One of the greatest public services President Donald Trump has done for the nation is forcing institutions and people to reveal their true character.
While this has been the most valuable when it comes to the media, it has also been valuable when it comes to unmasking globalist Republicans.
This was again on display this week, most notably in the revelation that Paul Ryan was inciting Fox News from his position on the board of Fox Corporation to "decisively break" with President Trump.

He's exposed plenty of other pretend republicans too plus many communists in the pretend demonrat party.

A truthful article . I blame Ryan for everything that the President is going through. All that could have been approved and all the investigations that could have been completed !This man is a corrupt cretin .Trump is exposing the corruption mill that is our government. All these leeches don’t leave even when they are deathly ill because all the money they steal.
Fox is already unwatchable. As for the Romneys, Lee,and the Sass the party left you. We don’t like your politics. Time to stand behind the President and clean house .

There is another one in the DC Swamp that is just now peeking out of the closet and that is Senator Blunt. He's being very careful because he is up for reelection in 2020 but every once in a while he slips and shows his true colors.

There is nothing worse than a Traitor. That's what these people are! They ran as Republicans, were voted into office by Republicans. Then they decide to turn on the very Party that took them in. They stay in the party so that they are "in the know", they have access to everything Republican's are working on. Then they go out and trash the Party so that they can look like Big Shots to the Democrats. I think they should be thrown out of the Party by a VOTE of THEIR PARTY! Why sit by and allow them years to pull this off. The first time they turn on their Party, they should be OUT!

What an excellent, well-written article.
“This latest outrage brings further clarity to Ryan's long track record of failure in the House of Representatives.“.
Amen! [He lost me at that so-called GOP meeting in Baltimore years ago.]
Can’t believe we ever voted for him and Romney...

My, my, my!
And just think - - I was suspended from this forum in 2012 for using the term "romneybot" - - to describe the traitorous swamp hacks who were infesting this board with their corrupt propaganda.
Hey - - are any of you "romneybots" still out there? Is the administrator who suspended me still inhaling oxygen? Have you all repented for your sins? And - - - - am I allowed to say "I told you so"?

I enthusiastically supported the Romney/ Ryan ticket. What a horrible blunder that was, although anyone would have been better than Obama, so I take some small solace in that.
Both Romney and Ryan are despicable and they can't exit the political stage fast enough to suit me.

FTA: "It was a good con while it lasted, but it's over."
We used to talk about neo-cons and paleo-cons. But there was another kind of Republican--the severe kind who delighted in chiding us for actually trying to advance the conservative agenda. They delighted the media too, which could always count on them for pull quotes criticizing the deplorable elements who actually wanted to save their country from leftist insanity.
They said they were conservative but did nothing to demonstrate that. They weren't paleocons or neocons. They were Con Men. And they ran the oldest established permanent floating crap game in national politics. Every election we'd roll the dice on another liberal Republican, nothing would change, and they would pocket their percentage.
Trump changed that. He came at the cruise ship conservatives like a pirate and told them to get onboard with us for a change. Most didn't. They jumped ship. They liked the way things were before Trump. Watching them now, floundering in the water while leftist sharks devour them piecemeal has been one of the most satisfying experiences of my political life.
I hope Sarah Palin is smiling somewhere.

I knew the democrat party abandoned the republic years ago. I knew the democrat party was infiltrated by soviet communists. I knew that the New Deal was a raw deal for the republic. I knew that LBJ's great society was a fraud inflicted on both the minority community by manufacturing dependency and forcing the rest of us to pay for it (including minorities who refused to take the dependency bait).
But had it not been for Donald J Trump I would have never known how that the GOP was right down with them in the depths of the swamp.
They played us with the pretense of opposing Obama. Romney let them walk all over him, there was no intent to win. We were played with the McCain & Palin candidacy using Palin to placate the Tea Party movement pretending to give us credence. It was all fake; we have been had. They pretended to oppose the Obama Care leap to socialism, then abandoned all resistance when they had the power to take a step toward salvaging the republic.
God bless Donald Trump, God save the United States.

I believed the party line that Ryan was "brilliant" on the Federal budget until I read that he believed that "bringing illegals out of the shadows" would bail out Social Security and reduce the deficit. What an idiot. Most illegals consume far more resources than they pay in any taxes. The smart ones already file tax returns so they can prove how long they've been in this country when the next amnesty comes. The WSJ wrote an article about it years ago, and labored mightily to find one who actually paid a tax. The best they could find was someone who paid a little over $400 in Federal taxes. In addition, Federal investigators have found that the IRS paid millions (if not billions) in earned income tax credits to illegals who aren't eligible. Bottom line is Ryan has/has his head in his nether regions.

"Amen" said the choir! The only thing in this great article that I disagreed with was that the "Paul Ryans of the world were vastly preferable to most Democrats". I think traitors are less preferable than people who you truthfully declare their errant agenda. I cringe when I think that I voted for both McCain and Romney. If the republican party goes back to that type of candidate, I will NOT knowingly vote for them again.
And if Fox chooses to go the way of Gillette, it won't bother me. I would rather they truthfully declare their agenda, than to stealthily continue their efforts to sway their listeners to their leftist/globalist thinking.

I hope the Murdock clan has not gone over to the dark side. But I about gagged when Donna Brazil showed up on Special Report. Fox News is the only network news source that I put any faith in. The others have become propaganda and slander mills for the DNC.

Ryan and Romney are both married to flaming liberal women. Ryan was overrated and should have never been considered for Speaker. Hey, what happened to that cushy job he supposedly had with a Wall Street firm?

Having voluntarily left the forum for many years after experiencing the same attacks as described by #9, it's now somewhat ironic to see the two charlatans Romney and Ryan finally being recognized as the contemptible snakes they really are. Thank you, President Donald J. Trump!

As I have wandered through my own life-long political evolution from Johnson Democrat over to Trump supporting Republican, I have felt betrayed many times by many various politicians on all levels of rank from local to national. However, no one ... and I mean no one --- in all those 50 years has caused me to feel the most sense of betrayal and the most foolish for supporting them like these two. Only Romney and Ryan have done that! No wonder they found each other!
I drove around for months with a Romney/Ryan sticker on my car (which got keyed), I had yard signs stolen or defaced but I still sent money (lots of it, relative to my income) and we even did a fund raiser at our house! Then we went to a very sad "victory" party that also cost $. I swear, no one has knifed me in the back on my set of principles like these two creeps!!
I feel sympathy and empathy for Trump.
Who are the only "politicians" I voted for who haven't betrayed me --- at least while they were in office? A few locals, Mayor Giuliani, Congressman Lee Zelden and POTUS Donald J. Trump.

Fox is teetering on the brink of extinction like CNN. I watch less of it until Tucker Carlson, Laura Ingraham and Barbie Doll Shannon Bream comes on at night. Sean Hannity is alright but I can't take his motor mouth Rush Limbaugh talking points (a good thing) in rapid fire succession.
I now watch Newsmax, OAN and read Lucianne for news and headlines I've even deleted Drudge from my phone and computer he revealed his Trump hatred. Globalist anti-Trumpers need not apply here.
The disappointing days of backstabber John McCain are over and if Mitt Romney thinks this is a nitch to fill he is wrong. The fake media is not a place to go to win Republican favor and the same goes for Pauly Eddie Munster Ryan. If the Murdoch's keep him they will becomes dead ducks in the water too.

Romney and Ryan and a lot of other Congressional Republicans and Democrats aligned with UniParty principles are members of the globalist investor class. Their policies in the main are to ship as many American jobs as possible overseas to low wage countries, and to fill the remaining American jobs that cannot be moved overseas by importing, both illegally and legally, as many foreign workers as possible who are willing to work in those US jobs for much lower wages than American workers can accept and maintain their customary US lifestyles. The globalist investor class who are using such anti-American worker public policies to maximize their profits, could care less if all ordinary American workers were limited to about the federal minimum wage as that would generate more profits for the global investor class. Since being elected, President Trump has used his position to “out” the globalist investor class to the benefit of ordinary American workers and the globalist investor class has been fighting Trump all the way. But every time a UniParty politician leaves the Congress chalk it up to Trump draining a little part of the DC “Swamp” a primary reason why the “deplorables” elected Trump in the first place.

I found it very curious that Paul Ryan and his family moved from Wisconsin to Washington DC. Kind of the same thought pattern with the Obama's moving to Washington DC.

You have to be with somebody supporting them before you can decisively break with them over disagreements. Fox was started and is still owned by a leftist Aussie and his sons. Nothing surprising about their behavior right now.
Ryan and McConnell both put out a joint statement the week or so before the 2016 election stating they were not going to rubber stamp anything for an incoming president. That was actually my first clue that Trump was going to pull it off and win. Only promise those two prats ever kept as well. Ryan is owned by a democrat wife and the insurance lobby. He has never been for this nation, and he knows it.

I never did like either of them because they were just a bit to creepy along with McNutjob the three musketeers of political deception and my bet is that Mitch McConnell put them all up to it and gave them his blessings.

#10 Same here. I never liked it when folks here criticized Romney in 2012, but I always listened and was trying to understand the flaws they could see (I just wanted to beat Obama and was willing to overlook some things). I have learned that the most cynical amongst us are usually the ones who have the best insights. Kudos to those who could see through Romney from way back.

Ryan I had pegged as a liar from the get go. Romney who has become little more than a prostitute of vengeance since he was not able to become secr. of state. He proved to be a great disappointment. Ryan his 'VP' lied when talking about his background and he is little more than a money grubbing lefty Rino. But it's all music to Lachlan Murrrrdock's playboy ears!

Like many (apparently(?) here; I seem to have come through a political epiphany. I was for the Tea Party, and prayed that Sarah P would have a Washington, political future....McNutjob quickly bolixed that! Cruz, came along and along; I had hopes for him, but he seemed to lack a 'fire-in-his-belly' and sort of flamed out.
Then along came "The Donald' and he waxed the Dims, and Da Hildabeast, pretty good. He renewed my faith that there was still some TRUTH out there in the Washington Political environment. Finally, a politician who said what he would do, and DID IT! In spite of what the Republican Party did or said.....Any money I send goes to the Trump Campaign.....The Repubis, and Demonrats can go pound sand.

Very,very good comments here. We too went the support Republican path. Were invited some 30+ years ago to join Republican Senatorial Committee. My husband went back to DC to several meetings. They were just to make the locals from flyover country feel important. Nothing was accomplished. And the meetings all started at 9 am, AND THE FREE BAR WAS ALREADY UP AND RUNNING WITH ALL POLITICIANS CARRYING AROUND THEIR SECOND OR THIRD DRINKS! we agree with the poster who said all $ contributed going to Trump himself NOT the party. And I got a text once asking for $ and I wrote back saying my husband had been out of work and I could not give anything. I got a lovely text back saying that was fine, give when I could but please continue to support and pray for the President!, How many times do you think that happens?
When I get a request from *the party* I send the thing back in the prepaid envelope telling our experience and that they will NEVER get our $ and informing them all our contributions go to Trump himself.

I have no use for Romney, and Ryan nauseates me.
That said, I chuckle reading posts from those who suppose they were so prescient in 2012 in casting aspersions on those who supported Romney's presidential candidacy. What other choices did we have who could have been competitive with Obama? The Republican candidates were:
Romney--(enough said)
Ron Paul--(whacky--couldn't have beaten Obama)
Newt Gingrich--(I like Newt's politics and assertiveness a lot, but with his history of dumping his wife while she lay in the hospital and re-marrying, he couldn't have beaten Obama)
Rick Santorum--too whimpy to have beat Obama
Rick Perry--good man, weak campaigner, brain freezes during debates.
Jon Huntsman--competent administrator, but goofy, left-leaning political views
Michelle Bachmann--appealing, competent, but mediocre campaigner, getting only .21% of the Republican primary vote.
So, while any of these candidates--even Romney--would have been better presidents than Obama, we really didn't have many better choices, did we?

What we need in our Congress is a score or more of patriots like Sarah Palin (I hope she runs for the Senate in Alaska), and Michael Flynn, and Dan Crenshaw and James O'Keefe, and Jim Jordan and Louis Gomert and Devin Nunes and others of like mind. Please God, help us keep this One Nation, Under God, Please.

#10, I say this sincerely and without snark. You were among the most effective advocates Mitt Romney had on this site in 2012. You were eloquent and dedicated in defending your candidate. That I opposed Romney during the primary meant we often crossed paths and, occasionally, words. However, once he became the nominee, there was no other reasonable alternative, and I did what I could to help elect him president. I make no apologies for voting for Mitt Romney over Barack Obama, nor should anyone else.
I'm just grateful you're back on site and glad to be on the same side with you now.

The Bushies and those around them started all this RINO stuff, but the "Establishment" of BOTH parties in DC are alive and well!
We the People have been had for some time now, and there appears to be an awakening of sorts as the conservatives get hip to the tricks played upon them perverting the Rule of Law and the do-nothing representatives in DC who are insulated from the rest of the people back home in their own little world.
This doesn't just happen in the fantasy world of DC--the leadership in state offices have shown disdain for the 'rabble and rubes' at the grass roots as well.
Perhaps THIS is why so many entrenched politicians are deciding not to run for re-election-- short of death, that seems to be all the gets new blood in there, but so many are corrupted by the RINOs and ruined.
As Yoda said: "All those who gain power are afraid to lose it." McPain/Mittens.Ryano/Bonehead have shown that
