Registered Republican for 46 years changes party.

[anonymoose]

Lifelong stalwart conservative George Will said people should vote for the Democratic Party to get rid of Trumpf

That's what the person in theOP is doing . He even states his registration as a Dem is temporary

I registered as a republican or a dim before only so I could vote in their respective primaries.
E.g., if I were still living in Alaska when Lisa Murkowski runs I'd definitely register as a republican so I could vote for her opponent.

I can relate although I registered as independent rather than Democrat. But this guy thinks a lot like me.

After 46 years as a registered Republican, today I changed my party. This is a big deal for me and the primary reason is to allow me to vote in the Democratic primary. I wish to have a voice in the process of deciding who will take on our current abhorrent and corrupt President. The Republican party of smaller government, charity, separation of church and state, balanced budgets, no deficits and reduced debt has been obliterated by Trump and there does not seem to be any will to return to the party of Lincoln. So if I must vote Democrat to have a voice, I will do so. I will assuredly change to Independent after the primaries unless I am substantially changed by the Democratic party in the next few months. In theory, many of the policies being put forth by many Democrats seem attractive and vote worthy, however I have yet to see one plan which is either deficit neutral or supported by all Americans. I have grave concerns about programs like Medicare for All and Free College for All, etc. I am concerned that, a too progressive Democratic platform or a too progressive candidate will allow Trump a lane to plow through or if too Progressive a candidate wins the White house, I will have the same awful feeling about the new President.
We in the middle 10% decide elections and although I have registered as a Democrat to vote in the primary, I am not overly excited by any front runner on the Democratic side but know we must get rid of Trump.

Bye Felicia!!

OMG Murkowski is such a piece of shit.

there was no reason to like it before trump; it was a bunch of internationalist fascist war mongers like hillary.

trump has rejected the suicidal trade agreements and banker wars the globalists espouse, and hence, will be reelected.

nice to see this, but I have a couple issues with this guy's thinking:

1. there does not seem to be any will to return to the party of Lincoln. ~ the modern GOP is NOT the party of Lincoln, the two parties exchanged ideologies around the turn of the 20th century starting with TR I believe it was

2. The Republican party the separation of church and state ~ as far as I know the Republican party has always conflated 'Judeo-Christian' principles with government, and implied Democrats are ungodly socialists

the base doesn't believe those things anymore


they believe whatever trump says


there is no party without trump now


they hate the Bushes and never speak of what used to be their god Reagan


its the reTRUMPagain party


the Republican party is DEAD

[evince]

Trump stole the brain dead part of the republican base


the ones the republican party could fool and lead around by the nose


even if trump leaves or goes down they will NEVER be able to reconstitute the old republican party



it will be a tiny con party


OR

a racist heaven party


Trump broke it


it will NEVER come back

Maybe some people have seen the light.

And other people have been blinded by the right.

[Joe Capitalist]

Would you say that if it were repubs instead of Dems?

Country boy will say whatever helps him sleep at night. If it doesn't align with his mantra, it's "made up bullshit".
Sweet dreams. BWWAAAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!

GOP Rep. Rooney says he won't seek reelection


Rooney revealed his decision in a Fox News interview. A spokesman for Rooney confirmed to The Hill that the lawmaker won't run for a third-term.

"I don't think I really do and I don't think I really want one," Rooney said in the interview when asked if he needed a third term.
