Attention Colorado Republicans: You Are "Human Scum"

  • 12 Comments
  • by: Colorado Pols
Donald Trump in Colorado Springs.

And gentle readers, don’t take our word for it–The Hill:

President Trump on Wednesday excoriated so-called Never Trump Republicans as “human scum” as he seeks to solidify Republican support of him amid an ongoing impeachment inquiry.

He singled out his administration’s special envoy to Ukraine, William Taylor, who a day earlier sat for closed door testimony with those lawmakers the impeachment inquiry and delivered damaging testimony about the White House’s efforts to pressure Ukraine for political purposes.

“The Never Trumper Republicans, though on respirators with not many left, are in certain ways worse and more dangerous for our Country than the Do Nothing Democrats,” Trump tweeted. “Watch out for them, they are human scum!” [Pols emphasis]

At the mere mention of “Never Trump” Republicans, here’s a Tweet from President Donald Trump that should have sent a chill down the spines of Colorado Republicans. Longtime readers will recall why:

After Colorado Republicans elected a slate of Ted Cruz delegates to the Republican National Convention in 2016 as a protest against what was by that point close to a foregone conclusion, “Never Trump” briefly became an involuntary battle cry for Colorado Republicans. Somebody with access to the Colorado GOP’s official Twitter account fired off the above jubilant message shortly after Cruz’s big win here, and even though it was deleted moments later nobody ever forgot it–including, by all accounts, President Trump.

The good news for Colorado Never Trumpers, and you know who you are, is that a second chance at redemption is coming.

  1. " though on respirators "

    My Cat points out that, if the OD is saying the "scum" are old and dying…he means "ventilators".

    If they are wearing respirators it is merely to avoid T***pstink. No surprise there.

  2. Being a Never Trump Republican, and proud of it, I'd like to hear the opinions of Powerful Pear and Moderatus/PodestaEmails/StainedBlueDress on this topic.

    1. I would have used less abrasive language. But if Republicans allow ourselves to be divided now we are going to lose on important policy issues for years to come. This isn't about Trump anymore, it's about protecting the ideals of limited government and personal responsibility against real life socialism that threatens the very fabric of America.

      Is Trump perfect? No. Do we need to protect the GOP of which Trump is the leader? That's all I care about right now.

      1. Is Trump perfect? No. Do we need to protect the GOP of which Trump is the leader? That's all I care about right now.

        So, party over country.  Party over the constitution which your leader says is "phony" now.  

        Limited Government?  Republicans raised my taxes to transfer wealth to Jeff Bezos and the Kochs.  

         

        What policies do you want to defend Soiled Blue one?  Making sure people can't afford healthcare?  Making sure all surfs that are not top dogs have to pay more taxes to subidize your rich puppet masters.  Using racism?  Opening concentration camps along the Mexican border while ripping children away from their parents?

        You're just a pathetic toady who has talking points and nothing else.  And now you're talking about "limited Government" while you work for the Government?  If the Government wanted to get rid of some dead weight, they could start with you.

        BTW, say Hi to Governor Coffman for me 1 of 4.

      2. By what insane logic is Trump the leader of the Republican Party?  He is a madman and a traitor!   Those who kiss his butt will be crushed as the temple of Lincoln falls on him.

        1. 1 of 4 is using the same logic that states Republicans must stand behind him no matter what he does and circle the wagons, even if it becomes clear that Trump is a traitor.  They have declared fealty to him.  They are bullies and they bow to the big bully himself.

      3. Oh, buff off Fluffy — who’re you trying to kid?  

        Ttump not perfect?  Hell, he’s the epitome of every amoral, racist, white-nationalist, anti-intellectual, deficit-running, economy-destroying, illiterate, environment-killing, science-denying, xenophobic, uneducated, religiously-intolerant, instituion-destructing, bigoted, money-worshipping, treaty-abrogating, ignorant, ally-betraying, self-centered, 1%er, Ayn Randian, “limited government”, wet-dream, kleenex-soiling session you’ve ever had, you hypocritical lying deluded self-abuser. Ttump is the culmination of your right-wing “conservative” agenda.

        And, that’s why you want the criminal-in-chief, and his cronies, shielded and protected — you’re protecting yourself and what you are . . .
