David Brooks: GOP under Trump is harming every cause it claims to serve

Educated conservatives like Brooks, George Will, Jennifer Rubin all agree that Trump is a disaster.

http://thehill.com/homenews/media/36...e-it-claims-to

“First, he asked the party to swallow the idea of a narcissistic sexual harasser and a routine liar as its party leader,” Brooks writes. “Then he asked the party to accept his comprehensive ignorance and his politics of racial division. Now he asks the party to give up its reputation for fiscal conservatism. At the same time he asks the party to become the party of Roy Moore, the party of bigotry, alleged sexual harassment and child assault.”

Oh, that is sad. We should fill the next one up for him. He'd love it until he found out the majority were there to boo him off the stage....

This truck drove around the hall when Trump was in there praising the Alabama pervert.

Seeing as her dad called her a "fine piece of ass" on the Howard Stern Show, she's probably speaking from experience.

A Fake News War has broken out between Dave Weigel of WaPo and The Moron.
Apparently this picture in Post #1022 was taken before Trump's speech. Weigel has apologized but now Trump wants him fired, not realizing that the picture posted by Weigel was on his personal, not WaPo account.

What a petty little twit.

Ambassador Haley on Trump’s accusers: ‘They should be heard’
Quote:
Haley's comments, made on CBS's “Face the Nation,” diverged from the White House position on the more than a dozen women who have accused Trump of misconduct. Spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders has said that the White House's position is that the women are lying and that the American people settled the issue by electing Trump despite the accusations.
This must mean she is looking to resign.
I nominate Kellyanne as her replacement.

If one lies all the time, then to deflect the truth, you need to accuse others of lying too, all the time. Except the truth is not in the middle.

Most logical interpretation.

I was thinking for a bit after reading your response and it occurred to me that all career women working in the Trump administration will be better off resigning now rather than take their chances with their careers. Otherwise they will be tarnished for life politically for tacitly supporting a habitual groper and grabber of women. I was just doing my job may not cut it with the public.

Naw, there are and will remain plenty of jobs for them in the GOP, or any of the hundreds of hypocritical tax-exempt Evangelical organizations. There are millions of Whells out there, who will continue to blindly support these organizations, no matter how corrupt.
