“I am sick of dealing with these mental midgets who would rather stew in a car listening to talk radio and looking up to entertainers as leaders than working hard to get elected candidates in that will stand for what they claim to be for.”

The problem is that we’ve done that. We worked hard and took the House in 2010 and the Senate in 2014. What did we get? Bupkis. The candidates who ran on reining in Barack Obama’s lawless overreach rolled over and gave him what he wanted once they got to Washington.

I’m no fan of Donald Trump, either, but I do understand the base’s intense frustration with the Republican Party that led a lot of folks to conclude that we have to have change and he was the only way to get it.
