Eric Holder named to lead effort to destroy GOP...

[Jedidiah]

I'm not sure why the left gloats at the fact the GOP is fragmenting, as if that's an unintended victory for them. This is what the Trump supporters wanted and why he has their ardent support. Let the establishment crash and burn is the war cry of the right. The Dems were on the verge of fracturing due to corruption, but the Dem voters are either apparently too dumb, too weak, too ignorant, or all the above to see how the DNC establishment totally screwed them over and then continues to use them as useful idiots.

This is not what Trump supporters wanted. What they wanted was the GOP behind Trump. The crash and burn result is just the result of the Republican party choosing to support any establishment candidate, even if it turns out to be Hillary. They have to know that dividing the party is a guarantee of the other party winning. That was their preference over an outsider, that was their preference over any real change in the status quo.

Not all, but some, if not most. At least that's one of the main reasons I hear in the alt-mediasphere where most Trump supporters dwell. The fact the GOP is in disarray is a very satisfying reality to them. But the alt-media is where most of the people that don't hold any firm allegiance to either party seem to dwell, so they could care less how much this destroys the establishment rhinos.

Both parties are gilty of gerrymandering. This seems to just be another atempt at it, albeit on a larger scale. It's unfortunat but not surprising. Wile I wish House districts wer drawn by a nonpartisan agency, it's not like gerrymandering wil succesfuly destroy a party on its own.

the inevitable humiliations of Trump leading their party-- to name just one issue, Trump's comments about punishing women who get abortions not only goes against the pre-Roe standard, but the efforts of many pro-life activists since Roe and especially the perspective of the younger leaders in the pro-life movement who will be carrying the standard in future decades.

Some of Trump's comments on abortion disagrees with mainstream position



Humiliation!!!

It's screwed up kind of projection, but not quite projection

How to describe this kind of logic:

"Dem party is fragmenting but its okay cos GOP is fragmenting too!!!!'

Also seems like there is generation divide: older Trump supporters want Trump to redeem GOP so it's no longer establishment playground and money cow.

Younger ones more likely to say '[censored] them, burn it all down!!!'

From you that is a compliment. From someone else it might or might not be.
