Club for Growth Invites DeSantis to Join Haley, Pompeo, Pence, Youngkin and Scott for 2024 Planning Session at Donor Retreat


Perhaps it’s just me but having followed the GOPe schemes and machinations for so many years it seems a little blasé to see the Wall St republican control groups begin open admissions about how they construct their planning sessions.  However, for the interest of those who still think the larger Big Club design is all just a massive conspiracy theory, perhaps it is beneficial to record the actual moments as they happen.

David McIntosh the president of the Club for Growth lobbying group that represents the interests of U.S. multinationals and Wall Street finance players, has organized another “donor retreat” session; where ‘donor retreat’ is the assembly of the Republican big club operatives who manipulate and control the Republican big club candidates, aka the establishment.

The multinationals, led by CfG, are assembling to coordinate plans with, Nikki Haley, Tim Scott, Mike Pence, Glenn Youngkin and Mike Pompeo.

McIntosh tells The Hill he as invited Ron DeSantis (lolol) but faces the problem of the pretending stuff, whereas the people managing DeSantis have a problem.

DeSantis managers cannot let him just arbitrarily go attend the planning session, without admitting their principal is part of the group’s 2024 strategy plan.  See the problem?  This is what happens when managers have to maintain pretenses as part of their strategy.  They cannot participate in anything that undercuts their pretense.

If you think about it in the bigger picture, the pretending is just silly.  However, those who construct these schemes do so while relying on what Jonathan Gruber called, “the stupidity of the American voter.”

All of that said, the economics of the thing is the core of the issue, the heart of the matter, the epicenter of it all, the united and aligned opposition of the Wall Street donor class to U.S. economic interests.

It is specifically the economics of the thing that creates the issue that brings the entire Republican establishment into one larger aligned effort.  They must never permit America-First economic policy to rise again.  Boil it all down and their worldview puts money above the value of the constitution.

There are trillions at stake.  It really is that simple.

WASHINGTON DC – […] On Monday, David McIntosh, the president of the conservative Club for Growth, told reporters that the group had invited DeSantis to its annual donor retreat and was hoping to feature him as a keynote speaker.

DeSantis wasn’t the only 2024 prospect to land an invite to the gathering. The Club also extended invitations to former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley, former Vice President Mike Pence, former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin (R) and Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.). Trump was notably left off that list.

But for the time being, DeSantis is best positioned to break through in the primary, McIntosh said, adding that while Trump has universal name ID among voters, the Florida governor “still has room to grow.”

“What the club believes the Republican Party should do is make sure whoever we nominate will actually win,” McIntosh said. “The party should be open to looking at a different candidate. DeSantis is in the strongest position.” (read more)

I would recommend reading the entire article to get an appreciation for what I have already predicted as the DeSantis timeline.

Those associated with the planning have put DeSantis entry into the 2024 field between late May and late September, it depends on how long they can keep pretending.

Once you realize this construct, then you realize why I have been pushing against the pretending since July and August of 2022.  I am trying to force the DeSantis handlers to quit pretending by calling out the absurdity of their plan to maintain plausible deniability.

Technically DeSantis could wait all the way until October 2023 before the legal stuff with the 2024 election primaries require his official registration.  I’m not sure exactly when the managers of Ron DeSantis will pull the trigger, but what I do know is their plan is for him to be the last one to enter.

All preceding 2024 entrants are intended to weaken the America-First candidate through a series of planned, organized and media assisted unrelenting attacks.  The UniParty apparatus in DC will help throughout.  Meanwhile the principal benefactor of their efforts, the candidate they are all in place to support, gets to remain ‘above the fray’ and away from the targeting by President Trump and the MAGA supporting base.

That’s their plan, and so far they are sticking to it.

Reminder, the Club for Growth has been a long-time donor to Ron DeSantis. The foreign policy and economic policies of DeSantis flow from this Wall Street alignment.
