National political reporter Neil W. McCabe said the tone of this year’s Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) is “completely Trump,” noting how the “Trump-hating corporate conservative establishment” is not present this time around.
“It’s completely Trump,” McCabe explained on Friday’s edition of The Tennessee Star Report with Michael Patrick Leahy. “In the past you would kind of have sort of the Trump-hating corporate conservative establishment, but they’re not here.”
McCabe went on to detail Trump’s ascendancy in a “political era that should have been dominated by Democrats at the presidential level.”
“The Nixon-Reagan paradigm ended with Obama in 2008. And what you have when a paradigm shift, you have diehards who can’t accept it because the Republicans dominated presidential politics from ‘68 to ‘08,” McCabe said. “DeSantis, Haley, Mitt Romney, you know, Paul D. RINO, the rest of them, right? They think Reagan’s walking through that door and he ain’t.”
“Trump is flourishing in a political era that should have been dominated by Democrats at the presidential level because Obama is the one who rebooted everything,” McCabe added. “Remember in 2008, you had Iraq going off the rails, and then you had the simultaneous destruction of the housing, banking, and auto industry, and the voters said, “This system doesn’t work anymore,” just like they said in ‘68 at the end of the FDR, JFK paradigm.”
McCabe continued by explaining that Trump is resented by Republicans who “want to go back to the old days,” however, noted how voters do not care to go back to the old conservatism that was “no longer delivering the mail.”
“These Republicans resent that Trump is flourishing and they want to go back to the old days,” McCabe explained. “But, you know, nobody cares. After Obama, nobody wants to hear about your shining city on a hill. Because I just lost my house. Because my factory is closed. Because there’s 10,000 illegal alien kids in my school system. That conservatism was no longer delivering the mail.”
“They did nothing to fix abortion. Look at what Trump did. Trump had brought action, right? For 50 years we were told that the Republican Party was trying to protect the unborn. Trump did it in four years. Job done. There you go. It’s back in the states…The Republican party was not delivering for conservatives, and that was good, and that was fine. The Republican leadership had no problem with that. But Trump basically said it is possible to deliver and he basically tipped over the game,” McCabe added.

The author is discredited by including DeSantis on his list of “RINO’s” > ““DeSantis, Haley, Mitt Romney, you know, Paul D. RINO, the rest of them, right? They think Reagan’s walking through that door and he ain’t.”
Saying DeSantis is like Romney and Haley makes no sense to me or anyone paying attention.
This is yet another tell that the democrats actually cheated and stole the 2020 presidential election. America knew that Trump was a vastly better candidate than that old senile fool who was placed in the white house. The democrats knew Trump would win in 2020 if they didn’t continue their cheating. So you have to ask, what is the democrats end game? At this point they know Biden has a snowballs change in hell of beating Trump. I highly doubt they are going to just let President Trump get reelected.
