When I heard the immediate news reports across the board about how Trump endorsed candidates were losing, and given my general distrust of the press, I did some searches for reports on how many Trump endorsed candidates won.
Search results were all articles about how Trump endorsed candidates lost. So I looked at those thinking I would see some numbers such as number lost over the total run. But that critical factoid was missing, interestingly enough, from the ones I checked.
This told me that the fix was in and as I always do with subjects I actually have interest in, I started tabulating my own info based on race results.
One senate race and one house race is still uncallable, so below gives the worst case result (meaning the uncallable races don’t go with the Trump supported candidate)
Here’s the breakdown:
Governor – 9/18 = 50% Senate – 13/18 = 72% House – 97/119 = 81%
Hopefully this would mean he’d get more cooperation instead of back stabbing in congress.
Nevertheless, being that elections often hover around 50/50 results with a 51% win being great, I don’t see the 50% governor bit as a big negative.
This affirms for me that all those reports about how dumb it would be to support Trump because his candidates lose are total BS.
Well Trump last night stayed on script and didn’t mention the 2020 election steal so someone on his staff/family finally realized preaching about that doesn’t sell.
Ignoring the FRAUD machine in your list would be your downfall. NO REPUBLICAN will win MI, PA or AZ ever until the fraud in those states is addressed and dealt with. Fraud is central to the D Team winning those elections.
Just go to ballotpedia for a complete breakdown
https://ballotpedia.org/Endorsements_by_Donald_Trump
(reposting)
straight from ballotpedia:
Trump Endorsements2022
primary endorsements 241 won 93%
General election 254 won 80%
“Of the 176 contested primaries that took place before September 15, 2022, in which Trump endorsed (excluding five races in which candidates didn’t make the ballot), 159 Trump endorsees won and 17 lost. The endorsement success rate in that group of races was 90%.”
Given the Democrats determination to make sure no MAGA ever wins again, that was bound to happen. That's where they are diverting their funds and their fraud.
Abe Hamadeh, the Trump candidate for Arizona AG, hasn’t lost. Kerri Lake did “lose” by 17,000 or 0.6 percent, but her ‘Loss’ may have been caused by telling her supporters to vote on Election Day, when the machines “malfunctioned” for hours in 30 percent of Maricopa precincts, most in R areas. Old folks and those who work can’t wait in line for hours, so they left. As far as Trump is concerned, I found his preelection conduct asinine - publicly criticizing DeSantis and Youngkin while hinting at a presidential announcement probably cost votes in close races. He should have been out there as a party unifier, spending some of the 100 mil he had in his PAC. Instead, he came across as a fool; I will still vote for him but am tired as can be of the teenaged “you hit me so I hit you” when nonentities are involved.
Trump said last night he had a 95% success rate.He said 25 lost and over 200 won.
My thoughts exactly, fruser. Americans will need to experience a whole lot more pain before they will be willing to rear up on their hind legs and bellow for proper change, rather than voting the party line, thought-free. Between that apathy, and the fraud, it is impossible for a conservative to win.
Oh boy, here we go.
Yeah, fair and open elections?
It’s clear to everyone with common sense what happened.
What was the cheating factor you used in your calculations?
The ex Cruzer-Loser classless bozos of ‘16 gang wants an new loser, DeSantimonious.
F them all.
Fetterman was elected a United States Senator. Who is the “fool,” Donald Trump or the American voter?
As the man once said, the fault is not in our stars it is in ourselves....
This place has become a toxic cesspool of TDS maniacs.
Have you seen the lineup of potential contenders? Nikki Haley, Tim Scott, Mike Pence, Larry Hogan, Asa Hutchinson, Chris Christie...every one with a :D after their name.
He endorsed who he thought would be the most MAGA or the least RINO candidate. When you’re choosing from 2-3 people, your options are limited. It’s not like he created these people.
There was a bit of sabotage going on too.
Mitch pulling money from NH and AZ and sending it to Murky in Alaska.
Rick Scott coming up with a platform that might screw retirees’ SS.
Graham talking about nationwide abortion ban.
Kari probably should have talked a little less about 2020 but the AZ election was crooked as hell with Hobbs being SoS while running for Governor. I also think AZ has been tainted by Californians having moved there over the years.
PA elections are a rigged game and only one side is playing by the new rules.
One side is playing by the new rules is a major fail by the RNC and that’s on Ronna ROMNEY McDaniel. Ballot harvesting is LEGAL in about half the states but only one side utilizes it. Mail-in ballots are LEGAL in 35 states but one side is afraid of it.
Thanks for doing the research and the math.
Almost every Republican candidate that Trump endorsed was already going to have a close election - BEFORE Trump endorsed them.
Anyone can have a perfect endorsement record if they just support the +20% candidates!
Eff ‘em. I do not for a second believe the commies in Miami-Dade voted for a republican. The TDS is so deep I believe they would rig an election for Trump’s opponent. Trump was not on any ballot in the election but these people are obsessed. The seminar callers have been out in full force on talk radio this week. Amazing!
With the media and never Trumpers piling on Donald as if the 2022 election was his fault. I think the only fault of Trump was not going after the Republican party to stop the rampant cheating.
With those in power starting a PAC in 2021 do deliberately MAKE SURE MAGA candidates lost.
Sure, no corruption there. Wake up.
FYI....AZJeep = NeverTrump, pro-Ukie cheerleader.
