    Dan McLaughlin Retweeted stuart stevens

    One of the silver linings of the Trump era has been revealing how many Republican political consultants never understood or believed in any of the things they were selling. Which explains much of their failure.https://twitter.com/stuartpstevens/status/1371157049715855362 …

    While standing in line to get vaccinated, I was thinking about the 8 million ads I’d made about how government involvement in medicine was socialized hell. Maybe, just maybe, it was all a lie.

        They failed because what they were selling wasn't popular.

        Except Stuart Stevens is wrong about this particular too. The vaccines were developed by the private part of the healthcare industry. And distribution was botched for months wherever is was mostly run by public bureaucracies. Healthcare would be better if it were more private.

        You know, Dan, one of the things that's amazing is that, in the absence of REAL GOP leadership over the past 30 years, God really is raising up a new generation of leaders that'll actually do (or try to do) the job. It really isn't about Donald Trump. It IS about *meaning it.*

        Case in point, Dan @baseballcrank. WHY the GOP and conservatives did a (his words) "piss poor" job of communicating conservatism to minorities over the past 30 years....it's beyond comprehension, but they did. So,...here's the new generation of leaders: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tnj6fMXb7yg …

        Pluralize “Republican” and delete the words “political consultants” and you’d have your truest post of all time.

        In 20 years, maybe 2, everyone is going to want to say they opposed the pre-Trump and anti-Trump GOP political grifters.

        Or, here me out, the GOP has tons of absurd ideas and Stevens is calling it out...

        ...well, it also explains how the message is a lie.
