Journalist from major paper suggests ‘burning down’ entire republican party

This is the sort of intellectual fascism that we must reject at all costs.

Another day, another bombastic and violent bit of rhetoric aimed at President Donald Trump and the republican party.

For the duration of Donald Trump’s political career, the New York City-based businessman has been under attack.  The liberal side of the American political spectrum is simply repulsed by his populist ideals and, as such, have fomented a “resistance” to any-and-all-thing Trump – including the republican party itself.

Now, in this new nation of progressive dog whistles and violent hyperbole, one journalist from the Washington Post has a simple and crude bit of vitriol to add to the mix.

Washington Post opinion writer Jennifer Rubin pushed for Americans to work together to “burn down the Republican party” in the hopes of extinguishing any trace of the enthusiasm for President Trump.

Rubin appeared on MSNBC’s “AM Joy” Sunday and said that not only does Trump have to lose in 2020, but there must be a purging of “survivors” who still support the commander-in-chief.

“It’s not only that Trump has to lose, but that all his enablers have to lose,” she said. “We have to collectively, in essence, burn down the Republican Party.”

“We have to level them because if there are survivors — if there are people who weather this storm, they will do it again.”

Rubin went on to say that a reelection for Donald Trump in 2020 would likely embolden members of the party to continue to “ride the waves” of a Trump presidency, again implying that the GOP is simply going along with the President for the sake of scoring political points.
