Senate Republicans are warning that this week’s Democratic victories in Kentucky, Virginia and Pennsylvania should serve as a “wake-up call” for President Trump and the rest of the GOP heading into 2020. [More]In other words, swamp things want to stifle the very concerns that got Trump elected.
In Kentucky we see the open borders Libertarians gloating for helping the Democrat. In Virginia, we've seen the demographic shift. Pennsylvania is doing the same.
And funny thing about "Cheap Labor" Lindsey, with his insistence that Trump's style is what's at issue...
Good thing this has nothing to do with that "single issue." Anybody hear it brought up in D.C. by the Saviors?
I am a libertarian and have had major issues with the LP ever since the party went off the rails after picking Bob Barr in 2008 for presidential candidate. I really don't see the Kentucky LP as gloating, but the GOP has a VERY bad habit of believing that they are somehow entitled to all libertarian votes. That being said, what happened in Virginia is very similar in circumstances to the Bob Barr house seat loss in 2003: redistricting that favored the democrats, the GOP not attracting more voters, and finally, libertarians being used as a scapegoat for the loss.
ReplyDeleteSubsequently, the GOP told libertarians, "if you don't like the Republican party, then change it from within. quit working against us". That is what happened in 2012 when Ron Paul ran for president. He was pulling in record crowds to his rallies, but it became apparent the suggestion of "change it from within" was just bullshit. With help from the loyal opposition in the media and all sorts of underhanded games played during the state caucuses the GOP got it's pre-determined candidate- Mitt Romney. And the rest is history.
