RUSH: On Monday, the Amazon Prime/Washington Post ran an op-ed by a Never-Trumper titled: “For Aiding Trump’s Abuse of Power, the Republican Party Deserves to Be Voted out of Existence.”
It doesn’t matter who wrote it; I’m not going to mention the name. He said that the GOP “sold its soul” to President Trump. The author lists a bunch of grievances going back to the 2016 campaign. It’s the same complaints we’ve heard over and over for three years, like: How dare Trump criticize John McCain!
Well, here’s the truth, which Never-Trumpers will never understand. Before Trump was elected, the Republican Party didn’t have much of a “soul” to sell, because it has been run by sellouts, for the most part, for a lot of years.
President Trump has earned his 90%-plus approval rating from the Republican base because is doing what he promised to do. It’s simple: he fights back against the left and against you swamp-dwelling, deep-state, establishment Republicans.
That is why President Trump has become the soul of the party, unlike the soulless, Never-Trump sellouts — who we wonder now if they ever were really on our side.
