The Chess Game Continues

The only thing in Washington that is bi-partisan is the establishment. The main goal of the Washington establishment is to maintain the status quo–the Washington establishment gets rich and more powerful and Americans pay the price. The biggest threat to that establishment is President Donald Trump. Why? Because he has the resources to fight them, and no one owns him. He is also not afraid to call things what they are. The establishment needs to make sure that President Trump never has enough power in Washington to undo the status quo that makes the Washington establishment rich and powerful.

Two seemingly unrelated things happened on Thursday–the indictment of President Trump and the rescheduling of a committee vote in the Florida legislation.

On Friday, The Conservative Treehouse reported:

Timing is everything, and the timing here is simultaneously transparent and inappropriate.

Today the Florida Senate scheduled a change via committee vote of the “Resign to Run” law for next Tuesday, April 4, 2023 at 2:00pm. The intent of the change is almost certainly to permit Governor Ron DeSantis to formally announce his 2024 candidacy without having to resign his job as governor.

The indictment of President Trump will probably guarantee that he will be the GOP nominee for President, but it could make it difficult for him to be elected. That would be good news for the Washington establishment. However, if the indictment gives the nomination to Governor DeSantis (because of the Florida law change), that would also be good news for the Washington establishment. If a Democrat wins, the status-quo will be maintained. A close look at the people backing Ron DeSantis tells us that if Governor DeSantis wins the nomination (and the election), the status-quo will be maintained. It’s a win-win for the Democrats.

Remember, a win for the Washington establishment is a loss for America.
