It would be far better to go back to party bosses picking their nominees than scrapping partisan primaries in favor of something that alienates the party base from their nominees as this proposes. https://t.co/4GFcCH28Fb— Erick Erickson (@EWErickson) May 12, 2021

This guy still alive?
He can try that crap, with the smoke-filled rooms, but it will end the same - Trump’s people (i.e., us) will dominate those meetings for two reasons:
1) We’re pissed.
2) Trump voters don’t mind cigarette smoke.

Repeal The 17th: Erick Erickson Must Go
This is from someone who is really, really stupid! Or they are just an enemy of the republic.
Looks like Trump hater Eric thinks he is the "base".
Absolutely not, at this point in time, a large percentage of the party bosses are still part of the establishment.
If his proposal became true, Liz Cheney would never lose and we would be stuck with her and the Republican voters would have no alternatives to get these people out.
My, this really sounds like being an apologist for the Bushes and such others.
It’s the only way to keep TransRepublicans in charge of the GOP, their days are numbered.
He remains 10 pounds of shite in a 5 pound bag.
Even most Democrat leadership knows they have to have members who present a certain image to be able to win in certain districts.
“It would be far better to go back to party bosses picking their nominees than scrapping partisan primaries in favor of something that alienates the party base from their nominees as this proposes”
I’ve read this slowly about three times and it’s not making sense to me.
It would be far better to go back to party bosses picking their nominees
(party bosses dictating you who your candidate is)
than scrapping partisan primaries
(going back to party bosses picking your candidate)
in favor of something that alienates the party base from their nominees as this proposes
(which is?)
(and how do “scrapping primaries” and “going back to party bosses” differ... and how does either not alienate the base)
This tweet makes no sense. I hope someone can explain.
Unfortunately. WSB gave him Limbaugh’s time slot in Atlanta for some inexplicable reason. Maybe it’s evidence that Georgia is full of Kemp-RINO types that do t care about the election.
Lots of weird things have happened in this country over the last couple of decades. Keep getting weirder. Why people thinks this guy still has some relevancy is one of them. Hopefully he’ll join the new party being formed by Never Trump folks and finally fade away.
Erick needs to go back and read some history on Boss Tweed. His suggestion would lead to the end of the republic.
He is both— a loser non-Georgian (as in from ‘up north’) who has some serious ego issues he’s never dealt with. It is ALL about him. They give him a radio slot from 9- Noon then Rush used to come on and counteract all this a@@clown’s bullcrap.
Open primaries sure— that’s the ticket. Check out Florida, mr blobbo erickson— you cannot vote in a republican primary as anything other than a republican. it keeps the lib dems out of the picture. This clown is no conservative— what he is is a fat overfed bigmouth with a small audience who thinks he can ride in with the Kemps and Raffensbergers of GA. He did a lot... to frankly aid the election steal with Stacey Abrams.
And NOTHING ever to help Doug Collins (there were radio ads against Collins as “voting with Stacey Abrams”— twisted crap from the GA legislature days of Collins. Who ran those? Why it was Kelly Loeffler!)
Who exactly has proposed eliminating party primaries— it is the demonrat losers... to set up the single party rule of the federal S.1 which must be prevented.
