Hello Taichiliberal,
It all goes back to the Powell Memo. That's what sparked off the big split, the loss of respect Americans had for one another.

Hello Taichiliberal,
The TEA party was in response to having a black man elected as president. Taxes had not been raised and we were not being over taxed. That was not a problem at all. The TEA party was really just a front for racism. A way for those who hated having a black president to hide behind an idea when really, all they wanted to do was express how much they hated having a black president. They called him a monkey.

Hello Taichiliberal,
Interesting read. The Koch brothers wanted to 'break Washington DC.' No big surprise. That is simple but effective chess strategy. You get a slight advantage and then begin sacrificing everything you have because at the end of it all you have one more piece than your opponent.
The super-rich can 'win' at economics by having more wealth, and then destroying the economy. In the end, they are left with something, and nobody else has anything except the rich.
I guess simply having more money isn't enough for them.
Makes sense.
Happiness doesn't come from money.
The greedy seek more and more and more and more, but they find that they are no happier.
They don't understand it.
What else is left to them but power and control?
And what is the result of power in the hands of those who fall under it's spell?
It is wielded irresponsibly.
Ya gotta feel sorry for people who have tons of wealth and don't know how good they have it.
They can't be happy so they have to mess with other people.
They think happiness comes from making other people sad.
What fools.

A slight disagreement for clarity; on the local level, the Tea Party was about smaller federal government, lower taxes and reducing/eliminating the national debt. When it went national, it became perverted by the likes of the Koch brothers. Dick Armey was a prominent figure in the party but he resigned (with an $8M buyout) after the 2012 election because he disagree with the direction of the national Tea Party under the Koch brothers.
It was also at this time that the Republican party commissioned the Growth & Opportunity Project, the results of which they abandoned in favor of a "Make America White Again" agenda.

Hello Dutch,
I really enjoyed that article TaiChi posted. Very good insight on the origin of the Tea Party. I began a thread about it, it struck me so much, if you'd care to weigh in:
Why Paying Taxes Is a Good Thing

Shaken, not stirred!
Well, as I previously showed the growth of "Tea Party" politics was taking firm root before Obama showed up ... but you are correct that they went into officially recognized, full blown bat chit crazy when he was in office.

Hello Taichiliberal,
That article really moved me. I had no idea the Tea Party was a product of Koch brothers and big tobacco's desire to cut the taxes of the super-rich with a diabolical scheme to drum up hatred for government by funding organizations that would sound like grass roots organizations of concerned people, but really it was just the super-rich co-opting poorly informed minds to think the government was their enemy.
That's why I began the discussion thread: Why Paying Taxes Is A Good Thing

A Missouri Senate candidate holds a shotgun and calls for 'RINO hunting' in a new ad
A new campaign ad from Eric Greitens, the controversial former governor of Missouri now running for U.S. Senate, prompted accusations of glorifying political violence before being flagged by Twitter and removed by Facebook for violating policies around violence and abuse.
"Today, we're going RINO hunting," Greitens, a Republican, said with a smile as he slid the action on his shotgun in the 38-second ad. RINO stands for "Republican in name only."
Greitens and a team of men outfitted in military gear are then shown bursting into a home, guns raised.
"The RINO feeds on corruption and is marked by the stripes of cowardice," said Greitens. "Get a RINO hunting permit. There's no bagging limit, no tagging limit, and it doesn't expire until we save our country."

I love this fucking guy.
This was all a coordinated disinformation campaign with Rove, McConnell, and his ex wife
Yes because the government is totally not corrupt and they're here to help lol
Why is the universally loathed McConnel still the Senate minority leader? Because he takes more lobbyist money than anyone and uses that money to fund other corrupt Republicans who in turn keep him in leadership, the same goes for Schumer.
But ya the tea party and by extension the MAGA movement is one big Koch Brothers scheme, I guess that's why they and the Club For Growth have heavily funded the opposition campaigns to MAGA candidates throughout the country. You think the remaining Koch brother and big tobacco support Bannon, the precinct strategy, and the MAGA movement? No the Koch foundations and Club For Growth support Chamber of Commerce establishment Republicans who support mass immigration, cheap foreign labor, Davos, and one belt one road!
You really have zero fundamental understanding of internal RNC politics and the power struggle taking place within the party.
The Tea Party and MAGA movement was not in response to Obama but internal Republican corruption.

yeah. the neocon globalist libertarian traitors are still silent cuz they know their globalist treachery is wrongheaded and stupid.
they're just so used to being smug libertarians that they're still paralyzed by their own false sense of superiority.

Was it me?
The people are winning.
Disagreed. The Tea Party was a grassroots movement that, as soon as it was corrupted with money and nationalized, became anti-Obama. The MAGA movement was a third rate real estate salesman's successful attempt to capitalize on the angst felt by the stupid, poorly educated and white lower middle-class who felt left behind by the modern world. MAGA = 21st century Luddites. Look at what's been done so far: turning back the clock instead of embracing the future. Pure Luddite lunacy.
