Dear GOP, I’m writing this as someone who’s new to the conservative movement. I didn’t grow up in the “politics world.” I’m not a big donor, not an insider. I ’m just a regular voter. And honestly, I’m really confused. Because from the outside, it looks like you’re sitting on the easiest wins in modern politics and refusing to do them. Why aren’t you forcing daily votes on clean, single-issue bills that the public overwhelmingly supports? I’m talking about simple bills that are so popular they’re basically political layups, things that poll super high, things normal people agree. Like… defunding fraud? Or mandatory voter ID? Or how about defunding the freaking Taliban? If Democrats oppose them and vote no? Fine. You got their vote on the record. You get the receipt. You get the clear contrast that voters can understand in 2 seconds: “We tried. They stopped it.” If Democrats vote yes? Great. Then you passed something good. You improved the country. You proved you can govern. You get credit for results. Either way, it’s a win. Either way, you build momentum. Either way, you dominate the narrative heading into the midterms. So help me understand… why are you doing the EXACT opposite? Why are you still funding the fraud? Why are you still funding the Taliban? Why are you passing bills everyone hates? Why are you passing bills that YOUR OWN BASE hates? Why are you betraying the same people who voted you in with a mandate? What is the purpose of this? But because I’m new, and I’m trying to be nice and to assume there’s a strategic reason. But it doesn’t look strategic at all... honestly, it smells like corruption. It looks like you’re leaving EASY wins on the table and like you’re refusing to put Democrats in the bind they keep putting YOU in. And I’ll be honest: it’s insanely discouraging. You tell people like me to show up, speak up, vote, donate, volunteer, bring friends along… and I have been!!! But help us out here. If you want new conservatives like me to actually be excited for the future, please stop acting like you’re permanently in opposition. Use the power you have. Force the votes. Make the contrast obvious. Make the other side explain themselves. And if you can’t do that, I don’t know what we are doing here. Sincerely, A brand new conservative

I hope this makes your day as much as it made mine, Enjoy 😘
