The internet has been important, but who do you think the Republican nominee would have been had Trump not entered the race? Which of the globalist Republicans would have been the nominee?
There were no non-globalist candidates other than Trump.
When the people are ready a leader will appear. If not Mr Trump, who? You perhaps.
The reason Trump could enter the race, and end run around the establishment was because of the internet. It isn’t just important, it utterly saved our freedom.
Its not as fun, but it’s even more critical than guns. In fact, one wonders why the founders didn’t make an Amendment before the 2nd, regarding free speech and journalism.... Oh, wait....
Those guys were smart. Free speech is the first freedom for a reason. Used well it can even allow you avoid the blunt force violence implied by the 2nd.
