Summary

Republicans ran on fighting for the forgotten American — but instead became the very elite power structure they claimed to oppose. In this episode, I break down why the GOP is losing elections on issues conservatives don’t even agree with: Big Tech favoritism, elite corruption, corporate subsidies and venture socialism, data centers destroying farmland and rural America, Cabinet members with ties to Epstein, and corrupt deals with China and Arab states that sell out our national security. While Republicans cling to power without principles, Democrats are outflanking them on affordability, corruption, and working-class messaging — and the data proves it. Special elections, polling, and voter trends show a consistent 15-point GOP underperformance, putting even red states at risk. Democrats are successfully running as the “anti-elite” party. The question isn’t whether Republicans are losing — it’s why they’re losing for nothing. If conservatives are going to lose, shouldn’t it at least be for their own values?

And welcome back fellow American Patriots and Minutemen standing at the ready to fight anew for the issues that matter on this fine Tuesday here at Blaze Media, your host Daniel Harwitz, back here to discuss the long view, the long view of where we are headed as conservatives.

0:20.4

You see, the same party and leader. the long view of where we are headed as conservatives.

0:32.4

You see, the same party and leader who ran on representing the forgotten man has now become the female dog for big tech, the big surveillance state, and frankly, nothing but a bunch of Epstein elites.

0:40.6

Yeah, the GOP is now the party of the Epstein elites, Big Tech,

0:46.1

albeit with this low IQ, illiterate white trash vibe,

0:52.2

so they turn off all sorts of voters. Could we actually die on our

0:58.1

own hills for once? I mean, that's the question here. Could we, if we're going to get crushed in an

1:04.8

election, which Republicans have now lost every special election imaginable by massive margins.

1:11.0

Could we actually die on our own hills?

1:13.8

But you know what?

1:14.6

If we would actually die on our own hills, perhaps we wouldn't die.

1:18.5

If we would have a consistent message for free and fair markets,

1:22.7

for reducing spending, for reducing inflation, articulating it,

1:26.7

putting the American worker first,

1:29.2

then perhaps you wouldn't get crushed. But even if you did, you would accomplish something

1:34.2

for that purpose. And moreover, you would at least be able to preserve red states. Now we're

1:40.9

losing red states even in a general election. And even if the Republicans that wind up winning, because we've abolished primaries thanks to Trump, we get garbage Republicans.

1:52.3

Conservatives are being forced to lose because conservatives within the body of the GOP is sort of like dying in battle while being conscripted in the army of Mustafa, Pasha's Ottoman army while attacking Vienna.

2:10.4

Like, could we actually die for Iwo Jima, die for the American army?

2:16.0

But instead, we're losing on issues we don't even believe in.

2:22.8

And for a vibe and an image that is now being presented to voters that is antithetical

to the image that voters would see if you and I were in charge,
