Beware that some of the “MAGA” winners will be flipped by the party machine. Look what happened to a lot of the Tea Party people who got elected. Let that sink in.
I hope and pray that doesn’t happen.....
Make no mistake, the GOP has a very powerful and effective apparatus whose function is to gain control over newly elected representatives. Its a continuous process that never ends. Its one of the few things the party is consistently “good” at doing.
I hope the newcomers will eventually see this for what it is and put a stop to it if not now in the very near future.
There will be no changes in leadership. The party is what it is.
And that is a problem that I hope is seen and destroyed like yesterday!!!
Newly elected reps quickly learn that money is the life blood of politics. The party machinery controls a lot of money and decides who gets it. It also has other incentives and penalties it can apply to encourage people to get with the program. THEIR program.
The GOP is in no way a conservative party. It just talks that way for self-serving reasons. A genuine conservative party would be pushing relentlessly for smaller government, less spending, lower debt, and more personal freedoms. Such a party would also fight the Dems vigorously on every single issue.
We do not have a party like that at all. The same old tired and weak GOP “leadership” will still be in charge after the election. That tells you all you need to know about the party.
