Return of the Whigs
A New Path after the Fall
October 1, 2016
Willing to say anything he was told, possibly able to get immigration and trade agreements they supported. Unfortunately the other two groups are not forgiving or neo-conservatives, they are essentially populists. The True-Trumpers are not part of the center right nation imagined by conservative think tanks. Robotic Rubio sputtered out. Robotic Rubio like many a sci-fi android threat was tricked into revealing his limitations, then left disabled and lost in an infinite loop of logical inconsistencies. I will not analyze any of the other seventeen on the bench, but it would be the same, each candidate could not unite all three factions in the primary. If Trump was a smarter more grounded person our nation would be in real trouble. He has the que factor, a talent for celebrity cleverness, and an identity with the True-Trumpers. He had the potential when given the keys to the institutional Party’s bus to be chauffeured to the oval office. We are fortunate because women and minorities can vote.

Placing the constitution above all other documents, while insisting on plainly unconstitutional policies. Honoring the Union while holding a Confederate battle flag, and claiming to be patriots while demeaning and wanting to destroy government. The True-Trumpers are populist, outraged, and out of control. They do not believe nothing from nobody, that nobody sent, knowing nothing is just fine with them. They will blame Trump’s loss on those traitor RINOs, the Republicans in name only.
