Bush Sr.'s pastor: Opinion: GOP leaders backing Trump are in a moral abyss

[Swede]

Huh.


For most of my life I have identified myself as a Republican and, with few exceptions, have voted the same. But I now find that the GOP leadership of today is unrecognizable when compared to the party I supported enthusiastically during the presidencies of Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush.

1. Then you're deluding yourself, Pastor.

The party of Reagan and Bush Sr. may have done a better job keeping the nutjobs out of the public eye, but they were there.

6. Exactly, Reagan and Bush made this all possible. n/t

10. yep

one actor and another wildfire Bush ex-CIA director running the country. Reagan was one to continue the downward slide to the current EX-POTUS under many criminal indictments.

3. he loved the beginning of the story

but he didn't think about the risks he so soundly denounces. He helped it all begin and kept the ball rolling until ... now.

4. To Translate That Into Engish, Sir

We used to be able to control the rubes we whipped up with race hate so we'd get tax cuts and no regulations on big business and now they control us and just want the Ku-Klux to be in charge and there's nothing we can do except stand up and be counted as citizens of the United States and if we do that, good-bye career!

8. Most excellent and perfect translation!

Spot on.

7. Yes there is nothing christian about the republican

party and hasn't been for a very long time. Maybe not since Lincoln.

11. Why Shrub Sr. were you in Dallas that fateful day?

Were you not too busy in the CIA plotting the next assassination?
