Delaware Political Weekly: Week Ending Feb. 5, 2026
“We are kings of our bikes. So, we are again really lucky to live in Rehoboth, when we park a car, we have to get back into the car. We can hop on our bikes and our ritual is that we are always biking from our home to L(ewe)s. We do a little bit of walking around, a little bit of margarita, a little bit of good food – there’s amazing food then bike right back. So the ritual, on our bikes, every chance we can, any place we can go, and eliminate the cars.”–Dan Cruce.
1. Will THIS GUY be the Rethug Candidate For US Senate? The Rethug monicker certainly applies:
Delaware Native
Dedicated over 28 years to defending American interests abroad and leading Soldiers at home.
Leadership Experience
Citizen Soldier from Tank Platoon Leader in South Korea, Planner in Iraq, Brigade Command in Iowa, U.S.-Russia talks in Geneva, and AI-Data policy at the Pentagon.
Education
BS in Aviation Computer Science from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University and Masters in International Relations from the University of Oklahoma. Graduate of the U.S. Army War College.
His Platform–Trumpian All The Way. Some samples:
Stabilize the dollar, root out fraud-waste-abuse, and slash energy regulations to lower the price of gas, groceries, and transport – attacking inflation at the source. Per President Trump’s plan, cap credit card rates at 10%.
Using federal incentives and conditioning certain federal funds, eliminate residential property taxes and all inheritance taxes to preserve family wealth and inter-generational stability, shift the tax burden away from home owners to tariffs.
Unleash American oil, natural gas, and coal (“Drill, Baby, Drill”); fund a Manhattan-style program for a high-energy industrial and manufacturing superpower and to also power an AI and Bitcoin economy.
End the crypto crackdown; defend the right to self-custody and mine; and establish a Strategic National Bitcoin Stockpile to serve as a hedge against inflation and a defensive asset for national financial security and thermodynamic, digital defense against malign AI algorithms.
Ban taxpayer funding for gender transition surgeries; keep men out of women’s sports; promote fatherhood and family flourishing through child tax credits and pro-family zoning laws.
There’s more, but I’ve seen enough. Bet you have too.
He’s also running against the ‘leftists’ who control the Delaware Democratic Party. Raising the question, has he ever met Chris Coons?
2. There IS no #2. No filings, no new committees, no nothing. Hey, I can only work with the material that presents itself to me.
That’s all I’ve got this week. What’d I miss, and whaddayathink?
Ideology not withstanding, this guy makes Chris Coons look like a sniveling pussy. Id love see a “real man” progressive challenger for Chris.
You can say all sorts of things when you know you’re going to lose the general. He’s just trying to win the primary.
To each their own, but I think we’ve had quite enough of “real men.” They should all go down to the gym and pump each other.
BTW, Al (not A I) informs me that there is another (alleged) R in the race. Alleged as in he once was elected to office as a Democrat, and he has run as an independent as well.
We’re talkin’ Dr. Mike Katz.
Hey, if you’ve got nothing better to do with your time…
