What Ed Vidal refuses to acknowledge in his counterview article today is the massive cheating that obviously occurred nationwide in the midterm elections. Today, the absurd race in Arizona was certified by Maricopa County. Kari Lake did not lose; she was robbed. The whole world knows it. No serious person could say or think otherwise.
Exceptionally however, Florida was allowed (yes, I think that’s the right word) to go full “red wave”. DeSantis won by a massive margin, and even Rubio, who everyone thought was vulnerable, won by a country mile. And yet in almost every other state, the races were tight.
How come? Well, here, for what it’s worth, is my theory. To accept it, you have to accept that Congress is just elite theater, and that there really is a “Uniparty”. If you do, all will make sense.
The main thing the Uniparty leaders from both sides are completely united on is their absolute hatred of Trump. Of all the players on the US political stage, he has been the only one who has, not always successfully perhaps, refused to play the Uniparty game, and who has, moreover, tried to wake the electorate up to it. He is too wealthy to be bought, and apparently too clean to be blackmailed or successfully charged & convicted. They cannot control him, and he has given widespread life to a constitutionalist, America First patriot constituency -- the MAGA movement.
MAGA is a huge threat to the Uniparty. Its electoral success would upset the cosy congressional apple cart in all sorts of ways. It has proved as hard a nut to crack as Trump.
So, what to do? Well, the solution they’ve come up with to deal both with Trump and MAGA is to find and promote a Trump Lite challenger who could split the MAGA movement and stop a Trump nomination in 2024. Two birds, one stone.
That challenger is, of course, Ron DeSantis. He talks and acts like Trump, except that in key ways he does not, nor ever will. DeSantis, with his Ivy League background, is an establishment man. The Florida GOP and the wider Uniparty know it and trust him ultimately to deliver what they want to a degree they never will trust Trump.
His political promotion as the Trump Lite presidential candidate has involved giving him massive popular credentials as the undisputed leader of the reddest state in the Union (achieved with these elections results), and positioned him as the perfect candidate with popular support sufficient to fight Trump, and appeal to all those Trump supporters who wish he seemed nicer. This has undoubtedly been achieved with the complicity of the Uniparty Democrats, who have, unusually, refrained from applying their electoral cheating methods in full to the Florida races, despite all of us having been convinced that DeSantis & Florida must have a massive target on their metaphorical backs.
So now we can see the setup is almost complete. The likelihood of DeSantis running in ‘24 is virtually certain, and there’s very strong evidence that he will (knowing full well his doing so will badly damage the patriot cause). He has famously refused to commit himself to a full term as Governor, in response to Crist’s only significant question in their debate). He has a massive $150-200 million war chest, clearly intended for a presidential run, and obviously never spent on the primaries. And he will not run as VP on a Trump ticket, mainly (or at least ostensibly) because the 27 Florida Electoral College votes would then have to be forfeited.
One burning question for those of us who have been campaigning for Election Integrity in general, but in Florida in particular, has for the last several months been -- “Why won’t DeSantis or the Florida GOP do anything at all substantive to address the election fraud problems we have clearly identified?”
What measures have been taken have been almost risible -- legislation that has addressed some issues in ways that have created more ambiguity and render them only partially effective (eg: ballot harvesting provisions), the arrest of a very small number of felons, much vaunted in the media as a huge step forward, (when EI volunteers have identified hundreds who have yet even to be investigated), and the establishment with equal fanfare of the Office of Election Security and Crimes, which has so far proved largely toothless, and which still has no replacement for its deceased head, Peter Antonacci.
The DeSantis administration has been presented with credible evidence of hundreds of thousands of fake ballots being harvested at false addresses across the state. Nothing has been done to address the problem. The administration will not even acknowledge the issue.
Both the party and the Governor have seemed to us aligned in their resistance to efforts to persuade them to take action, which is only explicable if one thinks of them as aligned in other ways.
In my opinion, having observed all this at close quarters for months, the reason for this resistance can only be that the GOP and its Uniparty counterparts intend to cheat in the 2024 primaries to endure “their” man, DeSantis, beats Trump and splits the MAGA movement, the greatest popular threat to them in years.
The only person the Uniparty fears is Trump. They do not fear Ron DeSantis.
I do not dislike DeSantis. I dislike his lack of candor on fighting election fraud, and I dislike the monied, cabal interests supporting him.

Ahhh... There it is. I thought the article smelled like dead fish. I see I was right.
Interesting....the trolls we see, here, supporting this drivel.
It would be nice to get back to discussing principles and ideals instead of buzzwords.
Good Lord.
You can do better than these childish, anti-Christian, leftish tactics.
I think it's actually closer to Trump 3.0. Trump 1.0 was his 2016 candidacy, Trump 2.0 was hi Presidency, and Trump 3.0 is the post-election/candidate version we have right now.
Unfortunately, it's feeling kind of like moving from Windows 7 to Windows 8. Not an improvement, but a downgrade.
Good Lord...you are really invoking ALL of the leftist smear attack attemps, Bu∂∂ha.
Your plant traits are showing. And, they aren’t working.
Actually, going by what she's been posting here, I don't think she can. Or won't, which amounts to the same thing in practice.
Great list. Hope Trump shows it against any challenger stating Beat that and then to the voting public. You want more of that elect me
It used to be said that if we could just implement conservativism and let people see how it actually works, they'd like it.
Did you ever consider the possibility that might actually be true? And that what happened to at least some of those Democrat voters is that they saw what DeSantis did, and decided there was a better way than the Democratic Party?
To some you’re either “MAGA” - which for 99% requires slavish adherence to the political fortunes of Trump - or you’re a Uniparty demon.
It would be nice to get back to discussing principles and ideals instead of buzzwords.
MAGA represents 100% America First.
Which, despite your gross Never Trumpness, is NOT “slavish adherence to the political fortunes of Trump”....whatever that inane comment even means....but, adherence to the founding principals of this great nation.....and, NOT to the CCP.
Uniparty represents the NWO/OpenBorders of the CCP owned Biden/McConnell/LyinRyan/Pence, etc., etc.
Please, do tell us...exactly which principals and ideals would you prefer to discuss?
I am curious which ones do NOT align with President Trump’s America First agenda.
“going by what she’s been posting here, I don’t think she can”
It’s a shame, but I agree.
I don’t know ANY Florida Dems (transplants, btw) who voted for Trump, or DeSaintis.
They are family member’s relatives, who will never shed their Dem stripes, regardless of where they keep moving to.
LOL...talk amongst yourselves, NWO/Uniparty BrownChin BUSTED trolls ;-)
But somehow, despite that, he's considered a Uniparty scum simply because he may run against Trump. Which is why I say MAGA, for most, seems to boil down to a slavish adherence to the political fortunes of Donald Trump.
DeSaintis is a Governor.
What America First problems has he actually solved, for our nation’s economy, border, foreign trade...since he’s been ‘in power’?
Which leftist donors are supporting DeSaintis? Follow the money. Because that is who owns him/them.
You’ve got TDS real bad...since you keep referencing ‘slavish adherence’ to President Trump, and his “political fortunes”.
Exactly what are his political fortunes, Uniparty troll?
Now, run back to McConnell, for more of your troll tripe.
Obviously, you've never worked with the Obama 2008 Vote Fraud Detection tool.
BTW - the tool showed me that one county [Sumter] didn't get The DeSantis Memo... 
Florida 2022: Where Have All The Democrat "Voters" Gone, Long Time Passing?
https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/4109638/posts
I think that Ron DeSantis is a great guy.
But, he has the taint of being the apparent choice of Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell.
You see, my Obama 2008 Vote Fraud Detection tool has shown me exactly what's going on with The Backstab Party.
Been voting Republican since 1994 [after Perot 1].
I'm done with them - especially since the 2024 "elections" are going to get rigged, again, and we'll get Republican po-mouths telling us that there wasn't any vote fraud.
Until we get a handle on the VBM , vote by mail, election month for Dems and one day for us , it doesn’t matter who is on the top of the ticket Trump, or DeSantis they will lose.
Dems collect ballots from Dems for a month-sort of legal cheating-plus it allows the other kind of cheating-
“And he will not run as VP on a Trump ticket, mainly (or at least ostensibly) because the 27 Florida Electoral College votes would then have to be forfeited. ”

Nonsense, there is a very easy workaround: one of them officially moves out of FL. Cheney did this a couple of DAYS before being nominated for Veep by fellow Texan GW Bush. Cheney “moved” back to Wyoming. Trump has a home in NYC, and a posh golf resort in NJ (undoubtedly with some living quarters), so he could easily leave, just like Cheney. DeSantis wouldn’t and shouldn’t leave FL.
Of course, The Donald could also move to Texas, a state with no income tax, and we would welcome him.
Yeah, those trolls are all over twitter too. Musk has sicced the Trump army on them and it’s a sight to see.
