Voters gave this country a Republican President, a Republican House and a Republican Senate and the results were pretty much business as usual. \u00a0Then voters gave the country a Democratic President, a Democratic House and a Democratic Senate.\u00a0 The results were spectacularly bad.\u00a0 In 2010 Republicans won back control of the House. Nothing changed.\u00a0 \u00a0In 2014 Republicans won back control of the Senate. Nothing changed. The Republican establishment continues to compromise with Democrats, terrified of what it considers to be the extremist views of the conservative movement. The cultured elite views conservative values as delusional and out of touch with reality.<\/p>\n<p>Along came Donald Trump and he ventured where no man dared go before.\u00a0 He stood up for conservative values without compromise.\u00a0 He absolutely refused to be intimidated by political correctness.\u00a0 He said things the establishment in both parties considered to be outrageous.\u00a0 To the shock and horror of the Republican establishment, the more they attacked Trump the higher he rose in the polls.\u00a0 The main stream media despises Trump, but they love the ratings they get from covering him.\u00a0 Trump was probably on his way to winning the nomination and the Presidency.<\/p>\n<p>But something changed overnight.\u00a0 The Republican establishment suddenly realized this had become a two man race between Donald Trump and Ted Cruz.\u00a0 At that point, both the Republican establishment and Donald Trump showed their real colors.\u00a0 The Republican establishment started to embrace Trump because they realized that they could make a deal with him. The Republican establishment does not like Donald Trump, but they absolutely fear Ted Cruz.<\/p>\n<p>Trump quickly responded by welcoming their support.\u00a0 It probably seemed like a good idea at the time.\u00a0 But a funny thing happened on the way to the Forum.\u00a0 To the shock of both Donald Trump and the Republican establishment; conservatives in this country actually believe in their principles and they decided enough was enough.\u00a0 They are now in full revolt.<\/p>\n<p>Leading conservatives joined together to speak with one voice to the <strong><em>\u201cbase.\u201d\u00a0 <\/em><\/strong>They are warning that Donald Trump is not a true conservative and that if he becomes the next President of the United States he will quickly morph from the <strong><em>\u201craging defender\u201d <\/em><\/strong>to the <strong><em>\u201cmaster of the deal.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> The National Review devoted an entire article to exposing Donald Trump.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nationalreview.com\/article\/430137\/donald-trump-conservative-movement-menace\">http:\/\/www.nationalreview.com\/article\/430137\/donald-trump-conservative-movement-menace<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Trump responded by trashing the National Review. \u00a0That was predictable.\u00a0 But this is much more than a single editorial from an irrelevant magazine.\u00a0 The list of the conservative voices joining in the warning about Donald Trump is simply astonishing.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Glenn Beck, David Boaz, L.

Reno, Thomas Sowell, and Cal Thomas.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When you combine this with Rush Limbaugh commenting on how the Republican establishment has embraced Donald Trump this is nothing short of a seismic event.\u00a0 If Donald Trump still wins the nomination after this, I believe that there will be a wholesale exodus of conservatives from the Republican Party.\u00a0 I wouldn\u2019t even rule out a strong third party challenge.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, Donald Trump may decide to run his own independent campaign.\u00a0 He has to be seething with anger about this and Donald does not always respond rationally when he is pissed off. \u00a0Almost anything is possible.<\/p>\n<p>This is nothing short of a call for a full scale conservative rebellion.\u00a0 We will soon learn just how much influence these people really have.\u00a0 I suspect it is much stronger than anyone in the Republican establishment or the main stream media realizes.<\/p>\n<p>As for me, I think it is about time. I am sick and tired of the Republican establishment.\u00a0 In 1952 the Pittsburgh Pirates lost 112 games.\u00a0 General Manager Branch Rickey told his star player Ralph Kiner he would have to take a pay cut.\u00a0 When Kiner complained, Rickey said the following:<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>\u201cWe could have finished last without you.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Exactly. \u00a0What is the point of electing Republican establishment politicians if nothing ever changes? In addition, Republican establishment candidates are famous for losing elections they should have won. \u00a0We can get similar results without them.<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Revelation 3:16<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cSo, because you are lukewarm&#8211;neither hot nor cold&#8211;I am about to spit you out of my mouth.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>TDM<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Donald Trump soared to the top of the polls by having his finger on the pulse of voters.\u00a0 People are seething with anger at the establishment in both parties.\u00a0 The anger has been building up for a long time.
