Conservative Review with Daniel Horowitz

Escaping from the Trump Trap - Ep. 37 Jun 10, 2016

Show notes

Republicans of all stripes are caught in the vicious cycle of having to respond to everything Trump says. They are ensnared in the circuitous Trump trap.

How do they escape?

In this episode, Daniel and Joe discuss the false choice conservatives have been given by the media and political class. Everything in politics is always a binary choice. This year it has fully centered around Trump – whether one is pro-Trump or anti-Trump.

The only way to get out of this trap is to redefine the landscape and actually stand for something. Imagine if Republicans actually fought for some of the priorities we focus on here at Conservative Review?

Then, the binary choice would be whether you are for flooding the country with un-vetted refugees or whether you stand for American sovereignty and security. Or it would be a choice of whether you stand for privacy and sanity with men not being allowed in female dressing rooms or not?

Those are choices conservatives can win. But with a party standing for nothing other than quietly rubber-stamping Obama’s agenda, by default the only exciting news is Trump.

Thus, they are caught in a trap of their own making.

Murky Waters of the Middle East w/guest Patrick Poole - Ep. 36 Jun 07, 2016

Show notes

In this episode, Daniel has a special guest, Patrick Poole, who uses his expertise to navigate the murky waters of the Middle East. Daniel and Patrick mark the 72nd anniversary of D-Day and lament how our military and strategic vision has fallen so low since those days of glory. Our military has been abused in recent years by being placed in the cross-fire of sectarian civil wars with no national security interests, definitive outcomes, or reasonable rules of engagement.

Patrick offers unique insights and updates on what is happening in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Libya. He observes how our special operations soldiers are being stretched thin and being placed in impossible circumstances because they are being used as the president’s private army in order to fulfill his fundamental global transformation.

Finally, Daniel notes that with the upcoming debate in the Senate over the defense authorization bill, Republicans have an opportunity to stand for our military and question Obama’s misuse of our soldiers in pursuit of aimless missions. Sadly, we have no men on the field in Washington to stand for the men who are being placed in the line of fire. A far cry from the WWII days when our soldiers knew that their military and political leadership had their back.

The Transgendered GOP Congress - Ep. 35 May 27, 2016

Show notes

The GOP has had the Majority in the House and Senate for a while now, and the excuse of not passing positive legislation is that Obama would simply veto any meaningful measures.

But when they carry the water for Obama as they appeared to have done on the Transgendered Bill this week, you have to see them for what they really are: a transgendered GOP Congress. They identify as Republicans, but in reality the way they vote and legislate is that of liberals.

Making State Legislatures Great Again - Ep. 34 May 20, 2016

Show notes

There is a good chance that no new conservatives will be elected to the U.S. Senate. Few if any conservatives will be on ballots for the House. As for the GOP Presidential nominee... well...

So what are conservatives left with? Daniel and Joe argue it is the best hope, and possibly best strategy for conservatives to regain a foothold in the political arena. It isn't an easy or quick solution, but it would have lasting and important effects on the political landscape for years to come.

Oligarchy: Liberals Winning 50 Year Battle Overnight May 13, 2016

Show notes

The Democrats have successfully shifted the entire universe of the political spectrum in just a few years. Their radicalism thrives without consistent, principled opposition.
The radical leftists have seized control of the Democrat Party, which has allowed them to control the media, the institutions of higher learning, and then the culture.
Fundamentally, the Republicans have done nothing to fight back. That is why President Obama has “fundamentally transformed” America in 8 short years.
The latest attempt by the left to redefine what it means to be a man and what it means to be a woman is just the latest example of the left’s ability to radically change the culture in the absence of principled opposition. Is there any floor to the decadence or any point at which Republicans will fight back?
Daniel demonstrates how the only way to save the Republic is to begin operating like a third party within the GOP. The only way to accomplish that is by changing primaries into representative conventions in the 10 most conservative states. Daniel explains the path forward out of this cultural Marxism gripping every aspect of our society.

Special Guest: Dan Forest, Lt. Gov of North Carolina re: Bathroom Laws May 11, 2016

Show notes

What is the truth behind North Carolina’s common sense law to prevent radicals from tearing down any and every private space for women – be it bathrooms, dormitories, or locker rooms? How did this battle begin and who is standing with local North Carolina Republicans to combat the insanity?

Dan Forest, North Carolina’s Lieutenant Governor, joins Daniel to warn the country that if they fail to stand with North Carolina, every state will be overcome with this radical transformation. One of the few brave, articulate, and principled conservatives in an era of a lost Republican Party, Forest makes it clear that he will not back down in the face of boycott threats from the corporate cronies who’ve sought to placate the radical sexual identity movement.

A Republic, not a Democracy - Ep. 30 Apr 29, 2016

Show notes

Our once proud constitutional republic has turned into a pure democracy. In this episode of the Conservative Conscience, Daniel and Joe demonstrate from the outcome of the presidential and congressional primaries how pure democracy leads to tyranny. It would be much better to conduct primaries through the Colorado convention model where anyone can still participate, but the process tends to attract only those voters truly engaged with the political reality and familiar with the authentic records of each candidate.

The Trump campaign has successfully framed the conventions as “voterless elections” orchestrated by the establishment against the will of “the people.” In reality, as Daniel explains, the conventions are dominated by the most committed conservative activists in each state who truly reflect the will of the people and the Constitution, as envisioned by our Founders in a republican form of government. Pure democratic primaries, on the other hand, reflect nothing more than the will of Rupert Murdock who uses Fox News (Faux News) as a means to manipulate public sentiment. In this case, Fox’s agenda is #NeverCruz; in other cases it will be against a candidate even Trump voters like.

By going through his experience with congressional primary challenges, Daniel makes a compelling case to Trump voters that, in the long run, RINOS like John McCain will always win reelection in democratic primaries. The only way to defeat them is through a convention that harnesses a republican model of precinct or district representation.

Is There No Cause Worth Fighting For? - Ep. 29 Apr 22, 2016

Show notes

Is there not a cause that conservatives will rise to fight for? Can Republicans unify behind a cause that is transcendent? Donald Trump is winning because he represent change from the usual status quo of Republicans folding instead of fighting. But what would Trump the president look like as compared to Trump the candidates?

Beyond Trump, who is the master of the sound-bite, why aren’t conservatives fighting for seminal issues to reclaim our government and fight for SOVEREIGNTY, SECURITY, and SOCIETY?

The GOP Congress is Scoring Points for the Other Team Apr 15, 2016

Show notes

One of the reasons that Trump-mania is sweeping the nation is that the voting electorate is mad at anyone associated with the federal government. Republicans are not immune to this dissatisfaction, because even with the majority, they are scoring points for the Left, and allowing the Obama administration to get whatever they want.

Since coming back, Congress has done nothing but focus on backwards priorities, all the while ignoring winning 80/20 issues simply because they might have the slightest hint of “SOCIAL” attached to their policy description. Along with the fact that Senate GOP leadership is up to its old tricks again, trying to prevent a way for Sen. Mike Lee from gaining a position on Senate leadership.

Daniel and Joe discuss the top issues that the GOP is focusing on, and the ones that they should actually be concerned with – the ones that most impact the country and should be the focus of the presidential race and Congress’ attention.
