200 latest news reports from 100 top conservative websites
Granted, the GOP has been factionalized between sane patriots (sometimes called 'silent majority' or 'tea party') and neocons for decades, but there are rumblings that the split may become official.
About half of all Republicans responded positively to the prospect of a new patriot party were President Donald Trump to pursue that option.
Nearly half of Republicans say they would abandon the party as it is currently structured and join a new party if former President Trump was its leader, according to a new poll released Sunday.
A Suffolk University-USA Today poll found that 46 percent of Republicans said they would abandon the GOP and join the Trump party if the former president decided to create one. Only 27 percent said they would stay with the GOP, with the remainder indicating they would be undecided.
"We feel like Republicans don't fight enough for us, and we all see Donald Trump fighting for us as hard as he can, every single day," a Republican and small-business owner from Milwaukee told the newspaper. "But then you have establishment Republicans who just agree with establishment Democrats and everything, and they don't ever push back."
