@kausmickey @davidfrum Idea that TP was or is anti-Wall Street but pro-Obamacare is a self-serving fantasy. Other than Option 3, good piece
.@kausmickey @davidfrum what does @USChamber & #ALEC say wrt #BigInsurance gov’t subsidy xfer payments?
@kausmickey: @davidfrum’s only solid sentence is “@realDonaldTrump jettisoned party orthodoxy on … entitlement spending to foreign policy”
@kausmickey: Sad truth ignored by @davidfrum: Reformicons’ Platonism drove the GOP & USA to this; not the base’s resevoir of Aristotelianism
@kausmickey @davidfrum I don’t get the part of that being in econ interests of middle class. Math dictates it foots the bill.
@GerryDales @kausmickey @davidfrum There’s zero empirical evidence that Trump voters have made peace with anything Obama did
@GerryDales @kausmickey @davidfrum To repeat my military analogy GOPe expecting to nominate Jeb was like expecting Monty to seize Arnhem
@GilR @kausmickey @davidfrum option 3 would make GOP somewhat like able.
@bblattert @kausmickey @davidfrum To you, and I’m guessing you still wouldn’t vote for them.
@GilR @kausmickey @davidfrum maybe, maybe not. It would at least have me thinking about it instead of dismissing the clown show altogether
@bblattert @kausmickey @davidfrum It would be a mistake for GOP to pin its hopes on winning over those who think it’s a clown show.
