I think about how the GOP-e leadership on the Hill has blasted Tea Party conservatives and the “up-start” “meddling” “outside” “fringe” groups that support them.
Makes you think real hard about who you contribute to - when you read Jeffrey Lord’s list - contributors who give with ease to both the GOP-e and the Dems.
I have to conclude that the “outside” groups don’t want their donations going into a GOP-e/Dem political slush fund, but rather to support true Tea Party conservatives.
It also makes me think real hard about why elected Republicans refuse to campaign against an incumbent in the primary - it would seem that the GOP-e doesn’t want to dip into that slush fund, if they don’t have to.
The only answer is to donate to individual candidates, using recommendations of groups as guidance but doing ones own research.
The one group I do trust is NumbersUSA. They're one-issue EVerify and stopping illegals from getting to and being in the US. I suspect their 100% rating to Brat has more to do with his victory than the ptb want to admit.
