Republicans are in a world of hurt.


I think most of us Liberals and Conservatives can agree Trump is not the face of the Republican party. Way to much of a loose cannon. It fact, one can also say Trump got elected because he wasn't the face of the republican party. .He was the face the people choose not the established party choice. I'm not faulting that just reporting it.

Dividing the Republicans into four group

Wealthy fiscal Conservatives,
Tea party fiscal conservatives
Christian moral conservatives
Alt- bigoted Conservatives.

Each group has separate interest as to what they expect from the Trump.

As much as Trump is not the head of the Republican Party, he will embody them.

Established Republicans will be forced to accept any success of Trump Presidency as theirs, In fact they will overplay the successes and credit it to the Party more so than Trump presidency. (Trump won't like that). In so doing they will also have to bite the bullet on the failures, as much as they will try to just pin those on Trump. The divide will continue to grow. As to who gets the credit and who gets the blame.

Wealthy fiscal conservatives......Although many will be happy with tax cuts. It will change when Trumps stops the idea they can continue to take from poor to give to rich, as there's is just not enough money there, and starts stealing from the rich to give to the richer. Most of wealthy fiscal conservative are going to step back from the Republican.Party because of it.

Tea party fiscal Conservative. Although taxes are not the primary issues, most of the not wealthy tea party people will see taxes increase and debt increase.
The primary issue for the tea party is getting government out of their lives. Trump will not do that in fact, in different than current ways, there will an expansion of government intervention. Tea party conservative won't be happy with Trump, and that will reflect on the Republican party..

Christian moral conservative, think they will have it, Presidency, congress, and the supreme court,...... what are they actually going get... crumbs, crumbs so small in fact they won't be able to taste it. Republican party will blame it on Trump and the Liberals.....You can only go to that water trough so often before it turns sour.

Alt Conservatives, have two choices... scurry back under the woodwork or actually believe they have some power, If they actually believe they have some power the Republican party ain't going to be good enough for them, ain't going to go far enough for them. They'll be looking for their own psuedo-Nazi party to establish.

Anyway, this all becomes live game, of a shooting match, against the Republican Party, Lose one and it's a world of hurt, lose them all and there will be no Republican party. They won't be able to control the game with Trump, and that will be their demise.

The political map is going to change after Trump
Red won't be so red and blue won't be so blue.

It will turn red, with black and blue all over it.

    You think the Republicans are in bad shape? Take a look at the mangled, tired, semi-conscious, badly bleeding Democrat Party.

well they screwed the pooch too.

You see If you want people to identify themselves with your party, You better first realize who your excluding.
If democrats want to be the minority party , so be it. But they shouldn't complain when pooch yelps.

Good blog Jiminy. One man described the Repubs as mainly Front Row Kids or Back Row Kids. Front Rows are the educated or successful Repubs, and Back Rows are not. Front Rows were good in school and got degrees and careers, moved away from their town, and moved on with their lives. Back Rows were not good in school for whatever reason, maybe dropped out, maybe got a job in a factory, but never moved on from their home town and home town thinking.

Trump was playing to the Back Rows during the election and still is now as evidenced in his speech at Carrier. The whole election strategy of Trump was to make the Back Rows believe that through Trump they could finally move up to the Front Row. It's all about Trump..no-one else cares about them..no-one else can help them. This is the Trump show.

you see I'm different that you, i try to answer when you ask me a question.

Listen, I'm just guessing here, I certainly don't know what Trumps going to do.
And I don't know what the people will actually think of it. Neither do you.

So i'm guess, I'm just figuring out possibilities.

Do you understand? Possibilities?

Where do I stand?......... In the middle
You can call me an up Democrat, or a down Republican, just don't make it left or right.

Listen the way i see, you can shake the tree of the Democratic Party but "you'll still like them apples".
You can shake the tree of the Republican Party and your nuts will fall out!

You probable didn't get my minority party thing

But what the stupid democrats did was to say we need to get out the minority vote!
we need to get out the minority vote
we need to get out the minority vote
we need to get out the minority vote.

Over and over again. That's was the game plan, and it caused them to become the minority party

I doubt very much that he can or will stop the rich from becoming richer.

He is certainly not going to bring back jobs nor create new ones in manufacturing.

More US jobs have been lost to automation than to export to other countries.

This trend is only going to get worse.

Just think of all the jobs lost when self-driving vehicles become prevalent.

I need to clear something. like my throat and my brain

Do only black prisoners work for CCA?

IS CCA racist, or just the judicial system?

Of course someones got to be?

Did all this CCA stuff happen because of Trump?

Maybe you should write a letter to Obama, maybe he doesn't know?

Do you think Trump might use the CCA to build a few more Hotels. Call it the Trump Penhouse, or the Trump Pentagon (give it five sides and a lot of bars). I think before he does he'll put all his contractors in jail.
Boy, I sure hope Hillary never works for the CCA
Just think If we could get rid of Trump, CCA, and racist, then everything would NOT be Honkydory LOL

I think my pool man is racist... should I fire him?
well, I could if I have pool?
So i don't know what I can do about the pool man, but I'd sure like to nail my pedicurist!

Okay I got silly, just figured to conform......

I wrote this then I wrote the one to you...

Damn, I was on a roll!

What you don't think I'm funny?

"What in the hell is wrong with you?

Well, Hello, do you have that on CP, so you don't have to write it all the time?

I hope so, wouldn't want your fingers to get tired too.

So have you, ranger , and Jkh hooked up with these little messages, that in reality are a long description of what you really mean... You know like an inside joke?
or do you just have nothing else to say?

    Quoting Fossil_Fetcher:
    Even I can see it, Jiminy, and I seldom read your entire comments. You think in little segments. You cannot form a coherent thought and follow it through to a logical conclusion. Snippets are the best way to stop the overload your brain reaches when faced with a complex sentence. When you get one of those you immediately break things down into segments. Read some of your own posts for examples.
