“I just find it weird that there’s so little discussion about the speaker election in conservative media.”
It’s probably because Conservatism, Inc. is in bed with GOP leadership.
Salem Media is part of that “official” conservatism and has bought up a lot of what once were independent conservative media properties. That’s one reason that we see less discussion than we used to. And the discussion that we do see tilts in favor of the GOP establishment.
I think you’re onto something. These giant companies have their goal as skewing the Republican party toward corporate welfare and subsidies for billionaires. Trump challenged their gravy train and they can’t have that.
