Summary

We begin today by discussing how Republicans don’t even believe their own talking points, which is why they were unprepared for a general election that didn’t include Joe Biden. I offer broader context to this election by noting that standing for nothing didn’t help them in 2022; it harmed them throughout their tenure in control of the House; and it won’t help them now. They need to run on a bold agenda, and that begins with a budget fight in September. Next, we’re joined by Dorothy Moon, chair of the Idaho GOP, who warns that RINOs are working with Democrats to subvert the grassroots control of the party. This is a threat in every red state. They plan to use the initiative petition process to make “ranked-choice voting” the law of the land. This will confuse voters and enable more liberals to slip through. She believes that in Idaho the grassroots are in a good position to beat back this effort. We also discuss the potential of switching primaries to either conventions or caucuses. As the Left seeks to abolish our primaries, we need to make them even tighter through a representative process controlled by the grassroots. There is a reason why our founders hated “direct” democracy. It leads to oligarchy. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
