Fox News host Sean Hannity railed against the Republican Party on Monday night, citing its failure to repeal and replace ObamaCare and referring to it as a "dead party."
During an interview on SiriusXM 125, Hannity blasted the Republican Party, saying they never had any intention of repealing and replacing ObamaCare.
Heres my view on the Republican Party, Hannity said to "Breitbart News Tonight" special edition host Stephen Bannon, President Trump's former White House strategist. It is a dead party. They are morally corrupt, they are weak ... They are ineffective, theyre vision-less, and they have no identity.
Hannity said he doesn't believe he's ever changed politically, but he said he thinks the Republican Party left him.

Hannity Blasts ABC News For Erroneous Flynn Report: Journalism in America Is Dead
by Justin Baragona | 10:32 pm, December 4th, 2017
You just knew Fox News Sean Hannity was going to have a field day with Brian Ross major screwup. And at the end of a lengthy Monday night monologue devoted to the latest revelations in the Mueller probe, Hannity did just that, tearing into the ABC News reporter for spreading fake news.
As we often say on the show, we are not the Destroy Trump Media, Hannity exclaimed. And if you are watching at home, have no doubts about fake news now being a clear, present danger to the Trump administration. They are the willing accomplices in all of this. He continued, And we have an example that should make you a believer. Its scary, its real, and it proves what weve been saying on this program since 2008. Journalism in America is dead.
The Fox News host went on to play clips of Ross original report in which he said Flynn would testify that then-candidate Trump told him to contact Russians and the subsequent correction that ABC News ran later that evening. He followed that up by highlighting how quickly Ross report spread before the correction, stating that even though Ross was eventually suspended for four weeks, it was too little, too late.
One should note that months after Fox News retracted its false report on slain DNC staffer Seth Rich, it still has not announced any disciplinary actions or punishment related to it. Furthermore, Hannity devoted numerous broadcasts to hyping up the conspiracy.

(19,962 posts)the RWNJs in their party, you may see a split into a new Republican Party and a 3rd Party made up of Tea Party/Libertarians. However, they know they'd be giving away power to the Democrats for a long time if that happened.
