Hannity: If Trump Loses, I Am Pointing the Finger at Ryan, McConnell, Graham, McCain, Kasich

[unknown]

So then the people who voted for Trump, the ones that cheer "build that wall! Build that wall!" at his rallies, that want a moratorium on Muslims entering the US, who want a deal renegotiated with China and NAFTA to go away are all liberals?

You may have missed the point. The democrat RINOs, GOPe, liberal republicans, created TRUMP in a backlash. After giving us McCain and Romney, and even two bushes, real conservative republicans are done with them. So when a strong man showing America First shows up, that is what the strong republican base went with. It is a backlash against Jebbie, or Kasich, or McCain, or Romney, Ryan, McConnel, Bohner, etc. etc. This is what the tea party was about. But the liberal democrat republican establishment was too stupid and to elitist to see it and/or respond appropriately. If they had focused on supporting Cruz from the get go, then we maybe wouldn't have Trump. But no one would have gone for Jebbie or Kasich!

Who in their right mind gives one hoot in hell what Hannity says about anything?

I used to.  Listened faithfully almost daily, in fact.

But that was then (pre-Donald).  And this is now.  Hannity jumped the shark and now sucks Trumpy little ones.

This scene typifies the relationship between Trump and his supporters:

The monkey has an excuse. He's a monkey and cannot be expected to think rationally. So thats not a truly fair comparison.

On second thought, neither can a Trump supporter.

Nevermind.

Hope you seek help, sooner rather than later.

You are so cute! Dumb, but cute.

Really...I think it was an economic decision.  Or arm-twisting, if you will.

Hannity, former roofer, just overestimated his independence.  He thought he was on FNC because of his deep thoughts.  Turns out he's there as a parrot, or ventriloquist's dummy...say what he's told to say, or else he can find a way to pay for his Long Island house and his expensive family, on a roofer's salary.  Or by spinning records from midnight to six on a 5000-watt station in White Plains.

Since he traded his "conservative" credentials to support a reality show buffoon? Fewer than this time last year, I'm sure.

I'm gonna have a real difficult time not having long term hard feelings towards people like Hannity. As many of Trumps more obnoxious supporters.

It's easy. They all supported a destructive lefitst. Place them all in the proper category they freely chose, remove them from your life so as to not contaminate yourself or family with leftism...and there you go. Problem solved.

Agree with you, in that they're not worth listening to anymore.  Maybe never were.

A certain skepticism is always appropriate when listening to these commentators.  Unless they own their own distribution system, they are there by assent of those who DO own the conduit, network or paper or website.  The writer/speaker/personality is in a position of privilege.

My take:  Judge their work on its own merit, but always consider the source.  Skepticism is always necessary, and especially in our duplicitous age.

As for Hannity:  Because of the arm-twisting, he opted to please his masters at the cost of his credibility.  And once his credibility is gone, and that's happening fast, he will be of no use to either his masters or his former viewer/listener base.

In the end, he'll be doing the midnight shift at WHOR in Podunk, anyway.   I wouldn't want to be in his shoes right now...

Funny, I thought us Conservatives believe in personal responsibility..

'Conservatives' used to believe in free trade, too.

Did you know that in this election cycle, only 40% of the GOP finds free trade to be a positive... while 60% of the Democrat party does?

'Conservatives' used to oppose subsidies for green energy

'Conservatives' used to stand for states rights

The GOP has lost a generation of voters this electoral cycle.

Yep.  The Harvard GOP Club, one of the oldest GOP organizations in the United States, has endorsed Clinton.  They called Trump, and I quote, "A threat to the survival of the Republic".  It's the first time in over 128 years that this has happened.

Those are what would be the future of the GOP.  And we've just lost them.

The GOPe did not give us McCain or Romney.  The GOP primary voter gave us McCain and Romney... just like it gave us Trump this election cycle.  They gave us those candidates by voting for them.

It is hard to win after telling 20% of the party (conservatives) that you don't need their votes.

Right.   

hanity is dead to me.

Well actually.. it was democrat crossovers who gave us those candidates.

Close the damn primaries.

Interesting point you made.

So why would the GOP primary voter pick a McCain, then a Romney, then a Trump. I see Trump as radically different from the first two? What happened to the GOP primary voter to become so oddly different?

Its all about who its easier for the democrat to beat.

We saw them on local  news here in Michigan laughing at the camera as they said they voted for Trump but would vote for Clinton in November.

Trump is a liberal and he donates to people like McConnell and Boehner. Trump is nothing like a conservative.

Trump is even more liberal and disconnected from reality than the first two you mentioned.

Probably

But the first two are definetly democrats posing as republicans.

Hmmmm. I am not sure what you are suddenly referring too.

We were talking about the GOP primary voter. I don't believe they are sophisticated enough to make that determination. Now, I think you are talking about the democrat crossover voter.

Is that correct?
