Laying down the Marx-er? Trump sees a bright future for the GOP — as a workers party

For the love of God … what the actual hell is happening?!

Does he even know what that means?

Donald Trump is a yuge conservative. You won’t find a yuger conservative than him. And that’s why he’s vowing to push the Republican Party in a more conservative direction.

Just kidding!

More from Bloomberg Businessweek’s Joshua Green (emphasis ours):

I asked Trump what he thought the GOP would look like in five years. “Love the question,” he replied. “Five, 10 years from now—different party. You’re going to have a worker’s party. A party of people that haven’t had a real wage increase in 18 years, that are angry. What I want to do, I think cutting Social Security is a big mistake for the Republican Party. And I know it’s a big part of the budget. Cutting it the wrong way is a big mistake, and even cutting it [at all].”

A “worker’s party.” Well, gosh. What could be more conservative than that?

Perhaps these workers should, I don't know, unite. I've heard all they have to lose is their chains. https://t.co/N1HjlMTvfm

Well, if this is where the GOP is headed, there are gonna have to be some changes made:
