ORIGINAL: MrRodgers I am not saddened at all for the repubs or their followers. I am much more saddened for their abandonment of [its] former conservative principles and the damage they've brought to the country. Please, would the right and repubs on this board tell me when the republican party and the right in general, actually came through and acted on their small, limited, fiscally responsible, low tax govt. rhetoric ? Easy to cut taxes when the difference can be borrowed. Hardly conservative or responsible. Nixon wasn't, Reagan wasn't and neither Bush came through with W truly butchering a very good opportunity. No excuses, no blathering on how the dems were supposed to have prevented them. They've had their chances and never lived up to their professed conservatism. Trump is just a popular aberration in their corrupt modern psyche. Well....a little (teensy) bit of history....for the fallen..... As a Republican...I can tell you (but for Obama...a bit of an outlier as to history...no more appropriate to blame him for the GR.....than Hoover for the GD!!!)....spending has risen MUCH higher under Republican administrations than under Democrats. (Fact). Where to go from here? Well...they're BOTH fucked up. And....those that blame Democrats for failure....only missed the Republicans who tried to cover for those who preceded them. And here's where I'll add....If you'd ONLY asked me!!!! (I'm in the gawdamned phone book!!!!). I 'feel your pain' brother. Plus, Hoover didn't have the tools, W did and left them...in the box. Like I've written, since Reagan...we're all Keynesians now.
