This article would have made more sense after the 1992 election. “Reagan is over and Bush is a loser. Let’s find someone else and move on.”

The problem is that the Republican Party has spent the last 20+ years completely undermining its own credibility among its grassroots supporters. And the GOP did this by marching in lockstep with the Democratic Party on almost every major issue that mattered most to these supporters — from immigration to trade to ObamaCare to stupid endless wars in Third World dumps all over the globe.

Too bad they can’t use a directed energy weapon on DC. The entire place should be wiped off the map. The Nation’s capitol, heck the entire world would be better place. I wouldn’t miss any current politician, lobbyist or other grifter in that nasty city.
They’re screwing me, you and everyone they get their hands on. To be honest I sometime pray we get bombed, it’s the only way this country can be saved. I’m voting for Trump a 3rd time. I’m not confident my vote counts, I’m not confident he gets elected and chooses people that aren’t deep state for his cabinet and I’m certainly not confident that both sides of the political argument won’t be fighting each other before the election.
I’m pretty confident the demon party currently operating in the white hut have scheduled the start of ww3 in order to cancel elections. Hopefully I’m proven wrong.

They don’t get it. DeSantis doesn’t get it. Vivek is an opportunist who fakes understanding better than most but the others on the stage last night are establishment who don’t understand Trump’s policy appeal on blue collar conservatism and America First philosophy. They don’t get that he rose up because of their endless failures. DeSantis is helped by Bush, Frank Luntz was posting nice things about Nikki. Christy and Asa exist only to trash Trump. Tim Scott is a nice guy, loves his Bible and his mama but why is he running for POTUS?

I’ve said before DeSantis policy is the establishment version of MAGA. DeSantis looking around the room before raising his hand to supporting Trump if he’s the nominee is the clearest hint of the lack of authenticity that he projects. Trump is Trump, right or wrong but he’s self-possessed and authentic. DeSantis is yet another lawyer politician, Vivek is too, where we’re back to being baffled by poll-tested BS we have to parse. Can we not get authentic human beings to run for office? Go off script!

I agree entirely. At this point there was not a single person on the debate stage last night I trust. I like DeSantis but he is not ready for prime time. Neither was Reagan in his first Presidential run. At this moment it is Trump or nobody. Yet the GOPe either does not get that or they think we will follow another RINO Judas Goat like the good little conservative sheep we are.

Any conservative willing to remove their blinders will see what the RATS already showed us the way forward. Local elections are the key. We lose Trump, dump the GOP Senators and POTUS candidates, keep the House. House is where we can create the most chaos, but when you have McCarthy in charge it's all promises and no reach around, Get control of your State. Elect conservative AGs and Judges to go after Fed overreach. Screw Roberts, judges are party hacks and they make fools of his beloved judicial systems. NC as of 2022 is a perfect example of how to get conservatives in control. The Soros clan may be a despicable human beings, but they knew the power of owning AGs. Conservatives need to revolt if Trump is not on the ballot. I can understand low information voters who get all their info from CNN and the NY Rag Times, but most conservatives are conservatives by choice. Many, like myself, started out a RAT. Carter made me a conservative. Of the two I expect low information RATS to blindly follow the RAT leaders. What I do not get is “conservatives” blindly following the RINOs.
