The past 7 days … since TRUMPs inauguration on Monday, January 20th at 12 O’clock Noon … have been one of the most exciting 7 political days in history. Donald J. TRUMP, a man who had the entire apparatus of the United States Government against him … the entire Department of Justice & the FBI hunting him … and he NEVER GAVE UP … he came back and showed us exactly what it meant to #NeverSurrender!!!
One thing in Greenville that we DO NOT allow people to speak about are “EXCUSES”!!! There are no excuses … Donald J. TRUMP did not use excuses to quit … and he had plenty … so we will not either.
Folks will try to say there is too much “apathy” out there and they can not find anyone to come to their Precinct ReOrg meeting. You have got to be kidding me!!! Friends, this is the most exciting time in HISTORY to get MAGA / America FIRST Patriots involved. This is the best time EVER to RECRUIT, RECRUIT, RECRUIT!!!
GROW PERSONALLY & PROFESSIONALLY: I remember 4 years ago, the first time I knocked on a random “Republican” door to invite them to our Precinct ReOrg meeting … it was scary!!! I had a law degree, I was a CPA, I had given presentations to large groups … worked with CEOs, professional athletes & billionaires … but I was nervous not knowing “who” was behind that door and what they would say.
Guess what … it is normal to be nervous … but I pushed through … and it made me a better person individually & professionally. I’ll knock on any door and talk with anyone today. I have learned to LISTEN and connect with people.YES … LISTEN, LISTEN, LISTEN!!! It was one of the best things I ever forced myself to do (since the Citadel) … and it will be GREAT for you too!!!
Sure … find what works for you … door knocking, phone calls, text messages … social media canvasing … whatever works … but CHALLENGE YOURSELF to bring 10 people to your Precinct ReOrg meeting. Push Yourself!!! We all have friends and family living all across South Carolina that SUPPORT TRUMP and want to Make America Great Again!!! Get out there and TELL THEM about #ReOrg2025 … and get them to attend their local precinct ReOrg meeting IN MARCH and vote for the MAGA / America First Patriots.
NOW … get out there and keep recruiting!!!

Coffee & Politics – August 22nd, 2025 – YouTube (HERE), RUMBLE (HERE) & X (HERE)
Friends, we have been running a weekly Coffee & Politics Meeting out of our Greenville Headquarters for nearly 3 1/2 years now … and it has been a huge hit. It is how we communicate our vision and #Mission to or local Volunteers and Community … and it one way we RECRUIT more people to the MAGA America First movement.
As we head into the 2026 South Carolina Primaries next June 9th, Republican (and Democrat) voters will be faced with picking which Republican (or Democrat) they want to represent them in the general election. It will be a choice we each have to make among the available options … the 2, 3 or 5 candidates that filed and are on the ballot … and there is no “None Of The Above” option. Sure, you don’t have to vote … but don’t complain later when you sat out the election.
We are seeing already … the jockeying by political consultants and their operatives to push their candidate (and tear down the opponents) … and the “PERFECTIONISTS” that complain about every candidate, but offer no solutions (and are not willing to run for office themselves).
A THOUGHTFUL APPROACH: Selection of a candidate to support is not easy. None of them are perfect, and how much can you really believe from what you hear on the campaign trail. What we like to encourage is that everyone think critically and logically about candidates and their campaigns, and steer clear as best you can of the emotional knee-jerk reactions that often dominate the discussions.
IT IS NOT JUST THE CANDIDATE – LOOK AT THEIR TEAM: While it’s tempting to focus solely on the candidate, it’s equally important to examine the people they surround themselves with. If you’re unaware of a candidate’s consultants (and their motivations), staff (and their roles), or the candidate’s supporters (who will inevitable have the ear of the candidate), it’s wise to hold off on offering your support. Ultimately, it’s not just about the candidate—it’s about their TEAM (or the “baggage” that comes with them).
We like to prioritize two key qualities when evaluating candidates:
(#1) Electability: A candidate (a) willing to run for office and (b) capable of winning. You may know the “perfect” person, but if they won’t run for office or are not capable of winning … what good are they?
(#2) Collaboration and Integrity: A candidate open to working with The People, with the grassroots, willing to listen, eager to include The People as part of their TEAM, and genuinely committed to doing what’s objectively right for the people—not just themselves (or their monied special interest backers). Here is where experience and judgment comes into consideration because you really don’t know what a candidate might do once elected. We have helped candidates get elected – and then never spoken with them again (not by our choice). Being lied to is a hard lesson to learn.
This process of selecting a candidate to back is both an art and a science, and while we may never find the “perfect” candidate, we can identify and support those who meet these two criteria and give us the best odds of promoting the conservative cause … at least until the next election when we will have another chance to try again.
THE TRUMP OF 2016: Reflecting on the field of “candidates” in 2016 … and the original “candidate” DONALD J. TRUMP … I believe that original candidate TRUMP, embodied these qualities, and that approach has proven effective in helping Save America.
STOP LOOKING FOR A “POLITICAL SAVIOR”: Most importantly, let’s remember, no candidate will save us. There is only one true “Savior”, and He is not running for office. Our work continues, so don’t think you are off the hook if your person gets elected. But having the right people – dedicated TEAM players – in elected positions from top to bottom can make all the difference.
Be smart … be logical … don’t be emotional … and don’t just complain, complain, complain.

The NANCY MACE campaign released polling numbers yesterday showing a commanding early lead in the South Carolina Governor’s Race … 25% MACE, 17% Alan Wilson, 10% Ralph Norman, 6% Pamela Evette, 3% Josh Kimbrell … with 38% Lean / Undecided. You can see the full reports HERE & below.
The polling results show MACE separating herself from the crowd since officially launching her candidacy last week and announcing AUSTIN MCCUBBIN (HERE), the 2024 TRUMP Team Statewide Director, has joined her team. This all seems to make MACE the early odds on favorite to win the Republican Primary next June 9th, 2026 … 294 days from today.
You can find more details on FITSNews (HERE & on X HERE) … but the real story broke when President TRUMP himself shared the MACE Polling Lead on his TRUTH Social (HERE) last night at 9:29pm. When the POTUS shares your leading polling data with the world … that is a not so subtle message.
Good news for NANCY MACE … but and incredibly bad sign for Lt. Governor Pamela Evette who is in a distant 4th with 6% of the vote. The Lt. Governor has led folks to believe she has TRUMP’s endorsement locked up. Well, that claim did not seem believable at the time … and really doesn’t appear believable now. When was the last time TRUMP endorsed someone in 4th place??? We can’t remember either.
Stay tuned … it is going to be a fun 2026 primary season!!!
