Donald Trump Crossed the Rapidan
By Stu Cvrk | May 06, 2021 9:30 AM ET


Historical parallels are always there for the thoughtful. Consider a key turning point for each of two former US presidents.

Union General Ulysses S. Grant crossed the Rapidan River in Virginia on 4 May 1864 – 157 years ago this very week – to commence the Overland Campaign in order to engage and destroy Confederate General Robert E. Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia in a series of bloody battles that ended on 12 June when the siege of Petersburg began.

With the stakes equally high for the country, Donald Trump crossed his own Rapidan to commence his version of the Overland Campaign when he started down that escalator on 15 June 2015 and declared his candidacy for the Republican nomination for president of the United States. This past Monday, that campaign continued with the latest battle as he labeled the 2020 election “The Big Lie.”

Some would say this is over-the-top hyperbole. I think not. Let us examine the parallels.

In four years of Trump the GOP lost the presidency, the senate, and the House. What a winner, huh?
Get lost Trump you pathetic, lying loser.

They weren't lost, they were stolen.

You are going to have the Big Lie of the Rodents shoved in your face every time you try to make it to be something besides what everyone knows it to be.

The GOP is not the party leadership.  The GOP is the party MEMBERSHIP.   The members need to kick the leaders out if they leaders are going the wrong way.  No coddling allowed.

Trump didn't cross the Rapidan. Somewhat like Cleopatra barging down the Nile, he barged down the Potomac....and sank.
