Enthusiasm for GOP candidates in the 2022 midterm elections outpaces Democrats by double digits, while most GOP voters remain loyal to former President Donald Trump, according to a new poll reported by the Washington Examiner.

Futile enthusiasm is still enthusiasm. Its2 just more detached from reality compared to enthusiasm that actually has a chance.

There is no such thing as an anti-Trump Conservative.

Won't matter anyhow. The leftist marxist cheating machine will be well oiled for 22, and 24.

“unenthusiastic” votes, however, count just as much as “enthusiastic” votes...

Most of us think elections are worthless. How is that for enthusiasm?

“What seems to be uniting Republicans the most, according to the poll? Opposition to Black Lives Matter, Antifa, and preventing discrimination against white people.”

The GOP ain’t touching any of that. Granted, this is a Leftist scare poll, but it’s probably more accurate than what most mainstream polling says.

Not so fast. Don't get complacent. There are a bunch of RINO establishment that need to be replace d in congress and around the country. That begins with Kevin McCarthy and everyone that voted for Cheney for her to retain the conference chair.
