Republicans

On major economic issues, it does not appear that Republican control of Washington makes much of a difference. Hopefully regulatory reform will be a different story.

While some Republican lawmakers have faced angry crowds at town halls this week, many are going out of their way to avoid meeting constituents face-to-face during April’s congressional recess.

Many Trump supporters have expressed their shock, anger, disappointment and disillusionment with the man they once so vigorously supported. But they did it in what can literally (rather than politically) be described as a conservative way.

Now that Donald Trump has embraced the criminal, blood-stained policies of neo-con Republicans and most Democrats, the liberal mainstream media are bending over backwards to re-write their own  history.

Today, Donald Trump has shamed himself, his movement and his nation. But he does not bear this shame singularly. There are others who are puzzle-pieces in this grim jigsaw puzzle.
Almost from the moment that Donald Trump declared his intention to run for President of the United States, he faced a barrage of criticism and almost all of it was for the wrong reasons.
–He was criticised for wanting peace and cooperation with Russia rather than hostility and war.
–He was criticised for saying America first rather than intervention and meddling first.

Not just a line from our founding document; a fact.by Gaius PubliusBottom line first — Having justices like Neil Gorsuch on the Supreme Court is part of the attempt by Trump, Bannon, the Koch Bros and all Ryanist Republicans to dismantle the regulatory state. Dismantle — not undercut or chip away at. Tear down, starting at its base. Imagine what that will do.

Just over a week after the Republicans’ embarrassing failure to repeal Obamacare as a result of infighting with both conservative and moderate factions, on Monday White House officials led by the vice president met the same opposing Republicans in the House of Representatives, in an aggressive effort to revive the passage of the Republican Obamacare deal, potentially voting as soon as the end of the this week.

In true conservative style, Donald Trump’s views and politics have remained the same in the last four decades. The only thing that has changed is his delivery.
