Outflank the Uniparty - Article V

Subtitle: Court and Country. Article V opponents and some proponents view the Article V COS movement through the lens of our national political parties. The time is long past to dislodge oneself from this paradigm. To remain in this mindset is unhelpful at best, and destructive at worst, because the two national parties are one Uniparty incapable of reforming the racket that serves its members so well.

Professor Angelo M. Codevilla coined the term, “Uniparty” in 2013. His explosive article nudged many conservatives to accept what they long suspected, that among the top echelons of the two parties there is little difference between their public policy goals. What joins the GOP and Democrat parties overwhelms their minor differences. Instead of public cage-fights over strongly held principles, what we see has more in common with professional wrestling; the contest is rigged, and rigged in the Democrats’ favor. As junior members of the Uniparty, the GOP often suffers barbs from media and harassment from conservatives, yet its members are still paid very well in salary, wealth, and prestige, just like the democrats. Why change?

As Codevilla wrote: “The Uniparty, the party of government, the party of Ins, continues to consist of the same people. The Outs are always the same people too: American conservatives.” Recent events brought Codevilla’s theory into focus, as the Uniparty establishment fights tooth and nail, not only in opposition to President Trump’s reforms, but openly toward his early removal from office, by any means necessary.

There is a broader historical concept that wraps around Professor Codevilla’s Uniparty, which Article V supporters should use to their advantage.

Excellent article.
One point ought to be made though, and that is that the courts need to be solidly smacked down; just as you said that history shows attackers generally defeated when defenders get to choose the time and place of the battle, the 'place' that much of our corrupt government "fights" the battle is in the courts. Remember Sen. Murtha and his slander and how the courts gave him immunity from the law? It's a specific instance of the Uniparty/elite protecting its own.
