What we're up against: "Big money even in little districts"

Katherine McCoun comments at The Conservative Treehouse,
President Trump as the GOP presidential nominee was the Tea Party & conservative voter grassroots protest and political war action against the establishment. We are just keeping it within the system, within the Constitution, lawful political war.

Congress is decentralized and harder to act upon — but shouldn’t it be the opposite? Every district and state in which President Trump won the GOP nomination ought to be able to elect MAGA Congress. However, President Trump did it, in part, by “punching” through the media narrative.

It is actually harder for local candidates to do that and to get their message to the voters, esp. over and above the slick advertising campaigns that the establishment candidates fund with mailers, attack ads, fake robocalls in their opponents name that turn people off of their opponent, TV, newspaper, radio & internet ads, etc. Big money even in little districts even for state house reps and state senate much less Congress.

Hard to bust through the $ to get to the voters but President Trump did and that is a big part of why he was able to win.

Where do we (Independents, Tea Party, grassroots conservative base, MAGA Republicans, Trump Republicans) go from here? How do we elect a MAGA congress and fight the GOPe?

We MUST have a plan going forward – would be great to accomplish this while we have a MAGA POTUS but we Must have a plan for 2024 or we have just delayed the inevitable and we see our future as we watch the news of France today and of the betrayal of Brexit.
