Jim Renacci : insider

Following-up on Presidents’ Day, here's a post from Cleveland Tea Party’s Ralph King via FB, on Jim Renacci, who is apparently still looking forward to running again for office:

 

  

Happy Presidents' Day!

I am proud to have stood with @RealDonaldTrump from DAY ONE, a President who:

✅   Cuts regulations..

✅   Defeated ISIS.

✅   Rebuilt the military.

Ralph comments:

Again Jim "The Swamper" Renacci showing he can never tell the truth! I was involved with Trump campaign from the first days in Ohio! Slickster Jim was nowhere to be found!

Slickster Jim Renacci the Swamper didn't come out and support President Trump until after he pretty much had the nomination secured. If memory serves me correctly, it was a little bit before the RNC Convention. Far from "Day One" as he claims.

Jim even admits in his own words in an interview with Juan Williams he did not support President Trump from Day One....

“No, I actually stayed out of it,” Renacci, when asked by Fox News commentator Juan Williams if he had supported Kasich during the primaries, responded during a July 2016 interview at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland. “I really am a believer that we needed to see the party make this decision. I was a business guy for 28 years. I’ve only been in Congress five and a half years. I started to realize that the people are frustrated — I’m frustrated, they’re frustrated; let’s see who they decide to pick. And clearly they wanted an outsider.”

Remember Renacci’s early TV ads in his unsuccessful 2018 run for the US Senate?  He was wearing a hunting vest or jacket to portray himself as an “outsider.”

Cruz news

Lots of Tea Party people liked Ted Cruz’s filibuster to oppose Obamacare. Remember when he read Dr. Seuss’s Green Eggs and Ham? 

But more recently, there has been some unnerving news about Ted Cruz. It’s bad enough that Glenn Beck seems to have gone off the rails with extreme statements and behavior, but now he is claiming that Cruz is the anointed priest, the “Fulfillment of Mormon Prophecy.”

Gateway Pundit has the video of Beck claiming that “This is the Priesthood Rising!”

Earlier reports described Cruz’s “dominionist” father Rafael Cruz who “indicated that his son was among the evangelical Christians who are anointed as “kings” to take control of all sectors of society, an agenda commonly referred to as the “Seven Mountains” mandate, and “bring the spoils of war to the priests”, thus helping to bring about a prophesied “great transfer of wealth”, from the “wicked” to righteous gentile believers. The YouTube video is here (h/t Conservative Treehouse).

Conservative Treehouse (a pro-Trump blogger) discusses the widely held perception that Cruz is a Washington “outsider,” when in fact that elaborate position masks the fact that he is a classic political “insider” and part of the GOPe (GOP elite) network – and has been all along. 

This blog previously posted why there are problems with Cruz’s eligibility as a natural born citizen.

This is all scary stuff, even if Cruz drops out of the race. Gov. Kasich cannot win enough delegates mathematically, so that leaves two alternative scenarios: [1] Donald Trump goes into the July convention with enough votes to meet the new rules of 1,237 delegates (he is presently at 678, Cruz at 423) as well as winning 8 states with a majority (not plurality) of delegates, or [2] the first vote is inconclusive, and the GOPe heads for the backroom to engineer the subsequent vote(s).
