does anyone see the republican party turning nationalist?

You're on to something in general, I think. This could happen if the masses who vote Republican begin electing their own into high office in large numbers (rather than the typical elite corporate insider who is the stereotypical republican officeholder these days). This is already starting to happen in some ways with the Tea Party movement and such, but I have no idea if it will continue.

are there socialist teapartiers?

I suspect a substantial percent of them happily draw Social Security.

I'd say a larger percent are unhappy about it than among eligible non-teapartiers the same age.

It must be very easy for them to say that, but very hard for their actions to prove it. 4 years ago, they were stirred almost to violence when someone even attempted to slightly alter some of their age-based entitlements.

You mean an enraged mob of teapartying senior citizens tried to kill Paul Ryan?
