OUCH: Populist-For-Pay Ryan Girdusky is Humiliated on Twitter for Opposing Kari Lake
Ryan Girdusky, 1776 Project PAC founder and proud LGBT Republican, is getting trashed on social media because of his opinions criticizing Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake for being too hardcore and pro-MAGA.
Girdusky said that Lake needed to rein in her populism after winning her primary in heroic fashion last week. He pointed to criticism from former RINO Arizona Governor Jan Brewer as evidence backing up his assertion while insinuating Lake’s pro-Trump supporters are rubes:
The Kari Lake supporters are salty.
Here’s the deal, recognize that the main issue for voters is not an election from 2 years ago or attacking the memory of John McCain. Stop being fringe and stop being cringe. Lake can still do this, but not by being the Walmart Eva Peron https://t.co/fwty16fFzS

The American Conservative writer Collin Pruett brought up Brewer’s terrible record as governor while she led John McCain’s Arizona GOP:
Brewer vetoed:
– School Choice
– Concealed Carry in public buildings
– Ban on county gun buyback programs
– Religious freedom protectionsI guess this is the Northeast’s standard for “conservative leadership” https://t.co/O4qfpYvaBU

Girdusky responded with an insult and a weak deflection:
Collin you don’t always have to act as stupid as you look.
At the time Brewer was governor, the GOP was fighting for amnesty for illegals, voting for bailouts for banks, and cash for clunkers. Paul Ryan & Mark Sanford we’re the conservative standard bearers https://t.co/arIMxbxgSg

Turning Point PAC leader Tyler Bowyer also slammed Girdusky for his ignorant remarks:
Absolutely false. She pointed her finger in Obama's face and then pushed Medicaid Expansion for him. Jan campaigned as a conservative, won on conservative platform and then was a huge let down after she helped Obamacare in AZ. https://t.co/Pyjo9rxMfJ

Bowyer embarrassed the arrogant faux-populist once again during a brief exchange:
You’re right I probably am no expert. I was only appointed by her to the board of regents and was a GOP chair for her last two years in office. No idea what I’m talking about

Endorsing Joe Arpaio is not the hallmark of a conservative Governor. Everyone and their mom supported and got support from Joe. Rite of passage in 2010 after Salmon got beat when he endorsed Napolitano over him years before.

Claremont Institute Lincoln Fellow Matthew Tyrmand then kicked Girdusky while he was down:
#Girduskypox progenitor @RyanGirdusky runs his mouth off all the time. Usually when he is on a payroll. (Or at a highway rest stop. Or foot tapping at airport restrooms Larry Craig style.) Always an agenda. Totally dishonest. And not very smart. But what a mouth 👄 https://t.co/HlOayGyduO

Now please disclose which campaigns, or affiliated/candidate supporting PACs, you are on the payroll of? They don’t call the new strain #Girduskypox for nothing 🤔🤦♂️🤡😂 #EuporieLLCforHire
(I’m thinking AZ MO now and auditioning for rest) https://t.co/oJLMJOJI4X— Matthew Tyrmand (@MatthewTyrmand) August 2, 2022
Girdusky is part of a movement, dubbed “Populist Inc,” filled with scammers and opportunists looking for an opportunity to cash out and co-opt the rise of President Trump’s “America First” populism. Before his reinvention as a national populist, Girdusky supported far-left politicians in New York, including NYC Councilwoman Helen Sears and gun control maniac Michael Bloomberg. He also sucked resources off of the Ron Paul movement before it fizzled, working with the Liberty for All PAC that raised millions from libertarians with little to show for it in terms of results.
Big League Politics has reported on Populist Inc’s subversive influence on the America First movement in the past:
“New York Young Republicans President Gavin Wax recently appeared on Big League Politics Live where he discussed the problems with the Populist Inc. apparatus that has emerged to exert influence over Republican Party politics following Trump’s presidency.
Wax commented on the impetus for some to move past Trump, which he believes is an error. He pointed out that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, the individual who is typically called the heir apparent to Trump, had a troubling voting record in Congress, particularly with regards to foreign policy, before Trump elevated him as a prominent national figure.
