I wanna hear from ‘pub establishment types

[gatoveintisiete]

If you vote ‘pub every election and like that President Silverbacks agenda isn’t getting passed, then post in this thread.

If you are a Bill Kristol, Charles Krauthammer, George Will, Karl Rove, John McCain, W. Type then say so and I will commence WAR with you!

I don’t even think people like this exist outside the beltway.

I would vote for a demonic squirrel before I would vote for a radical left wing Democrat espousing American and godly culture killing policies.  Would I vote for Trump against a real god fearing American conservative,  hell know.  Demon Hillary Clinton is why Trump exists.  As long as she is on her psycho tour and yapping about whatever, Trump is going to get stronger and the Republican party gutted by an imposter.

Some are fighting back..
"The reluctance of others who are facing into competitive fights to go into the arena against Trump is notable. And it makes even strong critics of the president believe he can hold the line against GOP dissenters for the moment.

The president's approval rating with the general public is at 39.4 percent in the RealClearPolitics average - historically bad for a commander-in-chief at such an early stage of his administration.

But among Republicans, Trump's approval rating hovers around 80 percent in most polls. That means Republican lawmakers who are seeking reelection need to think twice before crossing him."
Why is Trump popular?  Only dang hope of getting us back on track from the Obama disaster.  Congress is a joke.  Trump push back can't come from senators.

It's probably not that outrageous to think these people only exist inside the beltway.

It's kind of sad that you guys think decent conservatives are some unicorn that needs to be hunted down

Demon Hillary Clinton is why Trump exists.

Or maybe Obama is why Trump exists.

President Barack Obama read to a certain portion of white America as an unending attack on white Christian identity, centrality and cultural relevance. In their minds, he was seeking to end their right to bear arms and the right of conservatives to speak freely.

For this group of Americans, Trump has been the corrective. As Ta-Nehisi Coates points out in his brilliant Atlantic essay, “The First White President,” for Trump’s supporters, his election was itself the point. Putting a human wrecking ball against political correctness, feminism, multiculturalism and even decency was the ballgame.

My kid plays a shootem’ up game on ps4 where there is never ending supply of zombies wandering around the streets slowly walking toward him that he has to avoid or kill, but there are always more coming, even after he kills them they re-generate and start walking towards him again.  This game is like being a conservative in the pit, I opened this thread up this morning and find that there is one on-topic response from stud poster FSD  and then like 4 or 5 zombies milling around the thread talking about other stuff

Not a Republican, but I believe that establishment types are largely on-board with his agenda. They just don't like how dotard is handling himself.

I know exactly what you mean fellow stud cat27. My daughter has one of those dolls with the pull string on the back. She pulls the string and out comes a mindless phrase. After you pull it 5 times the phrases start over. It's very similar to the non-conservative morons that seemingly reside in the pit.

[K-S-U-Wildcats!]

I compare it to playing whack-a-mole. That probably dates me a bit.

I can't answer the question because I'm not an establishment type. The last time I even donated was Romney. I don't think I know a single person who is happy with the "establishment" GOP like Ryan or McConnell.

Does that mean you think the alternative is better?

Which alternative? Cruz's conservatism? Absolutely. Trump's populism? The answer is still yes.

[Dugout DickStone]

Gotta agree, Ryan is the biggest weasel we've had in forever

Conservative populism is so money (swingers)

I guess my thought is, from a democrat, this is a whole new conservative idea. An un-American one.

Conservatism, in my mind, is about lesser government and personal responsibilty. A sound idea. Trump and Bannonites are about apartheid.

[gatoveintisiete]

False

On what grounds?

Let's pretend to forget that. What is it that the Trump/Bannon agenda push that the "establishment" types don't that you so resonate with?

I think this is an important question considering the ongiong discord.

Trump populism’s goal is to un-game the system to the benefit of all Americans.  Establishment politicians have sold our people out to foreign governments and multi-national corporations.  They are fuckfaces and are fighting him tooth and nail.
