The Top 3 Ways the Republicans Will Snatch Defeat from the Jaws of Victory

About a fortnight before, I was working at Donald Trump’s 2024 plan office, finetuning our short-term PR approach, when campaign manager Susie Wiles burst through the windows. She was VERY unhappy. But I’d be lying if I said I was surprised: She liked to do things one approach, I preferred another.

Finally, something— or, more specifically, one — had to lose to the other.

Before she could also declare a term, I rolled the ball and spoke initially:” I know what you’re thinking, Susie, so let’s just lay all our cards out on the table. You’re gonna try to replace me as Donald Trump’s official PR expert, are n’t you”?

I was surprised by her response:

” Scott, you always were our PR expert. You keep climbing through the glass and breaking into our headquarters, and therefore you eat one’s meals. Kindly leave us alone and left us alone.

We were working together again, but there was an undeniable glint in her eye that indicated that exciting stories are still to be written, even though this book may have come to an regrettable nearby. ( And once my restraining order expires, I’ll ask Susie all about it. )

Until for a moment, conservatives have been surveying the wealth of last week’s MAGA success, feeling triumphant. There’s been a sense of unrestrained enthusiasm.

But not TOO MUCH enthusiasm.

If you’re a liberal, it even feels a little bit like Lucy yanking the sports aside from Charlie Brown: Yeah, we won the election, but presently we kinda-sorta expect something to go bad. It’s the social type of battered-wife symptoms: We’re conditioned to anticipate abuse, neglect, deceit, and disappointment from our “leaders” on Capitol Hill.

This time, however, our democratic option is multigenerational: The Republicans did have control of the White House, the House of Representatives, the Senate, the Supreme Court&nbsp, —&nbsp, plus most governor’s’mansions! Like an alignment is smaller than Haley’s comet — and so, the cost of squandering it would be unfathomable.

After years of trying, it would be similar to eventually winning the Mega Millions jackpot before you could suddenly cash in your winnings.

Pessimism abounds, and rightly but, despite the joy from Election Day! We are so consumed by conservatism that we are frightened of the TV news walk:” Oh, no! What went wrong this time”?

So, without any further ado, here are the leading three approaches the GOP might somehow, someway screw this up:

One: Our parliamentary majority is rendered null and destitute by the Democrats by removing sufficient RINOs. &nbsp,

It’s a play from their criticism book that they’ve originally used to short-circuit GOP manage. As we noted:

Generally, the Democrats and/or advertising have been very successful at seducing cowardly, anxious Republicans. We’ve seen it happen earlier: Rush Limbaugh renamed him” Jumpin ‘ Jim”, but when Sen. James Jeffords left the GOP in 2001, it gave the Democrats control of the Senate.

A play will appear in the future if and/or when the Democrats are within striking distance of the lot.

But even without a clear-cut group departure, all the Liberals need are a few GOP congressmen or senators that they can scare, pay, strongarm or coax into election “no” enough times to drink up regulations. And it wo n’t take much: Two or three traitorous RINOs are more than enough to stall legislation, preventing it from ever escaping its various committees.

That’s their gameplan: Slow all down until the finals.

Two: Misplaced Republican objectives.

Yes, Trump and the GOP won a authority. And yes, that means everything. As President Obama so famously noted,” Elections have consequences” .&nbsp,

But a mission to complete … what?

The voters are suffering from sky-high inflation, economic hardships, the rising cost ( s ) of housing, and the ripple effect of a broken immigration system. The American people will be thrilled if Trump and the GOP concentrate on these problems like a laser beam. And they’ll praise the Republicans electorally.

Give the people what they want right away! &nbsp,

The American citizens will protest, however, if GOP activists defy the government’s plans to pursue other goals. They’ll feel tricked and deceived. The Trump administration needs to set the tone early to avoid having the media and/or Democrats determine our mission.

Three: Spontaneous problems.

This is the great one. We’re driving down the field. We have the puck. Our group excels above and beyond theirs. We should be able to endzone the game as long as we maintain ball control and execute the ball meticulously and effectively. Over and over again, to!

But we ca n’t afford any turnovers.

With a ( very ambitious ) MAGA platform to fulfill, we ca n’t waste ammo arguing about mean Tweets or embarrassing conduct. We do n’t want to lose a news cycle bickering about silly, inconsequential nonsense. &nbsp,

Our day is very valuable.

Our errors will be magnified by the press and the Democrats. And then, of course, they’ll pivot from the scandal du jour, using the blunder as an opportunity to run stories about Trump’s age ( “OMG, he’s so senile”! ) — or anything else that might update the tale.

When MAGA is the target, we prevail. Democrats and/or multimedia are aware of this, which is why they are so eager to change the text and start talking about something else.

They wo n’t have the chance if Team Trump runs between the tackles and the pounding away. We have the ball, never them. We just ca n’t be careless and turn the ball over: No interceptions, no turnovers, no boneheaded plays! &nbsp,

A meticulous, ball-control act will light up the score.

And that might be enough to make Susie Wiles forget I had those meals.
