This young man has great insight.
"A good read. A lot of background in the history over the last few decades. Thank you."
"This young man has great insight."
Yes and Yes!
This kind of actual journalism, which is in parallel to the guy at CTH, is very rare these days. Nothing like it appears at Fox or any MSM outlet, and the closest I can think of is with Michael Barone in years past, but nothing to this level of detail or honesty ( since Barone was at least partially owned by the GOPe ).
Cruzers better wake up to the fact that all of this firepower arrayed against Trump was meant for Cruz and all other Reagan pretenders. It could easily have been George Allen or Newt or Keyes or West or Bachmann or anyone else challenging the powers-that-be, the only reason Trump is receiving fire is that he is walking point. Cruz would have been toe-tagged already had it not been for Trump, that was the plan all along, and we would be far worse off today since not only would the immigration invasion have been back burner'd, but "conservatism" would have been vampire staked dead.
The truth is that thanks to Trump, Conservatism actually gets to live another day. Had Cruz been crushed by the Jeb roadmap, or worse, had he been nominated and crushed by Hillary, they would have their Goldwater part-2, the mother of all scapegoats to use to run Conservatives out of town on a rail again, for two decades like in 1964. Now Cruzers may or may not choose to face the reality of today, or continue dreaming that (C) has a fair chance against this massive (D)ummycrat and (R)epublicrat opposition. My guess is they will follow the idiocy seen in that pathetic Cruz speech earlier today.
These smokey backroom (R)epublicrat politics as a part of the uniparty is THE story to concentrate on. It is them versus us, but unlike years past, this is not just another battle. This scenario has played out many times in our history, notably 1796-1800, 1824, 1860-1865 and 1876. The only clear win for America there was after that 2nd American Revolution in 1796-1800 when Jefferson and Madison trounced the (F)ederalists, a close parallel to the uniparty of today, and ushered in republican values for a quarter century. The others, not so much. But this one today is different because after this one, it is all over but the crying because they will have solved all their ( uniparty ) problems with more amnesty and naturalization which replaces traditional natural-born American voters with 3rd world replacements. They have gotten their massive electoral college advantage in place, they have packed the cities with blue votes, they have the Supreme Court and they have almost the entire media. They also have taken enough states ( just 13 required ) to block nation-saving Constitutional Amendments
We are at the precipice today because the uniparty enemy has plugged almost all the holes now that can bring them down in the future. They almost have their bulletproof European Union style bureaucratic central elitist government. And this article as well as those at CTH demonstrate the lengths they are willing to go to achieve final victory. It is time to hit the "reset" button. And it really is now or never.
