    Default Has the republican party gone completely to the right

    The GOP has announced that the Donald will have a prominent role in the convention. Has the party gone completely birther bat shyte crazy?

    Are they also gonna give Sheriff Joe a speaking role?

    Is this officially the end of your Father's GOP?

    (note this post is really for glenga who seems to enjoy this type of conversation)

    "The Donald" is going to do a "video temperance" where he tells an Obama impersonator: "You're Fired!".
    Gosh.
    How exciting that will be.

    Edited to add: supposed to say "video appearance", not "temperance", since that makes no sense! Darned spell-check!

    Yes, the GOP has gone completely to the right.

    No, it is no longer our father's GOP.

    A large part of the problem is they're trying to figure out who's GOP it is. They're searching for an identity that sells.

    A move towards 'core values' is the last gasp of a dying entity.

    Or he could tell Romney "you're fired!". Then the nomination can go to Paul Ryan!

    Democrats should be over the moon with this announcement. Donald Trump is a poster arsewipe boy for the arrogant rich right wing, he should be able to alienate scores of independents with his involvement.
