New 3RD Party Forming: Mesa County Deplorables



This is not the Onion. http://www.kjct8.com/content/news/Mesa-County-Republicans-abandon--396894641.html

"A portion of the Mesa County Republican is breaking off into it's own group, because members said it's weak at getting Donald Trump to the White House.

Patterson, a former employee for the Republican Party, said the Mesa County Deplorables is a volunteer group with one goal. "Make sure Donald Trump get as many votes as he can here in Western Colorado,” said Patterson.

The Mesa County Deplorables first event will be on Thursday from 12 p.m. to 1 p.m. outside of Hillary Clinton’s Grand Junction campaign headquarters at 209 Colorado Avenue. The event is a rally for women in support of Trump. "We wanted to go to Hillary’s front door…we are going to go there and show her symbolically, that she doesn’t speak for all women," said Patterson."

Trump has really sped up the demise of the Republican Party, I thought we were going to have to wait for the demographics to shift enough for us to be a shoe in for every election but Trump has really accelerated this process.

We'll have to send him a fruit basket to show our gratitude!
