A former housing official who served under the Trump administration launched a campaign last week for the U.S. House, entering a race where he will attempt to primary a fellow Republican representing a district in West Michigan.
Republican John Gibbs is running against freshman U.S. Rep. Peter Meijer (R-MI), who voted to impeach President Donald Trump on a charge of inciting insurrection after an unruly mob stormed the U.S. Capitol in January.

And Upton is considering retirement.
We MUST eject the Assistant Democrats.
We have a LOT of it to do.
145 House members voted for Liz Cheney in February to lead them.
You don’t get new leadership until you change a majority of the members.
Maybe Upton’s and Meijer’s seats will be largely consolidated in the -1 Mich. redistricting.
Meijer is a super squish cuck RINO assistant democrat. He’s wealthy so he has no real understanding of his constituents.
West Michigan is very conservative so I’m gonna be interested to see what happens there.

The process is the punishment. Even if the challenge is ultimately unsuccessful, you’ve cost the incumbent hours of time and thousands upon thousands of dollars.
Attrition, see War of,
Gee-whiz! Is there no one good enough to run R anymore?
There seems to be nothing but dems in sheep’s clothing.
President Trump was the last real R.
Good, get that jerk out of there. 🙂
This should be ‘PAR for the course’ from now on, as in Primary All RINOs! Also the alt-far-left say doxxing is wrong then do it anyway to us. I read an article over at TheCollegeFix about how, “School board president allegedly kept files on ‘lunatic, psycho’ parents “, so give that a look. What is good for the parental goose is good for the communist school board president gander. We can save our Republic but it does involve staring down the devil.
Cheney, Pence, Romney and all of the rest. We don’t need them. They are leeches.
YES, let’s attrition them!
Two of my kids live in that district and take my guidance when they vote. It won’t be Meijer
There are only a few plays in the Democrat play book but they are all wildly successful.
1. Infiltrate the Republican party with Democrats who pose as Republicans (we call them RINOs).
2. Accuse Republican candidates of racism or of having inappropriate relationships with women.
3. Cheat like hell.
Attrition works.
Sen. elect Durr in NJ managed to wage a successful campaign on less than $200. The politicians realize that and will spend princely sums to stay in office. An insurgent campaign is under a different dynamic and need not spend anywhere near what an incumbent will. The name of the game then is prompting as much of an overreaction as possible.
Meijer might be a great supermarket (my friend in Michigan say it is good), but Peter isn’t 🤓
Gibbs is being inserted by the MI GOP swamp. He has not been a person residing in the district. The other Candidate Tom Norton was not the swamps pick last time around, they backed sitting house member Lynn Affendoulis, and she was trounced by Meijer. Norton has strong support in the 3rd district and has been polling well and trounced Gibbs in a poll over the weekend ran by Gibbs consultants. Norton is the President of the Michigan Conservative Union. Gibbs is being pushed by MI GOP insiders. Carpetbaggers do not do well in any district.
