It should come as no surprise that Bush-era Republicans are frustrated with the middle class “America First” crowd that supports President Trump and the MAGA movement. The cocktail party GOPe have always looked down their noses at the base of supporters; now they report -via Reuters- that they will abandon the Republican party.
(Reuters) – Dozens of Republicans in former President George W. Bush’s administration are leaving the party, dismayed by a failure of many elected Republicans to disown Donald Trump after his false claims of election fraud sparked a deadly storming of the U.S. Capitol last month.
These officials, some who served in the highest echelons of the Bush administration, said they had hoped that a Trump defeat would lead party leaders to move on from the former president and denounce his baseless claims that the November presidential election was stolen.
But with most Republican lawmakers sticking to Trump, these officials say they no longer recognize the party they served. Some have ended their membership, others are letting it lapse while a few are newly registered as independents, according to a dozen former Bush officials who spoke with Reuters. (read more)
Trump exposes more creeps.
YAY!!!!
This is where I would put Snoopy and Woodstock dancing……if I could…..
What took you so long? Spare us the drama and leave already!
The Bush-Cheney-McConnell-Kinzinger-Lincoln Project GOP establishment neocons are hated by the 75+ million Trump voters more than Bin Laden on 9/12/2001!!
I am still having problems with this site. Doesn’t let me see all the comments unless a log in again. Unpredictable. Ugh
Clear your cache.
My suggestion for the Bush (be)leaguers for their new party
EarWhigs
Just so there is no confusion with the earliers Whigs…
Very. Funny.?
Let’s enjoy the moment but not forget that these evil frauds are experienced deceivers and schemers.
Never let down our guard on what they may be scheming for their next real moves to maintain their private siphons into the national treasury.
It can be carved in stone that the NeverTrump RINOs absolutely hate our God-fearing, 2nd Amendment-loving, flag-waving patriotic guts to their very rotten core. I don’t think for one second that these elitists are simply walking away.
Something smells like sewage with this “announcement”….
Are they joining the communist party instead? The same type did not like Reagan either. But that’s fine. It will save us having to start a Patriot Party if they go.
I doubt it. But I would not put it past them to be scheming to re-take the GOP at some point in the future. After all, they consider it “theirs”. THEY built it. THEY financed it via donations they bought with favorable legislation. THEY ran it for many decades.
Don’t believe me? Just ask them…but not publicly…
I agree GB.
Never, ever take anything these creeps do or say at face value.
Ever.
if i was them – I’d join Biden before the rounding up and extermination begins.
I don’t think they need to be that overt. JoeBama Xiden’s handlers already know the tremendous assistance the RINOs have provided them….
the russian defector talks of democrats and republicans..
he said dems were stupid and easy to control, but what the russians really wanted were Church going republicans, peopel that could look one way, but be the complete opposite.
What a great idea !! Unfortunately, as we’ve learned, they’re usually all talk and no action.
Maybe they think when they take they $$ with them that we will fail. They had their heads in the sand when we had more donors than they had!
Yes!
But unfortunately, they had Dominion on their side…..
This represents the far better strategy than trying to start a new party from scratch. Encourage all the national level RINOs to charge off into the sunset. Primary every elected RINO. Participate in local and state Republican meetings. Be vocal in favor of MAGA, Main Street and Middle Class issues. Work to expel or disempower the RINOS and corrupt CoC operatives from party politics control positions.
does this mean that Pierre Delecto and Paul Ryan will be leaving?
Yes…either voluntarily or involuntarily. We’ll be nice and give them a choice.
What about Susan Collins? She’s there until 2027 – the middle of President Trump’s 2nd Term!!
They are FIRED!
I also don’t TRUST this very public move.
Remember the “Bushies” did much to undermine REAGAN, and were called “Rockefeller Republicans” by US, back in the 60’s, when Romney Sr was a prominent one, very similar to his offspring.
They may be trying to forestall the development of a true Patriot party, by having a FEW, prominent, publically recognised members withdraw from the party, while leaving a great many RINO opperatives embedded in the party hierarchy, to undermine our attempts to “take over” the Republican party.
How TPTB deal with a radical movement;
1) IGNORE IT, because ANY recognition, gives it legitimacy
2)When it grows too big to ignore, SUPPRESS it.
Use LE, social shaming, ridicule, any means neccesary.
3) When THAT no longer works, ABSORB it, and co-opt it to TPTB’s ends.
It was ever thus, and I respectfully suggest that those thinking this means the enemy is willingly conceding ground, and surrendering to us are either woefully naive, or in on it.
To me this is only increased encouragement, to start a seperate Patriot party, and refuse to be drawn in to their sucker move.
Its a TRAP. These people have had control of the Republican party all along. To believe they are willingly going to surrender the tremendous power and wealth without a knock down drag out fight to the death, is sheer foolishness.
IMHO,..it shows how scared they are, thats ALL.
Exactly correct. Agree completely. Dutchman is RIGHT as usual.
And I agree re Dutchman.
I agree Dutchman.
These guys are not really “going” anywhere.

FAKE NEWS.
Manipulative news, intending to manipulate YOU, the “deplorable dumb Trump voter who still watches Fox.”
It’s “the Republicans are a party for the Trump voters” LIE. LIE. LIE.
The Bush era republicans are the GLOBALISTS. They own the republican party.
The republican party kicked Trump and his voters OUT.
And now, with McCarthy’s visit to Trump, and with this RIDICULOUS news article, they are trying to pretend that no one was kicked out, that republicans are America First.
LIE. It’s an obvious manipulation story. Expect it to be pushed BIG by Fox News, that evil manipulator of the conservative mind.
Propaganda. Battling to manipulate you. Could even be a story planted by the CIA or military intelligence psyop.
Everyone should know by now that military intelligence puts themes into Hollyweird movies to influence the population.
Operation Mockingbird. Look it up on Duckduckgo.
It’s a “free country” where the government manipulates what its citizens believe, to HURT THEM.
Same with the Covid LIES.
Bye
Good! Go! Leave! Like Cuomo says… “Who cares?”
Maybe we won’t have to get a third party if enough of these squishes quit.
There are real patriots who are willing to take your place!
Bush cronies leaving the party? I’m all for it. Look what they gave us:
Endless middle east wars and occupations, the patriot act, more goverment agencies (DHS), Rinos who support amnesty, etc
Don’t forget the “Director of National Intelligence”. Boy how that worked out.
Finally can we finally say goodbye to Karl Rove?
Funkle, we couldn’t be so lucky.
They are Neocons. Not conservatives. Never were. But they didn’t mind sending our children off to war to make themselves even richer.
Oh no do you think if we promise to never think for ourselves or put the well-being of ourselves and our children first, they’ll agree to stay so we can bask in their superiority from a respectful distance?
LuLu that made me LOL!
Don’t let the door hit you in the arse, as “they” say.
Let them leave the party. They are not real Republicans anyway.
Adios Mo Fo’s…
OMG They’re “dismayed!” Whatever shall we do to make them feel better?
To me this is a taste of their own medicine and they haven’t even gotten a full dose. I held my nose and voted for both Bushes, McCain and Romney. Knowing the lesser of two evils is still evil I voted because I was made promises that were never kept. Sadly however, I owe them a debt of gratitude because without their disastrous leadership we would not have elected President Trump. I think their reward should be a lovely world cruise with a Karl rove whiteboard in every cabin. Bon voyage!
Harry Truman’s famous quote when a reporter asked him why he wasn’t pushing a popular Republican election platform said: In an election between a Republican and a Republican the Republican will win every time. You’d think that the RINOS would have learned that by now!’
“…Donald Trump after his false claims of election fraud sparked a deadly storming of the U.S. Capitol last month.”
“…the former president… his baseless claims that the November presidential election was stolen.”
So happy that Reuters has no agenda against PRESIDENT Trump… /
Buh Bye now, don’t let the door hit ya……
I wonder who they think will care? Other, that is, than other deep staters?
Go! Don’t let the door slam you in the buttsky
I JUST DON’T UNDERSTAND??? How does destroying President Trump and instead installing a lunatic fringe cabal of Bolsheviks like Schumer, Schiff and Nadler along with Minority Race hustles like AOC, BLM and ANTIFA plus Climate Change Nazis benefit RINOS like Bush, Barr and McConnell????
Exactly. It’s a psyop delivered by your government.
CIA.
Or whoever sent this into the GARBAGE “news.”
It’s obviously a fake story.
Just like everything in the garbage news, it is INTENDED TO MANIPULATE YOU.
I hear you, Joe…..they truly are a shit show….holding Trump out as the evildoer…and those heinous Dems as the non issue….
We truly are living a ‘look over here’ moment….as the magician does.
We. Can. Not. Fall. For. It.
Cali Joe,
I’m really digging your comments tonight!
Hallelujah! Good riddance!
I voted for GW once, the second time. I was a fool for the 9-11 lies. Political parties mean nothing to me any longer. I WILL be part of a movement to destroy this invertebrate party of manipulators. To turn it into a Patriot party, that puts AMERICA FIRST.
Who cares? And good riddance!
I sincerely hope that these jerks shot themselves in the foot and make themselves irrelevant.
That would be nice Karma
Republicans are leaving the party because of the old guard Republicans.
Nice when the trash takes itself out.
Now if we can just get Schumer, Schiff and Nadler to go back to Russia where they came from and lead another Bolshevik revolution America will be in great shape!
I don’t wish them on people who have suffered enough already… but they should have to live in their own destroyed neighborhood somehow. Send them to Baltimore or NYC
LOL cracked me right up! haha
“that they will abandon the Republican party.
Oh goody. We might not have to start a new party after all. HAHAHAHAHA!!!
Bush (Cheney Admin) kept the planes busy ferrying back body bags with US soldiers in them in the fake WMD war with Iraq. Good bye
Bush, Cheney and McConnell’s policy for America is INVADE EVERYONE and INVITE EVERYONE!
I despise the GOPe. The Democrats are the enemy but they acknowledge the are the enemy. Communists, Anti-Americans.
The GOPe – Bush, Romney, McConnel, P. Ryan, Rubio are traitors who will stab you in the back. I will not support any of these people in the future. They will sell out the country for money for money and power.
My dream is that Trump runs against Rubio in the Florida 2022 primary and crushes him, and then destroys Nicki Haley in the 2024 primary.
One thing is that Trump sure knows these GOPers a lot better. They most likely have a lot of baggage which their constituents don’t know about.
So my withdrawal from the Republican Party, changing my voter affiliation to “Independent” was premature, it appears. Great – now I’m with the GOPe snobs. I will change it back, I guess, as soon as I’m able. Drat!
Isn’t Texas open primaries?
No you sent a message, come back like me when you know for sure the globalist and enemies of this nation are purged from the GOP. You can re join prior to the primaries if needed to vote for real Patriots running as Republicans.
I view this as a GOOD thing.
Don’t let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya!
Before we get too excited, name more than three Republicans who stood up for the President on Jan 6–and not for show, like Ted Cruz. Does this list of Rinos leaving include Ronna McDaniel, Mitt Romney, Paul Ryan, any of our week-kneed senators and representatives who stood by and let the election get stolen? If not, this only means that the GOP is dying on both sides. Sad way to honor President Lincoln’s legacy.
Trump has more power now than when he was in the WH. Well look at that…
A life long Republican I disavowed the party too, in 2015 and registered Independent. I, called our local headquarters and explained my position, it was thank you and don’t let the door hit you on the way out. Why did I leave the RP? Because of their coordinated attack on Candidate Donald Trump. Please let all those Bushies go elsewhere, I did. Let them join the Dems. I, will recognize my enemy.
“I totally understand why people are frustrated and want to leave the party. I’ve had that feeling for 4 years,” DeFrancis said.
But she said it’s critical the party unite around Republican principles such as limited government, personal responsibility, free enterprise and a strong national defense.”
Keep your pious claims and stow it. We gave you everything you “claim” the party stands for with President Trump then you Vote for Biden. Unbelievable, the hubris of these people. Leave, leave, leave and don’t let the door hit you on the way out. If enough of them do leave I’ll go back home to my party, the Trump Party.
Finally some good news!!
Oh do shutup! We the people are so far over you idiots. Like the kid who shows up to the ball game and cant get the ball passed to him so now he threatens to go home and take his ball with him.
It aint yours bucko!
Beginning of the spin to explain the loss of party affiliation for repubs post election certification betrayal.
They voted for Biden. Big loss.
Many of the neocon ilk voted for the Hildabeast too so they said proudly. I guess now they’ll be Joebamacons.
They are leaving the Party, wink, wink. I am leaving their Party, and they know millions more like me will do that, and they are very afraid of us. Not George W Bush though. He is just mad because his brother got shellacked by a low life like Donald Trump on national TV. He hasn’t figured out that there will never be any more dumb ass Bushes in the White House. Unless he finally joins the Democraps, of course.
huh. We thought you already left. I mean, W. checked out around 2005 and hasn’t been seen since.
We’ll muddle through somehow.
Can’t WAIT….Don’t let the door hit you in your globalist, elitist, lying, corrupt asses!
GOOD! Go join the democrat/communist party where they belong!
In retrospect, although many of us knew this for years, The Republican Party they’re referring to, used red herring issues to bait the middle class, while stealing us blind and destroying our country for global interest. So, I’d like for them to define “the party they once knew” and see what resemblance it has to reality. Trump and Sundance have unveiled the strings, that are irrefutable. So now THEY are outraged??!! PLEASE! GWB and Cheney both, belong in prison. Looks like we won’t have to form our own party. I’m ready to ride!
