GOP establishment has abandoned the base.

[amrchaos]

I'll take the socialist.

Problem is, the fight is going to be one sided in favor of Hillary. Bernie has little support in the Democratic leadership. The only way he can gain that is by showing that Hillary is disconnected with the majority of her party.

On the other hand, this could be the greatest political campaign since Reagan won in 1980.

 

[sarahgop]

extremists are the ones who got us 20 trillion in debt.

Are you saying that every Congress /President we have had since 1980-present has been extremist? Whoa, that's a very all encompassing statement!

With few exceptions.

 

[Stephanie]

extremist. they do love that word until it's a label put on the Democrats, which is where it fits now

 

[Stephanie]

Here's the party who has Abandoned their base. or more like how they don't care if they lie to them if it's for their Political agenda. how sad is that one. you think they'd wake up after Billy Clinton lied right in their face. oh well

Sanders “Bern’s” His Interns: Demands $15 Per Hour Fed Minimum Wage, But Only Pays Interns $12




Via The DC

Democratic presidential hopeful and self-described socialist Bernie Sanders introduced a bill to raise the federal minimum wage to $15 per hour this week.

However, Sanders pays his own interns just $12 per hour, notes the Media Research Center.

On a website entitled “Bernie Sanders, United States Senator for Vermont,” Sanders and his legislative team declare that interns “are an integral part of our Senate operation and contribute greatly to the senator’s work on behalf of Vermont and the nation.”

Just below, in the Frequently Asked Questions section, Sanders flatly explains he pays his own interns “$12 per hour.”

Directly to the left of this statement is the headline “Rally for $15 Minimum Wage.”

You people are too extreme! Most Americans want infrastructure, science, investment into r&d, education and police.

Cut, slash and burn will always fail to win elections.

Hey dumb ass, you will have none of that if we don't get the God damn borrowing under control. HELLO $18 trillion dollars in debt and rising HELLO earth to the math incompetent.

Question
Is it Bernie Sanders or Congress that pay for interns?

 

[amrchaos]

Is the base you referred to the segment that a majority polled by Pew Research found to be "extreme" (52%)? Nationally, the GOP's polling numbers are at it's lowest point in 18 years per a recent poll by Pew Research. The extreme element of the GOP is what is killing the party.

Yes they are, thankfully. Extremists need to be defeated, especially the party that carries signs to rallies that say 'keep government out of my medicare you socialists'.

And the demographics for the GOP are a ticking time bomb about to go off which will end their ability to get elected nationally.

'keep government out of my medicare....'

It is true!!​

 

[BluesLegend]

The GOP establishment ran 40,000 ads in the 2014 election promising to defund Obamacare and Obama's executive amnesty then the first thing they did after the election was fund both of them. They are liars, its possible they are worse liars than Obama.

They have since stymied nearly every conservative amendment and cause. They throw in with Democrats and shit on conservatives pretty frequently. They mock us and bad mouth us. Yet without us they would not be in power.

So why vote for them? Just because Democrats are worse? I'm not sure that's a good enough reason anymore.

 

[kaz]

That is the biggest reason they are going to lose big in 2016. Yes, once again talk radio will rally behind the rubio/bush cabal and blather how essential it is to defeat hillary. Meanwhile, the base of the party is finding it has no representation in govt.

Does the echo between your ears ever becoming maddening to you?

Yes, why I left the party in 1990. They have repeated that formula many times. There was W getting the first Republican Congress and Senate in my lifetime and gong on a spending orgy. At this point I wonder how any Republican can say with a straight face they think Republicans are different than Democrats. Or vice versa as Obama like Clinton said we overused our military while continuing their predecessors strategy. The Republicans and Democrats are frick and frack, Tweedledum and Tweedledee, the Wrigley Gum twins, same thing, different day

you ALL can keep your eyes wide shut. that seems to be the Democrat base best gift to THE PARTY. and insulting people seems to another one

Not always. There are many right wingers in office right now because that was their goal. However, when the results of those goals and the pain that they cause are eventually seen, the country will return to sanity. Any right wing gains are only temporary.

The country is headed for financial disaster with no signs of changing course. This borrowing $18 trillion dollars to live high on the hog and sticking future generations with our bills sickens me. I think future generations stuck with the $50 trillion dollar debt will look back and say man, those people were real assholes.

 

[Stephanie]

this financial disaster we are heading to has been planned. but the citizens in this country is to Lazy to CARE. And both parties has hand in doing it to us.
this is the Democrats favorite and who they follow: Obama is right now putting the finishing nail in our coffins.

I know. The assholes that took a budget surplus and turned it into a crashed economy that will take almost forever to recover from shouldn't be let back into office until they show that they don't want to continue those same failed policies. That's why we elected Obama, to try to straiten out some of those things. It's also why none of the clowns in the clown car have a chance.

No, this is the intelligence level, or lack thereof, of the tea party. Reality is a tough one for conservatives.

Rrriiiigggghhhttttttt, it was only one party who did that, not yours. While the two of you pursue the same tax and spend militaristic policies, your shit doesn't stink. It's all their fault. Everything. So a question. Does the kool-aid give you a buzz, or is it more of a numbing sensation?
