Linda, he’s on the other team.
How long do these creeps have to hang around ...take your tomahawk missile money and get lost Linda.
FU Linda. Ignore this punk. He’s nothing but scheming little rat saboteur.
Linda and platform in the same sentence!!! Lolololol!!!
Everyone ignores ‘the platform’ after the convention anyhow... isn’t it a ‘bean counter’ type of document? Then again, Trump should be able to add to and subtract from in some incremental ways...
If the GOP makes it about abortion,women will carry the corpse over the finish line. Keeping it simple with border, economy and law and order is the key.
There is no need to include abortion. That issue has been relegated to the states.
LOL 😂
I have to agree with Lindsey on the pro-life issue.
The only issue is populism.
Drain the Swamp. Eradicate elites.
There Is No Other Issue.
If you want elites to stay, you are GOPe and can talk about other things.
The Tariff
We reaffirm our belief in the protective tariff to extend needed protection to our productive industries. We believe in protection as a national policy, with due and equal regard to all sections and to all classes. It is only by adherence to such a policy that the well being of the consumers can be safeguarded that there can be assured to American agriculture, to American labor and to American manufacturers a return to perpetrate American standards of life. A protective tariff is designed to support the high American economic level of life for the average family and to prevent a lowering to the levels of economic life prevailing in other lands.
In the history of the nation the protective tariff system has ever justified itself by restoring confidence, promoting industrial activity and employment, enormously increasing our purchasing power and bringing increased prosperity to all our people.
The tariff protection to our industry works for increased consumption of domestic agricultural products by an employed population instead of one unable to purchase the necessities of life. Without the strict maintenance of the tariff principle our farmers will need always to compete with cheap lands and cheap labor abroad and with lower standards of living.
The enormous value of the protective principle has once more been demonstrated by the emergency tariff act of 1921 and the tariff act of 1922.
We assert our belief in the elastic provision adopted by congress in the tariff act of 1922 providing for a method of readjusting the tariff rates and the classifications in order to meet changing economic conditions when such changed conditions are brought to the attention of the president by complaint or application.
Not sure what is being discussed in changes, but if they back the platform away from its defense of Life against abortion in any way, it could be potentially devastating to pro-life voters.
May of which will stay home like they did with Romney who was pro-choice.
Stupid I know, but it could cause Trump to lose a good part of the base.
Let me guess … this 60-page GOP platform includes lots of platitudes about “fiscal responsibility” and “a balanced budget.” And yet the last 20+ years have demonstrated to us that there are few people in government who are LESS fiscally responsible than the big-government, globalist Republicans who have dominated the party for decades.
You’re not in charge, Linda, so shaddup.
We’ve really got to monitor this guy/gal. Won’t do any good except perhaps in ‘26 when he’s up again. Perhaps he’ll take himself out as I don’t see anyone stepping up, not even a change for changes-sake candidate. Problem is his successor will be someone like Nancy Mace. Then there’s Tim Scott. He has other fish to fry. Replacing 2 of them over 2 years might put stress on the party with no incumbents. Who’s in line? The senate is beneath Nikki.
2026-we need to take out Cassidy in La. Impeachment vote. Who’s step-in up? He’s gotta be pressured long beforehand to quit. Would it work? It would help if the rats posted a strong candidate.
Exactly, the repeal of R v. W makes it a non-federal issue. Stick to the stuff the Feds are doing to screw us.
He's bringing it up to help Democrats.
Pro-lifers must win the battle at the state level and in the trenches, at abortion clinics.
