Sunday Thoughts July 30, 2023

Way back when I started talking about Tim Scott being the Republican nominee, most people assumed it was a joke, but I was serious. The regime is increasingly controlled by narratives that gain popularity inside the ruling class. Once the narrative becomes established, everyone acts to make the narrative come true. Not only does it become immoral to question the narrative, but everyone is also required to do their part to further the narrative.

Somewhere in the past, the narrative on the Republican side was that Trump would be removed from the primary either legally or procedurally. They would indict him enough that he either agreed to bow out or the party would be forced to remove him from the ticket. DeSantis would be Scott Walker 2.0 and drop out before he ruined his career completely. That would leave Tim Scott as the guy to be the Republican Obama, who would restore things back to before Trump.

To sane people, this sounds nuts, but we are not ruled by sane people. This Ross Douthat post pretending like he just heard about the plot to make Tim Scott the nominee is another sign that the wheels are slowly grinding along to make the narrative into reality. Douthat plays the role of sober minded intellectual conservative. The task for the people playing this role is to pretend to slowly come around to this idea as the solution to the Trump crisis.

It remains to be seen if they can pull it off. As we see with the Ukraine disaster, these people may be crazy, but they are also quite stupid. Yanking Trump off the ballot at the convention could be the straw that breaks the camel’s back. There is a lot of simmering anger in American society. Worse yet for the regime is that white racial consciousness is become a thing. Close to 80% of Trump supporters think antiwhite prejudice is an important issue. Tim Scott could be a tipping point.
