Are Republicans really that stupid?

Are Republicans that stupid?

Not since 1984 has Washington State’s electoral votes gone to the Republican Party.

So here is my question. Unless you believe Washington State is a swing state and that the Republicans, for the first time since Ronald Reagan’s reelection in 1984, have the chance of going red, you are all arguing and dividing the party for no reason!

I didn’t vote for McCain in 2008. Do you want to know why? The only important reason I need to give you is this; there was never a chance he was going to be president; there was an even smaller chance than 0 that he would win WA State. So I voted for someone who more closely represented my conservative values, Chuck Baldwin of the Constitution Party.

I get so tired of listening to people grill people to vote for the lesser of evils if you don’t back the nominee, you are supporting the other guy… That logic can only be intelligently used if the electoral votes are possibly going to the Republican Party.

Unless WA State is a swing state, IT DOESN'T MATTER!!! It doesn’t matter if you vote Republican, Libertarian, Constitution Party, or if you write in Mickey Mouse.

So why on earth are Republicans cycle after cycle arguing with each other over casting a meaningless vote? There can be only one reason; we are stupid.

We are stupid, and instead of working together to win down-ticket races, we divide ourselves over an election that we are not even participating in. We argue with one another, demand people support the nominee, and fight like hell with each other as if it could make any difference in the outcome.

Meanwhile, things we do have the power to influence, local elections, suffer from personal resentments that run deep and last for years, sometimes decades, and even generations.

I beg of you all, unless WA State is a swing state, PLEASE SHUT YOUR FACE and learn the process.

Grassroots Revolt Against GOP Elitism

By Matthew Hayward In the complex arena of political strategy, even those who occupy the highest echelons of power can falter, demonstrating a profound disconnect between their strategic intentions and operational execution. The recent failure to secure the endorsement for their preferred candidate, Dave Reichert, is not merely a setback; it is a revealing exposé of the grave strategic missteps at the heart of the Republican party's establishment in Washington State. These seasoned campaigners, these stewards of conservative strategy, have evidently underestimated the critical importance of grassroots engagement. While I acknowledge the logic behind promoting an established politician strategically positioned geographically and perceived as moderate in our swing state—a strategy driven by considerations of electability, which admittedly has its merits—the incessant focus on this argument and complete lack of any meaningful engagement and education has alienated the grassroots yet a...

Could Today Be the Cheapest Price for Bitcoin Ever Again? Here’s Why

By: Matthew Hayward Current price Nov 10, 2024 76.72K 80.43K Is Now the Time to Buy Bitcoin? Bitcoin has come a long way since its early days as a niche digital asset. Today, as we enter another phase in its established four-year cycle , Bitcoin may be at a historic high, but it could soon become the new baseline price. This cycle, which has repeatedly shown Bitcoin’s resilience and long-term growth potential, suggests that the current price might be the lowest we’ll see again. While recent political shifts, including Donald Trump’s landslide election victory, have added new momentum and support for Bitcoin, the timing within the cycle itself makes this an ideal moment to consider buying. A Political Shift: From Anti-Crypto to Pro-Crypto For years, Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have faced an uphill battle against a U.S. government determined to restrict and control their growth. This opposition was largely led by Gary Gensler, who waged an outright war against crypto from hi...

When the Census Goes Beyond the Constitution

By Matthew Hayward The Census: From Counting People to Collecting Control The Constitution established the census as a straightforward tool for representation—nothing more, nothing less. Article I, Section 2 mandates an enumeration every ten years to determine how many representatives each state is allotted. That’s it. Simple. Effective. Proportional representation was the goal, and the census was designed to achieve it. So how did we end up here—with government agents asking about the number of bathrooms in our homes, our ethnic identities, and everything in between? This is the creeping hand of central planning at work. What began as a tool to empower individual representation has been twisted into a mechanism to empower bureaucrats, planners, and those who believe they know better than free individuals how to run their own lives. Central Planning: The False Promise of Data The justification for prying into the most intimate details of our lives is always the same: “We need the ...
