From the article:

“The result of these efforts is that Election Day no longer really exists as a day when the votes are cast and counted.”

With all due respect to the author, Election Day has never been about the casting and counting of ballots. It is the Electoral College who elects the President, not We the People. Now in theory the Electoral College has a duty to consider the wishes of the people, but there have been elections where the popular vote winner did not become President. The danger in that is a party that can consistently win by minority rule quickly loses its incentive to serve the majority of the people. They forget to dance with the one that brought them.

Now look at the state of the modern GOP, which has held the White House for the last 3 out of 5 presidential terms, despite having only won the popular vote once. Trump’s border wall, supposed to be completed and paid for by Mexico by now? Not completed. Reducing our national deficit and thus our dependence on China? Our deficit shot up to $1 trillion before COVID reached American shores. Lower taxes? My taxes went up during Trump’s term.

The GOP was a necessary vehicle to elect Trump, but it has outlived its usefulness. Time to break away and form our own MAGA party, which will peel off enough disaffected Democrats to win the popular vote as well as the Electoral College vote. Leave the Chamber of Commerce types to the GOPe.

**By now it should be obvious - even to conservatives - that we are in a war. It is a conflict that began nearly fifty years ago when the street revolutionaries of the Sixties joined the Democrat Party. Their immediate goal was to help the Communist enemy win the war in Vietnam.....**

This article lost me with its opening lie. I was one of the people whom the mob-controlled Johnson administration tried to force death upon in southeast asia. Vietnam was controlled by the mob, and the mob was conscripting Vietnamese sons and daughters into prostitution and drug profiteering. So I was expected to sacrifice my life for this cause.

F____ that. I didn’t and don’t care who the enemy was, I won’t and wouldn’t sacrifice my life for such as cause. If this writer wanted a different outcome then he shouldn’t have sided with a morally bankrupt cause.

Ga just refuses to fix the residency rule. That tells me the fix is in the rats are taking the Senate. Mitch and the boys thought they got what they wanted and let the rats steal the election and get rid of Trump while they got to keep the Senate. Well the idiots are about to become a permanent minority party.

A man who has nothing which he is willing to fight for, nothing which he cares about more than he does about his personal safety, is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free, unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself. -- John Stuart Mill, writing on the U.S. Civil War in 1862

Cowards have a million excuses.

>> Republicans, and conservatives generally, are too cowardly to confront [the Rats]

That would be the RINOs and the likes of Kristol, Will, Bolton — the old “guard”.

Regardless of the 2020 outcome, we’re 70+ million strong and more importantly aware.

With our cowardly RINO party, sheesh, good luck with that.

That assumes we're going to keep relying on them rather than fix the problems by any means necessary ourselves.

Its a one sided war......and has been going on for a long time. The left has agendas which they have been moving forward. This did not stop when Trump was elected. In this kind of war, the enemy is not destroyed.

The closest thing I experienced to action on our side was the tea party. But unlike the left, we don’t carry on.

The things we do.... such as listen to talk shows....do not move our program ahead. We are not agenda driven.

The outcome doesn’t look good to me.

What amazes me is that there are so many “conservatives” continuing to rally behind the feckless GOP. Many here on FR.

Quit supporting the lessor of two evils and do something different for a change. I have been waiting over 50 years, as I was in my early 20’s during the Viet Nam protests, for Conservatives to actually get their hands dirty and take it to the streets. I quit holding my breath, obviously, many years ago.

You should know. Where was your moral ouutrage about Americans killing people half way around the world to impose the mob’s rule? They lost control of Cuba because they were, hello, the mob.

Strange isn’t it how the “New Deal” socialist Johnson administration somehow chose to oppose socialism in Vietnam? They even assassinated two presidents to do it, Kennedy and Diem. Vietnam wasn’t about socialism until Johnson’s mob made it be about socialism.

Some of the witnesses signing affidavits provided to Rudy, et al., attesting to blatant election fraud were Democrats. So not all of them. But those with their hands on the lever of power within the party decided to do that in six states. Those must be identified and hung.

Pic of POTUSDJT is spot on. John Paul Jones lives in him.

We are supine, hoping that a few lawyers will do some magic lawfare on our behalf, and that the SCOTUS will pluck a victory for Trump out of their hats. Maybe next week. This is only Monday, almost three weeks since the election.

True that. I've been waiting for a silver bullet since russia gate. We have been pacified by our betters that it is coming, but it never does.

I even worry about Pres Trump and family once he DOES get out of office. Am I being ultra paranoid??
