Al should have told me to what he is responding.

The voters are MAGA but the deep state still owns and operates The GOP. Just look at them. Trump will have the same problems with support in Washington that he’s had and continues to have but with one difference, the donor class appears to be turning more to Trump these days. Let’s see how much difference that makes.

I see the republican party as being in transition. No puberty blockers needed. It's transitioning from the establishment Grand Old Party into the people's Grand New Party. It's a slow process that will take at least one generation, maybe more but thanks to America First doctrine, the transition has gotten legs and is marching toward a better future.

Everyone knows Rino's are all about themselves and catering to their big money donors and that's the problem with the GOPe. It serves the wealthy without serious consideration of the people that make the rich, rich. As rino's are purged out through attrition or because they see they can't be re-elected as Liz Cheney and Kinzingstupid found out. Spitting on the very people who bought their invitation to the party is never a winning strategy.

My hope is the GNP is a party where the cream rises to the top instead of how the turds in the GOPe and democrat party do. Where good solid America First patriot politicians care more about their constituents than their donors and makes that perfectly clear. Yes, this is a balancing act because it takes money to get elected and reelected but it is doable. If done right the masses will send in millions of small donations to make it possible. Perhaps the big money donors can start acting like constituents instead of politician owners.

McConnell, Lindsey Graham, John Cornyn

Name one in the leadership that is not of the same ilk. There is a reason Mitch maintains his leadership position, same in the House no real Conservative has a chance at Leadership roll. Newt was a fluke, a mistake like that will not be repeated any time soon.

Does no one remember the totally corrupt Congress using the House Post Office to supplement their income, or how the House bank worked? Even Jimmy Carter was involved in the BCCI bank scandal.

My best friend and I were just talking about it last night. We have been faithfully voting for a bunch of weak spined losers our whole lives. In all the years we’ve voted for them they’ve never really done anything. That’s why we are in this terrible fix now.

There were no Bushes, no Cheneys, no Paul Ryan, (no McCains), and no Mitt Romney

This nation owes President Donald J Trump an unfathomable debt for derailing the Bush and Clinton dynasties.

the problem with the GOPe. It serves the wealthy without serious consideration of the people that make the rich, rich.

The rich have done way better under Biden than any president in my memory. People may not have noticed but the Uber rich are almost exclusively democrat woke with few exceptions. Name a corporation that has not bought into DEI or LGBTQ+ crap. Even Elon is a recent convert.

That's a negative good buddy.

John Deere, Tractor Supply, and Microsoft has learned DEI doesn't work. I suspect this will be the norm across the corporate world as they realize being Bud Lighted does not work for their bottom line.

As far as corporations doing better under biden, I can't speak to that but it defies common sense. The average person has less disposable income due to bidinflation so products are not being sold that would normally be sold.

This is a HUGE difference from 2016…first the party is Trump’s party…the “hostile” takeover is complete. The second, somewhat connected, part is that this time Trump has a fully developed governing team ready to go.

The difference is massive.

Did you ever watch the Hunger Games videos?

Their depiction of the people who live in the Capitol has become our reality.

No it doesn’t. Populism isn’t one political ideology. It’s a form of “the will & whims of the majority” easily changing and morphing from day to day. Very akin to akin to pure democracy. The founders despised it and warned of it.
It has an empty value system that sits in a vacuum waiting to be filled in.
It can be very dangerous.

That’s a hard sell.

He keeps endorsing them.

One of his biggest downsides.

He performs much better when solid conservatives have his ear.

I think it happened behind the scenes too among the county/state GOP committee people. That’s the only thing that explains Ronna being replaced and Lara Trump getting the #2 position in the RNC without much of a fight.

MAGA now owns the machine.

And don't forget the governors, also the state houses/senates.

Here in MO, we've got some grass roots MAGA types slowly infiltrating the RINO establishment but need a lot more of them and that will take time. Aug 6th will be a good tell tale of how much progress is being made.

That's a negative good buddy.

What was Elon saying three years ago? John Deere, Tractor Supply, and Microsoft has learned DEI doesn't work. I suspect this will be the norm across the corporate world

John Deer has been making junk for a while now and are simply trying to recoup by moving to Mexico, I doubt it will help. They may say they are dumping DEI, unfortunately most will say they are dropping it but the woke corporatists will carry on. Tractor Supply sounded serious in their apology but how many of those responsible for installing their woke policy were fired?

As far as corporations doing better under Biden, I can't speak to that but it defies common sense.

Didn’t say corporations I said the Rich, stats that show that are plentiful.
