The Supreme Court Resets The Game For Trump's Vice-President

BY TYLER DURDEN

Authored by Tom Luongo via Gold, Goats, 'n Guns blog,

Now that the Supreme Court has unanimously destroyed the dreams of Davos to use January 6th as a means to keep him off the ballot, Donald Trump has passed the easiest of the hurdles in front of his returning to the White House.

Some things, politically, in the US still function.

This ruling was a lay-up.

The SCOTUS had to rule decisively here.

Trump was never convicted of ‘insurrection.’ He was impeached and character-assassinated, sure, but none of that carries any weight of law. But, even if you somehow believe he was guilty of the crimes the Democrats accused him of, the facts of January 6th are so murky from that perspective, there was no way the SCOTUS could concoct a justification for his ballot disqualification.

At stake itself was the SCOTUS’ own validity as an institution. And if there is one thing I believe about organizations it is they always move to defend themselves if their leadership is honest.

Like it or not, the SCOTUS does not exist to enforce anyone’s opinion on reality. They exist to conclude whether an action is or is not constitutional.

Did Trump ever lead an armed insurrection against the government? No.

Did he question a questionable election? Yes.

Is that unconstitutional? No.

Case closed.



But this case was an important first step to shut off the Nikki Haley insurgent strategy of handing delegates to her by default:

Take Trump off the ballot.

She’s now the only “Repuglican” left to vote for.

She gets to go to the convention with a bunch of unearned delegates to steal the election before November.

Oops. Now she gets further embarrassed on Super Tuesday.

Now the strategy backfires completely and he’s now Obi-Don Kenobi.

Unless somehow Jack Smith or the Fulton County Gang that Can’t Lie Straight put him in jail Trump is the GOP nominee.

So, now, how does Trump take this political resurrection and change the game completely?

With Biden’s disapproval rating reaching historic lows of 59% (6 out of 10 US votes HATE JOAH! Biii-Den!), the path to the White House for Trump goes through Vice-President Kamala Harris.

While conversations abound about subbing in Big Mike and/or Gavin Gruesome, the more likely threat from the DNC is Hillary, who is clearly angling back into the conversation as Biden falters.

But whoever Trump winds up running against, there is one person who Trump can leverage to drive even more people who hate him bat-**** crazy than he does.

And he knows who that is. So, as Primary Trump morphs, just like in 2016, into Candidate Trump, he will look to shore up his weaknesses.

Candidate Trump became a guy who preached bringing the US back from a dark place.

He ran on a populist platform that incorporated the Bernie Bros (remember them) as well as the tradesmen.

He broke the Democrats’ Trinity of Victimhood – Unions, Minorities, young people — that was their base and squeaked to victory over The Hildabeast.

If you think it’s Trump’s team or even US ‘white hats’ pushing out this stuff about Biden, you may be missing the obvious player, Hillary.

If there is one thing I know for certain about Trump it is that he’s a master of media. He knows exactly how and when to push everyone’s buttons.

For that reason (and many others) Trump’s only real choice for running mate is Tulsi Gabbard.



At a minimum, right now, Trump is using Gabbard, bringing her into the VP conversation. She’s okay with this. She’s allowing herself to be used by him. It’s mutually beneficial.

I’m well on the record as being a Gabbard fan (some would say simp… whatever). It doesn’t matter whether you trust her or not. It’s not about you. It’s about perception. And, for better or worse, Gabbard has a now long track record of service to the country that is honest.

She was someone targeted from the beginning as someone the DNC could groom into shape. Young, attractive, woman of color, veteran. Boxes are ticking off left and right. And those are all attributes that she still has which Trump doesn’t.

When Hillary stole the 2016 primary from Bernie Sanders she resigned from the DNC.

This is a woman who crossed Hillary Clinton and, so far, has lived to tell the tale. No mean feat in the 21st century.

Long story short, Gabbard has stones. Some would call them principles, but that’s a stretch to ascribe those to any politician. She told Davos to go scratch. She told Hillary to slag-off.

And in 2024, she’s an ex-Democrat ,on Fox News, headlining at CPAC etc. Is she a stalking horse for the establishment? I don’t think so. Is she a grifter who just wants to trade up from the collection of dead-enders that are the current Democrats? Maybe.

Again, I don’t care about these things, because here’s the real story.

Trump needs to run as a real Unity candidate. He’s destroyed the GOPe’s (GOP establishment) gaggle of neocons. Now, he needs to seal the deal with the emerging Radical Center I discussed in a recent article.

That {being for something better rather than against what is} becomes a decision point for a lot of people. It’s the moment when the established idea, brand, etc. wakes up to the threat and fights back. This is what the 16% chasm represents, that gulf between opposition and affirmation.

This is also what Davos and their ilk are truly exceptional at managing. They keep the Overton Window framed over irrelevant side issues to ensure that a new majority doesn’t “cross the 16% chasm,” by uniting over that better solution that doesn’t include them.

I’m calling this group they are afraid of, “The Radical Center.”

And every time I bring Gabbard up in the VP conversation I hear a whole lot of side issues discussed without actually addressing the core goals of how to save the country from collapsing into conflict.

So, allow me to make one of my lists of reasons why Trump has only one real choice for VP:

• Former Democrat Congresswoman, veteran, former Trump critic.
  
• Loudly rejected the Democrats for becoming something unrecognizable
  
• Stood up to Hillary Clinton
  
• She destroyed Kamala Harris in a DNC debate
  
• Is fundamentally populist in most of her positions
  
• Is NOT dogmatic about key issues, having shifted off previous positions on guns, abortion, etc.
  
• Is not a warhawk, but rather supports Trump’s views on foreign policy
  
• She’s a negotiator and a moderate.
  
• She’s a patriot with a strong sense of honor and duty.
  
• Ran a pure grassroots campaign for President in 2020, no outside donor support.

If you look at the totality of Gabbard’s record you see someone who is the opposite of Trump, but who winds up in the same place he did.

Politically, she is someone who neuters all of the Democrats’ screeching about Trump hating women, being a Nahtsi, and dog whistling for the alt-Right.

If he picks Gabbard as his running mate he neuters all of those narratives with normies, softens Trump’s bombast, while leaving the media and Davos with nothing but “he’s pandering” as their fall back position.

That will backfire on them hard and they will take the bait, hook, line, and sinker.

And, like her or not, Gabbard is no Sarah Palin for them to pick apart. She’s seasoned at this level of the game.

Lastly, she is Globalist/Neocon Insurance as Trump is more compromised on this front than she is. And when you run through the Senate right now, who can you point to that doesn’t have huge stalking-horse-for-globalist vibes? Rubio? Scott? Rick or Tim?

Go through the Senate of possible people to succeed Trump and give me a good name you can trust to survive even the transition period between November and January.

If you could then some of them would have already tried for the job during the primaries. None of them wanted the Ron DeSantis treatment.

Of all the options for Trump only Gabbard is the person who can reach out to voters that matter, the ones in swing states/counties who are looking for our politics to focus on country first and ideology second.

The fundamental problem with all of this is that Trump is not a hard-ass. He’s a deal-maker. Gabbard is a consensus-builder. We need a hard-ass. You go to war with the Generals you have and the army you’ve built, not the ones you want.

Trump isn’t the General for this war I want, he’s the one I’ve got. And if my alternative is Harris, Gruesome, or Hitlary, then I want Trump to have the best possible VP for the job. I don’t want Mike Pence 2.0, which is how I see any of the mannequins in the Senate.

Will Trump do this? I have no idea. Should he do it? I honestly don’t think he has a real choice.

.

The Tulsi Gabbard interview with Tucker (see post 243 above)......is very good and she would make a brilliant VP and also a future President maybe...

Her condemnation of the Democrat Party and self serving professional politicians like Mitt Romney (to mention one) is damning -

She uses the words.... 'woke warmongering elite' and politicians bending to their will....<-(my words) and how true that is, not just in America but across the Western World..... even the Conservative Party in the UK have become puppets for the 'woke, warmongering, elite' - the other big party, Labour, got there first but now...as in most other western nations - the woke, warmongering elite - call the tune for all main Parties - - I suppose the warmongering elite historically called the tune but now they have gone 'woke' it's a whole new ball game - well to be more accurate they are trying to force 'wokeness' on the 'peasants'...................... to save the world, of course <- /sarcasm..... :/

Tulsi Gabbard brings up the US DoD funded biolabs in Ukraine with Tucker.

She speaks about the backlash she received from Mitt Romney and the MSM for the factual statements about US biological activity in Ukraine.

These two were arguably the most vocal public figures about the biolabs in Ukraine, and helped shift public perception on what the MSM claimed was a “conspiracy theory”.

A bit of a primer on people like her.

Take one world wide event that you know cannot possibly have happened the way that person and the media describes it as having occurred.

Understand the undeniable truths that the many recorded videos of those involved in those incidents are direct personal recollections, unadulterated by any outside sources. Read the written testimony of many of those involved. Know the history of those world changing events and know the detailed operational methods and the agents involved in them. Know that the gate keepers are all politicians, deceitful at their core, and listen to their words with the scrutiny those words deserve.

Anyone, specifically that soldier, who claims that it was the Taliban and not Al Queda who committed the War Crimes of the 911/Iraq/Afghanistan Corporate War is not just a liar, that treasonous liar is a complicit sell out, driven by a shallow moral puddle of any remaining hint of a soul. It was neither of those groups, because they are never allowed any profit above their pay grade, unlike the Qatari based millionaires of Hamas who, not so coincidentally, steal the highest percentage of western and zionist funds meant to protect their own people, quite like the Ukrainian oligarchs do, like the western war profiteers do.

For all of those military relatives I have and have had I find her b.s. excuses a deep insult to their service, their honest service, their politically neutral sacrifices....all based on honesty, not politics.

Does that person expect anyone to believe that it was a ragtag group of saudis who also spent months in all 3 buildings prepping the explosives, ran command on those airborne DEW platforms, and orchestrated it all from a building in full view of the 3 towers?

Was it the so-called terrorists who inspired the man who leased the buildings to, so close to the operation, take out insurance policies for profit in billions of dollars, on the off chance that those same buildings were destroyed? Let's get some prolonged foreskin and labial stretches for that one. It'd be more reasonable than stretching the observable truths in that FF. If that's the case, then did Larry share any of the dark profits with the relatives of the imaginary hijackers?

Does that person also expect even a dog to be convinced that those same u.s./brit/ isr. intel operatives were working under the guidance of those same ghostly whores who failed even flying a Cessna down in Florida?

The value of a true warrior is the prevention of war, not the self righteous resignation to the partisan politics that condone the killing of the innocent civilians who are most often the full majority of the victims of war. When a soldier does not acknowledge the influence of those who provoke division and secretly profit from the death of fellow humans, they are not soldiers at all.

Do take a little time and observe the many tells her body shows in those videos where she does not believe a word she is saying. She leans to her right side when she's fibbing,..., etc., etc.. I don't think that any of her handlers believes she has the credibility or the charm to go further in the field of politics, but who really knows with all of the clowns that become reps for dark corporate puppeteers. Besides, handlers gotta earn a living. It's not up to them to believe anything their clients say, only how effective their clients are at delivering the lies.

I wish her well, but she's in the wrong profession. May she live a long, healthy life without thinking that all of those "I gotchas" cover up her conflicting amoral speeches. Do understand that most military service members have sacrificed and served to the best their situational awareness reveals to them, despite being led by sell outs in so many of their deployments.

[Hermoor]

^ Thank you for saying what you said Hym.

It was about time someone said it and you expressed yourself very well.

If a full list of compromised media actors was ever published, then we'd find plenty of them often featured around here.

I've piped up about Russell Brand and a couple of others briefly in the past as they seem particularly obvious and disgusting to me. I don't seek conflict on the matter, but more discernment and a general raising of standards would be welcome.

Sidenote: The light in this clip is great.

But she did not tell the viewers and listeners the real reason why the “demoniacs” will burn it all down. The reason is: they are treasonous criminals who know the jig is up, the party is over and the punchbowl is being pulled away. So, they are hell-bent on saving their pathetic asses from investigation, prosecution and punishment for their inhumanity.
