I’ve been on FR for several years.
I am seeing my country being destroyed.
When living as long as I have.. I take the position I have earned the position of senior. Life teaches us.. and I am seeing younguns vote dem.. THAT’S THE ENEMY! Dont vote your own destruction!!

There used to be democrats and Republicans. The gop has turned into patsies for the dem party that become Communism party.

Are we Bible people? Do we know what it says? Do we believe there is an entity with a goal to kill steal and destroy..

Well.. you are seeing it..you are feeling it .. you are in a war with it.. if you don’t wise up....
Voting in a dem is voting your own destruction.
I am weary of walking on eggs....

How many other republicans emptied their war chests or raised money for Masters? How much did the RNCC put into Blake Master’s war chest? How many ads did they buy? Have you fallen into the MSM cherrypicking trap? It’s so easy to blame Trump instead of leadership. So easy to join the MSM/DNC Trump bashing. See post 49 for some reality.

All those die hard RATs in Miami Dade and Palm Beach county rolled GOP this time. Gave it all up and ditched the Democrats. /s

Actually they gave up nothing, the real reason is that DeSantis fired the Dade County Election Supervisor and put in someone that believes in election integrity.

Dade was able to count votes in hours and did not wait until after the Panhandle closed (an hour later) to turn in results. Florida went from Purple to Deep Red in one election cycle.

No cheating and republicans win. It is simple. However, both Republicans and Democrats do not want the voters to have control and allow wholesale cheating.

Binge watching “Homeland” for the first time.

I realize that it is just fiction, (IS IT?)

Who is REALLY in charge? It’s NOT the voters.

Thank you for your opinion on this matter. Incidentally, I do not care one tiny bit about your opinions but thank you for offering them. “NPC” haha, you’re so hip to the kid’s lingo! Your grandkids teach you that term?

“Wow. The Post going all in Interesting.”

Isn’t the NY Post owned by the Murdoch’s? Yeah, the Murdoch’s are all in on Trump going away, so this isn’t really ‘news’.

I don’t disagree with a lot of what you said — including sometimes the “not so bright” comment. But for all of what Trump is and for all of what he’s done in his first term, he won’t win in ‘24. If there’s any lesson to be learned by this year’s defeat, it’s that.

So you can nominate a candidate who is close to what you’re looking for and who could win…

…or you can settle for another four years of Biden or eight of Newsom.

The stakes are too high for displacing strategic reason for idolatry…

Anyone who doesn’t believe Trump played a role in this defeat has their head in the sand.

- - -

Trump is pure, perfect and blameless always and forever. He just happens to be surrounded by lesser beings such as EVERYONE ELSE in the GOP, who constantly work against him. That is the only logical explanation.

(Did I do that right?)

I don’t want to hear it Mitch...

You spent how many tens if not 100’s of Millions pushing OZ, and absolute CRAP candidate... and you can’t blame Trump for the house underperformance.

The “its all Trump’s fault” is nonsense.

GOP did not press its advantage, and its ground game was a joke... Relied entirely on huge ad buys and nagging texts, rather than actually going out and getting out the vote in person.

GOP Establishment utterly crapped the bed.

Yes, Trump has some culpability in this too, but to try to lay the blame for the mess as just 1 person or 1 item is nonsense.

There were failures, tactical, and systemic all around this election made by the GOP... and until folks are willing to accept that, nothing is going to change.

NeverTrumpers are going to want the narrative to be its Trump’s fault... and that’s naive and stupid, but they want him gone, and will present any narrative needed to get him gone.

Require all absentee ballots to be at the precinct or ward by the time the polls close and counted that evening or next morning-no stopping until all the votes are counted, tallied, and secured.

I tried, tried, tried to tell folks the truth about OZ and how absolutely crap he was and how he had no chance of winning... and I was attacked by folks who just listened to the flappy lipped pundits who LIED and sold them the absolute lie that he could win...

Only reason OZ only lost by 3 instead of 6-8 is because Fetterman had a stroke.

How many 10s if not 100s of Millions did the GOP waist pushing the RINO, GLOBALIST, CARPETBAGGING FRAUD named OZ?? Money that almost certainly could have helped win other races? Just thrown away on a candidate who never had any prayer of winning.

I hope the folks who were fooled by listening to the mush brained parrots like Hannity and other who fed you lies about Oz being a great candidate, will be wiser next election.

This is PA.. you don’t win statewide as a Republican with a Weak or Mediocre candidate, period.. the math doesn’t allow it

You want to win a high profile statewide race in PA as a republican, you better be a GREAT candidate... Dems can run a lousy candidate and win... GOP cannot.

All absentee ballots are required to be received by election day in PA.. not postmarked... received...

PA wasn’t lost due to fraud, it was lost because the GOP ran a crap candidate... Run a crap candidate get a crap result.

Trump did have a really big role in the underperformaing midterms: by winning the presidency mainly without and against both US and world elites, and by governing in many instances against their policies, he aroused them (and their functionaries including politicians and political machines of both US major political parties, the media, and people in all levels and types of government “service”) to greater action.

Getting the grass roots to dump Trump is a major short-term goal for the elites - “his kind must not rise again” - hence the virtually unison voice of US major media and their pundits excitedly blaming Trump for midterm underperformance (which all of them were hoping for anyway) and coining such terms as “Trump’s reverse Midas touch.”

“See, your champion has failed. Come back to us” they say.

Maybe the middle and lower classes who benefited during Trump’s term are swayed by this.

Maybe not.
