At CPAC yesterday, Donald Trump reaffirmed what many of us already knew. This is his Republican Party. That’s not to say he has any sway with lawmakers currently on Capitol Hill or the RNC itself. But he still holds the hearts and minds of a majority of Republican voters. Conservatives and populists generally love him. The moderates and neocons who support the Republican Establishment do not.
With CPAC over and calls for unity within the GOP already fading, there are two major takeaways from the event. The first is disappointing as far too many so-called conservatives are trying to blend in with the Establishment while also trying to maintain their conservative credibility. This has and always will be a failing endeavor as “Big Tent” Republicans among The Swamp believe compromise is a one-way street. They want the Big Tent as long as it’s THEIR tent. Whether based on ignorance or pettiness, they falsely claim that a Big Tent led by conservative and populist principles cannot work.
The second takeaway is that as long as Donald Trump chooses to stay in politics, he wields tremendous power over the true GOP base. That base does not include Establishment leadership or Swamp-loving megadonors. It’s just us, the people, the heart and soul of the conservative movement. We believe in an America First vision that embraces personal liberties and limited government. And while President Trump wasn’t always able to reduce the size of government, he strongly defended our freedoms and managed the nation with the most America-First mentality we’ve seen from a president in at least a century.
We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
