“post-Lara Trump’s retirement, the RNC has been useless nationwide.”

Back to standard operating procedures for the RNC.

That assumes there will be something after 2029 worth governing other than a smouldering crime-infested ruin. Cities do die.

The "No Kings" movement needs a subsidiary. "No Sultans

- The meaning of SULTAN is a king or sovereign especially of a Muslim state.

He's changed a lot and might have even voted for Trump in 2024.

As an aside, I find it ironic that the woke mob protested with their "NO KINGS" movement, yet also demanded "RESTORE VENEZUALA'S DICTATOR."

Their stupidity is astounding.

Color me shocked if he has truly transformed his heretofore ugly persona.

He was Rob Schmitt's show a several months ago:

Michael Rapaport, did you vote Trump?: Rob Schmitt

He filmed a video and posted it of all the theft going on in NYC.

And, he despises the pro-Hamas protesters and Mamdani and very outspoken against both.

Let’s put up the most obnoxious, dysgenic, nasally voiced New Yawker as the face of the party...these people who switched votes to Trump over a single issue are not suddenly doctrinaire conservatives.
