And so to the useful idiots and weak minded on FR. If anyone is in favor of “dumping” Trump at this point, they are a fool and easily manipulated.
Yeah, well Rush also said this: “Only Trump can end Trump.” Trump is doing it.
"The GOP Establishment Wants to Run Trump Out of Town [Nov 2020]"
While I admire DeSantis's leadership abilities, we know that street fighter Trump has what it takes to finish putting the swamp out of business. Patriots would be at greater risk of losing country to swamp if they put somebody other than Trump into the Oval Office in 2024 imo.
From related thread...
Regardless of who is in Oval Office, patriots may still not be up to speed with the federal government's constitutionally limited powers.
More specifically, while the idea of DeSantis doing for the country as POTUS what he has done for Florida is a great concept, it totally ignores that the delegates to the Constitutional Convention had intended for the country to thrive on 10th Amendment (10A)-protected state powers, not the federal government's very limited powers.
In fact, the congressional record shows that Rep. John Bingham, the main author of Section 1 of the 14th Amendment, had clarified that the delegates to the Constitutional Convention had left the lion's share of government power to serve the people to the states, not the federal government.
”Simply this, that the care of the property, the liberty, and the life of the citizen, under the solemn sanction of an oath imposed by your Constitution, is in the States and not in the federal government [emphases added]. I have sought to effect no change in that respect in the Constitution of the country.” —John Bingham, Congressional. Globe. 1866, page 1292 (see top half of third column)
Patriots need to get a grip on the constitutional reality that most federal government policy and spending is based on state powers, and state revenues uniquely associated with those powers, that the post-17th Amendment ratification, unconstitutionally big federal government has stolen, and continues to steal, from the states.
”From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added]. [...]” —United States v. Butler, 1936.
The corrupt feds steal state revenues by means of unconstitutional federal taxes, taxes that Congress cannot reasonably justify under its constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers.
"Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States." —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
Consider that Justice Louis Brandeis had introduced his "laboratories of democracy" metaphor to emphasize the 10A-protected power of the states to serve the people, ultimately depending on what legal majority citizen voters want.
"[...] a single courageous State may, if its citizens choose, serve as a laboratory; and try novel social and economic experiments without risk to the rest of the country." —Justice Louis Brandeis, Laboratories of Democracy.
Corrections, insights welcome.
1. GOP will never win without MAGA
2. GOP has not supported MAGA or Trump ever
3. MAGA contains many who never voted before Trump
4. MAGA contains many who hate politicians and the GOP
5. MAGA wants a fighter and the swamp drained
6. Many in MAGA will not vote for a candidate pushed by GOPe media and TDS.
Everything that is happening now will be the death of the GOP and MAGA - infighting, dem talking points, GOP agenda. That is their goal….since day one.
The GOP begrudgingly gave the Tea Party lip service, then watered it down, then killed it.
Winning doesn’t mean making things better, GOP history proves that. That’s how we got in this mess. The GOP was dead before Trump.
How does one post a picture?

“ "I have made a number of significant political contributions over the last three years, both at the state level and the national level.

“The GOP Establishment Wants to Run Trump Out of Town.”
Oh, so nothing’s changed.
Seems pretty obvious. Will DeSantis take the bait? He will lose if he does.

Like cockroaches.
GOPe = Democrat Lite = all massive big spenders/regulators.
Seems like Freepers are taking the bait.
Not just here. Plenty of other groups are also taking the bait. AR15.com is anti-Trump now. Unbelievable.
There is organized trolling going on to create the impression his base is turning against him.
“Seems like Freepers are taking the bait.”
It’ll dissipate.
Emotions are still hot over a somewhat disappointing mid term.
