Although the establishment Republicans do not approve of President Trump, he is responsible for the new diversity in the party.

Bush, George W. Bush and Trump, ex-Republican ambassadors and Republican strategists, the people involved say.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>More than 120 of them held a Zoom call last Friday to discuss the breakaway group, which would run on a platform of &#8216;principled conservatism,&#8217; including adherence to the Constitution and the rule of law &#8211; ideas those involved say have been trashed by Trump.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Most of the leadership of the Republican party is not conservative and never have been. They are part of the deep state that allows lobbyists to write the laws, supports endless wars overseas, supports more government regulation, and generally overtaxes and overspends. This is an attempt to go back to the uni-party status quo. If it works, it will be the end of the Republican party.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, <a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2021\/02\/10\/wright-im-a-democrat-but-its-time-to-leave-the-party\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Daily Caller<\/a> posted an article yesterday from <a class=\"block text-black\" title=\"View More Articles By Bryan Dean Wright\" href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/author\/bwright\">Bryan Dean Wright<\/a><span class=\"inline-block font-light xl:text-sm\">, a Former CIA Officer.
