In the background of the Republican dynamic, CTH has been reminding everyone about the nature of the Republican National Committee (RNC) and Democrat National Committee (DNC) being private clubs, private corporations, unaffiliated with government. Most casual voters do not understand what this key and important distinction means within U.S. elections.
There are two private corporations representing Republicans and Democrats; they are most commonly referred to as political parties. There is no basis for the existence of private political parties in the United States constitution. Both parties function from a position as private interests outside the framework of government.
What we commonly refer to as ‘politicians’ are selected representatives to the government from each of the corporations. What we commonly refer to as ‘primary elections’ are suggestions to each of the corporations from citizens expressing their preference for the representative. The corporation can individually choose to accept or decline the suggestion from the voters, and the only thing that binds the corporation to follow the suggestion are the corporate rules.
The corporation of the RNC and DNC exist to serve their own interests. Politics is the RNC and DNC business; however, the income stream -the financial aspects to the business- is what holds influence over the corporate priority. Ideology is part of the equation, but control of the business and generating revenue is the main function of the corporation. Unfortunately, in the reality of the business model, election outcomes are downstream from those two priorities.
It is with this corporate baseline in mind that all ‘primary election’ political analysis should take place. The economics of the thing is what Republican officers in the RNC emphasize. Without money, the corporate mission doesn’t operate. Without money the RNC members -essentially board members- do not function, hold meetings, assemble, or participate in the organization. Therefore, from the standpoint of the corporation, the business of politics (inputs) drives the activity, not election results (outputs).
This facet to U.S. politics is rarely discussed because the corporations and the people who run them do not want this process emphasized. However, if voters do not comprehend this dynamic, they can fall victim to the fallacy of false representative choice.
The corporation is made up of members. The members make the rules. The members have preferences and ideological outlooks about the objective of the corporation as part of their position within it. Inside this dynamic is where you see the changing of rules to benefit the preferences of the members; ultimately influencing outcomes.
Unlike most political sites, CTH watches this inside club dynamic closely, because ultimately it explains a lot of ‘consequences’ that we see later discussed. It is easier to just sit back and discuss the consequences than it is to watch the officials inside the club make rule changes proactively. However, it is by watching the rule changes that we can see the roadmaps of influence within game as played by both RNC and DNC corporations.
Any political commentary that does not take this private club dynamic into consideration, and/or explain the consequences from decisions within the club, is not serving the interests of the American electorate.
The winter meeting of the RNC is taking place January 25-27th, in Dana Point California at the Waldorf Astoria – Monarch Beach Resort. There are 168 members who will be in attendance (3 from every state) along with various RNC and national republican leadership.
This RNC corporate meeting, and the votes by the members, will determine the Republican Club rules for the 2024 election cycle. Rules on primary dates, sequence, apportionment of delegates, distribution of delegates, state sequencing, qualifications and much more will be decided.
Rules that govern the candidates and campaigns of those who choose to run on the corporate identity of “Republican” will also be determined. Rules on financial agreements, expectations for data sharing, fundraising, contribution expectations (both directions) and much more will be determined.
It is inside this dynamic where one of the key club control battles is likely to take place. It’s mostly boring and seemingly parliamentary stuff {Example Here}, but it has massive ramifications.
Some RNC members support MAGA, some do not. Some RNC members support the Wall Street alignment, some do not. Some members support the populist movement, others do not. Some RNC members support a big tent approach to a working-class coalition, other RNC members regard the working-class as beneath their representative interests. The key point is that it’s a private club making these decisions.
The majority decision from within the club membership vote will determine each outcome(s). Donald Trump may have earned 100 million voters and supporters, but only 168 unelected members and party officials will determine what that means to their corporate agenda.
There is no guarantee the America-First agenda of Donald Trump is in alignment with the 2023 priorities of the club. Factually, all recent suggestions from the club control officers, the billionaire Wall Street donors like Ken Griffin, all suggest the removal of Trump and the MAGA agenda from association with the RNC Club should be the priority of the assembly. The dynamic of financial influence, income to the corporation, changes the entire mechanism of the outcome.
As noted by ‘Niagara Frontier‘: “I’m watching for last-minute RNC rule changes for the national primaries and the selection of convention delegates. If we start hearing anybody, anywhere float a proposal in favor of Republican super delegates for the national convention, it’s total war.”
Niagara is absolutely correct. The internal battle deep inside the club, fraught with influence, power dynamics and cliques positioning for control, is the part of the political dynamic that everyone should be watching closely.
We will be….
Keep an eye on Georgia if they move to make that winner take all then it shows they’re trying to rig it for Ron
GA was confiscated from the people in 2020. Its gone.
The most DeSantis friendly primary states will be Georgia, Utah, Colorado, and Idaho. Any RNC club rules that will be manipulated to stop Trump will be discovered in those 4 states
I think Democrats have a better ground game they pay for votes with Zuckerberg’s Soros and SBF bucks. 18 to 30 year olds are indoctrinated even to vote against their best interest ..Dennis Prager wrote a piece today about this . Its outstanding…
I think thats giving the Zucker punk too much credit. A snotty wus like that and his fortune is no match for MAGA. A fake pandemic however, well, that is the foundation which opened all the doors to fraud. Zuck is just a fraud taking advantage of an open door. He deserves to share a prison cell with a very large bisexual man until his punishment for treason is rendered.
I agree but he spent 412 million in 2020 cycle.I dissipe FB censorship is off the charts..Twitter is now awesome with Musk but Sundance is in another class spot on 100% of the time.Read the Dennis Prager piece its enlightening about 18 to 30 year olds..
They have a ground game many times better than the GOP’s. Baby boomers are no longer the biggest demographic. That changed in 2019 when millennials took over. And millennials and GenZ together dwarf baby boomers. The dems know that. they target these people and get them to vote. GOP doesn’t. No way we’ll ever win without changing that.
The D. Prager articles link that was mentioned. If anyone else would like to read it.
https://dennisprager.com/column/young-americans-voted-to-ruin-their-lives/
mallardcove,
Not sure what your refering to, can you expand on that?
THEY rigged it for Ron in his last election in Florida.
They turned the machines OFF. Ron suddenly won in a massive amount in Miami-Dade? This is THEE rigged left-wing county. The powers that be altered that county to make Ron look sanctimonious!
And Ron never got rid of the MACHINES.
Not so sure Christ was an awful candidate he had to get paid to run took one for the team..
But look at Arizona. Katie Hobbs is a horrible candidate. I believe Kari Lake would have won like DeSantis if there wasn’t massive blatant fraud. All 4 of those MAGA candidates “lost”. Same with Nevada
Do you mean Crist?
They are terrified of President Trump and his 75 million supporters. It will get ugly, no doubt about that.
who told us to accept the 75 million number, Was it the media?
95 Mil.. easy..
I was being conservative in my estimation. I am sure President Trump has many more supporters than that.
Then say it loud and say it proud. Plus it gets the narrative engineers in the bot media triggered.
100+ Million.
Good question… I think it’s much higher
I believe it’s over a hundred million by now
No they aren’t, they are still working to put him away in any way they can. They do not fear him they disdain him and will take him out of he gets in the dems ways.
The Club moves used to work until the Rise of the Tea Party made us aware of the schemes. The momentum building leading to the subsequent election of the MAGA King in 2016. This trend would have continued but alas, the will of Sauron would not be undone.
Fake pandemic was manufactured to manipulate election results and here we are with no end in sight. Now they can continue to play their club games in confidence knowing they, not the people, decide who will win and who will lose on election month.
At least Thing was believable and had a wonderful know-it-all snark.
Kinda strange how a brain damaged candidate who couldn’t string together a coherent sentence beat out a brain surgeon.
Goes to show you the Left’s motto…..by any means necessary……even if it means getting a permanently brain damaged grifter in the seat.
Everything is in reverse with the Dems. Meritocracy is not their thing. 😒
Because they are liars and losers.
And thieves. Don’t forget thieves!
Exactly
There is no BEAT… its all cheat!!
We must get this straight —
No one gets into office by “beating” anyone at this point except by RARE showcase exception.
Facts matter.
omg… the creature trods the earth.
I am thinking about running for Senate.
That’s the twin brother, the one without the neck bulge.
Introducing Senator Elect, Hi Goodnight Everybody….
Since money is always the issue, It would appear the billions sent Ukraine(unaccounted for) and the FTX scam was in-fact a massive ‘Money Laundering’ Scheme designed to funnel money back to the Uniparty to fund their operations….
How do they launder money? They Ukraine it!
Funny how the numbers can be accounted for if we just change our own paradigm.
Of course it was! Plain as day!
The are those, like Mark Levin, who say that Biden and the Democrats are Marxists.
It keeps getting clearer and clearer that they are corporatists, aka fascists.
“Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power.”
– Benito Mussolini
1945: America helped defeat fascist countries.
2022: America is a fascist country.
The difference is that now nationalism has been removed as an element of fascism. Instead of national corporatons aligned with national governments, it is now multinational corporations buying and controlling national governments in their push for a single world government. It is the New Gloabist Fascism. And all nationalist movements such as MAGA are their enemies.
Hitler himself was actually a globalist.
He wanted to take over the world.
And it looks as though he may still be doing it.
Its a waste of time and energy best spent elsewhere (IMHO) to debate over terminology.
Benito was a student of Lenin, who first framed the (fake) ideological shift to “fascism”.
I say FAKE, because there is NO “Ideology” for any form of Conmunism; all the ideological claptrap is just to distract.
People think “Conmunist” they think of Lennin and Trotsky, or bolsehevics throwing molotiv cocktails.
They don’t think of McConnell and McCarthy,…Pelosi, Schumer, etc.
But they SHOULD.
“Tyranists, or “neo-feudalists” is more accurate.
“Elitists”, they are all those who attempt to perpetuate a “Con” on the masses, in order to elevate themselves with power, in order to use that power for their benefit.
Hence, the Corporatists, those heading up multinstional corporations, …are they Capitalists,..or Conmunists,..both and neither they are Tyranists, Neo-Fuedalists using manipulation, propoganda and fake ideological claptrap like GND, to keep the masses distracted, disheartened and divided, so we won’t unite and hang the barstuds as they so richly deserve.
Dutch, having lived it, I’ve always held the view that the end result of communism is feudalism.
Don’t forget many democrats actually don’t mind, even like, being called marxists even if very few would publicly admit it.
They all absolutely hate being called fascists.
So if anyone isn’t sure which they are, call them fascists.
I just know one thing. Communists are expert at infiltrating institutions and governments. Nazis never that good at it. And a lot of these so called Dems have a high opinion of communist China. They are communists.
But we can all agree on this. Those people, every last one of them, are our enemies
Same with Bella Dodd and Yuri Bezmenov.
A boot on the neck is a boot on the neck , whatever it’s called. 😒
Then call it fascism as democrats hate being called that.
A lot of them like being called marxists, although very few would admit it publicly.
” Mark Levin, who say that Biden and the Democrats are Marxists.”
Yes, but that’s too simplistic. They love it when we don’t get it.
Old fashioned Communists/Marxist- Leninists they are not. They are essentially Statists.
They are an oligarchy of co-incidental, overlapping interests.
The cultural wing of which believes you are deeply immoral and need their direction to live “moral” lives. The corporate wing is much more easily understood.
They are more accurately described as ‘post modernists’.
Culturally ‘of the left’, for sure.
But no more interested in government (“the people’s) ownership of the means of production and exchange than they are in warm Krug.
The power of these two private clubs is why we never will see any 3rd party rise in status in national elections.
Well Yeah, but only if the clubs wield the power to change legitimate election results through fraud without consequence.
They do.
The people did see the rise of a third party. Hence the apoplexy and subsequent rise of one manufactured crisis after another to shut us down.
This needs to go national.
An alternative Party to the GOP is instant Democrat rule forever! Splitting the GOP is death. Have to purge the GOPe sewer rats! It starts locally, then state wide, then nationally. Trump shows the way with MAGA rallies.
If they start rigging the delegates and certain states for the GOPe candidate, don’t be too sure of that. Trump is just the person to declare an Independent America First Party candidacy if they start playing games. He will ensure the MAGA movement doesn’t get throttled like they did with the Tea Party. Time for the GOPe to put up or shut up.
As I have said here before…I was in politics and in touch with the guys who put together Perot’s Reform Party.
Millions of dollars (billions in today’s dollars), months and months of time, lots of aggravation and obstruction.
I.e…. Nobody can just “declare” a new party. Even if we had the money, there’s not enough time to do it before 2024.
Those Perot guys said it was hell to even get Perot qualified to get on the ballot in every state. It would be worse now than it was back then.
The DNC already made their move, after Carter when they det it up so that the CONVENTION vote on POTUS nominee, was also just an “opinion poll” and not binding on the DNC, by greatly increasing the# of “Superdelegates” who, voting as a block, could effectively override the choice of the Delegates.
And, “nobody” really noticed or objected much, because nobody wanted another Carter.
However, MANY of the base were royally p.o.’d, when the DNC blatantly “robbed” Hillary of the nomination, giving it instead to Obama.
The RNC has experienced insurgency campaigns from its populist base, many times before;
Goldwater, Bucchannan, Ron Paul, and DJT among the most prominent.
They have never resorted to BLATANTLY and OPENLY rejecting the desires of the base, prefering to use less obvious means of deflecting such attacks from the base.
Exactly right that most Americans, and even ‘political commentators’ don’t explore this dynamic with any honesty.
It occurs to me, since there are still so many who struggle with truly grasping the UNIPARTY concept of one party with two wings, …
Think of it as a Political CARTEL, two parties that work together to elininate any other parties forming that would ‘offer’ competition.
And, as they are POLITICAL Corporations, instead of “price fixing” they agree on WHAT policies are up for debate (and which AREN’T).
Any time the GOPe is forced to reveal its true nature, is a victory for MAGA.
IF they blatantly manipulate the rules, to bar PDJT from having a ‘fair shot’ at the nomination, it WILL be noticed.
And will, it seems to me eliminate any reason for PDJT to continue to try to work THRU the Republican party, any more.
Gonna be interesting, to see what happens!
Yeah.
Remember the 2008 Democrat Presidential primary election? Obama wasn’t even on the Michigan primary ballot. But the DNC took a little more than half of the delegates Hillary won in Michigan and awarded them to Obama because …… that’s how many they said Obama WOULD have won if he HAD been on the ballot. The Hillary crowd went berserk. The DNC told them to go pound sand. Obama had a lock on it. Obama kept those Michigan delegates. The rest is history.
He also had busloads of people on busses in caucus states, going around to vote for Obama.
He also had thousands of under-$200 donations on foreign VISA debit cards sending donations to his campaign.
All 3 of the hacks representing Iowa On the RNC immediately endorsed McDaniel . If Steve days wants to help, then he should pressure those members to change their vote
Deace
No rinos are being targeted for removal through election fraud. Only America Frist candidates. If your favorite Republican is still in power, there is a good chance its because the club has approved it.
An opposing force to the leftist agenda does not control the House.
Right now the cabal are throwing shiny things in our faces to give us the illusion of representation. Shiny things like investigations into Hunter Bidens laptop. An investigation documenting over 450 crimes that has already been completed in detail by the people. Super Shiny things like Elon Musk, abortion bans and things like the occasional image of dead bodies in Ukraine.
I don’t have any favorite Republicans (other than President Trump), I have Republicans I despise slightly less than the Democrats (Yes, I’m looking at you McConnell bagman Senator Young-IN).
Amen, CJ.
How did Trump get elected in 2016?
Hillary had a lock on it, all the polls were telling them what they wanted to hear, and their fraud program was set to tilt a small Trump win into a small Hillary win. The MASSIVE vote for Trump caught them by surprise and overwhelmed the fraud system and it couldn’t keep up with it.
Learning from THAT mistake, they build in safeguards against a Trump landslide in 2020. People keep saying Trump’s 75 million votes. I am convinced it was closer to somewhere between 90-100 million Trump votes in 2020, and will be over 110 million in 2024.
At some point we reach critical mass and the fraud just can’t overwhelm our votes or hide them. MAKE THAT HAPPEN IN 2024.
Trump 2024
AND they did not have a week days of still counting votes. So, they could not cheat on the same night. Now, since they have the excuse of “mal in ballots” and approval of days counting after election day…they add at will whatever number they need to win.
Retired Magistrate here: It was a miracle; he got just the right amount of votes in the right places to win.
I still firmly believe in miracles.
I must respectfully disagree.
There was no miracle about it. In 2016 Trump had Paul Manafort, precinct counter extraordinaire and master of generating the needed votes in the specific city blocks you needed them in in order to get the number of delegates to the electoral college where you needed them. Unfortunately, old Paul had some other issues unrelated to his electoral genius and was, ahem, not available for 2020.
Also, Trump had Kushner as his campaign manager in 2020. That was a debacle for Trump. Kushner is an ass and should never have been even remotely close to the Trump administration. He was the spy in the ointment for Trump.
That was a wake up call to the DNC, time to start massive cheating! In my 50 mile jaunt to work every day, I could count the Hillary signs on one hand. Otherwise, it was a massive blue Trump signs everywhere.
/That was a wake up call to the Uniparty… there, fixed it for you Pa
By surprise
1). They didn’t think he would really win.
2). The Russia BS was their backup plan if he did win.
The Uniparty is 0/2
The installing of Biden, the 2022 fraud now makes them 0/4
They really are quite stupid.
Trump has always been a force of nature. Political establishment underestimated him and he effectively beat the cheat in the rust belt. Some friends in CA told me, if you factor out the illegal alien vote, CA was effectively a tie in 2016. Maybe they were right.
They were prepared and used a “pandemic” in 2020.
The GOP was unprepared and kept expecting him to fizzle out. Just before the convention, the club tried floating a Pence\ Ryan ticket.(😂😂😂!)..which fizzled instead. Then at the convention Ted tried ruining PT….which bombed. But seeing the naked power moves the Dems have made since, they will have NO problem placing whoever they want on the ticket regardless of primary results, and saying “Well? Are you going to vote for Michelle and Pete or our ticket ? ” 😒
You mean Michael and Pete, right?
They didn’t have the cheating systems set up in the traditionally Blue states and counties he won unexpectedly. (Wisconsin/Michigan etc). There was no way to generate ballots in those areas because they thought those would stay Blue.
It was fixed for 2020 and now there is no way for us to win again until those systems are removed.
…and the DOJ is the political “referee”?
ROFLOL!!! Yeah, right. NOT.
Would like to see a good D’souza documentary exposing this very thing. People need to know that they’re really not represented by their government.
We need a Republican corporation that is MAGA.
Or we need a new MAGA corporation (a new political party).
One or the other.
I will never again vote for an establishment republican. I’m done with being abused by them.
It is either MAGA or nothing because MAGA is the only policy aligned with my freedom and future.
You guarantee a Democrat victory by not voting or starting another Party! The DNC got this way over many decades. They played like a Major League TEAM. The GOP plays like a Little League Team. Start locally to elect MAGA candidates.
No amout of RNC high-dollar “management” will offset the hard fact that the most significant Republican constituency is the MAGA movement. We don’t intend to go away, although we may very well refuse to vote for GOPe/RNC fronted candidates. Similarly, Trump is the most significant Republican presidential candidate—especially among the MAGA movement, but also in terms of national political status—in recent history. There is no other national politician who can do what he does. More and more the GOPe/donor class reminds me of Whigs.
I’m still trying to figure out how they are going to bar Trump from being the Republican Nominee.
It’s Paul Ryan that said Trump will not be the Republican nominee. Maybe they make a rule no one under indictment can be the nominee?
In order to ban him from the Presidential race itself, Trump would have to be convicted of insurrection. It’s the only criminal offense I know of that has not being able to hold office ever as part of its punishment.
The old supposedly unanswerable question “what happens when an unstoppable object collides with an immovable object?” Well, it ricochets.
So we will see what happens. As of now, I see mutually assured destruction.
Good old fashioned voter fraud. Look to some of the sketchy activity used against Sanders.
There is one other option that is unthinkable. Pray they don’t get that desperate.
They cannot make any such rule without violating the US Constitution, which has no such requirement.
Furthermore, any such rule will just invite Trump to run as an Independent America First Party candidate, thereby destroying any chance for the Republican Party to win in 2024. Let’s see if the GOPe is that stupid. They probably are, since they haven’t earned the title of the stupid party for nothing.
The GOPe is that stupid… because “trillions are at stake”
You think they have any problem violating the U.S. Constitution? ROFLOL!!!
pierce the veil
Thanks Sundance appreciate the heads up in advance be well God bless
R.D.
Trump is not a nuclear power, and can be picked off if deemed problematic… they’ll want to nip that nomination in the bud thru various state Dem proxies and prosecutors, like the Jews used Rome to crucify Christ.
If you are forced to accept this club’s choice for 2024, then accept that eventuality right now. If we are not given true freedom of choice then be at relative peace with a DeSantis or Pence nomination. They still beat a Newsom presidency.
Trump will be tarred and feathered with more nonsensical prosecutions than anyone has ever endured, and this will be a bipartisan effort. They will then shrug and tell us “Oh well, guess he can’t win with so many distractions. Who’s the runner up?”
My only hope is in God shining a light in this darkness and getting us out of the graft game. Trump will possibly make his case as an outsider and reveal what we already know… the US government is Babylonian, evil and beyond general electoral repair.
It will be exposed… what replaces it will be worth the momentary losses and run by the One who knows us by heart. But, do vote, pray and speak up. Have a record of prayerful effort and grateful participation even if now we’re kicked to the curb.
“As noted by ‘Niagara Frontier‘: “I’m watching for last-minute RNC rule changes for the national primaries and the selection of convention delegates. If we start hearing anybody, anywhere float a proposal in favor of Republican super delegates for the national convention, it’s total war.””
In other words, super delegates should be called anti-democratic delegates with the more super delegates there are, the more anti-democratic they are.
Some readers here may recall the Jared Beck lawsuit against the DNC, when it was alleged that Bernie had actually won the DNC candidacy against Hillary Clinton. The upshot of that entire trial was that it was finally exposed that, as Sundance says in this article, the DNC (and RNC) are private corporations who, REGARDLESS of who wins primaries, can put forward any candidate that THEY want.
Exactly
Guess what.. the state’s electors can put forward any candidate THEY want, as well. Voting is simply a formality, a show if you will, as the electoral college isn’t legally bound to agree with the popular vote.
Once their votes are certified in January, that seals the deal.
At some point there may need to be a financial attack on a couple of key RINO backers to take them off the field of relevance.
Just turns one’s stomach. Interest in a proper stewardship doesn’t seem to have a vote.
Its the ballots not the votes that they count.
Proper stewardship? ROFLOL!!! Surely you jest!!
I am not a political naif.
We all know the process of selection is rife with fixers, influence peddling, deal making, and probably a little dash of blackmail thrown in, though that last one more than likely is referred by another name.
All we need to do is remember previous pairings on Presidential tickets from each party to understand that this whole process is akin to illegal bare knuckle fighting behind a deserted barn. They hope, no doubt, decisions on selection rules remain as unexamined and out of sight as those fisticuffs.
But now that we are much more interested and informed, I suspect we will be more attentive to monitoring how the sausage is made. If it comes to metaphorical bare knuckle fighting, then so be it.
The time for averting our gazes from the unpleasantries is over. Godspeed to those ready to fight within the enemy camp. They are those who deserve the title of Patriots.
I wonder what Rat-onna is having for Thanksgiving? I would feel better about giving my card numbers to a Nigerian “Prince” than give another dollar to anybody who would use it against me.
whenever I see her face I immediately think of a Pig.
Is this normal?
Don’t insult pigs!
We understand the problem. You have ably taught us to watch. However, what is the solution? Without solutions discussing problems becomes whining and complaining. How do we stop the Democrat rot that has spread to the Republicans? How do we destroy the Democrat party which is un-American and a mafia crime organization?
The Democrat rot did not spread to the Republicans. The Republicans have been willing participants for years. They just try harder to look angelic. Both parties need to be destroyed because both are evil and corrupt to the core.
who are the members?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republican_National_Committee#Current_Republican_National_Committee_members
You can scan the chart — looks like 3 voting members per state.
In 2020, a cabal in the DNC selected Biden. Won’t be surprised if the RNC dispenses with the primary and appoints a nominee for 2024. As Sundance said, winning the WH is not important to the establishment.
Also in 2016. Bernie won BOTH times.
Democrats are so crooked, THEY CHEAT THEMSELVES!
God Bless our President Donald Trump
We need to shit down the border for 20 years and

MAGAnificent, of course!
If the RNC is a corporation, is it also subject to the laws governing corporations? Can they be sued for fraud & misrepresentation?
Were billionaires ever on your side?
Names of the 168 unelected members and names of the billionaires donating. Threatening billionaires with becoming millionaires will change opinion. Remove the RNC and DNC does the same. Can’t sell stock, or product to bad.
We need the names and the products they sell for money.
“Can’t sell stock, or product to bad.”
Yes, sanctions are a good theory …but unlike the elites we fade in determination over time.
Gillette should have never sold another razor after asserting that all their male customers were closet or potential wife /child beaters and should stop their behaviour immediately.
A boycott happens for a while then our corporate memory fades……
Party associations are not based upon any established law nor do they seek the public good, they are formed in defiance of the laws and from self-interest…’ Thucydides Book II
Didn’t the founders warn us about Political Parties? I thought I read that.
Yup.
Right up there with standing armies.
What is so troubling is they don’t ask him difficult questions.
The Railroads have a long history of making Governments do what they want. What gives them this power – A Union.
Then what can an 80 million member Union accomplish? They could tell all the billionaires to kiss it for starters.
As September 16th Deadline Looms, Major Freight Railroads Prepare for Possible Strike Costing US Economy More than $2 Billion a Day
Counter intuitively, Billionaires and big Unions have certain common interests, ie. a powerful Admin State that protects their interests. Competition doesn’t fix it, a surviving competitor eventually sees the advantages of the exclusive club.
yet a recent report said a 30-day strike would cost the US $160B and up to 1% of its GDP (FAR more than $160B by the way)
YUP! Super Delegates. I have talked about them often here. That is who picks our nominees, and their vote is twice what you have x infinity and beyond. It’s called Right To Rig.
They just go through these rituals with us because of the amazing grift, fame and the plane rides. They make YUGE $$$ and so do their donors in the media and all their beach friends and other cronies aka consultants have to do is make political promises worth absolutely nothing. Kinda like the dollar, which they destroy each and every day they exist.
And the final step I have always said was to get rid of the or destroy the Electoral College and they certainly took a hammer and sickle to that. With machines and KKKrooked people involved breaking law after law with ZERO ACCOUNTABILITY, who needs an Electoral College?!
“Politics is the RNC and DNC business; however, the income stream -the financial aspects to the business- is what holds influence over the corporate priority. Ideology is part of the equation, but control of the business and generating revenue is the main function of the corporation. Unfortunately, in the reality of the business model, election outcomes are downstream from those two priorities.” – Sundance
I like so many here haven’t given a penny to the RNC in decades. If a majority of the RNC annual revenue is generated from billionaires, millionaires, lobbyists and PACs and our individual contributions aren’t necessary to keep the RNC afloat why should we have any expectation that the RNC will change anything especially leadership let alone support MAGA candidates?! Unfortunately I believe Ronna will survive any challenge because her performance is based on fund raising and the denial of funds to non RNC approved candidates not on electing Republicans!
Rule #1: any GOP candidate who declares his candidacy prior to Jan 1 2023 will be disqualified.
Anyone remember the RNC whining about Trump not sharing his campaign cash with the candidates? They wanted him to deplete his stash so the RNC could deny him funds down the road.

GO MAGA2024.
The art for The Don is in keeping the massage cut through and simple-ish.
When all the time it is about deep understanding.

Choose wisely Republicans!
Your existence depends on your actions and you have 100 million pissed off people watching your every move!
What the RNC old crows will never understand is they cannot UNDO Donald J Trump! They can’t take him away from MAGA, all they can do is retaliate against MAGA which is beyond the base of the GOP. Their intent to destroy President Trump is their own destruction. They are so prideful with their heads up their butts that they can’t see it or refuse to see it.
They only listen, see, hear those in their own tiny little circle. This is way beyond their hate of the Tea Party and the new Tea Party is MAGA with a much wider tent that will dissipate without President Trump.
They can play all of their power games and it will do nothing but destroy themselves in the end. The movement for a 3rd party will grow without the GOP infrastructure.
The place their meeting is being held, says it all.
They should be at a Motel 6 in Philadelphia!
Right, a 3rd party must be tried, if a takeover of the GOP fails.
Gaining some of the non-voters would help. Defining what the MAGA message is and is not would help.
Start with a caucus inside the party, in both Houses. That could become the nucleus for something new.

Oooh, that meeting is down the street from me (CH owned resort for those that don’t know).
I think I need to go and take notes! 🙂
Oh, yes–PLEASE . . . !
