It’s not enough to vote these coup plotters out or just let them retire peacefully.

No, this time they need to be severely punished for their evil treason. Now they need to pay the ultimate price.

In Michigan, where Trump recently endorsed a primary challenger to veteran GOP Rep. Fred Upton and picked favorites in two other state races, the former president’s influence is already being felt.

“His early endorsements have had an instant impact inside Michigan political circles, raising some from completely unknown status into candidates to be reckoned with,”

A happy story. Here's hoping for a happy ending: Fred Upton has to find work in the dreaded private sector. Maybe he could get a job in an incandescent lightbulb factory.

Not, ‘Do you believe in smaller government? Do you support law enforcement? Do you believe in lower regulations?’ Instead, it’s, ‘Are you with me?’”

Is that the same Fred Upton that co-authored the incandescent lightbulb ban? Why yes, yes it is. And I thought elephants were supposed to have long memories.

No, its do you believe in America First or not, and if you sat by a let, (or were even actively involved in) the theft an election occur, all your other stands are meaningless, because you do not care about America at all.

Stuff it.

Looking at this statement glass half full it shows the “average Republican voter” can actually think for themselves. This compared to the “average demoKrat voter” who has no capacity to think for themselves and just takes their marching orders and moves forward.

In this case, dissention is a good thing

Because we all know when the GOP has/had power to change the dynamic they were "warriors" for conservative ideas/ideals...and not just getting paid to do the bidding of THEIR globalist puppet-masters. /s

Dissension? Hardly. The VAST majority of those who typically support the Right agree with Trump and disagree with the RINO Establishment. The RINO Establishment is in trouble. Right of center/Republican candidates are not.

Notice Gonzalez is “retiring”?
Notice Thune is talking about “retiring”?
Notice the Georgia assistant Governor “retiring”?

Notice where Herschel Walker and Vernon Jones and Ted Budd and Mo Brooks and Sarah Huckabee are in the polls?

Notice where Kemp and Ratburger and Cheney and Murkowski are in the polls?

RINOs are going to be punished severely for their backstabbing and support for the Steal.

Trump is attempting to clarify where the current GOP stands. Does it stand with the people or does it stand with the entrenched special interests that have dominated Washington in total disregard of their constituents. It is the GOP establishment that is attempting to confuse the voters, hoping that the same do-nothings that dominate the GOP now are returned to their nice cushy assignments rubber stamping whatever the open borders, and CRT theorists want to foist upon us.

What have conservatives gained by electing Democrats in Republican clothing? We’ve gained the loss of conservative oversight and the inability to pass conservative legislation.

Throw them out.

This idiot along with so many other Rhinos and those on the Left like to think that Trump is the problem. What they are too stupid or blind to see is that Trump is not stoking anything, he is simply putting voice to what millions of us think and feel and have for many many years. The Republican Party of Rhinos has for decades used the old “vote for me cause the other guy is worse” campaign strategy or the speak like a conservative while campaigning but once elected, act and vote like a liberal and not fight for conservative ideals strategy. Trump has simply given us a long missing voice.

“said Georgia GOP Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan, a Trump critic”

There is a reason this A-hole is not running for re-election. He can hang out with turncoat Speedy Gonzalez from Ohio.

<>For the sake of the future of our country.<>

Unless President Trump can bring about reform of our corrupt ruling institutions, the memory of his efforts and accomplishments will soon dissolve.

That’s why PDJT should champion the Article V Convention of States movement.
