What are they thinking?

Send us Fan Mail As a conservative, one of the more frustrating aspects of MAGA is their raw desire to celebrate "destroying" a lib by saying something harsh or brutal to them. Sure, on a human and visceral level, it may feel good to say something mean to someone or to "own" them. But that doesn't bring people in or invite them to understand what we're doing or why. I...

Send us Fan Mail One thing we can all agree on with Trump is that he frustrates everyone - even conservatives. Just not in the same way. As the head of the Republican Party, Trump represents all Republicans and conservatives - whether they like it or not. And many don't. Here's a few reasons why. Be kind. Have grace. Give the benefit of the doubt. Seek common ground. Don't be afraid...

Send us Fan Mail Job hunting can be soul-crushing, depressing, and stressful. Especially if you don't have a job or are walking a financial tightrope. If you're lucky to get interviews, but you keep missing the goal line, you're left wondering what you could have done differently. Recruiter feedback could help people improve their chances and get the job. But they just won't gi...

Be kind. Have grace. Give the benefit of the doubt. Seek common ground. Don't be afraid to ask questions. And never make assumptions about what people are thinking... or why.

Send us Fan Mail We all have politicians that we wonder how in the world they keep getting elected. Well, I think I have the solution. We need to institute my new "Choose your own election" plan.  It'll make all of this so much more exciting. Be kind. Have grace. Give the benefit of the doubt. Seek common ground. Don't be afraid to ask questions. And never make assumptions abou...

Send us Fan Mail Democrats have been calling Republicans "fascists" for as long as I've been paying attention to politics.  But what does fascism really mean? And how can you call people who believe in limited government fascists?  Be kind. Have grace. Give the benefit of the doubt. Seek common ground. Don't be afraid to ask questions. And never make assumptions about what peop...

Send us Fan Mail Conservatives are more informed because they have to be. Our entire culture is inundated with liberal ideas, doctrine, and thinking. And like everyone else, conservatives see it all the time. But what conservatives do that others don't is seek out the other side. They find other news sources that tell you what leftist media will not. So they know both sides. They have to be t...

Send us Fan Mail There are so many reasons why being a conservative is an act of frustration - from having no political party that represents you to just wanting to be left alone, free of those who want to control everything.  Here's a partial list of why being a conservative can be hard on your psyche. Be kind. Have grace. Give the benefit of the doubt. Seek common ground. Don't be afra...

Send us Fan Mail Republicans have never fought for or even articulated conservatism in any meaningful way. They're too soft and timid. Always have been. And that's the problem. We have Trump because he was the first person to fight for America. Or to come close to fighting for conservatism (usually by accident, but he still did a better job than Republicans). Be kind. Have grace. Give th...

Send us Fan Mail Taking a simple look at how our system has evolved from the simplicity of representing your community to getting rich off the citizens, perhaps people just can't have any form of government.  God warned us about our need for kings. But sometimes, we just need to learn the hard way. Be kind. Have grace. Give the benefit of the doubt. Seek common ground. Don't be afraid to...

Send us Fan Mail There's already a third party in America, and it's united by the citizen's disgust for our corrupt politicians.  Trump is doing a good job of bringing that to a head, but he's temporary, and he has no political philosophy. Meanwhile, there are more people, united by this disgust, who live like conservatives, whether they know it or not. The time is now to defin...

Send us Fan Mail There are plenty of shows that argue the conservative position on any given bill or policy. They interview other Republicans or conservatives to argue against what some leftist said. They point out why we're right and they're wrong. But no one in the conservative movement - except for maybe Prager U - comes close to just explaining who conservatives are and why they thin...

Send us Fan Mail Sarah Huckabee Sanders almost stumbled upon it in a speech she gave a year or two ago: "Normal or crazy." But Republicans need to go on offense and start branding the Democrats. The obvious solution is to give people a choice when considering Democrat policy initiatives: Are they sinister or stupid? Be kind. Have grace. Give the benefit of the doubt. Seek common ground....

Send us Fan Mail Following my podcast on the Trump phenomenon, I focus on potentially the most frustrating aspect of Trump for conservatives - his support for Republicans conservatives know to be RINOs while he works to destroy real conservatives. For example, if Trump was inevitable in 2024, why did he work to destroy DeSantis? Why didn't he just beat him and move on? Whatever the case, this...

Send us Fan Mail People have been trying to understand the Trump dynamic for some time, and I still don't think anyone has gotten it completely right. So here you go. This is THE definitive explanation of the Trump phenomenon. Much longer than usual - or intended - but necessarily so to be complete and thorough in presentation. Hopefully, it will help unify everyone around the goal of doing o...

Send us Fan Mail RINO - Republican in Name Only - used to mean Republicans who voted with the left. But I'm not sure it means what people think it does anymore. Be kind. Have grace. Give the benefit of the doubt. Seek common ground. Don't be afraid to ask questions. And never make assumptions about what people are thinking... or why.

Send us Fan Mail There's been a lot of "in your face" celebrating on X. It's not just MAGA who's happy Trump won. They're making a point of sticking it to the left. Understandable. The left has been metaphorically, and sometimes literally, punching conservatives and MAGA in the face for years. So a little payback is not surprising. But let's not become what we ju...

Send us Fan Mail What if there were no "get out of the vote" drives? What if we just left it to those who knew there was an election coming up to vote? Because if you don't know there's an election, you probably shouldn't be voting anyway. Be kind. Have grace. Give the benefit of the doubt. Seek common ground. Don't be afraid to ask questions. And never make assumptio...

Send us Fan Mail There's such a simple way to illustrate the unfairness of illegal immigration, and of course, the Republican Party (with the worst marketing department in the history of marketing departments) can't figure it out. Well, here it is. This one's a freebie. On me. Be kind. Have grace. Give the benefit of the doubt. Seek common ground. Don't be afraid to ask questio...

Send us Fan Mail Barking dogs... everyone's heard 'em. Everyone's probably lived near one. And you can't blame the dog. Barking is what they do. I think most conservatives would blame the owner. And the owner should be doing something about it. In most of Iceland, it's legal to shoot your neighbor's dog if it's barking. Is that the right thing?  Be kind. Have gra...

Send us Fan Mail The Republican Party has the worst marketing department in the history of marketing departments. But ironically, they are trying to sell the best product in the history of products: Freedom. How can this be? Be kind. Have grace. Give the benefit of the doubt. Seek common ground.

Send us Fan Mail If we don't all realize fast that it's the corruption of the government... the whole government... Democrats and Republicans alike, we're done. We're on an unsustainable trajectory, and we need to start taking back our country from all of the corruption. However seizes the message first... and means it, can and should win. Here's what this conservative is...

Send us Fan Mail No matter where you are, if you get caught behind a Suburu driver, get ready to go 10mph under the speed limit.  But at least you'll get to read their 30 liberal bumper stickers. Why is this? Be kind. Have grace. Give the benefit of the doubt. Seek common ground. Don't be afraid to ask questions. And never make assumptions about what people are thinking... or why.

Send us Fan Mail For the last few years, the Democrat Party has brazenly been sticking it to Americans - punching them in the metaphorical face, standing over them, and defiantly asking, "What're you gonna do about it?" And, as usual, the Republican answer has been a sheepish and meek... nothing. So... what are we gonna do about it? Be kind. Have grace. Give the benefit of the doubt...
