We Must Not Ignore Down-Ballot Primaries | 1/24/24

All conservative media cares about is Trump and the general election. But we have 9.5 months left to this election, and now is the time to focus on the primaries. Yes, Trump is the presumptive GOP presidential nominee, but the primary is still going on. What is a primary? It means focusing on our own people. We can still influence Trump and move him to the right on the issues. We can still prevent Trump from elevating liberals like Tim Scott and Doug Burgum to positions of prominence. We can still focus on red-state legislative sessions. And yes, we must focus on electing conservatives in the upcoming state and congressional primaries. The problem is that the entire establishment is endorsing Trump, thereby ensuring that Trump often endorses establishment candidates in their down-ballot races against Trump’s own MAGA supporters. It is indefensible for Trump influencers not to focus on these issues, personnel, and races. The fact that they don’t demonstrates that either they are not using their influence with Trump or they lack the influence they claim to wield.
