President Trump is down in the polls. The Republican National Convention is mostly canceled. And now, some Republicans are contemplating the unthinkable: Would they be better off losing in November and rebuilding for 2024?
“The thought is starting to cross people’s minds,” said a Republican strategist who requested anonymity to speak candidly. “One way or the other, there will be life after Trump.”

Probably the same GOP "dissidents' who were willing to sacrifice the Republic to the whims of Hitlary Rotten Corruption. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

That's just plain dumb. If Joementia gets elected and they enact their radical agenda--voting by illegal aliens and 16-year olds, statehood for DC and Puerto Rico, packing the Supreme Court--their will never again be a Republican president, or majority in either the House or Senate.

Forget that foolishness. Every minute the Dems are in power is too much irreparable damage. It's past time to stop their reign of insane ideology.

A good chance there will be no election in 2024, at least none beyond the banana republic kind, if Biden carries 2020.

They're counting on the Republican base "coming home" to the GOPe and the consultant class who will continue the leftward march of the country, just at a slower pace than the Democrats - sort of like boiling a frog.

If they are not openly FOR Trump this November, then I will forever consider them as AGAINST me and my interests and will never forgive them. There is a baby Bush here in Texas and he had the good sense to support Trump this spring. The other Bush family members will always be tainted for their treachery.

All you have to see, for the future of the USA, are the cities that had NO Republican mayors for 30, 40, or 50 years. As goes the cities, there goes the Country! If these damnable RINOS succeed in their treason, it’s goodbye America as we once knew it!

Yeah, throw the bums out, all those bums...they're RINOs, we're not!
The object of political parties is to win elections. Lose local, state and national level elections, not just the Presidential election, and that Grand Old Party becomes the Gone Old Party through its electoral irrelevance. Go to states like Maryland; cities like Chicago. Republicans there are generally Republicrats to survive, no more than lip-service opposition. One does not win elections by excluding all who disagree even slightly.
The professional Republicans really don't give a rip about "real Republicans", the ones who cannot bring themselves to vote otherwise - like none have ever tightly held their nose at the polls for candidates like McCain and Romney, pressured by their political peers, the McCainiacs and Romneybots of elections past. Their goal is not to create great public policy nor steer the Republic to better days. Their goal is to retain office and take care of their sponsors under the guise of "conservatism" or whatever wins elections. They are only a few steps behind 'liberals" in social matters - reserving a few, like abortion, as galvanizing issues.
Trump is under hack Republican attack for a simple reason: He's not "Republican", and he's messing up the cozy game that has emerged over the years. We want reform, and we're getting unthinkable resistance from the UNIPARTY. Biden is a made man in UNIPARTY circles. Go figure...

These are the cruise ship Republicans. They like Washington DC cocktail parties and don’t get invited to Mar-a-Lago.

So let's see. Pierre Delecto, Jeff Flakie, Eric Cantor, Paul Ryan, W, and a whole host of pubbie political "strategists" represent the dissidents. The pubbie faction of the deep state. All willing to cast America aside for the sake of fulfilling Obie's, Billary's, and Bite Me's new world order in Amerika.

Read the article. I couldn’t find one named person in this “very small” group. Antle’s concoction, is my guess. He seems to be anything but a Trump fan. And isn’t the Examiner run by the Other Side with a few token “conservative” writers like Byron York tossed in to obscure its main philosophy?

Is that a surprise? Of course the members of the Uniparty want their own to win. Trump has upset their Globalist Monopoly game.
There are still 2 parties though: the Uniparty and the Trumpists.

It reminds me of a former friend during the cold war, who said if he were president and thought the Soviets were going to launch a first strike, he “would surrender and then join the Underground.” Huh?

Another bullsh** story. Fact is if Trump loses there will be no 2024. Its over, done, put a freakin fork in it. People who talk like this need their heads examined. This is all to try and keep conservatives away from voting. Wake up. Got it.

Is Hillary still up by nine points?
The article listed Bill Clinton's so-called accomplishments as having been to the Republicans' liking, not mentioning that all of those ideas came from Republicans in the first place. Remember the Contract with America?

Oh the premise of the headline is absolutely true. In Texas, the Bushes and their army of former this-n-thats are planning and waiting to retake the party. They will then undo or water down much of the good Trump has done. This crowd despises conservatives and yes, they much prefer a Democrat president over this good President Trump.

The polls are crap. Trump will win. Biden will not survive his first "senior moment" on television in prime time. They cannot hide him until November.

No, there won't be life after Trump. Commie Marxist life is living death. Not a life that I care for. All of the Rinos who want this, and we know who they are, get on a plane and go to China, Venezuela and some other lousy commie places!!!

If Comrade Biden wins, Republicans will never be allowed to run again. Hillary will move in and take over and we will end up with a Communist government where only one party wins.

I was pretty angry at the Obama administration, and hated the media in 2016. This year I am angry at all democrats, and hate the media even more.

Stupidity is not exclusive to republicans or democrats but it seems to be a common trait among politicians. If Brainless Biden is elected there will be no 2024.
Attention GOP, especially the gutless wonders who are begging us for money and benefitting greatly from the leadership of Donald Trump but refuse to acknowledge his success. November 3rd, 2020 will be the last time I ever vote and I know many people who are saying the same thing so it would be in your benefit to keep us in mind until then because it's all over for you. You have disappointed millions of us for the last time.

who in the hell wrote this piece of trash? "anonymous" seems to be the way most, alleged, reporters report their stories. cut the crap and cite your sources or else don't print this type of trash. I don't read, or believe in, the examiner. not any more. as bad as the other trash news outlets.

Every election from 2016 on will be a fight to save the U.S. If the demosluts ever get power again, the country will be destroyed. Want to get an example of what the country would become, just look at the Congress from the election of 2018. Now imagine people like that running the country. Civil war would follow.

"Would they be better off losing in November and rebuilding for 2024?" That was the thinking of the Republican party for decades and that's why we never had the House for so many years. But now that they have a real leader, they cower and don't follow him. RHINOs, who seem to make up the majority of elected Republicans in Congress are the problem because they have zero backbone and want to be loved by the DC media. They are pathetic examples of people who are supposed to be political leaders.

All I need to know about this ''Republican strategist who requested anonymity'' is that he is a chicken-shirt, asshat, pandering fool, dangerously close to being full of shiite.

Well, let's have some fun.
Nominate 'GOPe'/Uniparty types who are likely among 'the THREE' in the 'secret' group.
I nominate Bill Kristol, the failed editor, and Pierre Delecto, the failed RINO candidate who carpet-bagged himself all the way to Utah.
Any other suggestions?
Oh, and by the way, make SURE that your donations go DIRECTLY to President Trump, not the RINO organization!

One, we will never forget or forgive them. Two, how stupid can they be? Biden's VP could be in power until 2032 and our country would be gone by then. We must stop the Democrats in 2020.
