Some of y'all wouldn't be happy unless we had clones of Marjorie Taylor-Green as all of our representatives.

If you want to criticize our representatives for not actually being fiscally conservative or having bad views on foreign policy, then that is fair. I just don't think you can flip out on our reps for not following Trump off a cliff.

She is way out there, I’d settle for Massie, Ron/Rand Paul, Trey Gowdy... hear good things about Amash but haven’t really looked into him.

Trey Gowdy is a sellout actor


Liz Cheney hates Massey. Which means I love Massey.

Arkansas is 2nd most conservative state in the US now and is Trump country. He didn't support Trump now he is gone.
He had higher aspirations but can't go any higher because the Democrats will point to his previous adamant support for Trump which will hurt him.

He obviously doesn't understand politics which means he is dead in the water.

Both of those statements are true.

Other than immigration though, is Trump really that conservative? Is Trump really the person that conservative Arkansans want to hitch their wagon too?

I think things just became so much of an us vs them that Trump became "our guy" for the Republicans. Giving Trump the boot at this point seems like it is giving Democrats a win, so many Republicans have doubled down on Trump when cutting bait and finding a better leader for the party would be much more wise.

No. He is a New York republican, which would be an Arkansas Democrat.

Trump is a classic liberal and not from the lunatic fringe of the left.

Easy to say, but the reason so many R voters took to Trump was because he fights back. Republicans tend to lay down, roll over, and show their belly hoping that their Democrat counterparts will be nice to them.

Trump came out swinging back and that's what Republican voters have been begging for. A fighter. Republican voters are fed up with Rinos and are ready to clean house in the party or destroy it.

Guys like Cotton, Boozeman, and Hill leave nice soundbites, but they don't really fight back. Cotton has a few times, but that's because he has higher aspirations.

The Republican party is headed for a big change and honestly I think the Democrats are too. Not all Democrats are so hard left.

Three party system is really on the horizon and rinos, moderate dems, and libertarians will probably make up the largest party.

Back to the original point of the thread, by the time elections roll around, Arkansas voters will vote for the same old same old as they always do.

Trump is popular because he put America first and couldn't be bought or blackmailed. He changed how the Republican party should fight. He also brought peace to the Middle East and was the first president in years to not start a war during his time.

The Republicans didn't support Trump when he needed it the most on January 6th because they want to go back to the swampy days. But the problem is the cat is out of the bag and the MAGA movement is much bigger than Trump himself.

Trump is creating his own media company and he will use it to get rid of the rinos in the party and replace them with MAGA people. This scares the likes of CNN because it provides a voice for 75 million Trump voters and millions more for his supporters. The CCP media simply cannot stop him. They are trying to destroy him as a private citizen because he is such a great threat in the media. But they are failing.

Trump is changing the party and had they been full of MAGA then he would get his second term. But he has revenge on his mind.

The Democrats are changing and booting out anyone that questions them. They are becoming more radical and extreme in beliefs that dangerous to both America and the citizens of this nation. America last and foreign interests first.

I do believe a third party will be here in the future but just that isn't feasible right now as many GOP voters aren't ready to leave the party and it would split the vote. That would give the Democrats a guarantee victory each election. But a third party will emerge.

Exactly. Trump is/was basically JFK....in more ways than one. They were both assassinated (one physically and the other politically) by the swamp/deep state, because they wouldn't conform and wanted to end the military industrial complex and hated globalists.

And besides trade and guns, Trump's views are almost identical to Bill Clinton's from the 90s. Clinton was obviously a huge proponent of border security, just like all Democrats were up until about the mid 00s, which coincidentally enough, was the same time George Soros and his "open society" foundation began pumping money into US politics.

Arkansas will not vote willingly for another RINO/GOP like Boozman. If there is someone to primary him with just a little financial backing, then he could very well lose. He sowed his oats. He said he was retiring 4 years ago, but now he wants to stay longer because the swamp cash/foreign money laundering/kickbacks faucets just opened again, so now he wants to stay. What a POS.

He should be building servers and infrastructure to rival AWS. Then buy something like Vimeo and put it on his infrastructure, so it can’t be taken down, also turn it into the conservative/free speech YouTube.

But he was billed as someone who just got new tech, he doesn’t really. Although he is one of the few elderly politicians, you know uses their own phones.

Cliff or no, taking a giant piss on about 2/3 of your constituency is going to draw criticism. The only way it isn't fair is if you think it is more wrong to investigate the elections fraught with fraud and corruption, than it is to certify an election that you can be pretty damn certain is a complete sham.

The media company is all good and all, but the severs and web hosting hosting services are where he could really make billions and stick it to big tech. He should build up a server network and then buy a social media site and video platform (Vimoe like other poster said would be great, but they'd probably never sell to him).

The problem with so called "conservative" platforms is that they are too splintered. You cant have a true alternative to Twitter and YouTube, etc, by havimg 5 or 6 really small platforms with crappy interfaces.

Of all the Twitter-like platforms, Gab should be the one everyone gets behind since they have the best interface and own their own server network (albeit a small pretty fragile one) but still. Their video platform, though, is just bad.

Thats where Trump could come in and brand snd streamline everything together. He would also bring with him about 80 million people. His base will follow him wherever he goes. He could easily overpower any of the other sites and networks with his presence.
