Mostly swamp creatures who thought they could mold the policies of the Trump administration, and left in frustration when they realized that they could not.

This is especially true for former members of the national security/foreign policy departments, whose objections against Trump always boil down to "I'm really butthurt that Trump didnt start new wars."

Trump has the highest approval rating among registered Republicans since Ronald Reagan. Compared to the rank and file, the nevertrumpers and lincoln project types are vastly overrepresented among the party leadership and its operatives.


guy, 4 yrs, and an exploded deficit pre-covid. you arent a republican. trump isnt a republican. the base that follows him are not republican. there is nothing conservative in the way they think or act. trump has expanded the government, trump has consolidated government power, installed loyalists and lobbyists instead of working towards efficiencies. everything about trump and his administration is exactly what you right wing retards were scared of in a left/dem president.

literally no one is surprised - and not a single trumptard would ever admit this is concerning.

just look at blackx's ad hominems and rationalisations in order to downplay the danger of having a completely unhinged dotard as president...

It's almost as if Romney-Ryan-style "fiscal conservatism" has always been more of a project of party elites backed by libertarian donors like the Kochs, rather than a heartfelt wish of the base. :rolleyes:

i find it hilarious that anyone who speaks against trump should be "punished" in his own words.

where is the right wingers of this section?? certainly getting fired up and gearing up to overthrow a tyrannical gov official? trump is the actual personnification of what they were scared of in a left wing candidate.

so when they first pushed this story, they made the author out to be a high level top official, right?
And instead its some no-name bureaucrat?


I think the exact wording was "senior official." I'd argue that Chief of Staff qualifies since they control what the Secretary actually sees.

never-trump republicans.

you act as if trump is a republican - him and his follower base are not republicans.


They definitely are Republicans.
