On Sunday, The American Thinker<\/a> posted an article about the upcoming primary elections. The author of the article makes a very good point–until the Republicans take the primary elections more seriously, they will not be able to elect candidates who will fight the Washington swamp.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

What’s been even more disheartening than the Democrats’ destructive combination of viciousness and ineptitude has been that Republican congresspeople are supine.\u00a0\u00a0Most of them crumble when anyone says “racist” or “January 6.”\u00a0\u00a0Worse still are those Republicans who have chosen to ally with the Democrats regarding everything from January 6 to the radical LGBTQ+ agenda.\u00a0\u00a0The only way to change this is through the primaries.\u00a0\u00a0South Carolina is illustrative.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Too many Republicans began paying attention to South Carolina’s House of Representatives\u00a0race for the 1st District in October 2020, when it was Joe Cunningham, the Democrat incumbent, versus Nancy Mace, the Republican.\u00a0\u00a0Mace won, but what a disappointment she has been.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mace is barely even a RINO, so left are her positions.\u00a0\u00a0“I strongly support LGBTQ rights and equality,”\u00a0she stated<\/a>, and she means it.\u00a0\u00a0She\u00a0supports\u00a0Roe v. Wade<\/em><\/a>\u00a0and wants to\u00a0make marijuana legal<\/a>, which Colorado’s experiment\u00a0argues against<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0Mace is\u00a0a Liz Cheney\u2013supporter<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0Only reluctantly did she vote to remove Cheney as chair of the House Republican conference, but then only because Cheney was “divisive<\/a>.”\u00a0\u00a0And of course, Mace is\u00a0on board<\/a>\u00a0with the Democrats’ January 6 narrative.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Had more voters paid attention during the primaries, they might have averted Mace’s candidacy and put a real conservative in Congress.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The article concludes with an example of why primary elections are important:<\/p>\n

When it comes to her values, Centurion (\u00a0Ingrid Centurion<\/a>, who is challenging Mace to be the Republican candidate for South Carolina’s 1st District)\u00a0 is a true conservative.\u00a0\u00a0She stands for free speech and the Second Amendment.\u00a0\u00a0She opposes Critical Race Theory, COVID mandates, the extreme LGBTQ agenda, open borders, abortion, and the Democrats’ continued push to enshrine voter fraud.\u00a0\u00a0I liked her and will keep an eye on her as we go into the primaries.<\/strong><\/p>\n

My point, though, isn’t to endorse Centurion.\u00a0\u00a0It’s bigger than that: you must understand that, by November, it’s too late to get politically involved.\u00a0\u00a0If we’re to have a Congress that will stand up to Biden, investigate corruption, and reverse creeping socialism, we must have conservatives on the ballot, rather than whatever RINOs the GOP selects.\u00a0\u00a0The battle ends in November, but it begins with the primaries.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Until we elect people in the primary elections who will fight the Washington swamp, the Washington swamp will remain.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
