I have dedicated my entire professional life to the conservative movement. Today was a very sad day to be a Republican. It brings me no joy to admit this.
When I worked for the RNC, those of us on the field staff could recite George W. Bush's campaign speeches, not bc we read them, but because they were stump speeches.

Among the candidates Ted Cruz stumped for on his bus/2024 tour:
John Gibbs
Yesli Vega
Scotty Moore
Bo Hines
Amanda Adkins
Cassy Garcia
Yvette Herrell
Mayra Flores
All of them lost.

When people are paying you $400k a month, which is more money than they have ever made before by far, they didn't wonder: Gee, who has that kind of money, and why are they spending it on me?
