Trump forces muscle out GOP old guard in Nevada
Djtnn.com ^ | 10/15/21

Posted on 10/15/2021 5:34:21 PM PDT by cotton1706

The animosity between Silberkraus’ Clark County faction and the state party chair erupted earlier this year, after the Republican Party’s state central committee voted to censure Nevada’s Republican secretary of state, Barbara Cegavske, for “failing to investigate” Trump’s baseless allegations of widespread voter fraud. Clark County Republicans accused McDonald, a Trump ally, of improperly influencing the vote by adding extremist members to the county’s roster.

McDonald said he did nothing improper, casting the dispute as one between grassroots Republicans and two county parties — in Clark and Washoe — where entrenched leaders wanted to “keep it like a country club.” McDonald said Jesse Law, the former Trump campaign staffer who is now recognized by the state party as the Clark County chair, has swelled attendance at membership meetings, and he promised to counter-sue the pre-existing Republican group for its “frivolous lawsuit.”

McDonald also maintained the party will not suffer next year for the current upheaval. The Clark and Washoe county leadership, he said, were “anchors” on the party that are “now pulled up.”

“This young group is coming in, these people who have never been involved before, and they’re looking at the policies that President Trump had, and that’s what’s driving them,” he said.

Allies of Michael Kadenacy, the Washoe party chair who resigned, see the fallout far differently. One of them described it as the “hair-on-fire crowd” now seizing control of the party.

Still, McDonald is expected to win reelection on Saturday if a court does not intervene.

In Washoe County, the party’s future leadership is uncertain. The local party has appointed a temporary chair, who did not respond to a request for comment.

The Trump/Russia collusion delusion was truly baseless and they pounded that drum for years.

The election shenanigans were clearly evident.

I have a feeling and hope this is happening all across the country. MAGA taking over the behind the scenes part of the GOP.

I believe you are correct.

The old GOP thought things were just going to go back the way they were before Donald Trump. Not so. They are running scared and already spending a quarter million dollars on anti-Trump billboards. All over the USA President Trump is stronger than ever.

"Donald Trump make little baby Kristol cry."

Trump’s baseless allegations of widespread voter fraud.

Baseless allegations? I assume this dude is involved in the coverup.

One should refrain from using euphemisms like “shenanigans” when referring to alleged criminal activity.

You are correct.

The criminal activity is clearly evident.
We have some of it on video from GA and MI.

The expression "baseless allegations" has become a stock phrase in the lexicon of US propaganda outlets, just like the "running dogs of imperialism" in Pravda or Izvestia.

I hate to tell everyone, but MacDonald has a rack of skeletons in his closet. I know he is in Trump’s good graces, but he is not someone to trust with the crown jewels.

It’s a lot of old Vegas stuff. Look up his good friend, mob boss and titty bar owner Rick Rizzolo (who was in turn good buddy to Chicago Mafioso Joey the Clown Lombardo).

I am amazed at how many “impeach biden” and “trump 2024” flags and signs I see here in central ny state. NY is lost for any person in the GOP, but I believe that bodes very well for financial support a trump supporting candidate will get from my area.

This excerpt is so poorly written that I can’t figure out which side is my side. Anyone familiar with this can give me a short recap. I just know old GOP and Trump GOP are battling.

Considering the Nevada GOP is about as worthless as the AZ GOP, any change is probably an improvement.

Both are being transformed from the grassroots up. It’s exciting to be part of the new blood. Stay tuned.

This has been happening in several states. RINOs are losing at the grass level. The real slaughter begins next year.

So I can’t call the ‘insurrection’ a kerfuffle?

....................................
Funny! I like that word, “kerfuffle”. I googled it, curious as to its origin: Fuffle was first used in Scottish English, as early as the 16th century, as a verb meaning “to dishevel.” Later it evolved into a noun with the addition of the prefix “ker”.
