Obama/Biden “GOP” Supporters Want to Take Over the Republican Party

First, let me note these Democrats (some registered as Independents or Democrats, former GOP’ers) all endorsed Obama and Biden.  Michael Steele, the former RNC Chair, promoted by Bush, is on MSNBC every day denouncing the Republican Party.

Second, they list former Wyoming Senator Alan Simpson as a member—he died in March of 2025, at the age of 93.

William Cohen was a GOP Senator from Maine—but served as the Secretary of Defense for Bill Clinton.  Adam Kinsinger is known as the “cryer”, he cries if you mention the name Donald Trump or the weather.

Former Senator John Danforth?  He is 88 years old

You get it, these are the folks that caused the GOP and America to support Trump.  They had joined with Democrats to “compromise” our way into bad trade deals, a weak defense, open borders and hate for the Constitution.  Dan Quayle?  Anybody remember him?  Mike Pence?  He wants revenge on Trump—no legitimate Republican would even ask him for an endorsement.

Not mentioned in this article, but another founder is former Congresswoman Mimi  Walters—who since she lost to Katie Porter, disappeared from public life and is now returning as a registered Republican helping the Democrat Party

This is obviously not a serious effort of the Democrats, trotting out aged, dead and discredited people once associated with the Republican Party.

NeverTrumpers are back with a new name

By Robin M. Itzler, American Thinker, 6/11/25  https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2025/06/never_trumpers_are_back_with_a_new_name.html

Democrats have failed to conduct a thorough deep-dive analysis as to why they lost the presidential election and Congress, and it seems many Never Trumpers also don’t want to look in the mirror. Instead of accepting that their RINO time in the D.C. spotlight is over, a bunch of Never Trumpers got together and started an organization called Our Republican Legacy.

They do not accept that the MAGA populist movement is here to stay. Among Our Republican Legacy (ORL) founders and leaders are:

• Former House Speaker John Boehner
• Former Vice President Mike Pence
• Former Vice President Dan Quayle
• Former Republican National Committee Chair and current Independent and current MSNBC host Michael Steele
• Former Missouri Senator John Danforth
• Former Maine Senator William Cohen
• Former Wyoming Senator Alan Simpson

Aren’t you excited? I bet you can barely restrain yourself from clicking on the group’s website to join ORL. If you attend a meeting, you might run into other “esteemed” members such as former representative and current CNN commentator Adam Kinzinger, who in 2024 endorsed Kamala “word salad” Harris over Donald Trump. Even many in Kinzinger’s own family disowned him! Another ORL member you might chat with at an event is former Representative Charlie Dent, who endorsed Joe Biden in 2020.

Chris Vance, former chairman of the Washington State Republican Party and ORL senior advisor, said in a May 29, 2025, interview:

We’re just getting started. Our state organizations will recruit members, engage local media, drive the conversation on social platforms, and show up visibly in Republican Party events at every level. We are building the leadership structure for a Republican Party in exile—ready for its return.

Notice that most ORL founders and leaders have the word “former“ in their titles. It’s Never Trumpers who are in exile, not today’s America First MAGAs!

The new organization (an NPR affiliate) erroneously believes the Republican tent has room for Never Trumpers and MAGAs. My guess is that most America First Patriots would rather have a root canal without anesthesia than have Never Trumpers in the MAGA tent. We America First Patriots firmly believe that President Trump and his dedicated administration are working 24-hour days to correct the Uniparty mess that many ORL founders and leaders helped to create along with their Democrat buddies.

My suggestion: If you are at an event and meet someone from Our Republican Legacy, recommend they call 202-863-8000. That’s the phone number for the Democratic National Committee.
