It just so happens that Republicans know exactly what the rise of Donald Trump is doing to their party, and some of them are getting brutally honest when it comes to expressing their thoughts on the matter.
Last night on the MSNBC show “All In With Chris Hayes,” a panel which included GOP political strategist Rick Wilson was discussing the endorsement of Trump by the brainless Sarah Palin, and Wilson remarked that most of Trump’s supporters were anti-Semitic and lacked any ambition. He then added:
“The fact of the matter is, most of them are childless single men who masturbate to anime. They’re not real political players. These are not people who matter in the overall course of humanity.”
Wow! Talk about being so honest that it hurts! Wilson also noted:
“I don’t think that this other stuff that Trump is toying with is part of the mainstream conservative movement by any stretch of the imagination.”
Chris Hayes partially agreed with Wilson, saying:
“The question to me is, this is all going to be tested, right? I agree with you; there are large parts of people who are avowed Republicans and conservatives who genuinely care about limited government. But what we’re seeing right now is this sort of electoral test. And that’s what makes today so fascinating, this fight so fascinating.”
Wilson also said that most conservatives support what he called “limited government principles,” and then took another swat at the Trump contingency of the GOP with this:
“The screamers and the crazy people on the all-right as they call it, you know, who love Donald Trump, who have plenty of Hitler iconography in their Twitter icons and names.”
The GOP is now the party of Trump. No wonder the Republicans in Congress all look so damn worried.
