We need to do a hostile takeover of the GOP. There are 400,000 positions for precinct committeemen in the GOP party. 200,000 are open, nobody to fill them. Right now, the 200,000 that are currently filled are half and half, swamp creatures and the other half MAGA. If we take up those remaining positions, we will own the GOP.
Precinct committeemen call all the shots from who fills party positions to who the candidates are who run for office and has control over the voting machines.
If you hate the current GOP candidate, then change him out with someone else you like better.
This will never work. It's easier to rebuild than to take over due to the entrenched money and bureaucrats. It's also an opportunity to rebrand, and shed the bullshit associated with the GOP. Most people hear "republican" and instantly cringe because the party has been associated with religious zealots and big business for so long. We could keep many of the same policies and rebrand as populism (or nationalist capitalism) and gain a lot of support we wouldn't get otherwise. The third party thing doesn't apply when more than half the base splits; the new party very quickly subsumes the old.
It seems anyone 65+ is stuck on old gop stigma. I went over every major gop/Trump policy position vs Dem with my 90yo mom and 88yo aunt. They came down on Trump positions nearly unanimously but both voted for Biden because “we’re democrats”.
Only if we get rid of the rigged machines and have election Integrity or the Same thing is going to happen. Nothing we do will matter
