Part of what defines candidates is who endorses them. Musk, Kennedy, Gabbard, Ramaswamy, and Haley bring extraordinary credibility to their endorsement of Trump.
"We can’t know what’s going on in the state department, the defense department, and the intelligence department, so we have these fiduciaries that are supposed to represent our interests. I can easily imagine that we are engaged in some strategy that the insiders believe cannot be toppled lest it set the world on fire with a series of conflagrations the likes of which we’ve never seen. In such a circumstance, Washington has moved on from the electorate. They understand that the electorate is a problem, they’re not so thrilled about free speech, and they’re not so thrilled about people voting. We have a serious problem and we can’t put the whole system at risk every four years by candidates that might topple that order. Tulsi, RFK Jr., and Donald Trump are all people that are willing to topple that order.”
– Eric Weinstein, appearing on Piers Morgan Uncensored, 9/10/2024
It’s important to acknowledge what may have motivated former quasi-Republicans to endorse Kamala Harris in the current election, and as quoted above, Eric Weinstein, a brilliant physicist and investor, offers an explanation. There may well be threats we don’t know about, against which it’s in our national interest to not “put at risk” every four years. We may speculate endlessly over what these threats might be, but it is reasonable to recognize the possibility.
Then again, it is equally likely, if not more likely, that the defection of people like Dick Cheney and Mitt Romney has more to do with the future performance of their international investments than national security. Otherwise, absent some huge secret national security struggle of which we know nothing, RINO support for the Democrats is inexplicable.
Kamala Harris—now the preferred candidate of RINOs—is the product of a political machine. If you vote for her, you are voting for a continuation of what Weinstein has referred to as America’s “permanent geopolitical management group.” You are voting for a uniparty, deep state machine that has brought us deindustrialization, the collapse of stability in the Middle East and Eastern Europe, uncontrolled mass migration into Europe and the Anglosphere from failed nations, and “green” policies that have done nothing but harm to ordinary households while empowering monopolistic corporations and government bureaucracies. You are also voting for late-term abortions, LGBTQ indoctrination in K-12 public schools including transgender ideology, and increasingly repressive censorship.
If Donald Trump is elected, he will take office with the benefit of four previous years of experience as president, and as a result, he will be much more effective this time. He is indeed likely to “put the whole system at risk.” But what system? One that continues to engineer the decline of the economic and moral fabric of our nation? The destruction of our national identity? The fragmenting of whatever remains of our unity as a people? Apart from those Americans who only turn to sources such as ABC News for their information, or personally profit from the process while it destroys the rest of us, who can possibly support such an agenda?
Part of what defines candidates is who endorses them. Prominent figures backing Trump and ready to serve in his administration would have a much bigger influence on voters if it weren’t for their relentless demonization by the media. Each of these people brings extraordinary credibility to their endorsement of Trump.
Let’s start with Elon Musk, and begin by dispensing with libertarian canards that he has taken advantage of government subsidies. So what? There isn’t an industrialist in American history who hasn’t taken advantage of government subsidies. The more pertinent concern should be, what did he do with the subsidies? Elon Musk has brought the cost of launching a payload into near-earth orbit down by more than an order of magnitude. He has single-handedly pushed the American commercialization of space ahead of where it would have been by at least a decade. Musk is a giant, who will be remembered as a peer to America’s greatest industrialists, and he has only begun to make his mark.
Critics of Musk should consider how Democratic Party contributors use their subsidies because it is a criminal waste of taxpayer money. In California, a Homeless Industrial Complex of subsidized developers is spending up to $1.0 million per unit to build housing for the homeless, all the while making donations to Democratic legislators who keep pushing additional billions into their pockets. Save your principled ire for subsidized enterprises that waste money, not businesses that drive technology forward ten times faster than government programs ever could.
How Musk treated his Twitter acquisition ought to provide more than enough insight into his true management skills. He gutted the workforce, letting nearly 80 percent of the employees go, and the site works better than ever. If Trump gets elected and Musk is put in charge of a Government Efficiency Commission, it will be one of the best things that ever happened to our country.
What about Robert Kennedy Jr., a former Democrat? Like Musk, he can be eccentric. But that shouldn’t diminish the credibility of his passions. The speech he delivered on August 23 to endorse Trump ought to be required viewing for every American voter. He described in detail the nature of American intervention abroad, including Ukraine. You don’t have to be an isolationist to appreciate that maybe there are some geopolitical hotspots that we didn’t have to aggravate, and that maybe sometimes we’ve done more harm than good with our interventions.
But Kennedy’s comments about the safety of our food and the general health of our population were equally compelling, as were his criticisms of the pharmaceutical industry in general and the excessive use of vaccines in particular. Putting RFK Jr. in charge of America’s FDA would constitute a very healthy disruption of America’s healthcare cartels, as well as America’s food processing cartels.
Another prominent Democrat who has defected to Trump is Tulsi Gabbard. The former congresswoman from Hawaii became a national celebrity in 2020 when she eviscerated Kamala Harris in a Democratic primary debate. Since then, just like RFK Jr., she became increasingly disillusioned with the Democratic Party. In October 2022, she finally had enough. Here’s an excerpt from her speech where she announced that after 20 years, she was leaving the Party:
“I can no longer remain in today’s Democratic Party that is now under the complete control of an elitist cabal of warmongers driven by cowardly wokeness, who divide us by racializing every issue and stoke anti-white racism, actively work to undermine our God-given freedoms enshrined in our Constitution, are hostile to people of faith and spirituality, demonize the police and protect criminals at the expense of law-abiding Americans, believe in open borders, weaponize the national security state to go after political opponents, and above all, are dragging us ever closer to nuclear war.”
Gabbard, who is actively campaigning for Trump, is a good person to compare to Kamala Harris. Consider their respective performances in front of the media or live audiences. Harris reads from a teleprompter and, when unscripted, usually resorts to rehearsed sound bites that don’t answer the specific question or even address the topic. Despite having a blatantly supportive media, she avoids interviews and doesn’t give press conferences. Gabbard, by contrast, speaks with extraordinary clarity and authenticity and has no hesitancy to engage with an often hostile media.
Two more prominent supporters of Donald Trump are Vivek Ramaswamy and Nikki Haley. Both of them happen to be descendants of immigrants from India, something only worth mentioning since Kamala Harris has catalyzed her political career by loudly identifying as a “person of color,” partially due to her mother immigrating from India. More to the point, these individuals are both articulate advocates for Trump at a level that renders Harris’s unscripted performances an embarrassment by comparison.
Ramaswamy’s successful career in business and Haley’s accomplished career in politics qualify them for positions in a Trump administration. Critics of either of these individuals by MAGA hardliners miss the tremendous opportunity they offer the campaign and deny the courage it took for both of them to defy the blob, the permanent geopolitical management group, and throw their wholehearted support behind Donald Trump. As Ramaswamy stumps across the nation for Trump and Haley helps him with fundraising and publicly endorses him, supporters should be thankful they’re willing to join the movement.
Musk, Kennedy, Gabbard, Ramaswamy, and Haley, collectively, represent a cross-section of America’s elites that have realized our federal bureaucracy and the politicians they control have betrayed its own people. Coming from diverse backgrounds and speaking for diverse constituencies, they have united to elect the disrupter candidate. In opposition to a uniparty that has co-opted characters across a spectrum of sleaze that ranges from Adam Schiff to Dick Cheney, their support and the message it sends to American voters might just make the difference this November.
