UniParty At Work – Paul Ryan SuperPac Campaigned to Elect Democrat Conor Lamb…

It’s well known that Republican Speaker of the House Paul Ryan doesn’t want to
be in an actual leadership position; and it’s also well known -enhanced by the
campaign, and victory, of Donald Trump- that Republicans did not want to win the
majority position and face having to reveal their true UniParty agenda
<https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2017/05/02/the-uniparty-congress-deserves-
no-quarter/> .

Lobbying Congress:
1986 - $61 million, avg. $113,700 per lawmaker
2016 - $3.1 billion, avg. $5.8 million per lawmaker

The evidence of this UniParty positioning has been staring the electorate in
the face
<https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2016/11/06/understanding-legislative-prior
ities-through-the-eyes-of-the-uniparty/> , repeatedly and brutally, since
candidate Donald Trump actually campaigned on key tenets of the Republican party
and found himself being openly opposed by GOP leadership.

Now, there will be some who think this is just a bone-headed move
<https://t.co/46JOUG3DX6>  by Paul Ryan because the Democrats already held a
+50,000 registration advantage in the district and the SuperPAC didn’t know this
mailer would actually end up supporting Lamb.  However, as mentioned, there’s a
history here that tells us “a mistake <https://t.co/46JOUG3DX6> ” is likely not
the case.
The real motive, based on an honest review of history, is the professional
UniParty apparatus knew that Democrat Conor Lamb needed a lift to offset the
cross party voting that was reflected in the district voting (by over 20 points)
for Donald Trump in 2016.
The DC Republican apparatus is quite comfortable losing their majority position
so long as they are not forced to support Trump policies which are entirely
against their financial interests.  [How Mitch McConnell Crushed The Tea-Party

Even before candidate Trump entered the 2016 presidential race, the agenda
<https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2016/11/06/understanding-legislative-prior
ities-through-the-eyes-of-the-uniparty/>  was visible for anyone who was willing
to admit it.  In 2014 the same Republican leadership paid Democrats to vote

simply because Mitch McConnell didn’t like the idea of having an actual
Republican in the seat.

“DC-Republican” positions are opposed by the current Republican President and
the majority of Republican voters.

Enhancing and emphasizing my argument that this mailer as a deliberate effort
to elect a Democrat, I would remind everyone of a few brutally obvious points:
♦the Republican controlled senate voted unanimously to block any Trump recess
appointments (summer 2017
<https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2017/08/04/republican-senate-blocks-presid
ent-trump-from-recess-appointments/> );
♦and also the reality that both the House and Senate had no legislative
constructs
<https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2017/11/16/legislation-and-lobbyists/>
prepared for a Trump victory in January/February 2017;
♦and top off the cake of duplicity with the fact it was Republican controlled
House and Senate committees who willingly opened ridiculous investigations
against their own elected president claiming a ‘Vast Planetary Russian Collusion
Conspiracy’.

In short, both Republicans and Democrats want the threat of Donald Trump
removed.
There is no desire on the part of Paul Ryan/Kevin McCarthy or Mitch
McConnell/John Cornyn to actually win seats in 2018.  These GOP “leaders” would
just as soon lose their majority position so they can go back to the comfortable
indulgences of remaining in leadership in the minority status.



In the minority the leadership of the GOP are no longer threatened by President
Trump and can hide behind the smokescreen of loyal opposition.
Substantively nothing changes, and the GOP leaders are just as well compensated
in the minority by the lobbyist industry within DC.
The only threat to the financial interests of the GOP is President Donald Trump
remaining in office and having to actually face carrying out a conservative
Trump agenda in 2019 and 2020.  That Trump agenda is entirely against their
“establishment republican” interests.
