are seeing that it is time to fight back. Republicans have been FAR too supine for FAR too long. RINOs have told us over and over that it is not “polite” or “not us” or “Christian.”
And what Hegseth has taught us is that if you fight back, you can win. Hegseth is not confirmed yet, but now it’s looking likely that he will be. But even if he somehow doesn’t, the lesson has already been taught.
And Republicans would do well to take notice.
“And I think the reason why is because the moment that Trump came out and said that he is behind his pick, we did see a number of Trump allies kind of green lighting to the MAGA base, all right, start calling senators who are a little bit worried on Hegseth. Start — start to threaten, actually, a number of senators, including Sen. Joni Ernst, that she could get primaried. This is something that Elon Musk has also said publicly that he will use his super PACs to not just find candidates to go against any senator who may vote against a nominee, but also fund those campaigns.”
… These simple steps enable Republicans to neuter, blow up, and render impotent the awful playbook that the media, Democrats, and the permanent D.C. class use to get their way.
Do you flee or turn and fight? The wise choice is not always clear. But for now, it is quite clear that it is time to fight.
