CPAC: Teen Level Communications

The 2021 CPAC was a teenager level communication project.
What the hell was that all about?

A golden icon in the hallway...
No real speeches of importance...
Repeats of past rantings...

As the most important convention of conservative political thought, this was a disaster.

So what did we learn?
The GOP has no plan and had given no indication of a plan forward.

OK. 'If that;s what they want, then I won't support then.
The nation deserves a plan, something to move forward with.
No plan. No votes.

the dems have plans, so they get my vote

Either coming in - completely blew off the organized Obama Transition Team who was waiting and ready, but no one from the Trump organization showed up. And the same with going out - no one met with anyone from the Biden Team, since they denied that any "transition" was going to take place... There was no "plan" to speak of, ever.

Since no one expected them to "win," they were only in it to make off with as much money from "campaign contributions" as possible. Destroying Democracy only came as a second priority.

1. Block Biden and the Dems at every turn.

2. Claim the Dems are useless and incompetent.

3. Use (2) to retake the Senate in 2022.

4. Repeat (1) & (2).

5. Retake the White House in 2024.

They are in "war" mentality. There are no ideas except to own the libs, obstruct, "take it back", white power, MAGA, etc.

Details? please... who need details when then believe (literally) that satan is walking the earth eating babies (QAnon) and the libs want to turn white people into slaves, and antiifa wants to kill all the cops?

Democrats have a plan, actually several plans, all of which will be misunderstood and misreported by our play ground media. Thus not one progressive action, no matter how insignificant or nonexistent, will hold up under the blind and deaf scrutiny and convoluted logic of conservative "rock stars" whose names remain only vaguely determined at this time since, currently, the "way the wind blows" remains unknown.

some actual work done to show us. Maybe the pandemic plan too. The one Kayleigh McCockamamie showed up in the Rose Garden with. She had that official looking binder. What was in it? How about Ivanka's opioid fight? What was in the works for fighting that epidemic?

All that stuff should be documented and available to Joe and his crew. Unless none of it ever existed.

Trump said for four years his 'health care plan' would be revealed in two weeks.

But just like 'mañana', the two weeks never came.
