With the nation facing a major political crisis and the feckless GOP seemingly in disarray, it is time to firm-up the organizational chart and determine the leadership, the platform, and the messaging – and then hit it hard to prepare for the 2022 congressional election cycle.
There are more than a few significant problems. One, there is an open battle between the Establishment (McConnell, Romney, Rove, Bushies) and those that are more conservative (Cruz, Rand, Cotton). Two, the media wants to deflect from their past corruption and ongoing social justice initiatives that are crippling the country, so they attack the GOP. Three, the mainstream media needs the sensationalism of Trump to gain and maintain a declining audience. And four, the tech tyrants are continuing their censorship of the important issues of the day, including election integrity, political corruption, the embedded deep state, Biden’s performance, immigration, the pandemic, the assault on energy, and out-of-control spending, which amounts to fortifying progressive socialist democrat causes and organizations.
Trump?
Pros…
Name recognition
Significant and loyal following
America First Mantra
Significant accomplishments while under 24/7/365 attack
Democrat destruction of American institutions
Democrat destruction of beneficial Trump policies and replacement with social justice and radical socialist policies
Democrat destruction of our economy and unique American culture
Democrat pandering to our enemies
Democrat record of corruption bordering on treason
Cons…
Lack of focus and discipline
Unwilling to take advice
Undue influence of family members
History of dodgy associates
Vetting deficiencies and laziness in allowing Cintonistas and Obamacons to retain their positions
Unwillingness of top professionals to associate with Trump
Demeanor and behavioral issues
Targeted by the establishment wing of the GOP
Targeted by the media moguls
Targeted by the technology tyrants
Open legal cases
Inability to impose discipline on party members
Open fight with GOP House (Kevin McCarthy, R-CA) and Senate (Mitch McConnell, R-KY) leadership
Where do we go from here?
Who will lead the party? McConnell is for Mitch McConnell and the establishment, America be damned. Rand Paul is a fringe player. Ted Cruz is smart but hated. Marco Rubio is an establishment Bushie, Lindsey Graham can’t be trusted, Tom Cotton and Ron DeSantis are possibles.
What are our issues? We ceded the issue of fiscal responsibility. We lost the wealthy and corporate players to the democrats. The unions are unhappy but still Democratic supporters.
We have few communications options.
We have little legislative leverage.
We have second rate lawyers to pursue coordinated court actions.
Mitch McConnell is the enemy of conservatives...
McConnell Vows to Focus On‘Electability’ for 2022 Races
Now, with Republicans currently holding 50 Senate seats, making Vice President Kamala Harris the tie-breaking vote, McConnell is eyeing the 2022 midterms in order to take back the chamber from Democrats.
Members of Trump’s family and staunch supporters could potentially enter key2022 Senate races, including Lara Trump in North Carolina, Ivanka Trump in Florida, and Arizona GOP chairwoman Kelli Ward in her home state. Trump has also
threatened to back a primary challenger to Senator John Thune of South Dakota.
McConnell told Politico that he will support candidates based on their ability to win elections. “My goal is, in every way possible, to have nominees representing the Republican Party who can win in November [2022],” McConnell told Politico. “Some of them may be people the former president likes. Some of them may not be. The only thing I care about is electability.” McConnell added, “I’m not predicting the president would support people who couldn’t win. But I do think electability — not who supports who — is the critical point.” <Source>
It’s all about McConnell’s leadership position. He is willing to support progressive socialist democrats who want to cut the Democrat primary line, win as Republicans, and revert to their liberal roots. The sad thing is that, unlike the Democrats, the GOP leadership does have the cojones to beat them back in line or, like McConnell, Lindsey Graham or the late John McCain actually agree with the liberals. Knowing they can trade their support for some carve-out or pork that they can bring to their district to purchase local votes.
What good is holding a Senate majority that provides the key votes for the opposition? Specifically, Republican Senators Richard Burr of North Carolina, Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, Susan Collins of Maine, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Mitt Romney of Utah, Ben Sasse of Nebraska, and Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania – all voting to convict Trump on a bogus impeachment charge with falsified evidence.
Bottom line…
Most likely, Trump will demand a leadership role, and the trick will be to use his assets while avoiding the craziness. The idea of any Trump family member, all who lack real political experience, some who are stupid, crazymakers, and leakers, should be as abhorrent as choosing another reality star. We lucked-out with Trump who instinctively did the right thing. Next time, we may not be so lucky.
DO NOT GIVE ONE PENNY TO McCONNELL'S NATIONAL REPUBLICAN SENATORIAL COMMITTEE. The two lame bozos in Georgia were McConnell's picks -- and they lost to two radical Marxists, one a rabid open anti-White, anti-America, anti-Semite. Can you name the number two and number three people in the GOP leadership.
We are screwed.
