    Rick Wilson, former Republican political strategist:



    He also wrote this book:

    The title is quite revealing considering the period we're going through...

    His position is simple: Trump inserted himself into the GOP like a parasite and destroyed the founding principles of the party, such as fiscal responsibility, balance budget, rule of law personnal discipline and integrity.

    Very true. The GOP has become the Trump party. Even if he wins in November, which I think he will, Republicans will pay a heavy price down the road.

    Liberals said the same thing in 2010, remember how that turned out? You'd think liberals would learn...

    This cycle could put the party in the wilderness, but the most telling notion Wilson conveyed at the end of the video was our representatives are willing to do anything to hold onto their jobs.

    That careerism is a cancer on our system.

    Meanwhile most Democrats have been there far longer than most Republicans and many have little experience outside if government. And they seem piss poor at that

    Well, lets hope it's not dead as I don't think most will like this new Democratic Party developing. It's nothing like the Party of my Father, my five siblings or mine. I'm not sure what it is anymore.

    Hillary is a shoe in...... lol

    ANTIFA and other domestic terrorist groups on the far left have declared war on the United States and it will be the Republicans who step up and save the country.

    Again.

    The Title is dumb - and this fellows position is stupid.

    Destruction of the founding principles/ rule of law and lack Fiscal Responsibility and integrity existed long before Trump hit the scene.

    Trump is not the problem - he is however a symptom of the problem.

    When you have to be a Trump doormat to be accepted in today's Trump party, there will be nobody to take on leadership when Trump is gone.

    Trump was a reaction to the ineffective and obsolete RINOs who were impotent and frightened.

    You used to have to be an "Obama doormat" to be accepted in the Democratic Party, and it survived just fine, even though it moved on from Obamaism after he left office.

    Both parties, and politicians in general, are straight garbage.
