The author greatly overates resistance other than the personality of Donald Trump. If he were to have a serious health emergency MAGA would evaporate. The left and the statists are incredibly powerful and hydra headed. Strong opposition to the globo=homo establishment is basically a few strong personalities. The death of Rush Limbaugh has, for instance, been a much greater disaster to the right than I ever imagined. The rest of the talk radio community is so weak and unfocused and just not angry enough at the left to make much impression. If the Gopers can manage to be dragged across the finish line , fighting and resisting all the way, in the fall elections, does anyone think they will actually start fighting Biden every single day Congress is in session? The left will have to feel both so powerful and so paranoid that they will engage in actions that hit so close to home for millions of Americans that the timidity, Karen=resistance, inertia of business as usual, and the dead hand of of middle class passivity and being a ‘goood person will finally be breached. The drag queens in schools and the queering kids program has set off a small but really angry resistance movement. An attempt at ‘civilian disarmament’ as part of a ‘National State of Emergency’ could trigger a real revolt in the fly over country that the left greatly under rates.
While I liked Rush, his departure created an opening for other commentators. Liberals who would avoid Rush because of his name might stumble across someone else. Stations that had to find new programming might decide they can live without Hannity, too. Or Hannity might up his game.
Are Clay and Buck as good as Rush? Maybe not, but they’re pretty good. Bo Snerdley isn’t my favorite, but he’s listenable. Jesse Kelly has a lot of fire in his belly, and has a sense of humor, too.
Greg Kelly, Dennis Prager, Glenn Beck, Ben Shapiro are all OK.
Surprisingly, Anthony Weiner is an OK listen. I don’t generally agree with him, but he’s articulate and cogent.
less than a year ago we proved in Virginia
grassroots conservatives don’t need Trump at all
we exceeded his performance by 12.5% y/y, did election integrity effectively where he failed to execute, won a key culture war fight (CRT) he couldn’t
our Trump-free excellence was so extreme, I still hear of cases of the hundreds of school board seats nationwide that we flipped to anti-woke conservatives
total lifetime Trump contributions to all candidates in that race amount to a $25,000 check to Terry McAuliffe
not only is he not all that, in the real world he’s a dubious and unreliable ally at best
MAGA took a back seat to Fauci on a dime... as worthy a cause as MAGA is, Trump just doesn’t have what it takes to get the job done
guy is drenched in money but a bunch of grassroots conservatives organizing locally ad hoc the best they could blasted his performance out of the water
