The prospects for a Republican victory in 2022 aren’t looking too shabby. Indeed, the GOP has a considerable chance of retaking both chambers of Congress in the midterm elections if it plays its cards right.
Sure, a GOP triumph is far from guaranteed. The Democrats still have political weapons to wield against the right, and they have been using these cudgels as well as they can manage.
The Jan. 6 riots at the U.S. Capitol building will continue to dog the Republican Party for as long as the Democrats can focus the nation’s attention on the incident. So far, the Democrats and their close friends and allies in the activist media have done as much as they could to keep the fracas in national discourse for as long as possible.
Indeed, it was only recently that it was announced that the National Guard would finally be removing its troops from the Capitol. Anyone with an IQ of a gnat could easily see that the only reason why troops remained stationed in the area for almost five months was that the Democrats were using them as political props to make it seem as if crazed MAGA zealots were salivating at the thought of causing another kerfuffle in Washington, D.C. (See: The Left Is Finally Finished Using the National Guard as Political Propaganda)
It is also worth noting that the left and its Never Trump comrades are still spinning the fairy tale that former President Donald Trump incited the riots and are using this lie to smear the non-establishment faction of the conservative movement.
Even further, the Democrats are still using their usual race-baiting tactics to paint anyone who doesn’t agree with them as mindless bigots who seek to oppress people of color. Nothing surprising there, right? This has become par for the course on the left.
But on the other hand, the Democrats have much that can be used against them, media spin notwithstanding. After only five months into his term, it is becoming increasingly apparent that Biden’s presidency is an unmitigated disaster. His administration currently has a disturbing number of crises on its hands and it does not seem up to the task of resolving these issues.
Firstly, we have the migrant crisis that Biden caused by essentially sending the message to migrants that they would be given the red carpet treatment if they made the dangerous trek to America’s southern border. So far, over 100,000 unaccompanied minors have taken the journey along with adults who are attempting to gain entry legally and illegally. The administration has not made any significant progress in addressing this particular issue.
To make matters worse, jobs numbers are still in the toilet. As we saw last week, the unemployment rate ticked up as the Democrats’ continuing COVID unemployment benefits incentivize Americans to stay home instead of going back to work. Small businesses are suffering because they are unable to hire workers due to the continued welfare assistance at the state and federal levels.
Moreover, the Biden administration is being hit by both sides over its response to the violence between Israel and Hamas. While the two entities eventually agreed to a ceasefire, the president’s weak reaction to the situation left much to be desired.
And this is not counting the future crises that will pop up between now and 2022. Remember, we are only five months into Biden’s presidency and he has already shown a heartbreaking level of ineptitude as has his team, including alleged border czar Vice President Kamala Harris who hasn’t bothered to even visit the border two months after being tasked with handling the migrant crisis.
However, as stated previously, GOP success in 2022 is not guaranteed. Here’s what the Republican Party must do to ensure victory: Don’t be as stupid as the Democrats.
That’s it.
No seriously, it’s really that simple.
All the GOP has to do is keep from rivaling the left in stupidity and craziness. Yes, there are nuts on both sides of the political aisle. But if the Republicans are diligent about pointing out the Democrats’ numerous failures and their efforts to propose ineffectual big government programs as solutions, they will have won half the battle. They must also sell the benefits of conservatives’ solutions to the problems that many Americans face instead of focusing only on being the opposition.
It ain’t hard, folks.
But if you have been a conservative for as long as I have, you have already seen that the GOP can easily snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. This is why we must continue impressing upon our leaders that they need to push the agenda for which they were elected. Right now, the Democrats are attempting to ram through as much far-leftist policy as they can while they have control of both chambers of Congress and the White House. It will only get worse if they aren’t stopped in 2022.

THE RIGHT CARD TO PLAY IS TO MAKE SURE THAT THE ELECTION SYSTEM THAT IS CURRENTLY IN PLACE ( THE ONE THAT CHEATED TRUMP OUT OF HIS VICTORY ) IS GOTTEN RID OF. OTHERWISE, REPUBLICANS WILL NEVER WIN ANOTHER ELECTION AGAIN !!
If states cheat, use foreign servers and block observers, then it doesn’t matter what we do short of a civil war.
I'm not holding my breath.

Indeed
So the one simple thing became a long discussion of many things with 1 thing hidden in it which really didn’t amount to much.
Unless Dominion Machines are tossed into a dumpster, ‘mail in voting’ is eliminated and the voting rolls on EVERY SINGLE VOTER ROLL is scrubbed/cleaned up/verified, there is about zero chance of Republicans winning anything worthwhile in 2022 or 2024.
If the machines and mail in voting aren’t eliminated about the only other thing that could allow them to win is to mandate that no results are tabulated or presented to the public until all precincts are closed, ballots are sent to a secure location and counted the next day or two. And absolutely no boxes of ballots can be ‘found’ or ‘added’ after the fact.
You do something like that, there might be a chance. Because their only option would be to stuff the ballot box with so many fraudulent ballots that it would become unreasonable for anyone to agree with the results.
If they don’t make a top priority to stop cheating.
01-06-2021 will only be an even more confirmed unarmed mistake.
The RNC needs to fire Rhonna Romney McDaniel. She is trash and a liability.
Heavy Sigh,,
The soap box is censored
The ballot box ( Dominion) is rigged
And the cartridge box
( military defending Constitution )
was purged first week of obanations first term and is busy mutilating it’s genitals.
We have zero box’s left.
We go to voter i.d. , purple fingers and supervised hand count or this country is over.
Jmho
Bkmk
Bush league chamber of commerce worshipping republiCANT’S need to be defeated at all costs.
There should be a wholesale political slaughter of bush league chamber of commerce worshipping republiCANT’S.
Oh, but we will get democommie rule...
We already have that thanks to the bush league chamber of commerce worshipping republiCANT’S...
Short term pain equals long term relief..
“Jan. 6 riots”
Just to set the record straight, Jeff Charles, I have seen no evidence of any riots on Jan. 6, 2021.
Are you perhaps thinking of the trespass into the Capitol building (including some broken glass) by some before the security guards started waving people to enter the building?
Ah, you are not fatoring in the following:
The Mitt Romneys, Paul Ryans, Susan Collins, et., al.
There is a reason they call it the Stupid Party as they almost unfailingly snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
It is a Party of cowards who prefer to be loved and thought well of rather than fight, or even defend themselves.
Those in the Party absolutely prefer to be invited on CNN, The View, MSNBC, or the weekend political shows to get face time, even if it means selling out, by criticizing, other Republicans in exchange for 30 pieces of silver.
We go to voter i.d. , purple fingers and supervised hand count or this country is over.
That’s the only option in town.
Well ... any hopes of victory might as well be dismissed since a good portion of the idiot GOP just voted to have the Commie Gov’t investigate the phony January 6th Trump rally.
When the people you voted for, turn on you and give the enemy the opportunity to politically persecute you ... would you be willing to vote for them again?
I see 2022 as an absolute blood bath and the Repubs will be lucky to hold 160 seats.
The GOP Establishment is not stupid. They are in bed with the Democrats.
Their globalist donors don’t WANT them to win. They want them to “take a dive”.
It’s asking a lot for the GOPe to stop acting like democRATs.
They need to stop the election fraud.
THAT will take back our government.
That’s a FACT!! As long as Ronna remains as GOP Chair....that mob is totally f**ked.
