RSC Chairman Jim Banks: ‘We’re Building the Consensus Conservative Agenda’ to Bring GOP Back to Power
Breitbart ^ | February 25 2021 | MATTHEW BOYLE

Posted on 02/26/2021 1:51:51 AM PST by knighthawk

ORLANDO, Florida — Republican Study Committee (RSC) chairman Rep. Jim Banks (R-IN), someone who was first elected in 2016 alongside President Donald Trump and has since risen to lead the largest organization of conservative lawmakers in Congress, told Breitbart News in a lengthy exclusive interview that he intends to help flesh out the Trump agenda after the former president’s exit from office and to use that to help push the GOP further in the right direction.

When Republicans are focused on policy, and not personality, Banks said, they win. And Banks wants to lead the GOP’s efforts to frame a new agenda designed to take all the good parts of Trump’s policies and “marry” them with the good parts of the traditional conservative movement. Banks, who will host a panel with House GOP leader Kevin McCarthy here at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) on Saturday, is setting out to throw his weight around the RSC to push the party in a much more populist direction, following Trump’s lead on issues like immigration, China, and trade policy.

Study Norman Rockwell's illustrations, not his life.

Rockwell was the first MEME-er and even if we didn't see Rockwell until after his time, his illustrations were too close to having been a photograph of our own American lives.


This



Is not today's alphabet world news, this is only in America.

And if we didn't have it, we wanted it.

What are some traditional conservative ideals? Endless wars ? Open borders ? Moving jobs to China ?

The GOP is dead. They refused to support President Trump at every level, except for a handful of conservatives. Bye bye GOP. You are toast.

Dear Chairman, they cheated and manufactured votes out of thin air, elections are over if we don’t reverse what happened and prosecute those who are guilty.

The thing was, the America in that painting did exist, for about 25 years (until 1970), and then people like the young adults in the painting (whose parents did not bother warning their kids just how evil humans can be to each other, since they wanted to ‘protect them’) went to universities dominated by Communists, and started their march to power, and now we’re at the brink of some kind of bloodbath here - no clue who will be doing the killing or who will be getting killed, or which side will come out on top, but the hate level on the Left is in place for a bloodbath, without a doubt.

“We have to return the Republican Party to being the party of fiscal responsibility..."

When has the Republican Party ever been the party of fiscal responsibility?

it all starts in the local precincts...with “clean elections” first

that process starts in the ground roots of our communities
-not from some policy makers in DC hoping for a few somebodies to sling dollars their way

“RSC Chairman Jim Banks: ‘We’re Building the Consensus Conservative Agenda’ to Bring GOP Back to Power”

Until you steal or buy the Dominion “Vote Theft Knob™“ you ain’t gonna do jack. GOP voters could line up around the block on election day...and every vote will be converted to a Dem vote.

Why would anyone equate the GOP with conservatism? The first two years of Trump’s presidency we had both houses of congress and what did it get us? They sided with the the Dems on everything but judicial nominations and now I think even that was just political theater.

Avoiding taking on the steal is like losing your car keys in an alley but deciding to look for them in your living room because the light is better.

Perfect analogy. Heck...that would be a great slogan to put on a t-shirt.

Yes, I know they did, I was born in 1948, and your comment is close to MY reasoning about how we got HERE.

We were actually educated through a good public school SYSTEM.

1950's President Eisenhower came into office a successful WW2 general with a lot of wisdom.

He recognized the need for a common educational structure and an advanced transportation system.

So under Ike, we consolidated the one room schoolhouse and built amazing highways, opening us up to the muscle car era ... but that's another topic.

By the early 60's, the powers that be were getting nervous about smart Jerry Rubin's and agitating Abby Hoffman's and the turmoil coming out of the (still) American universities .... and a lot of common sense was being developed and broadcast so (Here's where my own opinion kicks in) they invented a war to kill off as many of America's best and brightest to relieve the presumed pressure.

It worked, a lot of young men and women were killed in a conflict, never termed a war, and we were re-booted into the cyber world they never expected to really educate us (Do you see the common denominator in all of this).

In the early sixties they murdered our leader(s), THEIR spiritual advisor, and then locked us in the church and set fire to it (a tribute to a scene in The Patriot) ...........

(JFK, RFK, MLK jr, Viet Nam)

So here we are looking at the same Satanic insanity by powers that CAN be abused to kill us (abortion is sacrifice to Molech), and because the subliminal process to destroy anything to do with a Jesus church has been successful, no one sees the Satanic influence that has brought America to her knees.
