My God. Ben Carson just told @brikeilarcnn that the problem with the Trump/Bush comments is that more people don't hear talk like that.

Vote for Ryan's Democratic opponent, whoever that is. Boot him out of Congress, and badly damage any hopes he has to be president anytime soon.

this bannon seems like a nice guy

[ApatheticAustrian]

you are right, RINO tom.

this movement is losing on a global level but in other countries it has still enough power to win through desperation.

in the US it could be too late.

in 2008 john mccain defended obama from the charge of being a muslim arab extremist...and calling him a decent family man.

in 2016 a man tells pence, if hillary wins he will join the revolution....

and pence countered with the clear and sharp answer: "don't say that".

Trump lament on missing Republican supporters: ‘Why aren't they on the shows?'
http://www.politico.com/story/2016/10/trump-missing-republican-supporters-shows-229623

“Sometimes it’s harder to beat our own party than it is to beat the person on the other side,” he said.

He also maintained that House Speaker Paul Ryan should focus on the budget, not criticizing his party’s nominee, and mocked him for losing in 2012 alongside then-GOP nominee Mitt Romney.
Donald Trump is pictured.

“This guy lost four years ago,” he said, “in like a landslide.”

[ApatheticAustrian]

besides....if 2012 is a landslide, this year is going to be armageddon.

Trump is going nuclear on the GOP instead of Hillary because he knows he's going to lose & is going to need someone to blame when it happens

Boehner: Trump not a conservative and ‘barely a Republican’
http://hotair.com/archives/2016/10/11/boehner-trump-not-conservative-barely-republican/

Former House Speaker John Boehner gave Vice News a blunt assessment of Donald Trump saying, “He’s not a conservative. He’s barely a Republican. He kind of became a Republican in order to run.”

Despite this, Boehner adds, “His ideas, when you can get to ’em, are frankly more in the direction than I would want the country to go to than Hillary Clinton.” “While Donald wasn’t my first choice, wasn’t my second choice and for that matter he wasn’t my third choice…but he’s the nominee and I’m going to vote for him,” Boehner says.

Speaking of Trump’s opponent, Boehner tells Vice, “I like Hillary Clinton. I’ve known her for a long time, worked with her. She’s not a bad person, but it’s just…be more of the policies we’ve seen out of the Obama administration.”

Maka Alaska great again!

Alaska senators resign GOP posts after denouncing Trump
http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/presidential-races/300563-senators-resign-gop-posts-after-denouncing-trump

Alaska’s two senators have resigned from leadership posts in their state’s Republican Party after denouncing Donald Trump, according to a new report.

Sens. Lisa Murkowski and Dan Sullivan voluntarily stepped down over the weekend as honorary members of their party’s state central committee, The Associated Press said Wednesday.

The AP said it confirmed the pair’s decision Tuesday with Murkowski campaign spokesman Robert Dillon. Party officers are expected to back party candidates.

The unusual move follows several GOP officers in Alaska resigning their posts last month to publicly back Republican-turned-Libertarian Joe Miller in his bid to replace Murkowski in this fall’s Senate race.

“I cannot and will not support Donald Trump for president,” Murkowski tweeted last Saturday, one day after the tape’s emergence. "He has forfeited the right to be our party’s nominee.”

“I will continue to campaign for Republican candidates across Alaska and the country,” Sullivan said in his own statement after the footage’s emergence.

“Keeping Republicans in the Senate majority is critical to the economic and national security of Alaska and America. As for the White House, Donald Trump should step aside. I will support [Republican vice presidential nominee] Gov. Mike Pence for president.”

Murkowski seems in little trouble of being defeated in her reelection bid.
She boasts a 33-point lead over Miller and two other candidates in the state's Senate race, according to a weekend poll from Moore Information.


lisa still fighting the good fight....and joe miller stays what he always has been...a huuuge loser.
