The struggle for the GOP’s soul
By Renee Parsons
One result of the 2022 midterm election is that the civil war within Republican Party between its RINO (Republican in Name Only) faction and its more traditional conservative elements has gone public – and that is a good thing. That contentious conflict has been on the political precipice as the RINOs maintained a firm hold on the party’s candidates, its issues and principles, leading to formation of the House Freedom Caucus in 2015. It is, however, the America First (AF) movement that can take credit for pushing those mostly subdued internal squabbles to the forefront since the Trump presidency in 2016.
It is to Kari Lake’s credit that she has dug in to expose the depth of electoral corruption. Since the midterms, those ideological inconsistencies have surfaced no more intensely than in the State of Arizona, where its electoral fraud is being legally challenged after a clumsy effort to sabotage AF candidates. Meanwhile, in the US House of Representatives the majority Republicans will appoint a new Speaker of the House on January 3rd.
It is questionable, however, given the 2020 and 2022 success of the unscrupulous Democrats to brazenly and visibly steal a massive number of Congressional elections with no real consequences, how exactly the Republican Party would prevent the Greatest Steal of All in 2024?
The AF movement and the RNC were foolishly gullible to have not anticipated the treachery and untrustworthiness of the Dems and paid little to no attention as Florida banned mass mail in ballots, ballot harvesting and required voter id – all basic fundamentals to a fair and equitable election.
The crisis accelerates in Arizona with a dramatic Monday morning Court hearing at 9:30 am to consider the lawsuit filed by Republican Attorney General candidate Abe Hamadeh (along with the Republican National Committee) to prevent Secretary of State certification by current SOS Katie Hobbs, who refused to recuse herself from an election where she was also a candidate. The Maricopa Board of Supervisors then quickly rescheduled their own Monday hearing to 8:30 am to certify the election of Katie Hobbs as the Governor of Arizona.
