Battered Conservative Syndrome is a real thing. Years of watching Republicans in practically every chamber across this great land have taken their toll on the minds of those who have counted on the Party of Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt, and Ronald Reagan to do something, anything to at least hold back the menacing leftist scourge and the accompanying demise of Western civilization a little while longer.
Some self-proclaimed conservatives, as if the term carries any weight whatsoever today, can’t believe what their lying eyes are telling them. If only, they say, we could return to the glory days of vaunted American icons like John Boehner, Paul Ryan, John McCain, and the Bush dynasty at the helm of the Republican Party, then perhaps we could vanquish these evil Democrats once and for all. They appear to believe things were sublime under the leadership of the right side of the dreaded uniparty, and because they’ve let their brains rot on account of consuming conservative purity think tank propaganda that somehow ignores the elephant in the room – that America First vote totals in the 2018, 2020, and 2022 federal elections are commensurate with large margins of victory, and that the defiance of nearly every previously known trend, indicator, bellwether, and predictor was required to blot out undeniable victory from seating rightful office holders.
Yesterday, a post on X, shown below, caught my attention, and for all the wrong reasons:
To recap, 5 out of 8 Americans, per Rasmussen Reports, believe the 2020 election outcome was decided by fraud. An even higher percentage, north of three-quarters, don’t find our system of electing officials to be trustworthy. More than 80% of Republican voters believe President Trump lost the 2020 quasi-election unfairly, and short of mental impairment or ill health, there is zero demand for an alternative, because the vast majority of Trump’s base wants to see justice in the realm of elections. None of the other Republican candidates will mention election manipulation because if they did, it would serve as a tacit endorsement of Trump, an acknowledgement that he was wrongfully deprived of reelection.
All other Republican campaigns are dead on arrival.
Readers would benefit from researching Stockholm syndrome – defined by Britannica as a “psychological response wherein a captive begins to identify closely with his or her captors, as well as with their agenda and demands.” The term originates from a failed 1973 bank robbery in which my noted description of the syndrome played out in real time. The same condition presents when Republicans believe that by simply not mentioning the election manipulation crisis, or by ignoring it altogether, that American patriots will be able to “Trojan Horse” candidates of choice into the halls of government. Wrong.
There is no going back to the way things were.
The movement is bigger than Donald Trump, and must be if our Republic is to survive. He won’t be here forever, just as none of us will be, though he will live on forever as one of the pivotal figures in the destiny of the American experiment. He has but one remaining term available to him, and it must be one for the ages to root out extensive networks of corruption that, thanks to the work of many patriots, have now removed their respective masks of deception. Trump himself was the man to call out the grift and corruption of the Republican establishment, to the shock of many – after all, we thought our elections were mostly fair, and discord in the party would only usher in the reign of Hillary R. Clinton. I fell into this group on June 16, 2015, when Trump came down the famous escalator inside Trump Tower.
The following points are highlights from his historic campaign announcement:
Our country is in serious trouble. We don’t have victories anymore. We used to have victories, but we don’t have them. When was the last time anybody saw us beating, let’s say, China in a trade deal? They kill us. I beat China all the time. All the time.
Trump is issuing a clear indictment of the Republican Party, not the Democrats. Even though the Democrats had long been associated with radical environmentalism that crippled industry in the Midwest and other regions, Republicans couldn’t get it figured out with the issue of trade, completely squandering the Reagan coalition that delivered unassailable landslides in the 1980s. The non-college vote, not the illegal alien vote, destroyed the GOP in the so-called “Rust Belt,” and was sent fleeing by the likes of George H.W. Bush, the godfather of NAFTA. I chuckle when thinking that because Donald Trump won Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin for the GOP for the first time in decades, other Republicans think they can complete there, too. In truth, all other Republicans, even absent a grudge from the Trump base, would be fortunate to carry Ohio and Iowa.
When do we beat Mexico at the border? They’re laughing at us, at our stupidity. And now they are beating us economically. They are not our friend, believe me. But they’re killing us economically.
The U.S. has become a dumping grounds for everybody else’s problems.
Same chapter, different verse, this time calling attention to the failures of the GOP to secure the southern border, the most basic function of preserving a sovereign nation – a boundary. Republicans held the U.S. House and U.S. Senate for six years of George W. Bush’s time in the White House, and did nothing, all so they could protect sources of cheap labor for the donor class, even though it enables Democrat goals of impoverishing the minority working class and importing an all-new electorate. This trend among Vichy Republicans continues in border states, with Texans and Arizonans suffering under the heavy hand of cartel invasion.
Remember how horrified the left was about this? To this day, they still mischaracterize Trump’s remarks as something he DID, not what he said he could probably do. But, what do we have instead? A *President, installed through fraud, that raped a woman, loved to march around naked in front female USSS agents that HAD to be there, and forced his young daughter to shower with him and who he sexually abused (by HER admission). Oh, and gigantic disasters all over the place.
BRING BACK TRUMP! Let him pick and train his successor. Let’s create a dynasty of leadership that cares about THIS country and its citizens instead of their personal wealth. His worst sin (in the eyes of the political ruling elite) is that he exposed to the people what that looked like.
“who he sexually abused (by HER admission)”
That is not the case.
From her diary:“Was I molested. I think so – I can’t remember specifics but I do remember trauma.” An online report from National Life alleges writings by Ashley Biden suggest the current sitting U.S. President may have taken inappropriate showers with his daughter at a young age..
So what is the case G?
Drugs sexual addiction
the FBI just just randomly goes after diaries left behind in rehab centers?
You know, if you didn’t restrict yourself to leftist propaganda media that you KNOW is lying to you, you wouldn’t pop on here and make yourself look ignorant, foolish and stupid. Just a thought.
After a secret vote against a nationally admired Representative,they want members of the GOP to sign an agreement to vote in unison for the next Rino they shove to the front. Mc Carthy got fired for not keeping his word, his voting record an F for the liberty score. I hope this is on every primary commercial. They are our employees.
Did you all catch the admins worry we dont become Islamophobics?
Thats code for Isreal needs to to dump its trash, UK and USA are the landfill.
Well, we’ve tried accommodating Islam’s every wish and whim. That hasn’t worked out too well, so maybe we should try Islamophobia and see how that turns out?
