For the past 18 years, Senate Republicans have had one leader: Mitch McConnell took the job in 2006 and has retained it ever since. But with his decision to step down from the post after Novemberβs elections, there are three Republicans vying to replace him.
One of them is Sen. Rick Scott of Florida. He was first elected to the Senate in 2018 and ran against McConnell two years ago.
Heβs now competing with Sens. John Cornyn of Texas and John Thune of South Dakota to win the support of his Senate Republican colleagues.
The Daily Signal invited all three senators to discuss their plans, and Scott was the first to accept our request. Listen to our interview on βThe Daily Signal Podcastβ or read a lightly edited transcript below.
Rob Bluey: Senator, why did you decide to enter the race for Republican leader?
Sen. Rick Scott: First off, weβve got to have big change. Letβs think about just the citizens we represent. Theyβre fed up with a budget thatβs not balanced. Theyβre fed up with an open border. Theyβre fed up with all this wasteful spending. Theyβre fed up, basically, with the federal government thatβs out of control.
If you want change, youβre going to have to change your way the Senate is run. We need to go back to represent our states. We need to be fighting over issues. The bill shouldnβt be decided by McConnell and [Senate Majority Leader Chuck] Schumer. We should go through a committee process. Thereβs so many things weβve got to do to get this country back where it needs to go.
We need to have a Republican leader that has a relationship with President [Donald] Trump. Heβs going to win. Heβs going to have an agenda. We got to do everything we can to help him get his agenda done.
Bluey: When you talk about those big changes, in some ways, it seems that youβre suggesting the Senate is broken right now and needs fixing. What are some of the ways that you would go about making sure those reforms are put into place?
Scott: No. 1, I donβt think a leader should have a term of more than six years. No. 2 is the bill shouldnβt be done by McConnell and Schumer. They should be done at the committee level where everybody has the opportunity to have input that are on those committees.
And then after that, we ought to have a robust amendment process on the Senate floor. So, if I would like an amendment thatβs going to represent my state better, I ought to be able to do that.
If I canβt talk people into it, thatβs my problem. If I donβt even have a chance because the bill never went through a committee or we never had any amendment votes, I have the opportunity to say yes or no. Thatβs not the way the Senate is supposed to represent work. Iβm supposed to be able to represent my state and fight for the issues that are important to my state. Thatβs not how the Senate works right now.
Bluey: As youβve observed Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumerβs approach to running the Senate, what you see as some of his biggest or most glaring failures?
Scott: He wants to, and he does a lot of this with McConnell, but they want to write the bills. Itβs not written out of a committee. It doesnβt come up through a committee.
Thereβs one or two people who have input and then if they put them on the Senate floor where you just have an up-or-down vote, you donβt even have a chance to improve it. We all have ways we could improve these bills and we donβt even have a shot at trying to improve the bills.
Thatβs not the way the Senate is supposed to work. Iβm supposed to be able to fight like hell for my state. Every senator should have the opportunity to fight for their state, but if you donβt go through a committee, you have no input on the bill, and you donβt have any amendment votes, itβs pretty hard to represent your state.
Bluey: Some of the early chatter in Washington seems to revolve around a leaderβs role in raising money for members of his party. Iβm curious to know your thoughts on that and perhaps why that shouldnβt be the sole qualification for somebody to get the job as leader?
Scott: Any leader is going to be able to raise money. A lot of the money flows through PACs that the leader might be or is tied to. Anybody is going to be able to raise the money as long as youβre willing to do the job.
As you know, Iβm from a big state, so for my governorβs race I had to raise a lot of money and my Senate race. But the real job of the Senate leader is to represent the conference. Our bylaws, Republican bylaws, require us to have a legislative agenda. We havenβt had a legislative agenda since Iβve been up here for five years.
We need to come together as a group and say, βWhat do we want to get done the next two years?β And then letβs say, βOK, so now this is what we want to get done. How do we get it done? Whatβs going to be our strategy? What do we have to do to get these things done?β
Thatβs what we ought to be doing every day. We shouldnβt be sitting there and be reactive to what Chuck Schumer does.
And then, if we can get the majority, which Iβm very optimistic, then letβs lead. Letβs focus on how do we secure the border? How do we balance the budget? How do we improve our foreign policy and have a positive agenda to solve the problems that the American public has sent us all to D.C. to do?
Bluey: Conservatives were clamoring for that legislative agenda back in 2022 for the midterm elections. You offered one, Sen. McConnell rejected your idea, instead said he wanted to merely run against President [Joe] Biden. Looking back in retrospect, why was McConnellβs strategy a mistake?
Scott: He has the belief that you shouldnβt stand for anything. You should just talk about how bad the Democrats are. And the Democrats are bad, thereβs no question about it.
But my experience as a business guy is I was able to attract talent to work with me on my management teams because I had an agenda to get done and they bought into the agenda. If they didnβt like my agenda, they wouldnβt come to work with me. The public wants a plan. The public wants a plan. I had a plan when I ran in 2010 to be governor to turn the economics of our state around, give people a job. When I came to D.C., I had a plan for how to make Washington work for you.
The public is clamoring for a plan. The public is clamoring for somebody thatβs going to fight like hell to defeat the policies and the ideology of the radical Left, which we all know is destroying this country. Thatβs what the public wants. Thatβs what we all talk about when we run. While we ought to do it when weβre here.
Bluey: Youβve mentioned your role as a successful businessman. You have served as Floridaβs governor. You have also worn the hat of being chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee. In all three of those roles that youβve had, what is your leadership style? What can people expect from you as somebody who is aspiring for this job?
Scott: First off, Iβm very goal-oriented. I want to accomplish something. I became the governor, I built businesses because I wanted to accomplish something. I ran to the Senate because I wanted to accomplish something.
Iβve been very clear with my Senate role, weβve got to change the way Washington works. Itβs not working the American public right now. What theyβre going to see is somebody thatβs very focused on getting a result. Thatβs No. 1.
No. 2, if you look at my business career, my government career, this is a team event. Youβve got to bring people together to find a common goal to get anything done. And itβs not going to be just your ideas. You have to have a consensus. And so, youβve got to figure out what it is and then you have to work and have a strategy to accomplish it.
If you look at any successful business, if you look at successful governors, thatβs what they do. They have a plan and they work their plan. They surround themselves with people that believe in what theyβre trying to accomplish.
Thatβs what theyβll see. If I can become the Republican leader, hopefully the majority leader, youβll have a Republican conference that is very results-oriented and the goals will be very clear.
We will solve the problems that the country believes are the most important problems today. Those are securing the border, making sure that we get inflation under control, balancing the budget, making sure we fix our foreign policies so we donβt have wars going all around the world.
Bluey: On that specific note, what are some steps that you would like to take to empower those individual Republican senators to have a greater role in the legislative process?
Scott: The biggest thing is ask for their opinion, ask for their advice to get them in the middle of everything.
We have very talented Republican senators. And we are to say, βOK, with your background, would you like to be involved in this?β And you get people in the middle of it, of the issues.
And guess what? You bring out new ideas, you bring out new energy, and you get a lot of things done. But the biggest thing is, you get people in the middle of the problem. Republican senators, they want to solve problems, so let them do it, get them in the middle of it.
Bluey: What is your vision for reducing this reliance that it seems that Washington has year after year for omnibus spending bills and emergency supplementals?
Scott: Not having a budget to me is foolish. Itβs not fair to the American public. Not having a budget is just basically having spending bills. What that means is weβre going to have more inflation.
Thatβs wrong. We should do everything we can to help all of our families by getting inflation under control. You cannot do it with a balanced budget, so we now have almost $35 trillion worth the debt. We have interest expense that exceeds our national defense budget. We have a Federal Reserve whose balance sheet is out of control.
Whatβs going to happen is, in that environment, interest rates canβt come down. That means that if you think youβre going to get a lower interest rate for a house, youβre foolish. Your credit card rate, interest rates are not going to come down. On top of that, weβre not going to see a reduction in gas prices and food prices and these things. So, spending matters.
Iβve always, my business life, I balanced the budget. The governorβs job, we balanced the budget every year. We actually paid off a third of the state debt in my years as governor. We can do this at the federal level.
The way you do it, is you say, this is my anticipated federal revenue, so thatβs how much money weβre going to spend. You can do it, but if you just always say to yourself, βI donβt think I can get that done,β thatβs going to be reality, you will not get it done.
Bluey: Will there be any backroom deals with a Leader Rick Scott in charge of things?
Scott: No, no. We all are part of this. You need to be transparent, you need to tell everybody whatβs happening. If you want people to support what youβre doing, you donβt do it behind closed doors. You do it by talking to people, by getting their information, by getting them involved in what youβre trying to accomplish.
Bluey: You challenged Mitch McConnell for this job in 2022. What lessons did you learn from that race that you hope to apply this time?
Scott: Unfortunately, in that race, they rushed the vote to the next day, so we didnβt have time to actually go and sit down with everybody.
What Iβm hoping to do is sit down with every Republican senator and say, βWhat do you want to accomplish?β And then my role will be if I can win is to say, βHow do I help you accomplish your goals? How do I help you represent your state?β
The Republican leaderβs responsibility is to help each senator be successful. A successful senator is somebody that is successfully representing their individual state.
Bluey: Sen. McConnell has served 18 years as leader. You would like to have a six-year term limit for this position. Why is that change important to you?
Scott: Iβve always believed in term limits because, No. 1, nobody consolidates power for a long time that way. No 2 is everybody realizes that you only have six years to get what you want to accomplish, so everybody gets more results-focused.
We have term limits for the governor, we have term limits for our legislature, and what that means is youβre going to get new leadership with new energy every few years, youβre going to have people very focused on what they can get done in their time in leadership or their time in office.
Bluey: Two of your colleagues, Sens. John Thune and John Cornyn, are also in the mix for Republican leader. What distinguishes you from each of them?
Scott: First off, they work hard to represent their state. Probably the difference to what I bring to the table is my business background. I built the largest hospital company; I built a variety of manufacturing companies. Iβve been involved in a variety of businesses. My first business was a donut shop when I was 22 and I got out of the Navy, so my mom could have a job. I had the opportunity to serve in the military. I had the opportunity to be the governor.
Those are the types of things I bring to the table, but the biggest thing is, and I tell people, Iβm a turnaround guy. If you think the countryβs headed in the right direction and you donβt think there has to be dramatic change, no one should vote for me. I believe the countryβs in trouble. I believe thereβs so many people in the American public who are struggling. The only way weβre going to make their lives better is if we have dramatic change. And thatβs what I bring to the table.
Bluey: Have you seen examples of your entry into the race or even just the chatter about you potentially entering the race before you formally did that has moved either of them in your direction when it comes to some of the reforms that maybe Mitch McConnell has not necessarily endorsed in the past?
Scott: One thing everyone has started talking about is term limits. Most people who are elected donβt really believe in term limits, but the average person believes in it. I know the public believes in it. Now weβre having a real conversation about. Should there be a six-year term?
We have a six-year term for every other leadership position in the Republican Senate. We ought to have one for the leader. Thereβs no reason it should be different. I think thatβs No. 1.
No. 2, weβre starting to have conversation about it. How should we be managed? Because the leaderβs role is not to be a dictator. The leaderβs role is to be a leader of a group of individuals that get to represent their individual states.
Bluey: I recently had the opportunity to talk to Sen. Roger Marshall about the Republican-wide discussion that took place. It seems that those types of events may occur more frequently in the future, should this play out the way you hope.
Scott: I believe in it. I believe we ought to have real conversations and then have real discussions and let everybody bring their ideas to the table without any negative ramifications.
I donβt get why I was kicked off and [Sen.] Mike Lee was kicked off the Commerce Committee just because I ran against McConnell. It doesnβt make any sense to me. I think Iβve run the biggest company of any person ever in the history of the Senate thatβs served. And then Mike and I got kicked off because Mike nominated me to be the Republican leader. That stuff is wrong.
>>> Sen. Roger Marshall Prescribes Solutions for Congressβ Budget Woes
We ought to say, βHey, Rick, you bring this to the table. Mike, you bring this to the table.β Whoever it is, βThis is what you bring to the table. You ought to be really active in those ideas. And letβs fight over whoβs got the best idea and then letβs come together with the goal that we get a result.β
I know that we have to secure the border. I know that we have to get inflation under control. These are things that are so simple to me that the public needs and deserves.
Bluey: Those, of course, are big priorities of former President Donald Trump as well. You sound confident that heβs going to be victorious in November. Why are you the one whoβs best positioned to not only advance his agenda, but also those critical votes on the nominees he puts forward to serve in his administration.
Scott: I knew President Trump before either of us ran for office. Iβve known him for a long time. I believe in what heβs trying to accomplish. Heβs in the same position I am, that we have to have a dramatic change. We canβt nibble at the edges. There has to be a significant change in how our federal government is run. The public realizes that, thatβs why heβs going to win.
What heβs going to need is a partner in the Senate who wants that to happen and help to make sure thatβs exactly what happens in the Senate, not just in the White House.
Bluey: And finally, what kind of reaction have you received either from your constituents in Florida or some of your colleagues in the Republican conference since making the announcement?
Scott: Iβve had a lot of positive feedback. No. 1, my colleagues that want to sit down and talk about where we go, so thatβs a positive. No. 2, in the state of Florida, people are excited that thereβs a possibility of a Republican leader and hopefully the majority of their leaders are coming from our state.

Democrats might control the Senate, but theyβll have a hard time getting things done if 10 of their Republican counterparts have anything to say about it.
Following a New York juryβs guilty verdict against former President Donald Trumpβand President Joe Bidenβs subsequent cheerleading of the decisionβ10 Republican senators vowed to oppose Democratsβ legislative priorities and nominations.
βThe White House has made a mockery of the rule of law and fundamentally altered our politics in un-American ways. As a Senate Republican conference, we are unwilling to aid and abet this White House in its project to tear this country apart,β the Republican senators said in a statement released Friday.
It currently has 10 signatories:
Notably missing from the list is Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., whose milquetoast response Thursdayβabout four hours after the juryβs decisionβdrew scorn from conservatives.
The statement signed by the 10 Republicans outlines three areas where they plan to stymie Democrats:
Democrats currently control 48 seats with three independent senators who caucus with them. Their narrow majority gives Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., little room to navigate, particularly on matters requiring a 60-vote threshold.
Now, with 10 Republican senators promising to make things even more difficult for Schumer, Democrats face the prospect of a Senate stuck in a stalemate.
Lee spearheaded the effort and wants to recruit more senators to the cause.
βWe are no longer cooperating with any Democrat legislative priorities or nominations, and we invite all concerned Senators to join our stand,β Lee wrote on X.
Scott, who is running to for GOP leader in the next Congress, endorsed the effort Friday.
βOur country is in real trouble,β Scott said. βRepublicans must stand together and end this madness.β
Marshall put the blame on Bidenβs βpartisan hack judges,β accusing them of weaponizing the judicial system against the presidentβs political opponent.
The jury found Trump guilty Thursday on all 34 charges of falsifying business records to hide βhush moneyβ payments in 2016 to former pornographic movie actress Stormy Daniels.
Upon leaving the courthouse,Β Trump called the trialΒ a disgrace and said, βThis was a rigged trial by a conflicted judge who is corrupt.β He continued: βThe real verdict is going to be Nov. 5 by the people.β
His sentencing hearing will take place July 11, just days before the Republican National Convention convenes in Milwaukee.
βThe White Houseβs weaponization of our government to target President Trump for political gain represents the pinnacle of two tiers of justice,β Blackburn wrote on X. βWe cannot allow this grave injustice to prevail in the United States of America.
Tuberville, who last year delayed the promotions of military officers over a dispute with the Biden administration, signaled he was once again willing to engage in a similar tactic.
Just one of those military officers remains in limbo today: Air Force Col. Ben Jonsson, whose controversial statements endorsing critical race theory in 2020 prompted an outcry. Schmitt is blocking his promotion to brigadier general.
βDemocrats have destroyed the integrity of our justice system, and made a mockery of the Constitutionβall in the name of maintaining political power,β Schmitt wrote on X. βMy colleagues and I arenβt going to go along with the status quo. Enough is enough.β

Chris Rufo wrote βAmericaβs Cultural Revolutionβ last year as a warning to conservatives about the radical Leftβs takeover of institutionsβfrom business and government to education and entertainment. In addition to being an exposΓ©, it also served as a call to action.
Now, a year later, Rufo is optimistic that Americans, including some to left of center politically, are βwaking up.β He attributes the change to the gruesome and deadly Oct. 7, 2023, attack by Hamas and the Leftβs unflinching (and often antisemitic) criticism of Israel that followed.
βAfter 10/7, when those same people who were marching for [Black Lives Matter], who were pushing trans in schools, who were ramping up DEI, when theyβre out there celebrating the terrorists who butchered, raped, and murdered innocent people, I think it caused this moment of horror, but also this moment of clarity,β Rufo told The Daily Signal.
The popular writer, filmmaker, and activistβwhose work is available at ChristopherRufo.comβwas in Washington, D.C., last week to accept The Heritage Foundationβs prestigious Salvatori Prize.
Listen to the interview on βThe Daily Signal Podcastβ or read an edited and abridged transcript below.
Rob Bluey: Itβs almost a year since you published βAmericaβs Cultural Revolution.β It was a call to action for Americans to wake up to whatβs going on in the Marxist ideology thatβs infused so many of the institutions in this country. Do you feel that people are heeding that call today?
Chris Rufo: I think so. You always want a greater number of people to heed the call.
The story that I told in the book was certainly revealed to be true at the time, but it took on a new dimension following the Hamas terror attack on Oct. 7 of last year. That has just accelerated this waking up that is happening in the United States, and in particular on the center-left. A lot of people who would say, βOh, woke is so overblown, itβs not so bad. DEI [diversity, equity, and inclusion] is good. Maybe itβs not perfect, but maybe we can improve it.β But those were rationalizations.
And after 10/7, when those same people who were marching for BLM, who were pushing trans in schools, who were ramping up DEI, when theyβre out there celebrating the terrorists who butchered, raped, and murdered innocent people, I think it caused this moment of horror, but also this moment of clarity, βOh, all of that leads to this.β
Iβve never seen anything like it. Youβre seeing a lot of shift right now, not just in public opinion, but in political alliances. Youβre seeing a shift in financing people pulling back from giving money to universities, including the Ivy League universities.
Bluey: Kevin Roberts, president of The Heritage Foundation, says that heβs very optimistic that the American people will take back their country from the elites that have set us down this path.
Rufo: Thatβs the right attitude. Thatβs what I love about Kevin. Maybe itβs a Texas thing, a little Alamo spirit, but I share the same conviction.
And look, a lot of people on our side are down in the dumps. Theyβre demoralized, theyβre feeling pessimistic. We all feel that at times, of course, but we have to also have some greater historical perspective and read the history of the founding, read the history of the Civil War, read the history of the Second World War, read the history of the β60s and β70s. Weβve been through much more difficult challenges in the past.
The question is, can we meet the standard of the past? Thatβs the real question. Itβs a question of our own culture, our own spirit, our own character.
I certainly feel doubts about that sometimes. Even in the pre-revolutionary period, the Patriots of the American Revolution doubted themselves the whole time. Even in January of 1776, all of the smart opinion in the Colonies was that most Americans did not want revolution. Most Americans did not want to separate from Britain. Most Americans would refuse to participate.
History is full of surprises, and I hope that weβre fortunate again, as weβve been so many times in our past.
Bluey: You recently hosted a conversation with some individuals who go by pseudonyms who have been doxxed by what you call the left-wing smear machine that is quite coordinated in some of its activities. But you also sounded somewhat hopeful that maybe things were changing in that regard.
Rufo: Absolutely, yes. Thereβs a whole range of reputational destruction mechanisms and some of them are formalized, like the SPLC [Southern Poverty Law Center], for example, which is kind of a sham organization that would try to put you on a list and refer you to law enforcement for protesting a school career. Theyβve run out of actual true hate groups. So, they have now labeled everything a hate group. Itβs absurd.
But then down to the doxxing. A lot of people online want to maintain pseudonyms. Again, America has a long tradition of pseudonyms. The Founders wrote under pseudonyms for many of their works. Thomas Paine wrote anonymously βCommon Sense,β which is the kind of literary work that helps spark the revolution. And then, as now, unmasking people as a way to put them toward reputational destruction. There are even more personal tactics to intimidate you, harass you, whatever.

But if youβre in politics or in the political world, we now have the tools, and we have now the support where some of these reputational attacks can be successfully countered.
Bluey: What keeps you going? You are sometimes outgunned 100 to 1, 500 to 1, maybe more, and yet it doesnβt seem to deter you.
Rufo: I love it. I enjoy it. I love the challenge. I enjoy the fight. I savor victories when they come and then I try to learn from defeats, which are inevitable. But I love the process and I enjoy the drama. I enjoy the conflict. All the things that youβre supposed to not like about politics.
The longer that Iβve been studying it and then participating in it, I realized that, actually, that is kind of the core of political life. And for whatever reason, Iβm suited to it. And I find it to be an intellectual challenge, emotionally challenging, professionally challenging. Itβs challenging from a business perspective. Of course, I run my own little shop as well as partnerships with these great institutions. And so, every day is an immense challenge, and the odds are often stacked against you. And that, for me, is an ideal environment.
Itβs an environment that I love and I hope that it also inspires others. And I know that it has inspired many others to kind of follow suit and to try to really get in the fray.
The other thing that has been helpful is understanding that politics hasnβt really changed in a long time. And so, Iβm realizing over the last few years, itβs like, all right, I have many flaws and many limitations, but I maybe have one gift. And itβs in the art of rhetoric, broadly speaking.
And so, Iβve been reading a lot of the old works from Greece and Rome about rhetoric, and it could have been written yesterday. Itβs amazing. Youβre reading Aristotleβs Treatise on Rhetoric and you say, βThis is incredible.β Itβs like nothing has changed. These guys were going down and they were duking it out intellectually in the Agora or in Rome, in the senate.
And, of course, they have grandeur that we donβt have. We live in a different era, but you get a sense in participating in something greater, youβre participating in a tradition that weβve had in the West. For me, that is also a source of joy, a source of sustenance.
Bluey: With that being said, is there a particular goal that you have for 2024 or something that youβre working on, an objective that our audience may be able to support what youβre doing?
Rufo: Iβm still finishing up this campaign to abolish DEI, which we launched last year. Thatβll take me through the summer. The 18-month campaign cycle is probably the max, where after that, you start to lose effectiveness.
My goal is always to launch campaigns, entrepreneurial, from scratch, and then hand them off to others once theyβre well developed. Launching critical race theory, launching trans ideology in schools, launching abolish DEI, launching this campaign against Harvard. Now others have taken up the mantle on many of those campaigns.
I feel like almost like a venture capital investor, startup operator. The startup phase is exciting. I like it. And then I hand it over when these campaigns are mature.
Iβll tell you, though, I donβt know whatβs next. I know that weβre going to wind down abolish DEI. I do know that Iβll be hiring some additional staff in the coming months, but coming up with a campaign is not a work of mathematics. Itβs a work of art. And so, part of the artistic process is the mystery of inspiration. I know that is maybe contrary to some other organizations that are a bit more logical, a bit more rational.
I tell my funders and supporters, like, βAlright, supporters want to support the work.β And I say, βWell, whatβs the next thing?β Itβs like, I donβt know, weβll figure it out. But something will happen. And part of the success in political activism is sensing opportunity. Some of the best campaigns kind of emerged spontaneously or emerged by accident. Like a novelist or writer, sometimes youβre just waiting for that moment of inspiration.
Thereβs no end point to politics. I know that as long as Iβm alive, there will be something to think about, something to fight about, something to work on. Itβs just a matter of time before the next thing comes up.
Bluey: What are some of the ways that you would encourage people to follow your work or financially support you?
Rufo: Follow @realChrisRufo on X. Follow christopherrufo.com. On Substack, small supporters can become paid subscribers, $8 a month or $80 a year. We have a huge and growing audience there. And philanthropic donors can reach out to me. Thereβs a contact form on my site.
On the support side, itβs been really unreal. We have incredible people in our country that want to see success. And I actually donβt do any outbound fundraising. I donβt do any solicitation. I donβt do any calls. But people have just come out of the woodwork saying, βHey, I love what youβre doing. I want to support it.β Thatβs a very encouraging sign because what it shows is that there are people around the country that have the sophistication, the means, the inspiration, the capacity. They want to see something better.
The voting public, if you measure public opinion, has the right idea on many, many issues, if not most issues. The limitation is not the public. The limitation is not the funders or the philanthropists.
Iβm sure anyone in this world can grumble about specifics, but actually, limitation is us as political leaders, as intellectual leaders, as movement leaders. Iβm more and more convinced that the raw materials are there. Itβs really up to us to shape them, to direct them, to point them in the right place, and to mobilize people in the most effective way possible. And so that, to me, is the big limitation right now. And a limitation is just another word for a challenge.
Thereβs a rich vein of opportunity there. It really is truly a rich vein. How do we get these? I mean, Hillsdale College is incredible, the Manhattan Institute, The Heritage Foundation, a whole range of other groups. We have brilliant people, we have great supporters, and now itβs time for action. And thatβs really what Iβm hoping that weβre driving toward.
Bluey: Whatβs holding us back then? Do you think that thereβs an impediment, or is there a challenge that you want to leave us with and our audience?
Rufo: Yes, there are many challenges. Conservative institutions have to radically modernize the way they approach politics. They have to have an understanding of how media works in the 21st century. They have to have an understanding of how politics works.
We have to reconnect with the essence of political life, and we have to understand politics for what it is. We have to really refine our rhetorical sensibilities. β¦ And then, of course, translate into administrative success. Weβre actually fairly well there. But the rhetorical part is really the missing element on the Right.
If you actually look at the great political leaders in historyβfrom the Greeks and Romans to the American Founders, to [Abraham] Lincoln, to, I mean, even in a less classical way, but of course, [Ronald] Reaganβthey were very serious about rhetoric.
I actually think that that is the missing link. And rhetoric in a postmodern environment means media activism, mass persuasion, elite influence, digital communications, all of those five areas are how modern rhetoric plays out. If we can really radically modernize on those five practices, everything that we do could be much more successful.
