........ is the reason the IRANIAN conflict went quiet. We needed to witness these elections without a distraction. What POTUS Trump is doing for the GOP is historical. The benefits it will provide America is multi-generational.

Change my mind!!

Removing RINO's and Establishing Order in our Hemisphere. There are those currently in the GOP who have tested him. Now they are witnessing what some of those who tested him have just experienced.

Will they continue to test him or will they take their chances come November?

Trump is a lame duck president that will probably lose all majorities he has within 6 months?

Baws, the liberal and marxists amongst us are speechless. They are scarit. Where is James "Gollum" Carville tonight or better yet, Barry Soetero, when they're needed the most?

Is this what it sounds like when a party ends?

Removing RINO's


Can you define that acronym for me?

I know what it stands for, but I don't understand how it applies here.

MAGA is less Republican than anybody that MAGAs calls RINOs.

Republicans are historically for:

Strong military, American hegemony (at least since WWII)
Smaller government
Lower taxes
More fiscal responsibility
Free trade
Traditional values
(More recently) Strong immigration control
Protecting 2nd Amendment rights
Opposing collectivism and promoting individualism

Now, I get that Republicans in modernity don't follow through on those principles like they campaign on them...I get that. I get that that's where the acronym originated.

But what confuses me is that both Trump and the MAGA base only promote one, maybe two items on that list. Some of the items the MAGA base promotes but Trump doesn't, some Trump does but at least some significant portion of the base doesn't.

So why are MAGA Republicans the real Republicans? What makes that the case?

Republicans for the last 20 years - Im speaking before Trump - Referring to Mccain, Bush, etc - have basically let the country swing so far left we can't recognize our own assholes at this point. The dems were playing for keeps while the republicans played nice and tried to be there friend. This is exactly how we ended up with Trump. People were sick and tired of pussy arse republicans that had no balls and rolled over. Watching Republicans apologize when they were called racist - watching them bend over backwards to please the MSM. People were absolutly sick of it. Trump despite all his flaws and he has plenty - was the first republican that had any balls - the first to really tell the media to go frick themselves - the first to push for fixes we all want - more border security - voter ID - etc. He's not a perfect fix - no one would ever be a perfect fix - but hes changed the GOP for the better. The GOP better learn to fricking fight or we will vote more of these pussies out.


Texas you are up next

You somewhat glossed over a major branch of the Republican party. You listed traditional values, and I'm guessing that's a huge umbrella for the anti-abortion and religious right. Some of that group aren't fiscal conservatives.

The Republican party historically hasn't been unified to support competing interests like the Democrats. How else can you explain the LGBTQ community supporting Islamic communities that kill gays? How can you be the party for women and support men pretending to be women taking athletic scholarships from real women?

That means everything from people who know what a woman is to people who admit that abortion is killing a baby to people who get and stay married and have children.

O.k. So? It's one thing to not support every item on that list. It's another to support almost none of them. If the people you are referring to support almost none of them, then I would agree. They don't really have much historical claim to being "real" Republicans either.

Yes, because historically Republicans have embraced individualism, not collectivism and traditional values, not anything goes.

The foundational principles of the Democratic Party in 2026 are:

Marxism (and not just fiscal Marxism, but cultural, racial, gender, etc.)
Intersectionality
Collectivism
Post-Modernism
And possibly the biggest one of all, anti-Judeo-Christian traditional values

So does Islam oppose traditional Judeo-Christian values? Yes? Check.
Does feminism? Check

They can support as many "competing" interests as they need to as long as those interests oppose those values.

So it sounds like you understand the issue as kind of a single issue.

The culture war.

It sounds like to you the actual public policies (on abortion, spending, taxes, shrinking government, etc.) are irrelevant. Whoever doesn't care if the media calls them racist is the more conservative politician. Right?

He’s shrinking the party by doing away with anyone who dissents for any reason at all or tries to hold him to his campaign promises. Boebert, MTG, Tucker, Massie, etc. The GOP is headed for a bloodbath in November and they fully deserve it. Sad to see, because time is running short for this country.

Trump is for almost all of these things and, unlike RINO's, didn't just campaign on them. He's actually trying to address them.

RINO's never wanted to solve issues like immigration and the size of government, because they would lose their platform to campaign on every 2 or 6 years.

Let's look at your list.

Military - Trump has brought standards backs to the military, eliminated DEI in the military and restored the resources they need. The left was all but trying to defund the military.

Small Government - Trump has consistently tried to shrink the government. Remember DOGE? The left wants government to increase indefinitely.

More Fiscal Responsibility - This is the only thing you can even remotely get Trump on. He has raised, now lowered, the deficit, which is unfortunate. But he's still being more fiscally responsible than the left would be.

Free Trade - Unlimited Free Trade is one of the worst things to happen to the country. I'm not saying eliminate free trade, but there does need to be restriction for certain countries and industries in the form of tariffs. The rest of the world has used free trade against the U.S., and have taken advantage of an uneven playing field. Trump is trying to level that playing field and I support him in his efforts.

Traditional Values - Trump is banning DEI and getting trans kids out of sports. Trump supports traditional values, whether it's the traditional values of the U.S., or traditional family values, more than the left ever would.

Strong Immigration Control - RINO's never truly cared about immigration. Their business buddies wanted the cheap slave level labor, so they looked the other way. Immigration is still one of my top concerns, but Trump has effectively eliminated illegal immigration into the U.S. Now the remaining challenging is getting those here illegally, out.

Protecting 2nd Amendment Rights - Again, Trump support the 2nd Amendment. Democrats would strip it away tomorrow if they could.

Promoting Individualism - Trump is the example of individualism and building an business empire with his own hands. RINO's tried to destroy Trump in 2016 and again in 2020, and Trump with his own determination, stopped them. Trump believes in individualism far more than RINO's or the left.

So out of all your criteria of "traditional Conservative", the only one Trump has not succeeded at is fiscal responsibility/balancing the budget. That's the only one you can get him on. But through budget cuts and right sizing government, it's not been for lack of trying. Trump literally thrives at everything else you mentioned.

A bloodbath for the GOP, while not good, isn't the worst thing. RINO's need to know their time is up and we need to do what the left is doing. Getting fresh blood in there who actually represent modern Conservatism/MAGA.

If that means Conservatives/Republicans take some licks this year, so be it.

The left took their licks in 2024 and realized they had to move to the left and get their "blue dog democrats" out. The right needs to do the same.
