Donald Trump tweeted a couple of days ago that Governors Ducey and Kemp not only did nothing to help him, but actively fought against him more than they did any Democrat. He then urged the voters of AZ and GA to vote them out.

Things seemed to change after that -- not with Ducey and Kemp, but the Republican electors being seated is big.

These RINOs think that Trump's voters will forget all about him, and I think from the number of phone calls and emails they have been getting threatening to primary them might be starting to have an effect.

Even if Trump does manage to get a second term, I really, really hope that Ducey and Kemp are voted out. That would send a clear message.

I'm also looking forward to the Dominion grift being exposed and a return to paper ballots. I'm from Tennessee, which is redder than red. It has always puzzled me why we keep electing useless RINOs like Lamar Alexander and Governor Lee. It makes perfect sense now, and notice that Alexander recently added his voice to the chorus of those wanting Trump to concede.

I’m from Tennessee also.

The squishes win because when a real conservative runs the squishes convince a second conservative to also run that splits the conservative vote and thus the moderate gets the highest number of votes.

Doesn’t always happen (see Marsha Blackburn) but I have seen it happen too many times.

I'm from Ohio where we get Dewine & Portman so I get it. The Republicans want to go back to the days of negotiation with the Democrats of giving away 90% of the conservative position to get the Democrats to the table,giving up another 5% so “we can work together to get things done”, and then the remaining 5% will be deferred to a future Congress in 10 years to look at. The Republicans will always tell you this is the best deal they can get for now but if you send them money when they get the majority in both Houses of Congress things will be different. Just remember in 2017 the Republicans did have both Houses of Congress and the White House and still delivered the 5% in the future deal that's the best they could do. So the Democrats were in the minority and got to they set the agenda.We can now say without a doubt that the Republicans don't listen to their base and look down at them as a bunch of rubes who need to manipulated so they can keep getting elected. The Republicans only care about the donors who want cheap imported labor,transitioning the majority of manufacturing to cheaper overseas countries,off loading health care costs to the Federal Government, and government that will allow the donors to control the markets and keep out or eliminate any competition. If the Republicans were really working for you they would have lined up behind the President instead of either hiding or opposing him as a “true principled Republican just like Abraham Lincoln putting country first over party”! Remember when when you hear a Republican piously declare “ I'm for country over party” it's the code for "I'm an establishment Washington insider who works for the donors and look down the base voters".

Ducey is term-limited out in 2022, anyway - but he has got his eyes on the Senate.

Craptons of personal $$ (or access to establishment $$), no party registration to close the primaries and no runoffs.
