8:00 - or so - update. My use of the term Judas for Pence has been picked up by a Twitter trend. I don't think I was the first, but I'm getting responses from the other side as I have never gotten them before. It's rather amazing to me, honestly. /1

2) It also gives me a new perspective. I've never had them as my audience before but I imagine I must contemplate how to speak to them too. It is an interesting challenge. One thing I will not do is alter my beliefs or values due to their excoriation. /2

3) Another thing I'll do is note how profoundly the Judas image speaks to them. Once they get passed this moment in time, I suspect they'll come to understand that for us, on our side, Pence being Judas is an inescapable fact. He took 30 silver pieces yesterday without doubt. /3

4) And all of you new anti-fans enjoying your attacks against me, well, hate to disappoint you but I take real joy in your discomfiture over my analysis. It was never meant to persuade you, and I had no idea you'd ever see it. That you do, and respond, pleases me. Thank you. /4

5) I offer only one point of clarification for you. I am over Election 2020, and need not grieve it. I am NOT over the loss of the America I love, and I DO grieve that. And if you're interested, I will be talking about that a good deal in coming days. Come back and have fun! /5

6) Although I will certainly think about you, and am happy to speak to you, you might want to try to understand that I am not here to serve you. I am here to serve the MAGA Movement. We will not go away. Our mission is now only intensified. /6

7) And while you come round to trash me and my ideas, it would be a terrible thing if you bought my book and wrote 1,000s of negative reviews! I command you, do NOT buy my book. But if you brazenly disobey, I will read your negative reviews with delight.

8) To my friends and fellow MAGA Movement members, we could not have known what we were up against from within, until yesterday. A movement needs to find its Judas in order to understand what true opposition actually is. You simply cannot know, beforehand.

9) Opposition is not what all these trendwatching attackers spew with their attacking comments. That's just those words that never hurt us. No, it is Judas Pence who defines the opposition. He betrayed his Constitutional oath and duty to America. That is true opposition.

10) What lies in front of us has been faced many times before by those who gave this land to us. Our founding document is the Declaration of Independence. Its spirit and tone, its abiding principles are ours. It is that set of values that defines us. And there we shall return.
