Not to sound harsh, but if your state party was not paying attention to the state Supreme Court race I personally would be mortified, especially given what happened to you.
In our state the SC is always a very high profiled pitched battle... for one of the exact reasons you point out.
Moreover, we do know from the past how the Soros machine has targeted seemingly sleepy state offices, such as state treasurer or secretary of state, AG, or whatever, because those office holders wee the one’s who ultimately made the final determination on a contested race result, thus allowing the Democrats to cheat more efficiently.
In summary, average citizens should never have to live and breath politics. It’s really not our job and suggests an abnormal society. That’s why we have a constitutional republic and it’s also why state parties exist to take that burden from us and not get caught flat-footed as in PA.
We do have other lives - and if we want to live them in FReedom and under the Constitution, we need to make time to oppose the sleepless other side.
We need Trump to frame November to be a referendum on him. He needs to drive turnout of the deplorables.
Not sure how he would do that, but the deplorable narrative was only good against the politician who uttered it. I don't think it would have the same effect again.
And I don't like an election being about a personality. I want it to be about our Country, what is good for it, what has been done wrong to it, and how we can preserve what is great about it. Also, to define our Country's enemies, particularly those within.
