Good news for obscure Republican candidates! You can get intense glowing coverage from the mainstream media such as CNN but only if you project yourself as anti-Trump. Such was the case with Saturday's special election in the 6th congressional district of Texas. There were 23 candidates in the open primary to fill the seat of former Congressman Ronald Wright who died in February. So guess who CNN focused on?

A lot of anti-Trump Republicans are in for a major shock. The MSM might love them but not the voters. Next anti-Trumper up for the chop is Liz Cheney.

I think anyone that has Kinzinger show up to support him is a moron of epic proportions. Good Lord. Just run as a Democrat and get it over with.

It may come to pass, that the abbreviation “Rep.” will mean “Replacement” for the corrupt and aging RINOs that inhabit Washington now. The Democratic Totalitarians will not likely approve of this new “pronoun”, so to speak.

I’m hoping to see Liz Cheney and Kevin McCarthy lose their current positions in the House, and be relegated to the back of the bus. Listening to War Room today sure got my hopes up.

This might be a way to let CNN help us out.

Run two candidates- one virulently and ridiculously anti-Trump...

CNN will give them 24/7 free coverage, which will, in effect, give the Trump SUPPORTER free media coverage.
