A nice turn of phrase here in Chronicles.
...To anyone paying attention as events unfolded on Election Night 2020 and then, more horrifyingly, on Jan. 6, 2021, the outcome of the 2024 Republican primary was never in doubt. It is, and was always going to be, Donald Trump. There was nothing more implausible than the notion that voters would abandon the horse that carried them into battle as they realized they were at war with the deep state. Voters are unlikely go wobbly on Trump no matter what unfolds. Why? Because it was never about Trump in the first place....
In a picture:
...No matter how often that establishment insists that their only object is the protection of “Our Democracy™,” it is now abundantly clear that their first object is the protection of their own hides. And from what, exactly, are they protecting them? The will of the people, of course.
They aren’t interested in the opinions of the hoi polloi about policy. The privilege of policymaking has been delegated to an expert class at the various alphabet agencies that willingly implements and advances an agenda best suited to our increasingly oligarchic and self-perpetuating institutions. They are particularly uninterested in our opinions about war and peace. That will be determined by the interests of a globalist regime working hard to support a military-industrial complex that consumes the wealth and treasure of the American people and feeds on the bodies of their sons and, barbarically, their daughters....
The FauciFraud remains, perhaps, the single most significant landmark in the history of the Break From Government. And it is not odd that Trump is Teflon in that little saga; Everyman understands exactly what Trump did, and why. Everyman also understands that Trump was a victim, not a perp.
You all know the rest of the story: the imprisonment and LONG-delayed trials of grannies who were invited into the Capitol on 1/6; the drum-pounding for another war in a place 8,000 miles away having zero strategic importance to the US; the FBI's no-warrant spying on parents, Catholics, and anyone who spent money on "MAGA" or an AR; the 3 million-strong army of invasion, and the bankrupting of the US Treasury. Should we mention the "green" agenda (eat bugs, don't drive, no heat for YOU) being crammed down our throats?
...Nevertheless, the Republican Party establishment saw fit to do what it always does best: engage in self-sabotage.
How better to respond to an incoming attack on our people than to stab in the back Trump, the man who is taking all the incoming fire at the front? How better to take on an entrenched deep state than to advance DeSantis, an unprepared but promising soldier, to the front lines and demand he slay the general because the general won’t listen to fools ensconced safely back at headquarters? How better for the Republicans to prepare for a campaign against Biden than to squander their resources on a fight for second place in a pissing contest? How better to remain an ineffective and eternal minority party than to display to your base the same contempt for their clear and obvious choice, Trump, as the Democrats display? Republicans checked all those boxes and more....
And a little advice for Jay Weber (face it: Sykes is beyond redemption):
... On the right, there is no time for recrimination, grudges, or even public mockery. I am willing to attribute to naivete whatever can’t obviously be attributed to ill will. But Republicans expended a lot of sweat, tears, good will, and money to no good purpose in this primary fight. It’s time everyone on the right learned how to avoid joining in on the war the establishment is waging on its own people. It’s fine to wish one’s people would form opinions more in sync with one’s own judgments. One can try to persuade them. But the heat of battle is no time for self-indulgence. If there’s one lesson that should be abundantly clear after the last eight years, it is that contempt for voters will get you nowhere.
The Trump saga will, and must, play out. Those who see themselves in his battle with the powerful, who see their troubles mirrored in his struggles, will not be denied. The right is composed of many factions, but indulging in these squabbles now will not help us if our common enemy, the deep state, is not leashed....
Amen, sister!! Preach it!!
......One of the most important NGOs underwriting the immigrant-invaders seems to be the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society (HIAS), of which the current director of the US Department of Homeland Security, Alejandro Mayorkas, himself a Jew, was a board member until December 2020. According to an article on substack, HIAS has received $100,000,000 from the US government in the past three years. If this is true, then the Biden regime is underwriting the immigrant invasion with US taxpayers’ money.................
