Prior to heading into court earlier today, President Donald Trump was asked about whether he would accept a nomination to be Speaker of the House if the Republican caucus requested it.  President Trump’s response is below.  WATCH (prompted):

President Trump said he would do whatever is needed to be of interim benefit to the Republican Party and to the House leadership, as the quest for the White House continues. This guy is literally carrying the hopes of the nation, those who comprehend the status of our tenuous constitutional republic, on his shoulders.  Incredible strength.

President Trump is fighting to defend his businesses, fighting to defend his family, fighting to defend himself from malicious prosecution and lawfare, fighting to defend our nation, and fighting to return to the office of the presidency….. and yet, with all of that placed on his shoulders, he’s willing to stand in as Speaker of the House if that is what is in our nation’s best interest.

Let all of that sink in while you pray for him.  Then think of the insignificance of the gnats who would challenge him for office.

Sidenote:  Nice to see Eric Trump standing resolute with President Trump.  Eric was selected by his father to be the leader of the Trump Organization, an excellent choice.

Comrades, do not be alarmed.  Dear Leader takes all action in your best interest.

All good citizens support the regime.

According to several media sources, and the principals themselves, the RNC has threatened both Chris Christie and Vivek Ramaswamy if they appear together on a Fox News broadcast.

The issue for the RNC is that both candidates would be running “afoul of their pledge to only participate in sanctioned debates.”

“Christie, the former New Jersey governor, and Ramaswamy, a biotech entrepreneur, were set to appear simultaneously on FNC’s “Special Report” evening news program. However, both candidates said RNC officials warned them doing so would run afoul of their pledge to only take part in sanctioned debates — and rule them out of the Nov. 8 showdown in Miami.” (MORE)

The private corporation known as the Republican National Committee, will not accept or allow unapproved candidate appearances.  OK, you accept that as the baseline for the next part?

Now consider:  “FOX News Channel’s Sean Hannity will moderate a red vs. blue state debate between Florida Gov. and Republican presidential candidate Ron DeSantis and Democrat California Gov. Gavin Newsom, FOX News Media announced Monday.”

RNC has no issue with DeSantis -v- Newsom.  RNC approves and sanctions DeSantis -v- Newsom.

Modern American politics is a corporate control operation.  The Republican wing of that private, corporately controlled operation is affirmed by constructing the illusion of choice.  The illusion of choice requires strict control mechanisms.  The RNC is the control mechanism.

Can you see it now?

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is the controlled operative, the installed end point of the funnel in this equation.

According to multiple DC media sources, a quiet effort is underway by members of the professionally republican mindset to kick Matt Gaetz out of the House Republican caucus.  However, the advocates worry they will be primaried by voters in their district, as the population of Republican voters supports Gaetz.  It is a duplicitous dynamic.

Meanwhile, Kevin McCarthy has told his Republican conference that despite prior statements, he will not attempt to become the House Speaker again and will instead retire to his home district in California.

No one is quite sure what comes next; what is clear is that Gaetz has channeled the frustration of the Republican/MAGA base into an actionable result.  This should not come as a surprise to the GOPe, although many of the cloistered clan continue pretending not to understand the dynamic at play.

Allow me to provide some simple clarity.

♦ In 2009 72% of the country, and an even larger percentage of the Republican voters, did not want Obamacare.  The govt takeover of healthcare was along purely ideological grounds.  For the 2010 midterm election, the professional Republican apparatus campaigned on this single issue – repeal Obamacare.  The voters destroyed the Democrats and flipped 67 seats to Republican control.  The professional Republicans wanted the House, frustrated American voters gave it to them.

The Republicans did nothing.

♦ In 2012, the professional Republicans campaigned on retaining the House and asked to begin a process of taking down the Democrat control of the Senate. Remember, it was a 60/40 Senate when the Obamacare boondoggle was begun.  Keep the House, help us take Senate seats, and we will repeal Obamacare and balance the budget.  That was the call of the 2012 professional Republicans.  The voters delivered.  The GOPe kept the house, took 6 seats in the Senate and introduced a wave of fresh Republican blood.

The Republicans did nothing.

♦ In the 2014 midterm election, the professional Republicans campaigned on retaining the House and now flipping the Senate with more GOP seats.  Keep the House, give us the Senate majority, and we will repeal Obamacare and deliver a balanced budget.  The voters again delivered.  Beginning in January 2015, the Republicans controlled the House and the Senate majorities for Obama’s last two years.

The Republicans did nothing.

Worse still, even with professional Republican control of both chambers of congress, President Obama never had to use his veto pen.

In a historic first the House of Representatives has voted to remove Kevin McCarthy from his position as Speaker of the House.

Kevin McCarthy is officially removed.

[SOURCE]

WASHINGTON DC – Democrats joined with Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) and his small group of conservative allies to vote to strip Kevin McCarthy of his gavel Tuesday. It’s unclear who would succeed McCarthy long term, though his allies expect he will try to run for speaker again.

Eight Republicans voted against McCarthy: Reps. Eli Crane (Ariz.), Ken Buck (Colo.), Andy Biggs (Ariz.), Matt Rosendale (Mont.), Matt Gaetz (Fla.), Bob Good (Va.), Nancy Mace (S.C.) and Tim Burchett (Tenn.).

Three House leaders have been floated as potential long-term replacements: Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.), Whip Tom Emmer (R-Minn.) and Conference Chair Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.). All three have disavowed any interest in replacing McCarthy — a reality that could change now that the Californian is officially out. (read more)

The truth has no agenda, and it certainly doesn’t care about your feelings. Remember that, because it is the core of this assembly.

RFK Jr. recently spoke of internal polling showing that his third-party independent run would pull more votes from Trump than Joe Biden.  Many people refused to believe the statement and demanded to see the polling.  Well, here it is:

[SOURCE]

You will notice the Joe Biden percentage of voters (38%) doesn’t change when Robert Kennedy Jr. is added to the equation as a third-party independent candidate.  However, the Trump support drops from 40% to 38%, essentially wiping out the lead that President Trump would hold in a general election over Joe Biden.

Given the intellectually honest assessment that RFK Jr., as an independent run, could never win the general election, it may annoy some people to accept his decision to run as an independent only carries one motive – to reduce the Trump vote.  However, as much as you may not want to accept that reality, the data is clear – and it makes sense.

Many right-leaning or politically homeless Trump voters have spent a great deal of time celebrating the positions of RFK Jr. and projecting a positive opinion toward him.  After thinking positively about him for so long, having to accept that RFK Jr. may not be as decent, honorable and/or altruistic in his intentions can be a painful admission.  I get it; but the reality of the situation doesn’t change.
