A Tale of Two Gubernatorial Primaries

While the Democrat gubernatorial candidates race to placate far left extremists, the GOP primary race is qualitatively better but there remains room for improvement. Republican gubernatorial hopefuls are on the campaign trail hitting GOP events, speaking opportunities, and advertising how every other candidate is anti-Trump in some way shape or form. This must stop.

It’s true, the GOP base, a significant portion of independents, and even many rank and file Democrats support President Trump (as do we), but the reality remains that all the GOP candidates would be better than any of the Democrats. What GOP voters need isn’t accusations of who is against Trump but substantive proposals to roll back the Dem culture war policies pushing working class residents into poverty, setting neighbor against neighbor, and destroying families. Republicans need gubernatorial candidates to identify how they will shrink state spending, explain how deregulation will benefit the working class, concrete examples demonstrating how to grow the middle class, and explicitly state what they will do to stop the left’s irresponsible and radical agenda.

Republican primary voters need to know what policy proposals the gubernatorial candidates will deploy to win middle of the road general election voters. Now is not the time for hesitation, President Trump didn’t win by being timid. Nor should Republicans argue, as their arguments have amounted to in the past, that they will merely slow the rate of decline. Dem candidates are pandering to special interest groups that are fighting the deportation of violent illegal alien gang members, defending anti-Semitic “student” visa holders whose explicit goal is “the destruction of Western civilization”, want to increase the size of state government, created the incoming 20% electric rate increase with their “green” policies, and want to “teach” children they can switch their sex. GOP candidates need to articulate how they will expand the base, build on the gains President Trump made (in the black, gay, Hispanic, and Jewish communities), lower costs, shrink Trenton, foster prosperity, support law enforcement, chase the extremists out of public education, and Make New Jersey Great Again.
