    This is precisely what Bill Buckley understood when he policed the Right and rebuked fringe elements that would've tarnished conservatism.

        @mattklewis Maybe you should have kicked out Rush Limbaugh when you had the chance. And all of the Talk Radio complex that gave you Trump.

        @WesReynolds1 @mattklewis Sorry-reading so much sarcasm this am I assume it. But an unholy alliance with racists/fascists is playing w fire.

        @mattklewis @Ricky_Vaughn99 The palace coup by rabid, warmongering Neocons was an epic failure of that policing.

        @mattklewis 60+% of Repubs want to hijack the party and return it to the people. Not just DT & TC. Why defy the people's wishes?
