White House Deputy Chief of Staff James Blair is President Trump’s primary enforcer. He ensures that the Republicans on Capitol Hill follow orders and that the MAGA agenda is carried out.
“Sometimes you can vote your conscience, other times you have to vote with the boss,”

Like your comment and like your tagline. Excellent.
**I think Republicans at every level should see Trump as a generational opportunity.**
Very good. The best comment yet.
**Lee Atwater was a terrible man. Absolutely without scruples.****“I am sorry for both statements: (Dukakis and the Willie Horton Ad)**
The Willie Horton ad was true. Ask Al Gore. The flag burning I don’t know. It proved Kitty Dukakis was not ready for prime time either as she tried to off herself.
**Will the Republicans use Irina Zuruska or that horrible trucking accident or any other illegal who killed an America? Nope**
They 100% should. Show her beautiful pic. Just don’t show the perp. Night not do any good as the former rat gov is ahead but you do it anyway. George Floyd was a waste of human skin. Who’s gonna say that? Should we get lucky and keep the seat the NC GOP should air the ad again with both pics just to rub it in.
That statement is so ignorant. So with thousands of constituents you are going to do whatever they tell you to do right? SURE YOU ARE! It doesn’t work like that Einstein. An intelligent Representative is sent to represent his District. You do not have thousands of bosses to tell you what to do! An ignorant person who is elected will go into his role thinking he can change the world with his voting no on every issue. He cannot when he is only one person. You have to use your brain with your heart representing people. The fact that the lefties love Massie and have been campaigning for him show you that he is valued for his obstructionism. He is a Trump hater and that is his greatest asset to the left. We will soon see him on the View and probably MSNOWDNC as well. Who knows he may get a gig at CNNDNC.
Log rolling, compromise has been the way things get done in the past.
Congress Critter used to bargain: I feel strongly about pro life; I’m only weakly opposed to spending more money. You are the opposite. You are weakly pro-abort and strongly for spending more money. I’ll vote for the issue you feel strongly about if you vote for the issue I feel strongly about.
Also, I’ll vote for your wasteful spending if you vote for my wasteful spending.
When these compromises don’t happen, nothing gets done.
Big pharma can switch back and forth between supporting Republicans and Democrats based on who is going to help them the most.
Big tech can switch back and forth between supporting Republicans and Democrats based on who is going to help them the most.
The Israeli lobby can switch back and forth between supporting Republicans and Democrats based on who is going to help them the most.
The big banks can switch back and forth between supporting Republicans and Democrats based on who is going to help them the most.
Donald Trump himself can switch back and forth between supporting Republicans and Democrats based on who is going to help them the most.
I wonder if it’s time that America First, anti-war, pro-Christian, Nationalists ALSO start switching. If the Republicans are going to abandon us, maybe it’s time to try something new.
So, you think that Democrats don’t do this? As stayed above, they vote as a block which is why they win a lot of the time. They look at the bigger picture. We need to save our country—that’s the principle to stand on.
Yeah...I know
As I said on another thread, there's something very rotten in the minds of many people on this site when Thomas Massie is treated like enemy number one while Alan Dershowitz is regarded as a hero. This despite the fact that Dershowitz is a good buddy to Epstein and a lifelong activist for leftists causes like gun control, while Massie is a principled Constitutionalist.
It seems like the only issues that matter are unconditional support of Israel and unconditional sycophancy towards Trump (in that order), actual policies and ideology be damned!
What was supposed to happen to you if you didn’t make any money and still felt unhappy?
