America Pac, one of the largest and the most ambitious of the groups supporting Donald Trump’s campaign, is replacing its voter turnout operations in the crucial battleground states of Arizona and Nevada, according to two people familiar with the matter.

The political action committee, backed by billionaire Elon Musk, has ended its contract with the September Group and will hire a new company to knock on doors with fewer than 50 days left until the election. America Pac used non-performance as the stated reason to back out of the contract in the past few days, claiming the September Group was not hitting its door-knocking targets, one of people said.

The shakeup comes at a crunch moment for the Trump campaign, which has outsourced virtually its entire ground game operation to a number of political action committees in this presidential cycle. America Pac is seen as the most ambitious, with a presence in every swing state.

As a result of the shakeup, America Pac has not canvassed any neighborhoods in Arizona and Nevada on behalf of the Trump campaign for the past few days as it resets its operations in the two states.

4. I am constantly amazed by people who are so Machiavellian...

And have obviously never read Machiavelli. “The Prince” to be precise.

Instead, in their narcissistic ways they consistently have to re-invent the wheel. FAFO!

They go on and on about Sun Tzu and Rand… and at least Sun Tzu says nearly the same things. I personally have never had the patience for anything Rand. Reading her tripe is like swimming through hot tar.

For any christofascists or broliarch wannabes who may be lurking about, let me paraphrase it for you, “Mercenaries suck!”
