When Incumbent Republicans Blame Their Failures on Past, Irrelevant Figures | 11/21/25

There is a new trend for GOP officials like JD Vance to blame the failures on the GOP of the past while artfully ignoring that they have the power to change things right now. In fact, Trump and his circle have been in power for five consecutive election cycles and own all of the down-ballot endorsements and policies. They keep dredging up Mike Pence, George Bush, and David French as bogeymen, but when you look carefully, they are ensuring that the same policies continue under our banner without receiving the blame. Through this thesis, I take you through the latest news on data centers, immigration, foreign policy, and the courts to show how the very people who fail us get to live another day by deflecting the blame onto those out of power.  Learn more about your ad choices.
