Donald Trump Threatens DC Republican Voters

Even after having lived through these past eight years of Donald Trump and his clown car insanity, we all have to admit his most recent campaign stunt has surprised even us.

Tomorrow is the Washington, D.C. Republican Presidential Primary and for all his talk of wanting to “drain the swamp”, Trump is scared that he might lose the DC Primary.

Politico last night reported on Trump’s latest temper tantrum:

Donald Trump’s campaign wants Republican lobbyists in D.C. to know: If they don’t vote in this Sunday’s primary, they won’t get access should the former president end up back in the White House.

“If you don’t bother voting, don’t bother calling,” said one Trump campaign official, who was granted anonymity to speak about campaign strategy. 

Bryan Lanza, a Washington, D.C.-based Republican lobbyist who served on Trump’s 2016 campaign and his White House transition team, said that “The Trump campaign is very cognizant of who makes up the GOP primary voters in DC.” He added, “The worst thing for them would be not showing up.”

The ultimatum constitutes a blunt threat toward the influence-peddling community, one that is highly unusual for a presidential campaign but fits the more publicly hardball model that Trump has often applied to governance.

Under D.C. law, campaigns are unable to know which candidates individual voters cast ballots for. But campaigns can access voter rolls from the District of Columbia’s Board of Elections to see who voted in the primary and who didn’t. A Trump campaign aide said they would be looking at the rolls when they were made available.

After reading this report our thoughts are that Trump and his campaign are clearly afraid of losing the DC primary, and that they don’t have nearly the confidence in themselves that they claim to have. So far Donald Trump has won every primary and caucus so far. However apparently Nikki Haley’s primary challenge has him more scared than he likes to let on. A Haley win in DC tomorrow could give her a boost leading into the Super Tuesday contests two days later.

Although it’s most likely at the moment at least that Trump will be the nominee, should she win a few primaries on Tuesday or keep it much closer than expected that will only continue to undermine Trump and grow the cadre of Republican voters who will not vote for Trump. Ambassador Haley had this to say about Trump’s latest outburst:

Do we seriously have a presidential candidate threatening retribution if people don’t vote for him? #SinkingShip https://t.co/CLDGMBaOHH

It also occurred to us another thing that could be upsetting the Donald is that Republican Senators Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Susan Collins of Maine have both come out and endorsed Haley ahead of Super Tuesday. Since Trump cannot stand women standing up to him, it stands to reason that the man baby is so bent out of shape. Here’s to hoping that DC Republicans give the finger to Trump on Sunday!

On Tuesday we recommend keeping an eye on Vermont, Virginia, Massachusetts, Maine, Utah and Colorado. Some interesting things might be on the horizon. 

Some Words of Encouragement about tonight’s Primaries

Congresswoman Liz Cheney Real Republican-WY

Tonight there are primaries in both Wyoming and Alaska. This primary season we have had our share of wins, with Brad Raffensperger and Brian Kemp in Georgia, Congressman Don Bacon of Nebraska, and Congressmen Dan Newhouse of Washington, and Congressman David Valado of California. On the loses side we have had Congressman Tom Rice of South Carolina, Congressman Peter Meijer of Michigan and Congresswoman  Jaime Herrera Beutler of Washington, and most probably the great Congresswoman Liz Cheney of Wyoming.

Senator Lisa Murkowski Real Republican-Alaska 

However even if Congresswoman Cheney does lose tonight, it appears that Senator Lisa Murkowski of Alaska will make through to the general election. We like all of you are disappointed in what loses we have had so far, but we are also jubilant over our victories. This will be a long and difficult struggle, but we are united in our belief in upholding the Constitution, and defending the Republic for which it stands. Unlike the talking heads of the extreme left and right, we believe in the equality of opportunity, the rule of law, and that the United States should show protection to all and favoritism towards no one. We believe truly in the nations motto E Pluribus Unum “Out of Many One”. We are one nation, we are the United States of America. We are united in our faith that the United States is a “shining city on the hill”, we are the candle in the darkness, and we are willing to atone for our sins and to aspire to the better angels of our nature. 

We will persevere, and ultimately win because unlike the forces of illiberalism on the left and right, we have a positive vision of our nation and ourselves. We do not subscribe to the dark, grievance politics of the Trumpian Alt-Right, or the Loony Left. Regardless of tonight’s results we will fight on, we will seek out and find the politically homeless, and set the captives of anti Americanism free from lies and deception and help them to see the truth. That this is indeed the greatest nation on God’s Green Earth!!! 

Go forth and continue to fight for the rights of all, to be an individual not merely just a cog in some arbitrary group. Understand that you can positively affect your own destiny, now go out there, vote for the candidates who best reflect your values! Your constitutional right to vote, is more important than any tribalist edicts! The decision as to who will represent us at the local, state and national levels is yours and yours alone!!!!!

Go out there, campaign with your head held high! Vote only for the best possible candidates! Don’t believe that you must always pick the lesser of two evils! Remember those who disagree with us are usually just our opponents, not our enemies! I have faith in you all and in God that the best days for America are still ahead! Be part of making America more great!!! 

God bless you and keep you all! And God Bless the United States of America!!!!

His Truth is Marching On!
