Nah, the neverTrumpers have already done that.
There are polls out there showing him with a plurality lead among GOP primary voters. But those "primary voters" are not who will be doing the voting for the RNC Chairman race. It will be the 168 members of the RNC (3 people from each state and territory) who do the voting. Doubt Lindell will get very close. One thing that both party committees will insist upon is some kind of experience within the party, or things related to party activities (i.e. fundraising for the party, former elected official of the party, etc....). Not saying Lindell isn't some kind of magician who come come in and transform. Who knows. Anything CAN happen. Just looking at how the 168 members of the RNC view the world. Every one of them has years of working in the party at one or more levels. Every one of them was elected at their state convention, by people dedicated enough to a partisan cause to attend a cascade of political conventions every 2 years. It is by definition a world of insiders....perhaps grassrootsy types, perhaps moderate or fundraising or wonky types who don't always agree on things. But all of them have spent much of their adult lives working on their passion to the degree that like minded people respect them enough to elect them precinct chair, county chair, state board of directors, state chairman, etc..... They do BELIEVE in the party. It would be hard to find a more discordant choice for such a worldview than a quirky TV pillow salesman who is drawn to controversy like the proverbial moth to the flame. To be clear, there is a role for a person like that in politics. Leadership of the party is not it.
They re-elected Ronna McRomney so the republicans basically told 90% of their voting base that they dont care what they think. Republicans are a useless and dead party.
It's a terrible political party that only cares about tax cuts and corporate interests….
And the Democrats somehow tend to be worse and openly anti-white.
And people wonder how Trump got elected.
Average Americans are desperate for something else.
^^ This ^^
Donald Trump did not get elected because America wanted Donald Trump.
He got elected in 2016 because people wanted no more Clintons, Bushes, Romneys or other plastic fakes.
^ ^ ^ this ^ ^ ^
Biden got elected in 2020 because people wanted no more Trump.
So nominate Trump again and get more trading cards for $100 each while the nation gets another liberal POTUS.
That's okay as long as we elect liberal Democrats instead of RINOs
That's what will happen if you refuse to vote for the GOP nominee.
Who is it?
why on earth would it matter? there is no Republican on the horizon who would not be an improvement over the current nutjob. Neither is there any Democrat on the horizon who would not be an improvement over the current nutjob.
Amen to this. It shocks me that so many people miss this.
The old adage of cutting your nose off to spite your face is apropos here. We have some clueless "conservatives" on this board.
Voting for a candidate who incited insurrection and suggests changing the Constitution (or ignoring it) isn't conservative. People who vote for him are not conservative.
I don't want Trump either. But anyone who would call themselves conservative but prefers woke madness to Trump is a fool.
We are going to nominate
someone for 2024.
If it's a qualified candidate I respect like DeSantis, he's got my vote
But even if it's Trump, I know from long experience he would be better than the Democrat, so he would get my vote, even though I would support someone else in the Primaries.
At the end of it all, doing anything that helps put a Democrat in office is morally heinous and should never happen.
That which does not kill me, will try again and get nastier
