Republican Candidates, and All GOP, Must Stand Together

So, President Trump is indicted time after time after time, each of them on bogus charges. The Jean Carroll lawsuit was from the Twilight Zone. She's an oddball to say the least. The jury found that Donald Trump did not rape her as she alleged, yet he was assessed monetary penalty.

The Bogus Hot Parade

The Stormy Daniels “hush money” suit being brought by the corrupt Alvin Bragg is as flimsy as a lawsuit can be. Last year, even the Merrick Garland DOJ declined to pursue the case, and that is saying something.     

The J6 allegations brought by Jack Smith and the DOJ have no legal basis whatsoever. As Liberal attorney Alan Dershowitz has said, there simply is no “smoking gun.” In this nation, one can voice displeasure with the integrity of an election, as top Democrats have done more than 200 times regarding the 2016 election.

 The Georgia prosecutor seeking to indict Trump because he questioned the results of the election has no grounds. Trump made a phone call to the Secretary of State, Brad Raffensperger, essentially saying that, in the entire state of Georgia, there must be at least 11,000 votes that were either incorrectly counted, fraudulent, or otherwise insufficient to be part of the final vote tally. 

Impeached for What?

We now know that the two Trump impeachments were bogus. The first, over a phone call that he made to Ukraine about irregularities in the activities of the Bidens, was justified then and more so now based on what we know about the Bidens.

The second impeachment over Trump's alleged participation in the Capitol riot had no grounds. Trump was not at the Capitol, did not direct anyone to riot, did not orchestrate it, was surprised to learn what had happened, and was whisked away by the Secret Service.

REPUBLICANS

All of the above is known by those on the Right who have been following current events. What is stunning is to have someone like Ron DeSantis declare that the 2020 election was valid. Did he make the declaration strategically, believing it would somehow help his candidacy? 

Solidarity or Bust

Anyone Republican who runs for president must understand the importance of showing solidarity. The Democrats will demonize any Republican who seeks high office, particularly whoever wins the GOP nomination. Everyone who thinks they're immune is living in fantasyland.

It won't take long for those who stand in the way of Democrat candidates to feel the wrath of the media, the Justice Department, the FBI, the IRS, and the other countless shills on the Left. 

Vivek Ramaswamy understands that an attack against Trump, with these sham indictments and all that goes with them, is straight from the Democrat playbook. If Ramaswamy becomes the GOP nominee, the viciousness with which they will attack him will accelerate to the max. 

Under the Bus You Go

If you doubt how quickly and how devastatingly the Left will attack anyone who stands in the way of a 2024 Democratic victory, consider the fate of Professor Cornel West, who has declared he will run as an independent. The highly educated Mr. West has already been under attack by the IRS. Allegedly he owes a staggering sum in back taxes. This is unlikely. The accumulation of large sums over many years that go undetected by the IRS simply doesn't hold water.

If he runs as a third-party candidate, the Left-leaning Mr. West will drain votes from the Democrat candidate party. So, instantly he is an enemy of the Left, even if he is a lifelong Democrat. His reputation will be dragged through the mud. He will be subject to a variety of ordeals designed to slow him down and induce him to withdraw his third-party bid.

All Republican presidential candidates and all Republican politicians, now hear this: You must stand united in vigorously denouncing the sham indictments against President Trump. You can study history and not find anyone who has endured the level of injustice levied by top officials of our most sacred institutions. 

Get Wise or Get Out

If your national profile rises sufficiently, you must acknowledge that you will also be a target. Anything less than a solid front and vigorous denunciation of the sham Trump indictments is to be a turncoat.
