Give It A Rest, Conservative Inc.

By Brian Cates

When news reached President Donald J. Trump that the Republican National Committee [RNC] was preparing to end this completely foregone primary season now that all the other candidates have dropped out besides the delusional Nikki Haley, and vote to simply DECLARE Trump the party’s presidential nominee, he immediately issued this response on his Truth Social account:

That is a very interesting response, is it not?

The RNC was preparing to vote to simply HAND Trump the nomination, but he came out quickly and said he doesn’t want them to do that.

Thus far only Iowa and New Hampshire have held their votes, and Trump says he wants the voters in the other 48 states and territories that have not held their primaries or caucuses yet to know that their vote still counts.

So in a boss move, he turned down this offer of the nomination on a silver platter. And this now creates problems for the people who were hoping he would eagerly grab that sliver platter with both hands.

Many of these people are still hoping to argue that Trump’s massive popularity is only an illusion, its not real and is a Trump campaign team creation. Had Trump opted to take the nomination now before more states have voted, these people would be able to continue using that talking point to claim making Trump the nominee is a big mistake, because his ‘widespread popular support’ is only a carefully crafted mirage.

What else might Trump be doing, what issues might he be forcing by refusing to have the presidential nomination simply handed to him?

Well, for one thing, we are realizing we do not currently have an accurate picture of the GOP electorate right now, 2 states into the primary season because the present Republican system for holding primaries and caucuses in many states are unsecure and compromised. Especially in the blue or purple states. Is Trump trying to call attention to this fact?

While Iowa wasn’t likely skewed all that much by Democrat operatives changing their party status with the help of dark money NGO’s like Primary Pivot to cross over and vote for Nikki Haley, about 70% of the 140,000+ votes Haley got in New Hampshire were from people who were not members of the Republican Party…and that’s a massive problem.

70% of 140,000 votes is 98,000.

What should have been a 20 point massive Trump blowout win was reduced to an 11 point win, 54.3% to 43.2%. It appears that allowing non-Republican voters to swarm into the GOP primary to vote cut Trump’s victory margin by as much as 8-9 points.

Wouldn’t the **best** way to get an accurate read on who the GOP party base in each state wants to nominate for a public office be to allow **only** party members to vote?

Sure, its a simple concept to state.

So why have so many state GOP leadership set up their primary/caucus rules to allow nonparty members to directly influence the outcome? Why do they allowed ‘undeclared’ people to vote?

And pollsters like Rich Baris [@peoples_pundit on X] of Big Data Poll are hearing that the Haley camp thinks Democrat ‘rent-a-mob-for-a-day’ voters can help her flip some close races in some of the blue states that will be holding their primaries on Super Tuesday. Which is a big reason she’s planning to stay in the race to at least March 5, after she suffers what is shaping up to be an epic ass-kicking in her own home state of South Carolina.

It is indeed an exceptionally BAD LOOK for the current RNC party leadership that the sole remaining candidate’s campaign team appears to be openly courting Democrat NGO’s like Primary Pivot to encourage hordes of Democrat crossover voters to come vote in the GOP race in their state to help them ‘stop Trump’.

Intentionally or not, Haley and her campaign team and the donors behind her have cast a massive spotlight on a major problem with how the current GOP primary/caucus system is set up. Why are large numbers of people who aren’t even Republican party registered being allowed to drop in for one single day and vote to influence GOP elections? How long has this been going on?

And it should be pointed out that this primary season voting isn’t about just determining who gets the party’s presidential nomination. There are plenty of down-ballot races that matter also, at the state and local county level. What sense does it make to leave the door wide open to allow Democrat NGO’s like Primary Pivot to directly influence voting that should be about the Republican base alone expressing its preferences for those local and state offices?

Of course, it’s far too late to change the existing rules now that the primary season is already getting underway.

The end result of this is going to be UniParty Dark Money NGO’s that helped set up the 2020 election rigging & theft continuing to pour millions of dollars into ginning up stealth Democrat ‘rent a mob for a day’ voters in the GOP primaries to try to blunt, obscure and hide the true size of Trump’s base. While also directly impacting many of the smaller state and local elections.

Some people are concerned about Trump having to continue rallies and do campaign spending on what are essentially primaries where the outcome is a foregone conclusion. No matter how much the UniParty NGO’s spend, Trump is very likely to win every single GOP primary.

Perhaps that’s the point? Perhaps Trump wants it demonstrated at the ballot box just how large his base of support actually is?

For months now there have been people like Clay Travis and Steve Deace and several other big influential talking heads in Conservative, Inc. who’ve been insisting to anyone who still listens to them that Trump actually DOES NOT HAVE the widespread popular support that he appears to have; they’ve argued this is an ILLUSION and that Trump blew the 2020 election and lost it by campaigning ‘wrong’.

“See, Trump lost that ‘college educated suburban woman’ vote in 2020, and that’s why Joe Biden beat him fair and square. So to win in 2024, what Trump needs to do….”

Hold it.

Let me stop you right there.

When Clay Travis and Steve Deace and several others simultaneously began advancing this argument about how Trump ‘lost’ the 2020 election, I made this response: Trump bettered his 2016 vote total by almost 8.25 million votes. He did not ‘lose’ the 2020 election, and its infuriating to see top influencers spouting this crap, especially in light of all the election fraud evidence that has surfaced over the past three years.

Every Conservative Inc. talking head who at this late date, is still saying to us, “See, Trump lost in 2020 because…” ends up being immediately suspect as to both their motives and their intentions. Because by refusing to acknowledge the biggest truth about the 2020 election, they are red-flagging their analysis.

They can’t reach people like me, who covered the massive and blatant theft of the 2020 election as it was occurring, and who reported on the aftermath of that election theft.

I got tossed off of Twitter for 2 1/2 years for covering that election theft. So did Tracy Beanz of Uncover DC and many others, who instead of protecting their access to social media by carefully watching what they said, they followed the truth and reported the facts about that stolen election and happily paid the price for it.

While the Steve Deace’s, Clay Travis’, Dana Loesch’s, and Ben Shapiro’s stayed perfectly safe and uncensored because they immediately rushed to adopt the UniParty/GOP establishment tune from the very beginning, and stuck with it:

Trump LOST. Get OVER it. Move ON.

So every time one of these Con Inc. people start saying stuff like “Well Trump ran a losing campaign back in 2020 and he lost fair and square to Biden so according to this 2020 election data right here, what he needs to do now is…” to ‘explain’ to us what he needs to do to win in 2024? Or to pontificate to us about how he’ll lose this upcoming election?

Right there is where they lose us. Because they can’t admit the obvious. And if they can’t admit the obvious, are they really a good source for news analysis? I would say no.

Why should anybody keep listening to the analysis of people who either can’t accurately see the last presidential election, or even worse, they see it but they refuse to acknowledge it, as they babble their cool hot take ‘prescriptions’ for what Trump needs to do to win this next one?

They have no credibility. If the most obvious fact about the 2020 election escaped you, or you are still refusing to talk about it at this late date? Your analysis is freaking worthless.
