The paradigm has shifted. What was once the Republican party has been hijacked. There's an editorial by David Brooks in the NYT today about how the populist/isolationist and, might I add authoritarian, faction of the Repubican party has replaced the internationalist/free trade party. It is something of a revolution and the only counter to it is likely to be some group that can come up with some new trajectory that answers, in some measure, the biggest questions and fears of the population. Also a person who can deliver a new unifying message who hopefully isn't a demagogue.

I don’t think the extremists are interested in unifying with the legacy Republicans that they have viciously disparaged.

They burned that bridge.

Copied, = Our KCRCC ByLaws are very different. They contain only a short half sentence about being removed for missing meetings: (a PC may be removed if )…”without excuse acceptable to the KCRCC, fails to attend four consecutive regular meetings of the KCRCC.”

This is what is Happening Nationally. Dictatorial RULE, Leading to a FASCIST REGIME, and NOT the RULE OF "LAW: that we have KNOWN.

Beware the SENATE / HOUSE Federal Representation, TRUMP has already Committed to NOT HAVING ELECTIONS "AGAIN", This is VIDEO and AUDIO RECORDED, "LIKE IT OR NOT" ! It is UP to "WE the PEOPLE" NO Party Affiliation Required.

In 1775 It was "WE the PEOPLE" or BEING a "LOYALIST", WE the PEOPLE FOUGHT a WAR Until September 1783. We are at this POINT AGAIN ! BEWARE your Fellow Idahoans is what this is About.
