GOP strategist Steve Schmidt denounces party, will vote for Democrats
BY MORGAN GSTALTER - 06/20/18 07:33 AM EDT

Republican strategist Steve Schmidt, one of the GOP's loudest critics of President Trump, renounced the party early Wednesday and announced that he will begin voting for Democrats.

Schmidt slammed Trump in a Twitter thread, saying he was leaving the party that once ended slavery.

“29 years and nine months ago I registered to vote and became a member of The Republican Party which was founded in 1854 to oppose slavery and stand for the dignity of human life,” Schmidt tweeted.  “Today I renounce my membership in the Republican Party. It is fully the party of Trump,” he added.

The GOP has become “corrupt, indecent and immoral,” Schmidt added.

He thinks the Dems are any better? They wrote the book on corrupt, indecent, and immoral. The only thing they are better at is spin.

Both makor parties are corrupt.

This is considered newsworthy ??

Start voting for democrats, who want equality of outcome, like Venezuela.


In Venezuela, doctors are prohibited from listing starvation, as the cause of death.

If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor.

I hear there are openings or Romney.

The McCain Sunday appearances are open, but Laura Bush seems to have the inside track there.

“29 years and nine months ago I registered to vote and became a member of The Republican Party which was founded in 1854 to oppose slavery and stand for the dignity of human life..."

So instead, he's decided to join the party that for over 100 years protected and defended slavery, racial segregation, Jim Crow laws and the Ku Klux Klan.

Good riddance.

The Republicans ARE Democrats - completely liberal big-government oligarchs.

Democrats are now overt Socialists and Marxists.

Are we having fun yet?

When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon [the] American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching.

I agree.  Then if we voted Republican, we'd know we weren't getting a democrat in a red suit.
