac, and I agree, we're not to blame, the Trumpanzees are for aligning with libs to support a NY Lib.
What bothers more and more everyday is the parallel between FDR and Trump and his promises, all of which are essentially lies.
But FDR did the same exact thing, then went about the opposite.
All Big Govt Mandates.....

March 31st—Reforestation Act is enacted creating the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC).

April 19th—FDR takes US off gold standard

May 12th—Federal Emergency Relief Act passed and Agricultural Adjustment Act (AAA) passed

May 18th—Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) created

May 27th—Federal Securities Act passed

June 6th—National Employment Systems Act passed

June 13th—Homeowners Refinancing Act passed

June 16th—National Instustrial Recovery Act (NIRA) enacted, establishing the National Recovery Association (NRA) and the Public Works Administration (PWA) and the Banking Act of 1933 (Second Glass-Steagall Act) is passed

June 16th—End of Hundred Days

All the "former" Trump supporters will do is crawl back under whatever flat rock they were lurking under before. They'll lose interest because they will no longer have anyone as stupid, bigoted, and bombastic as many of them are - or would like to be - to look up to. They'll have to start listening to boring talks for and against valid political positions again, and how entertaining is that? Noting their to get the blood up? Might as well go back to watching porn.

I don't think you will find any true Trump "supporters" here and neither am I but I will vote for him for one reason. The next President will likely appoint 3 SCJ in the next 4 years and we know 2 things about that

1. If Hillary is elected they WILL for certain be liberals and will control the agenda of this country for the next 20 years, no matter who is in the Congress or Executive Branches. We have all seen too painfully how they can shape this country with decisions that find things in the Constitution that are not there while ignoring plainly written words which are. Say goodbye to a lot of things we hold dear if she is elected
2. While Trump is a flip flopper, we have at least a small chance he would nominate candidates to the Court who would not overturn the basic core principles the founding fathers wrote into the Constitution. With Hillary there is no chance in Hades that would happen. Pick your poison, just remember, some poison is very long acting.

Lame at best. I see this same "talking points" plastered everywhere on the web. Its nothing more than a fear tactic designed as an excuse for so called conservatives to pressure others to "fall in line" and vote for the orange obama.

I won't be part of electing The Beast.

You're voting for Cruz too?  Nice!  I'm glad you're on board.

You sound like a Trump University enrollee who is convinced Donald will teach them about real estate.  There is zero chance Trump will nominate anyone conservative to the Supreme Court.  He doesn't even know what that means.  It is so bad, he thinks judges sign legislation.  Even remotely thinking Trump would do something conservative screams idiocy.

I hate to break this to you, Shooter; but since the conventions haven't been held yet, NO ONE is a nominee.

I heard that and thought - WHAT!?  No way, I probably heard it wrong.

But, being the LIBERAL Trump is, that's how they get legislation through - via the courts.

The Trump Chumps as are bad as the Bernie/Hillary supporters.
