and have done since the outset. It's cuckoo land to think they will get GOP consulting work after 2020. Outcasts, and proud of it.

He is as guilty as anyone in this mess and he needs to go and I don't care how.

Not one of you deserves one more DAY in the United States Senate, let alone another term. You’re all a disgrace to your oaths.

These guys are in it for the money. They're professional campaign managers and they know exactly what they're doing. Once Chump is out of the picture, there will be plenty other Republicans who will throw truckloads of money to these people to get them elected. Don't forget that it's the GOP candidates who always seem to have oodles of cash to spend. Chump is bad for business - their kind of business.

No, these guys and gals are not our friends, but they are not pretending to be. Their stated objective is the bun the current leadership of the GOP to the ground.

There's always been crackpots and extremists running for president. Whats new this time is that the Republican Party decided to get behind this one.

We've got the will, we've got the energy. What we need is to put those K Street wimps who show up every 4 years to lose campaigns for us put out to pasture, permanently. We're past the point of having campaign "handlers" who mute the message so nobody gets offended. To hell with the lot of them.

Some people out there need to be offended, as often as possible.

People like these give me hope for the future.

Vote Vets has a hard hitting ad out today, also.

The Russian bounty story is not going to go away like they hoped. It seems to be getting bigger, not smaller, and his attempt at explaining it away looks lamer and lamer.

This might be part of what sinks him completely.
