Unsucking the Republican Party

Original Article

Posted By: ladydawgfan, 5/27/2021 1:35:28 AM

Funny ol’ world . . . I dashed off my last piece for American Greatness in a single, sleep-deprived frenzy of frustration (three decades in the making) after a long night of musical rehearsals. As I pushed “send,” I could barely remember what I’d written. Sixty seconds later, I was asleep. To my astonishment, “The Republican Party Sucks” wound up as American Greatness’s top feature article that week. Positive comments began flooding my inbox. Thousands reposted it. Over 50,000 people read it per day. Steve Bannon called me a few days after it came out to tell me how much he liked it.

A follow-up to his previous article, this one is just as well done!!

We need a new, non-corrupt party. Not a reconstituted, recycled bunch of lying thieves. President Trump had the opportunity to create a new party, and blew it. The Republicans have lost many, just like me. Irrecoverably.

In my 20's I naively thought the Republicans were the opposition to the increasingly communist democrats. They weren't. At best they slowed things down. At worst they were in on it. There is no political party today that gives even one hoot about freedom.

#2 it's the fiefdom that is important! I think that "term limits" is the only remedy to the corruption that is our government.

A Senator serving his/her final 6 years, because of term limits, could hurt the Country more than one serving 30 years. They can do whatever they want since they don't need to pretend anymore. They will also have a big say in who replaces them. It is you and I that keep electing these morons. Put the blame where it belongs. We can term limit anyone we want by not voting for them. I do not want to term limit Ted Cruz or Rand Paul. Term limits is the lazy mans way to oust a politician, including the good ones. Get off your butts and do it the old fashion way, get involved and then vote em out.

Spot on. We need a message--and a positive one at that. America is the last best hope for freedom in the world. We were founded on those principles. You know that old saying about, "If a child lives with criticism, he learns to dislike himself...". Well, the democrat party is criticizing a large part of the electorate, with thugs like BLM and Antifa to back them up. It's about time we remembered we have a voice, too; before we're too cowed to act.

After my service time I had to be in a party since I never voted democrat at 21 it was the republican club. I'm just fed up with the handle or label on my voting voucher "republican" after their display after Nov. 4th and follow up days. I'm now officially partyless. At over seventy I'm now wandering until something happens but I'm in favor of dumping republicans and starting a new party but I doubt that will happen. The republican brand is now tainted so why revive it let them shrivel on the vine.

I agree PDJT lost a great opportunity when he didn't move forward with starting a new party right away instead of fixing the Republican party. I was willing to suffer the consequences for as long as it took to get the conservative ship righted and I know there were many millions just like me. Now, I don't know if anyone is still interested. Re term limits for our electeds - it will never, in a million years, happen. Dream on.

Here's the solution: 1. Term Limits - yes. But wait... 2. All candidates for any party must be selected by lottery, just like you would for jury duty. This would hold true from local dog-catcher, clear up to President. The jury pool would hold a convention to select their candidates for various offices. They would settle on a party platform and run for office. An incumbent could run for 1 additional term in office. Frankly, I think a panhandle on the street could run most elected positions better than the entitled creeps in there now. Fire all the life-time unelected positions and have each department hire temps for their terms of office. And I think we'll do just fine.

#2, I’m having trouble reconciling your assertion that Trump “blew it” and with him gaining 17% more votes in ‘20 than in ‘16. How do you arrive at your assessment?

Note: my above solution would require Civics Classes going into the future as a requirement from graduating High School. All those in the jury pool better have the chance to learn what our country was founded on, and what it aspires to be - and that ain't 1619 project, which is the Jamestown (and Democrat) vision of America. We have always publicly aspired to the Plymouth Rock vision, and its successor: 1776.

#10 - Pres Trump had the opportunity to creat a new party. He blew it when he chose not too do so, and to remain a part of the Republican Party. Personally, I am as unlikely to vote for a Republican at this point as I am for a Democrat. There are lots of people like me. He had the chance to give We The People control.. instead, he chose to allow the same Oligarchy to lead the day. He’s trying to rebuild on a failed foundation think our next generation of political representatives needs to be of the common man, not the elitist scum who tell us one thing, and then do another, and I don’t see that changing without starting over.

Beauty influencer Amanda Ensing has filed a defamation lawsuit against the makeup giant Sephora after they very publicly cut ties with her for being a Christian conservative in January. The makeup shop responded to liberal activists who were outraged that they would dare to work with a Republican by saying that she “shared content on social media that is not aligned with Sephora’s values around inclusivity.” Ensing posts family friendly beauty content mixed with some posts about her Christian conservative views — such as her support for the Second Amendment.

Days ago, I was honored to spend time with President Trump for an exclusive one-on-one interview on my nationally- syndicated radio show, “Wayne Allyn Root: Raw & Unfiltered” on USA Radio Network. Before I get to the most important game-changer to come out of that interview, I’d like to get one thing out of the way. Just having this interview proves how wrong Democrats, liberals and assorted Marxist fools are about America. Most Democrats today are America-haters and national anthem kneelers. They find only fault with America. They see our history as negative. They see our country as “racist.”

Once again, Joe Biden is trying to rewrite history by crediting his administration—and his administration only—for having “turned the tide” against the COVID-19 pandemic. “From a year of darkness, we’re now emerging into the light,” Biden said during remarks at Cuyahoga Community College in Cleveland. “We’ve turned the tide on a once-in-a-century pandemic. We’ve turned the tide on a once-in-a-generation economic crisis, and families are beginning to be able to breathe just a little bit easier. We still have work to do, but our future today is as bright and wide open as it ever has been.” Biden never once mentioned Operation Warp Speed.

Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY), the embattled former Republican conference chair, during an interview Wednesday with the Wall Street Journal’s “Women, Power and Equity” event, said she sees her “re-election bid as a referendum on the future of the Republican Party.” The Wyoming Republican said voters are “potentially facing a choice between what she sees as traditional conservative values and loyalty to former President Donald Trump.” She said she already sees the upcoming 2022 midterm election as being a difficult one for her. Cheney was ousted by her party from leadership earlier this month for having repeatedly criticized former President Donald Trump for his past statements on the 2020 election.

President Joe Biden mistakenly blamed the “Tuskegee airmen” training program for fueling black American hesitancy about the coronavirus vaccine. “By the way, many of the older members of that community had memories of experimentation on black Americans that were not told about, like what happened, with the, you know, Tuskegee airmen and all those tests,” Biden said. “And so there was a great reluctance.” [Video] Biden spoke about vaccine hesitancy in the black community during an interview with YouTube star Jackie Aina. But the Tuskegee Flight Training Program was focused on testing and proving the ability of black Americans to fight in combat, not medical experimentation.

Here in California, even Disneyland has not been spared the wrath of the crazies.

But just five days later, Rufo disclosed that Disney “has removed its entire antiracism program from the company’s internal portal, effectively scrubbing it out of existence.” Rufo added,
Insurrection Obsession 1 reply

Okay, let’s say out loud what the regime doesn’t want said – there was no insurrection. At least not in Washington, D.C. Now, in places like Portland and Seattle, there were and are insurrections, actual ongoing occupations of actual territory by actual criminals where the government is expressly told it’s not in charge and to stay out. And, of course, the government tolerates those insurrections. It does so because the Democrats in charge – this nonsense never happens in Florida with DeSantis in charge – perceives the actual insurrectionists as political allies, so they do nothing. Some insurrections, it appears, are more insurrectiony than others.
Masks Didn't Slow COVID Spread: New Study 8 replies

New findings reported Tuesday in a University of Louisville study challenge what has been the prevailing belief that mask mandates are necessary to slow the spread of the Wuhan coronavirus. The study notes that "80% of US states mandated masks during the COVID-19 pandemic" and while "mandates induced greater mask compliance, [they] did not predict lower growth rates when community spread was low (minima) or high (maxima)." Among other things, the study—conducted using data from the CDC covering multiple seasons—reports that "mask mandates and use are not associated with lower SARS-CoV-2 spread among US states."

This was bound to happen. I’m sort of shocked it didn’t happen sooner, but here we are with the triggered left-wingers tossing around lawsuits like candy because they found something offensive. That thing was a phrase Donald Trump used to describe the coronavirus. It’s accurate. It’s not offensive, but that’s not the point. This is about the Left’s unhealthy and unhinged obsession with the former president. Even when he’s gone, he’s facing criminal investigations into his business dealings, but this one deals with two words: China virus. Yes, Trump is being sued because he said that (via the Hill):

President Joe Biden has nominated David Chipman, a longtime gun control advocate, to lead the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF), an agency that plays a key role in gun regulations. Chipman, who served as an ATF special agent for 25 years, left to work with former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-Ariz.) at her gun restriction organization Giffords. During his Senate confirmation hearing on Wednesday, Chipman confirmed his support for a ban on AR-15 rifles. He also suggested he still supports banning “assault weapons,” and he presented an absurdly broad definition of “assault weapon.” Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) pressed Chipman on his public support for an AR-15 ban.

A bill to form a commission tasked with investigating the January 6 Capitol riot will not move forward after the measure failed to reach the 60 votes required to advance.

Just six Republicans voted to advance the bill: Senators Lisa Murkowksi of Alaska, Susan Collins of Maine, Bill Cassidy of Lousiania, Ben Sasse of Nebraska, Mitt Romney of Utah and Rob Portman of Ohio.
