"If you’re like me, you remember or recognize the epic voice-over that starts trailers or commercials or ads with 'In a world where…(fill in the blank)…' and it draws you in. If you’re anything like me, as you just read that sentence you heard that voice in your head say that line. Stuff like that sticks with you. It’s genius marketing. It’s repetition. And so it stays in the memory bank and never goes away because it is effective."

"In today's version of 'In a world where…', it would go something like this:"

"'In a world, where the mainstream media and left crazies want to delete, cancel, intimidate and shut you down for taking a stand on truth, it is all the more reason to 100% take a stand.' 'In a world, where not playing the “game” we so often hear from politicians behind the scenes gets you ostracized, labeled, blackmailed and bullied because you don’t fit their “club rules”, it is all the more reason to take a stand.' 'In a world where liars, connivers, thieves and snake oil salesmen pretend to be with the people and then sell out the same people they pretend to be friends with in order to “survive” in the swamp by saving their own asses, it is all the more reason to take a stand.'"

"You get it."

"There was a moment in time during a meeting a few years back where I (being partially still naive to think that career establishment politicians gave a damn about doing the right thing) asked one of our state reps 'wouldn’t it be better for you if you sided with the thousands of voters who want something from you than the handful of elites you work with?' And the response I got in return was a blank stare."

"I have to try to believe that maybe there was a glimmer of them realizing that in that question’s purest and naive nature, he knew I was right, but the conscious decision to either not answer because he knew he couldn’t or that he just chose to remain on the side that falls against the people’s will was disappointing to say the least."

"I still wonder how it is possible for anyone who remotely pays attention and can see the truth for what it is – by the lack of results produced – cannot understand that compromising with those who seek to purposefully not listen to or represent you – is nothing short of a loss."

"If you are conservative and believe that you have moral courage and clarity, follow a certain higher obligation to preserve life, liberty and pursuit of happiness in a nation founded by men and women who were willing to give up literally everything they had – including their families and their own safeties – then how is this so hard to see?"

"I saw this meme the other day. If this isn’t clarity enough, I’m not sure what is."

"'In a world where establishment makes it completely obvious that they have no desire to protect will of people – but have every desire to protect each other – it's all more reason take stand.'"

"The established side of both 'sides' are in it for established side and protect themselves. The consistent call patriots anti-establishment candidates during past primaries subtle somewhat privately hidden way saying 'do what you're told or else'."

"Plain simple - taking stand wins. It wins people. Because people want ‘real’ truth."

"Again let remind Republican establishment spent hundreds thousands collective dollars funneled through shady dark money organizations destroy character party outsiders primaries Wisconsin past August many unfortunately defeated these tactics." "These ‘real’ people attacked posed absolute threat security politicians consistently failed people Wisconsin." "Established Republican Party Wisconsin CHOSE wanted didn’t want played favorites."

"The good folks beaten smear campaign picking winners losers party surface may look victory establishment reality hope strengthening resolve inside we-people movement seems grow each passing day."

"Another point needs made concerning how taking stand isn’t actually as ‘detrimental’ as they’d like think," "27th District candidate Lindee Brill ran aggressive integrity-based primary campaign thought independently ran independently establishment return voice-to-people candidate."

"She stood solid stances such pro-life (actuality), election integrity pro-parent involved education programs anti-trafficking anti-fentanyl epidemic candidate." "Lindee ran stances unwilling waver regardless political pressure cave."

"And bottom line against establishment remaining course values values others concerted effort silence stand she won decisively clearly." "People 27th District chose taking stand common sense over more same wish fought like did."

"Taking stand holds value always will."

"In world taking stand looked down need more people take stand caveat position stands divisive bad unifying looked down actually much smaller insignificant than they’d believe." "World taking stands lives thrives reality living rooms workplaces dinner tables rides grocery store doctor office school auditoriums distant battlefield battle buddy risking life next him her not thinking why current combat setting finding themselves meanwhile politicians friends media causing confusion make second guess every decision make aforementioned situations."

"One thing stays true through all never back off taking stand proven strategy victory never back off taking stand matter pressure because world depends on."
