The RINO Industrial Complex is not only alive and well, it's quite giddy at the prospect of major losses for the GOP in the 2026 midterm elections.
Former top Republican officials critical of President Trump are already taking to the airwaves predicting catastrophe.
The gridlock in Washington D.C. is not only due to the radical left fighting the MAGA agenda tooth and nail, the RINOs (Republicans in Name Only) have also been useful allies in placing almost every Trump policy under siege.
RINOs will secretly delay and obstruct, until they can extirpate MAGA from the GOP, a populist movement they see as a cancer to "their" political party.
Those hoping to return the GOP to a milquetoast version of the party that existed before President Trump won in 2016, are positively ebullient at the spectacle of prominent influencers taking turns insulting each other on the internet.
To complicate matters, so many fake Republican grifters have infiltrated the movement, that they're claiming the moral high ground defending the barbaric mullahs of Iran.
One is certainly unmoved by the spectacle of the radical left hoping for an American defeat in Iran, but anyone who disagrees with preventing a regime from getting nuclear weapons after that same government has murdered hundreds of Americans, itsown citizens, and others in cold blood, vows to destroy America and Israel, while committing indescribably horrific acts against tens of thousands of its own people, should reconsider.
There's nothing inconsistent with an America First Policy, understanding that negotiations shouldn't take place with lunatics, those willing to leverage nuclear missiles capable of reaching New York and Los Angeles.
If the mid-term disaster happens, the RINOs will be happy to blame these silly little feuds among the podcasters, and issues like Iran camouflaging the role they're playing in trying to weaken President Donald Trump.
This is a welcome distraction from the fact that puissant RINOs are quietly steering the Republican Party straight into the "drubbing" for which they are secretly hoping.
While no one should believe that impactful and lasting reforms take place effortlessly, you'd also need to be on a bad opium trip to believe that certain Republican politicians and lobbyists aren’t actively undermining the president’s policies.
The bizarre, and incomprehensible America Last trade policy that saw the United States lose 7.5 million manufacturing jobs in the past few decades is the inviolable golden calf of the RINO establishment that still exerts enormous control not just at the federal level, but at the state and local level.
During the first Trump administration, wages for working-class and middle-class families rose to historic gains not seen in decades.
Wage growth in the second administration is even more impressive.
The RINOs will never forgive President Trump.
They will bide their time; RINOs won't utter a word against the radical left for endangering Americans with their shutdown stunts, but they'll scream bloody murder because the president takes steps to protect American manufacturing.
Despite doom and gloom forecasts, the Trump administration is rapidly boosting private sector jobs, even while the Democrats literally shut down the government hoping to hurt the economy.
Republicans in Congress seem like helpless bystanders unable to pass laws that hold overwhelming public support. Our GOP majorities are in danger because the Democrats are far more unified heading into November.
Their gameplan is simple: delay and obstruct the president’s agenda, confuse the heck out of voters about why it’s so hard to get anything done in Washington, make them think that their votes don't matter unless President Trump is on the ballot.
This will produce record high turnout in Democrat strongholds, and surprisingly low turnout in Republican areas; a nationwide expansion of what happened in the last year's races in Virginia and New Jersey.
The RINOS in Congress are looking forward to the impeachment charade that is sure to follow if Republicans lose their majorities in Congress.
If you think the Democrats will hesitate to file articles of impeachment against the president (as many times as they see fit), please remember that this is the same party that had no shame in trying to impeach the president over a phone call to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, during which he urged him to root out corruption in his country.
It's time for every supporter of President Trump and the MAGA agenda to wake up and realize what's at stake. We're not going to agree with each other on every issue, and that's okay, but we must not let our egos become the reason we lose everything we've worked so hard to accomplish.
The late former Mayor of New York City Ed Koch framed it magnificently, "If you agree with me on nine out of twelve issues vote for me, if you agree with me on twelve out of twelve issues, see a psychiatrist."
Don't lose sight of what's important.
Let's get back to work registering new voters and making sure all of President Trump's supporters get out and vote in November.
