Emerald you nailed it again! That "flamboyant Manhattan real estate developer" figured out how to expose the hundreds of Congressional and Executive branch charlatans who had been disguising themselves as "conservatives" for years while quietly letting the radical Left DemoCommies get away with just about everything that hardened their power as long as GOPe palms were well-greased.... Now we know that "drain the swamp" actually meant lowering the murky swamp water level so that all of its miserable slimy occupants were exposed to sunlight!

Great piece that not enough R's will see. I started asking what the GOP stood for when Dole was nominated.

All the world is a stage inside the Beltway, Emerald. DC UniParty. Pork barrel spending. Shifting the deck chairs on the Titanic. The iceberg is the $34T ( and counting ) national debt. Thank you RINO'S. The gonads are in 45's camp. Mitch and Cornyn (disliked in Texas) know it. They are at the WH raiding the Diapered Muppet 's diaper supply closet.

DC diarrhea plagues the two faced RINO'S.

We are in one hell of a mess, because we have all been lazy for the last 15 years and let our elected officials run all over us and steal us blind. We are all guilty to a degree so we must stick together to throw those responsible in jail or to hell . At this point the way I see it NO one can be trusted, so I plan to fully support DJT and be ready for one serious fight. The Democrats are in too deep to turn back so we should look out for all hell to break loose around November. Folks if you aren't armed you better get busy, it's going to get ugly. God help us and bless the USA

It appears that I will be enjoying some turtle soup this week.

By now, it's obvious that GOP is an acronym for Gang Of Parasites, whose only reason for not calling themselves Democrats is because they want to keep the two-party illusion going.

“Why did Glitch McConnell lead a revolt of GOP politicians against their own voters the last few years?”

Because he was protecting his wife’s family’s Asian based companies called the Foremost Group and EDG Capital. He is directly or indirectly paid by both so F the American People.

All democratic socialism (which is where the Uniparty is headed) is just communism in a party dress. As early as the 80's, true conservatives warned this was happening and the middle class still fell asleep and snoozed through the destruction of small government and fiscal responsibility until they abruptly woke and realized their way of life was gone. Once freedom has been destroyed, it's nearly impossible to get back. Look at the Soviet Union. Russians still don't know how to be truly free and continue to encourage "strong Russian leaders," a.k.a. dictators. I'm truly afraid we've waited too long and we're shadow boxing Godzilla at this point. I pray every night I'm wrong, but I'm the first to admit that even if God gave us another in a million chances, we'd fritter it away as a fallen people. Remember the source of your strength, Christians. We're going to need it.

Great article, keep up the good work. I sent to all the GOPers I know.

Here's my simple political philosophy as a Republican: To crush my enemies, to drive them before me, and to hear the lamentations of their women. 😃

No more reaching across the damn aisle. But that's not what they're doing today. The trying to crush us. For power, for profit? For every evil thing, most likely. Enough!

Donald Trump is not only by comparison an honest man, he IS an honest man!

You tell ‘em, Emerald! I don’t care how imperfect Trump is, he’s the only president since Reagan who actually cares about this country and its people. The worthlessness of the Republicans is stupefying. All most of them care about is using their positions to get rich.

Love this piece. Thanks for your perseverance, principles, and insight.

". . . because he was, by comparison, an honest man. "

Love you, Emerald, but he's not an honest man "by comparison". He IS an honest man. In many ways, that's been his greatest failing as a politician.

Thank you Emerald for an excellent bottom line piece. Rotten to the core. A great early 20th Century theologian once said “you can’t reform rotten wood,” about the mainline Presbyterian Church. Hundred years later he’s looking good! I think he would say the same about our old Deep State and two party system too, which is why we need to clean house and rebuild!! Good thing Trump likes renovating and building things. Termites beware!!!

Emerald, you have got to get out of DC. I think politics are over.

It is hard to see when you are in the cesspool.
