Conservatives true face

Today George Will came out against Trump and the senate and house republicans saying that they should lose the next election because they had “abandoned their principles”. What a clever lie. No, Mr. Will, republicans haven’t ‘abandoned’ their principles; following the example of their commander in chief, they are wallowing in shamelessness and showing the naked face of what ‘conservativism’ is all about: maintaining the political privilege of wealthy white men by using the Fox propaganda machine to stoke the flames or racism and ‘John Bircher-ism’, and urge them on until it reached its logical conclusion.
No, Mr. Will, conservatives have not abandoned their principles; unhindered by shame, they have finally seen them put into effect.

Trump isn't what is killing the Greedy Old Pig party, they have been morally bankrupt as long as I can remember.

under him, gop stopped pretending they care about anyone but themselves. He has zero power w/o GOP active support. As much as I’d like to hate him, he is the purest expression of GOP ideals we have ever seen. So the anger should really be directed at GOP, not him.

THE group to take down, are the RepubliCON U.S. Senators. They are the ones giving us Trump, the destruction of our Democracy, and the destruction of our own people. If the RepubliCON Senators didn't enable him in every way possible, Trump would be out of there the very same day......

Wake Up Dem Politicians, screw concern about Trump. Ignore him, I'm not sure why you waste your time and energy on going after Him... Go "all in" to destroy RepubliCON Senators up for election or re-election.

If the Dems had the house and senate, Trump and the entire RepubliCon party would be obliterated. Without the Senators,
the ENTIRE RepubliCON administration would be toast.......
