Trump Responds to Possible Trump-DeSantis 2024 Ticket as Only He Can

July 1, 2022 by Mike Miller Leave a Comment

The question is being asked on a regular basis, now. What about a Trump-DeSantis “dream team” ticket in 2024? Is it a possibility? Would Donald Trump make the offer, knowing how popular Ron DeSantis is?

Perhaps more importantly, would DeSantis accept it?

Various reports suggest that the popular Florida governor doesn’t want Trump’s 2022 re-endorsement in the gubernatorial election, nor does he want Trump to campaign for him. But while Trump has begun to dance around the 2024 question, DeSantis appears to want zero to do with answering it.

Also, during an interview with Newsmax TV on Thursday, Trump said he’s not ruling out DeSantis as a possible running mate. That is if Donald actually [winking emoji] runs. Trump told Newsmax he has a good relationship with DeSantis — right before going full-metal Trumpian, and attempting to take credit for DeSantis’s success and popularity in the Sunshine State, as transcribed by The Epoch Times:

Well, I get along with him. I was very responsible for his success because I endorsed him and he went up like a rocket ship.

Trump was referring to his 2018 endorsement of DeSantis in his gubernatorial run against Democrat Andrew Gillum. Speaking of Gillum, as my colleague Nick Arama reported on June 22, he was charged in a 21-count federal indictment with conspiracy, wire fraud, and making false statements to FBI agents.

Anyway, here’s Trump on DeSantis again, via Newsmax:

I was very responsible for him getting elected, as you know, but I have a very good relationship with him.

Either way, DeSantis remains a popular choice to dethrone Trump in 2024; if Trump is to be dethroned.

As I reported earlier in June, Trump played nice with the possibility of a DeSantis challenge for the 2024 nomination during an interview with The New Yorker. Trump told the magazine he wasn’t really worried about DeSantis in 2024, one way or the other. Why? As transcribed by The New Yorker:

I don’t know if Ron is running, and I don’t ask him. It’s his prerogative. I think I would win.

DeSantis’s “prerogative” aside, as I noted in the article, behind-the-scenes machinations would suggest that both camps are already plotting — or at the minimum, considering — strategies against the other.

Translation: popcorn. We’re going to need a lot of popcorn.

Longtime Republican campaign strategist Brooke Rollins told The Epoch Times on June 14, several weeks before a Ready for Ron PAC was created in support of a DeSantis run, that “The information I’ve gotten the last several weeks is Trump is definitely running,” which should come as zero surprise to zero people.

“We’re not working at all against Trump,” Rollins said, adding:

At that point in time, I didn’t know if he [Trump] was running or not. What I’ve said since has made it clear is that he [DeSantis] won’t run against Trump.

One wonders if Rollins — as well as Team Trump — is still so sure about that.

As RedState reported in late June, a New Hampshire poll conducted June 16-20 by the University of New Hampshire showed DeSantis leading Trump for the nomination, and beating Joe Biden in a general election matchup. Trump was shown losing by seven points to Biden in the same poll.

The bottom line:

Regardless of how 2024 plays out, as I suggested, above, we’re going to need a hell of a lot of popcorn. Trump would not go down easily — let alone “accept” other (“disloyal”) Republicans entering the race, and would likely resort to the same types of ad hominem attacks he hurled at “Little Marco,” “Lying Ted,” “Low-Energy Jeb,” and nearly every other candidate in the Republican primary race.

And if DeSantis does decide to challenge Trump, he will be formidable as hell, and he will give it all he has to give — just as we have seen him do time and time again against Florida Democrats, the Biden Administration, public education, and of course, his steely-eyed shellacking of Disney. And, like Trump, the Florida governor refuses to take crap from anyone who gets in his way. I’ll tell you this:

2024 is going to make 2016 and 2020 look like Sunday school picnics.

Hopefully, sans the Jan. 6 silliness, of course.

Primer: The Absolute Folly of #SteeringWheelGate Summarized in Two Tweets

June 30, 2022 by Sister Toldjah Leave a Comment

As we previously reported, though the January 6th Committee show trials rank low on the priorities list as far as the American people are concerned, Democrats and their NeverTrump allies seem hellbent on seeing them through. This despite there being not even one iota of solid evidence presented that former President Donald Trump intended to incite supporters to get them to breach the Capitol that day and/or was involved in some vast alleged conspiracy/plot to subvert the democratic process or whatever.

A perfect example of the sham nature of the “surprise” proceedings this week is in how then-Trump chief of staff Mark Meadows’ aide and “star” witness Cassidy Hutchinson’s testimony imploded on multiple levels, as we also noted, with the “blockbuster” part of it – namely where she gave hearsay testimony about how Trump allegedly tried to take over “The Beast” from the Secret Service because he badly wanted to go to the Capitol to join the protesters – being strongly countered by the Secret Service, who say they are prepared to give additional testimony if called upon to do so.

The short but memorable journey through #SteeringWheelGate has been a fascinating one. But because the mainstream media hasn’t done their due diligence in uncovering the who/what/when/where/why of how it unfolded – specifically as to why third-hand testimony was allowed and without the benefit of also calling on actual witnesses for another round of questioning to either corroborate or counter said testimony, former NRSCer Matt Whitlock provided a handy two-tweet primer on what went down this week, including how The Usual Suspects conveniently changed their tunes on the supposed “importance” of the “Beast” story once it started to fall apart:

Join me on a JOURNEY through #SteeringWheelGate

1️⃣ J6 Committee bills “explosive testimony” including steering wheel chaos
2️⃣ Networks cover extensively

The “interview” on CNN involving committee member Jamie Raskin, who despite repeatedly claiming that questioning election results was wrong has himself attempted to block a president-elect’s victory from being certified, was particularly revealing not so much for what he said but for what he didn’t say:

This was important – at the time of the interview Raskin was aware the committee had decided *against* seeking corroboration from the Secret Service, likely knowing it would blow up their “explosive testimony.”

Incredible they went to air with such flimsy stuff. https://t.co/NXwEeY8K08

— Matt Whitlock (@mattdizwhitlock) June 30, 2022

Just incredible.

If you have any on-the-fence friends or family members who like talking politics and aren’t sure how they’ll vote in November, show them what we’ve written here about this issue and show them the tweets. Let them know that these types of pointless “get Trump” charades will continue if Democrats maintain their hold on the House and Senate when there are obviously more pressing concerns that need to be addressed as far as most voters are concerned.

We got four years of “walls are closing in” nothing-burgers from Democrats during Trump’s time in office and people are sick of it. He’s not in office anymore, but rabidly partisan Democrats are still at it because right now they have the power to do so. It’s time to move on, but the only way to get them to do so is by way of the ballot box, where the strongest of signals can and should be sent.

Cassidy Hutchinson's 'Bombshell' Testimony Takes Another Body Blow

June 30, 2022 by Bonchie Leave a Comment

We are quickly reaching the point where it’s more apt to ask exactly what was true about Cassidy Hutchinson’s “bombshell” testimony before the January 6th committee on Wednesday.

As RedState has chronicled, multiple claims made by the former White House aide have been challenged by eye-witnesses. That includes two Secret Service agents who are offering to testify that Donald Trump did not, in fact, karate chop them in the throat and attempt to grab the wheel of a presidential vehicle. A White House lawyer also disputed Hutchinson’s claim that she wrote a note regarding Donald Trump’s response to January 6th, noting that his and others’ prior testimony confirms he wrote it.

Now Hutchinson’s story is crumbling further.

During her testimony, Hutchinson claimed that Cipollone told her to tell her boss, Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, that former President Donald Trump should not go to the Capitol on January 6.

Hutchinson testified that Cipollone said, “We’re going to get charged with every crime imaginable,” if Trump went to the Capitol…

…“Multiple sources including one who was at the WH on Jan 6 tell me Cipollone was not there in the am when Hutchinson testified she spoke with him,” Posobiec tweeted on Wednesday evening.

The January 6 Committee “is aware of this discrepancy,” according to Posobiec, and “are ignoring media inquiries about it.”

To be fair, this is an anonymously sourced rebuttal, so it’s possible Hutchinson is telling the truth and the sources are lying, but why would anyone assume that given how much her prior allegations have fallen apart?

While the House of Representatives is not a court of law, the same principles still apply when judging the credibility of a supposed witness, and to be sure, Hutchinson didn’t even “witness” most of what she claimed. That two of her revelations, including the one that led the news cycle, have already been contradicted on the record is relevant, and I see no reason to doubt that she also lied about talking to Cipollone.

Here’s what I think happened here, and I think you have to start with the fact that Hutchinson didn’t share any of this for a year-and-a-half. Ask yourself why should choose to speak up now? If she truly felt crimes were committed, why not go public immediately? She would have been painted as an absolute hero had she done so.

That Hutchinson waited this long and that her claims have been contradicted so quickly points to a woman who is looking to rehabilitate herself. There’s already a list of January 6th committee witnesses who have gone on to get cable news gigs and book deals. Without her testimony, Hutchinson would have remained a pariah in DC, having worked for the bad orange man. This was her chance to “fix” things, setting herself up as a “good” one so she could continue to advance in the swamp.

And to be sure, that’s exactly what will happen. She will be elevated, given cable news hits, and likely hired to some lucrative contract by some network or liberal lobbying outfit. Democrats take care of those who help their narrative, and Hutchinson is no different. She knows exactly what she stands to gain, even if it means massaging the truth a bit along the way.

No Matter What NeverTrump Says, Dobbs Was a Victory for and by President Trump

June 29, 2022 by streiff Leave a Comment

Friday, the US Supreme Court overturned the travesty that was Roe vs. Wade and its idiot stepchild, Planned Parenthood vs. Casey, in a 6-3 decision. In doing so, it lifted from our nation the shame it has borne for 50 years as some 60 million babies were butchered, mostly out of convenience.

The credit for that decision goes to two men: Mitch McConnell and President Trump. McConnell courageously held open the vacancy on the Supreme Court created by the death of Justice Scalia (Love Him or Hate Him, Mitch McConnell Was the Key Man In Getting Rid of the National Shame of Roe and Casey). President Trump filled the three nominations available to him by conservative, textualist candidates (Roe Is Dead and We Have Trump to Thank for That). And a McConnell rose to the challenge of seeing through the confirmation of two difficult candidates, Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett. Kavanaugh, of course, was the subject of a well-funded and coordinated smear campaign based on the debunked “testimony” of what can only be described as a nutter. Barrett, confirmed as the 2020 election loomed, opened McConnell to charges of hypocrisy over filling the seat on the eve of an election while refusing to allow Obama to do the same.

I’ll be the first to say I was not a Donald Trump fan. If you read my posts from 2015-2016, it would be fair to say that I was strongly anti-Trump until Trump was nominated. I focused on writing about Hillary’s flaws and not Trump’s virtues during the campaign. I’m not sure I would be called a Trump fan today. The reasons for all of that might make an interesting post…or not. Be that as it may, a few things were obvious about Trump as a candidate and president.

First, he didn’t have strong political beliefs. Many, including one former writer here a RedState, used to get what seemed to be sexual gratification from calling Trump a “New York liberal.” But, as a salesman, he knew what was important to those who voted for them. To this day, I’m not terribly sure what Trump believes, but I’m also sure that it doesn’t matter.

Second, he didn’t hold Americans in “fly over country” in contempt. I think Trump connected with conservative Americans in a way that no candidate since Ronald Reagan has managed to do because he wasn’t laughing at us to his rich liberal buddies at cocktail parties.

Third, in the words of my Old Man, “ya dance with them what brung ya.” When Trump was sworn in, he had a choice to make. He could stay true to the people who voted for him or yield to the siren call of Washington’s social life. In a singular act of political courage, he chose loyalty to his supporters.

One of those signs of loyalty was Trump’s overt embrace of the Pro-Life Movement. I’m not sure that Trump had ever spent ten consecutive seconds thinking about the issue of abortion. From his life and lifestyle, I’d not be surprised to find that he didn’t have a personal problem with this horrific practice. Unlike President George W. Bush, whom I admired, Trump was not ashamed of us. President Trump became the first president to personally appear at the March for Life rally since its inception in 1974. Neither Reagan nor Bush, all of whom talked big talk about being pro-life, ever made an appearance, but a New York City playboy cared enough to show up. When it came time to appoint justices, Trump delivered three whose records indicated they were pro-life and conservative.

Unsurprisingly, people who made a career out of being “Never Trump” are trying to rewrite history to take credit for something that happened despite their best efforts. One such article comes from Kevin Williamson at the National Review. Williamson claims that This Is Not Donald Trump’s Victory. Who then deserves credit? Why all the RightKindofPeople™ who denigrated Trump and his supporters. And he’s back at it.

Question: Is expecting to win the lottery a responsible way to plan for your retirement?

Answer: Don’t be a goddamned jackass. Of course not.

A lucky or unlikely outcome, no matter how pleasing it is when it happens, does not retroactively redeem stupid and irresponsible decisions. The fact that something dumb worked out in a fortunate way does not mean that the thinking that went into it wasn’t stupid and irresponsible.

SPOILER ALERT: If you haven’t figured it out yet, you, my friend, are the jackass.

The themes of Trump as a buffoon, his supporters as poorly educated yokels, and monkey imagery are recurring with this author. Nearly two years ago, my friend Mike Ford took issue when Williams gratuitously insulted Trump, his family, and everyone who voted for him (see Opinion: Great Move NRO; Insult 75 MILLION Americans). Williamson fired back in a screed called Rage-Monkeys Gonna Rage, in which he called Mike–a West Point graduate, honor graduate of Ranger School, holder of a master’s degree, decorated combat veteran, and a retired infantry colonel–“[s]ome illiterate jabroni over at RedState.” Mike’s response in Opinion: I Am Cletus is a classic.

If you’ve ever been around Kevin Williamson, you’re jaw drops at how down-to-earth, gifted, erudite, and flat-out smarter than everyone in the room he is. That’s what being around @ChrisStirewalt is like.

It was movement conservatism — the institutions derided as “Conservative Inc.” by the rage-monkeys of Twitter and talk radio — that kept the Trump presidency from being a disaster for the Right. Trump signed Paul Ryan’s tax bill, he took up the Club for Growth’s deregulatory agenda, hired a couple of National Review editors for economic-policy advice (he should have listened to them more than he did), and, critically, delegated his judicial selections to the Federalist Society — because he did not really have any choice as a matter of political reality. You can’t be a Republican presidential candidate without backing — or at least saying you back — an originalist approach to the federal judiciary.

That is where you see the success of the long-term efforts of the conservative movement: Trump didn’t find Amy Coney Barrett on The Apprentice. And you have the Federalist Society and the broader conservative movement to thank for the fact that there was no Omarosa Manigault Newman nomination for the Supreme Court — or, God help us, a Maryanne Trump Barry nomination.

A pause here for a brief fact check. The famous lists of possible Supreme Court nominees were developed inside the Trump White House by a team led by Don McGahn. The Federalist Society executive vice president Leonard Leo was an adviser. The selections were not by any stretch of the imagination “delegated.” In fact, it was Conservative, Inc. insiders who howled as loudly as the Washington Post editorial board about how the proposed justices would scare moderate voters.

This is all fine and dandy, but do you know what Conservative, Inc. couldn’t do? Win a single freakin election. Conservative, Inc. gave us John McCain and Mitt Romney. Conservative, Inc. tried to sell us on Scott Walker and Jeb Bush. Conservative, Inc. sent our manufacturing to China and didn’t care about illegal immigration or H1B abuse because their jobs were not in jeopardy. Conservative, Inc. actively attempted to ensure the election of Hillary Clinton because they couldn’t stand the thought of the crass, nouveau riche real estate salesman from the Outer Boroughs who liked his steak well-done with catsup being president no matter what the cost to our nation of a Clinton presidency.

The author of the Dobbs decision was appointed by George W. Bush, not by Donald Trump. The most important originalist on the Court, Clarence Thomas, was appointed by George H. W. Bush. Donald Trump is not a trailblazing champion of constitutionalism — he is a guy who got out in front of a parade and pretended to be leading it

Sure, George W. Bush gave us Samuel Alito. But, do you know who else he gave us? John Roberts. Roberts is the guy whose concurrence in Dobbs tells the majority that included all three Trump-appointed justices that they were completely wrong in their decision. In a weird way, we are lucky to have John Roberts. We were saved from much worse because Bush couldn’t find enough inbred senators willing to foist Harriet Miers off on us. I agree that Clarence Thomas is a treasure. But do you know who else George H. W. Bush put on the bench? David Souter. Souter wrote the opinion in Casey that sought to forever lock in abortion as a Constitutional right. He voted with the majority in the Lawrence vs. Texas decision that changed or placid “slouching towards Gomorrah” posture into the Usain Bolt-style sprint that put us on the glide path to codifying a cheap simulacrum of actual marriage as the law of the land.

Am I glad to see Roe gone? Absolutely. Do I think that Trump’s role in this could have been performed by a reasonably well-trained monkey? Absolutely.

If a “reasonably well-trained monkey” can get elected president, I’m not sure what it says about a political movement that is routinely repudiated at the polls. I’m definitely not sure what it says about the competence of either Bush administration. Perhaps we’d been better off with a couple of those simians when the “read my lips, no new taxes” pledge was made, and we decided our mission in Afghanistan was building schools for girls.

A few final thoughts.

Legendary Green Bay Packers Coach Vince Lombardi was famous for saying, “Winning isn’t everything, but it’s the only thing. In our business, there is no second place; you’re either first or last.” This is much more true in politics than it is in football. Winning is all that matters—winning ugly counts precisely the same as winning with skill and elegance. Winning by one vote is just as valid as winning by a landslide. Politics is not an “it’s how you play the game” activity. If you don’t win, your principles and ideas can go f…I mean, hang themselves. Conservative, Inc. doesn’t operate that way. They want to be lauded for being clever and cultured. They really don’t care if they win or lose because the think tank, cable news commentator, and political journalism gigs are always there. As the t-shirt slogan says: First prize–all the marbles; Second prize–a set of steak knives; The choice is yours.

All the big thoughts by Conservative, Inc. are just as substantial as the “The Road Song of the Bandar Log.”

Much like the target of Hotspur’s scorn in Shakespeare’s Henry IV (“but for these vile guns/He would himself have been a soldier.” ), Conservative Inc. would be soldiers if they didn’t have to do anything but talk.

The Gospel Matthew (21:28-32) contains the Parable of the Two Sons. The story is that a father asks his two sons to go work in the vineyard. One tells his father “no,” but then relents and goes off to work. The other tells his father, “yes,’ and doesn’t go. The question is, who actually did their father’s will? I’m not trying to make a theological argument defending Trump; I am merely using this well-known (at least I hope) Bible reading as a point of departure for a comparison. Trump spent his entire life never giving much thought to governance. Yet once he was president, he governed more conservatively than any president in the past 20 years. Not only on Life but the economy, neutering Iran, the Abraham Accords, and, I’d contend, bullying the freeloaders in NATO into starting to meet their obligations. In essence, he said “no” at first but ended up doing the hard work in the vineyard.

On the other hand, we had “conservatives” who were elected, pledging to defend life. When it came down to nut-cutting time, they still agreed to fund Planned Parenthood, ignore the Pro-Life Movement outside of election year photo-ops, and appointed judges who, to this day, continue to support abortion and anything else the administrative state desires. They are the ones who said “yes,” and decided they liked being invited to the cool parties and maybe moving out of the conservative punditry ghetto more than fighting for causes. So who was actually the more conservative?

Donald Trump won in 2016. He won because he likes to win and because he knows if you aren’t a winner, you are the other thing…that would be a loser.

Because of his win, something that most Never Trumpers still haven’t recovered from, he was able to appoint three justices to the Supreme Court. Yes, President Trump had advisors who accepted and vetted the recommendations of the Federalist Society. Those recommendations, however, are useless unless you win. I’d also point out that George H. W. Bush and George W. Bush also had the advice of the Federalist Society; that advice gave us the author of Casey and the faux-concurrence in Dobbs.

There is a place inside the conservative tent for thinkers as well as for doers. What there isn’t a place for are people who fought tooth and nail to keep abortion legal by supporting Hillary Clinton…and Joe Biden…and then claim the Dobbs victory for themselves and their fellow travelers because they had wonderful thoughts and wrote erudite articles.

Donald Trump Scores Win Against Letitia James' New York Witch-Hunt

June 29, 2022 by Bonchie Leave a Comment

Donald Trump scored a victory on Wednesday in New York against Letitia James’ witch-hunt “investigation” into the former president’s business dealings. Back in late April, Trump was held in contempt by a judge handling the case for supposedly not turning over requested documents.

That ruling has now been lifted, according to CBS News.

BREAKING: A New York judge ruled that Donald Trump is no longer in contempt for failing to turn over documents demanded in a subpoena by the state’s attorney general. https://t.co/RyuadDtWaj

— CBS News (@CBSNews) June 29, 2022

A New York judge ruled Wednesday that Donald Trump is no longer in contempt for failing to turn over documents demanded in a subpoena by the state’s attorney general.

The former president’s April 25 contempt finding came after he contested a December subpoena seeking records related to his personal finances and the financing of several properties. Trump claimed he had no material that was responsive to the subpoena, leading to demands by the judge and the office of New York Attorney General Letitia James that his attorneys provide detailed explanations of how they conducted their search.

“Although we are pleased that the court has lifted the contempt finding, we maintain that it was wholly unwarranted and improper in the first place,” Alina Habba, an attorney for Trump, said in a text message. “We will push ahead with our appeal to secure justice for our client.”

Apparently, the judge was satisfied with Trump’s assertion (and the assertions of his associates) that he simply doesn’t have the documents James wants. Multiple members of the president’s organization filed affidavits explaining a lack of centralized organization for records. Trump himself filed one that stated that he typically delegates such work to underlings, which makes perfect sense.

That doesn’t mean Trump’s organization doesn’t keep any financial records, but it does mean they don’t have any specific policy to keep random documents related directly to Trump. James, being the leftwing hack she is, is obviously fishing for dirt on the former president, and according to the report, is none too happy with that development.

Trump’s lawyers seemed to troll James a bit in turning over some handwritten notes from Trump, though.

Trump attorney Alina Habba noted in a June 8 letter to the court that “a vast number” of documents showing Trump’s “handwritten notes” had been turned over by the Trump Organization. Habba’s letter was accompanied by eight exhibits that include several photos of the golf legend Gary Player, on which Trump had written “Great,” as well as several legal and design documents in which he wrote “OK.” There was also a note from his daughter on a planning document related to a Trump property in Doral, Florida.

I’m sure writing “great” on the picture of a golf player will serve as damning evidence for James’ pursuits. Conversely, there’s just nothing really here to find, and that’s the problem with witch-hunts. They begin with a conclusion and then bad-faith actors have to try to backfill the evidence to fit that conclusion. There was never any basis for James to investigate Trump’s business dealings. Rather, the entire thing was her simply continuing the partisan pursuit she started while she was campaigning to become attorney general. She promised to take down Trump, and this is her way of trying to deliver, facts need not apply.

I won’t claim to know how exactly this is going to turn out, but I suspect it won’t amount to much. I guess we’ll find out, but it doesn’t seem as if Trump is too worried about it.
