    He's a Republican. There are lots of his version of RINO.

    He is not what we need, and the country obviously agrees.

    I see, I assume you would be a Republican in the "New Mold" which is actually very much in opposition to what it was 20 years go.....good luck with that. Or are you a Trumpet which is not Republican at all?

    Actually, the entire reason the term RINO exists is because they're not like they were 20 years ago. See, that's the whole "in name only" part.

    But of course, you're a RINO, which is a leftist, so no is surprised that you attempt to claim otherwise. Newsflash, prog: the GOP has moved left, and has an infection.

    And I'm not a Republican, but I usually vote for the GOP candidate for lack of a more intelligent alternative.

    Anyone with a firm grasp of REALITY is well aware that the USA POTUS election is a Binary Choice.

    Many people vote Democratic for the same reasons (lesser of evils, etc.).

    Trump supporters will not forget about the border wall

    If congress does not deliver the money the backstabing RINO's will be punished in 2018

    Buttons featuring the red slash through an image of a rhinoceros were spotted in the New Hampshire State House as early as 1992.[3] In 1993, the wife of a former Marine and future California Republican Assembly President Celeste Greig distributed buttons featuring a red slash over the word RINO to express opposition to Los Angeles mayor Richard Riordan.[1] The term came into widespread usage during subsequent election cycles.

    Great.

    The Wall isn't happening.

    Hopefully it costs the GOP in 2018.

    Sounds like a plan.

    No they won't. But if taxes are cut and more people are working that will be a big positive for him.

    It's a shame we don't see more teaparty like candidates running against establishment repubs.

    It should. But just because establishment republicans may not be reelected doesn't mean that democrats will take their place.

    Yes I agree with that

    The border wall issue will not die because everyong wants a deal on illegal aliens that means a border wall first

    That is an interesting point.

    I can foresee a few scenarios where (under the right circumstances) "non-Trump/non-Establishment" Republicans could win selected primaries in GOP leaning districts.

    Well there was a tea party candidates elected over Republicans one of them was here in my home state and I really like him he's a good politician.

    I see Trump more as a reaganesque midliner he's not really ultra-conservative.

    So you do recognize that Kasich is a "non Republican."

    Sorry if your life is a "living hell." But how, precisely, is that President Trump's fault?

    Well after Obama and left wing efforts for a coup and do nothing democrats, you might have a point.

    Meanwhile the economic outlook is much better but I am sure your kind can halt that.

    Democrats get a lot of finding from unions. But unions here in the states get their money through coercion. There are some states where you can't work in any labor capacity unless you join the union and that of course means paying union dues.

    none of those are qualifications, nor do they show him not being a shill for the party.
