Quote of the Day - Erick Erickson

"The American media used to report the news. Now it wants to shape the news and be a part of the news. Jim Acosta was not content to ask a question. He had to argue a point and make himself part of the story. He is not alone in this and Jim is actually one of the better reporters out there.

The press is worried about Donald Trump’s systematic attempts to undermine press credibility. I would submit he is far less effective at undermining the press’s credibility than the press is itself."

"Smashing his facade of legitimacy”

"Prepare yourselves, because if the resistance movement has its way, they will create an ungovernable situation for President Trump. Obviously, their game plan is anarchy and carrying it out is a seditious movement. All you need to do is look around and see their efforts to disrupt and destroy. What kind of movement is this? Is it time to be scared for our Republic?" asks Allen West

The Trump Resistance

"The protestors tying up traffic, smashing windows, and disrupting local government meetings are only making people mad at them. Republicans should not yield and may very well reap a reward for not giving in to the tantrums," says Erick Erickson.

I, personally, am sick of these anarchists and dangerous crybabies who use Facebook.

Liberals, America's Obstructionists

These are the great big mouths that have said we need to "bring Americans together."  "Let's get on the same play book."  It's never going to happen. Can you even imagine socialists and capitalists on the same page?

The top Democrat in the Senate plans on blocking Trump's choice of a Supreme Court justice at every opportunity. He will fight it to his last breath even if Trump were to appoint Oliver Wendell Holmes or Earl Warren, raising them from the dead.

Democrats, the country's obstructionists, plan on stopping Donald Trump by whining and just being a pain for liberalism, Obamacare, killing babies in the womb, etc.  Democrats are the party of government and want a government that takes care of you from cradle to grave.

"If Democrats drive up public dislike of government because of its incompetence and inability to get anything done, that only helps the GOP and conservatism."

A Cry Wolf Moment - by Erick Erickson

"This too is a cry wolf moment. The press has long taken a protect the precious view of the Obama Administration. Supposedly objective reporters have deflected and defended the various blunders of the Obama Administration while dismissing any criticism leveled by Republicans as partisan or racist."

Erick Erickson's open letter to the Press Corp, a must read.

Liberals are Blind

These people {Trump haters and liberals]  have, in their moral relativism, developed a shameful blindness to true evil. They have developed such a deep hatred for their fellow Americans with whom they have political disagreements that they will cheer on a man with actual blood on his hands while drawing equivalence to American politicians they did not like.

A Never Trump advocate has changed his mind

I never thought I would see the day when Erick Erickson changed his mind on Trump but it's not the endorsement I would have liked to have read...but I'll take it.

Reconsidering My Opposition to Trump

By Erick Erickson | Tuesday, September 20, 2016
The polling has drawn ever closer. More and more people wonder if those of us who are NeverTrump should finally yield knowing that we can beat Hillary Clinton. I am in an odd position. I am mindful that should Trump win, the Republican establishment will blame people like me for giving rise to Trump. Likewise, I know if Trump loses, the Republican establishment will blame people like me for giving rise to Trump and Trump supporters will blame people like me for his loss. I suppose I should say not that I'm in an odd position, but that I am in a no-win position.With Donald Trump's rise in the polls and the increasingly competitive nature of the race, it is time to reconsider my opposition to Trump. After all, I view Hillary Clinton's candidacy as anti-American.

Honest Praise for Donald Trump. He Has Seen the Light on Immigration Reform

Please read Erick Erickson's article and what he has to say about Trump "seeing the light" on immigration. He also is for the wall.

Erickson says, "Like Trump, I agree that they should not get citizenship. But like Trump, I also agree the GOP, which is the party of families, should not be in the business of separating families."

Quote of the Day - Erick Erickson - On Fixing Washington

"Five black robed masters should not be able to redefine a multi-thousand year old institution because it makes less than 10% of the population happy. One President should not be able to direct an education bureaucracy to encourage gender neutral bathrooms in local schools across America.

The bureaucracy itself should not be able to redefine a mud puddle as a navigable waterway over which to exercise regulation of a person’s backyard. And no congressman should be able to direct a vanity building project back in his home state. The fight for the Presidency should not mean as much as it does because the Presidency itself should not mean as much as it now does.

The way to fix Washington is to force it to surrender power back to fifty states and their citizens."
