I'm old enough to remember the outrage over the citation of a major network's report that GOP senators were warned a vote against Floridaman would earn defectors their "head on a pike."
If Romney is such a stellar politician and accomplished man, how did he lose an election he should have easily won? And if he had won, would there have been much of a difference between his administration and Obama's?

Why have Republicans been unable to deliver on the platforms they stand on, yet Trump has been able to drag them out of their timid acquiescence to the Dems, their going along to get along, just sort of slowing down the rush to socialism along with the accelerating rate of destroying the Constitution? Why is there now an extremely visible difference between the two parties, an actual meaningful choice?

Do you prefer a choice between actual differences as between a continuation of managed American decline, or an honest attempt to restore American economic power? The complicity in China's rise to world dominance, or an actual attempt to thwart and reverse it?
