Now that former President Trump is the Republican nominee for President in 2024, it’s time for Republicans, including those who doubt him or even can’t stand him, to get behind him. The times demand it.

We are living amidst a Cold Civil War. This is a war not over the size of government or taxes, but over the American way of life. Winning this war requires fundamental understandings. For starters, you must understand that you are, in fact, in a war.

The first duty of a national government is to protect its citizens from foreign threats, yet a nation without borders that invites foreign threats is not a nation at all. You don’t need a doctorate in political science to understand this.

The GOP must understand we're in a war. War is not a time for too much civility, compromise, or for imputing good motives to the enemy. Our generals must fight as if the choice were between liberty & death. This is no time for sunshine patriots.

Remember: Trump revealed—not caused—the divide in our country. He shifted the overton window & gave his supporters breathing room to voice their discontents. This was one of his most important achievements, made possible by qualities independent of policy.

Although the elites favor group quotas, most Americans do not. This is where populism comes in so handy. It is at times such as these, when the elite no longer represents the common citizens, that direct access to the people is a necessary recourse.

For America, a just society is one where free individuals pursue happiness. For the woke regime, a just society is one where the regime imposes group quotas. These two understandings of a just society are irreconcilable.
