Moderation in what?
Moderation hasn’t won them anything. As Trump said, “What have you got to lose?” btw Hispanics love a caudillo.
This strategy has always been the operational method of the GOP, back to Goldwater and Reagan. Never works. But they know that.
GOP leaders don’t want to lose their place at the globalist table.
That’s always been the problem with “conservative”. They’re held by the tyranny of the status quo”. “Conserve” the status quo.
How stupid. The status quo is corrupt and the gov’t is almost altogether unconstitutional and freedom is being violated continuously.
We need to BLOW UP THE STATUS QUO!!!!
The DNC sure doesn’t believe in it.
There. Fixed it.
California gave us Nancy Pelosi, Maxine Waters, Eric Swalwell, Adam Schiff, Kamela Harris, and a boatload of other incompetent moronic extremists - I don’t have a whole lot of confidence that Californians know what the word “moderate” means.
Oh, let’s listen to the CA GOP party leaders. They have such an amazing record of success over the past 30 years!
Here’s how it works....
Firstly...all the cultural institutions attack true Conservatives (for many many decades).....”the far Right”....”the far far Right”.....”the Christian far far far Right”....the Christian Nationalist far far far far Right”
Secondly.....the GOP Establishment uses this anti Conservative rhetoric to get weak moderate GOP leaning Centrists agitated.....”Dammit.. those crazy Right wingers are gonna cost us a win for Team R....They’re totally out of touch with most of the country”
That’s the Uniparty two step! Sole purpose of the GOP Establishment is to twist the arms of true Conservatives behind our backs while putting a chloroform dipped rag over our mouths
GOP candidates in my neck of the woods go out of their way to state America First on all their collateral.
Even for local city and county offices.
My guess is the Republican party will win many seats in MAGA2024. Trump may even win in California, although large percentage of Republicans must’ve moved.
TRUMP.
There is no other.
“I won’t send donations anymore” sung to the tune of “you don’t send me flowers anymore”.
It would explain why the politicians from here with an (R) behind their name generally are nothing more than a moderate democrat.
The NEW RIGHT!
60 years ago, in San Francisco, Republican Presidential candidate Barry Goldwater declared “Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice . . . moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue.” Names change, but his statement rings true.
GOP moderation in CA looks a lot like the dhimmicrap postions in most of the rest of the country.
Party leaders are there for the benefits, and prefer to not rock the boat against Democrats, in exchange for being allowed a share of the graft.
Party leaders are Deep State.
