Ignore the trash talk: Republicans can and will win this November
Washington Examiner ^ | 29 Aug, 2022 | Herschel Walker

Trash talk is common in sports. Whether it’s lighthearted or nasty, the purpose is the same: to intimidate your opponent and make them lose focus and feel less confident in their ability to win.

Democrats and their friends in the media are engaging in their own form of trash talk when it comes to the midterm elections. They wave around some meaningless poll or quote an “expert” who would have us believe that Republican Senate candidates are weak, President Joe Biden has had some great successes, the Democrats’ fundraising numbers give them a huge advantage, and Republicans can’t possibly win back the Senate.

None of this is true. It’s nothing more than an intimidation tactic designed to scare conservative donors away, suppress Republican enthusiasm, and discourage Republican candidates and voters.

To my fellow colleagues, don’t fall for it. Primary voters chose us, not because we look and sound like slick politicians but because we are not politicians. That will be an asset in the general election since the politicians in charge have made such a terrible mess.

As for Biden’s “success,” the only thing he and the Democrats have been successful at is making us unsafe, weak, woke, and broke. Democrats and the media can try to spin all they want, but it won’t work. People know the truth. They feel the truth in their wallets every single day.

Are Democrats raising a lot of money? Sure. Much of it is coming from out of state. But my opponent’s out-of-state donors can’t vote in Georgia. I’ll take votes over dollars any day.

I have never backed down from a fight, and neither should you. There is too much at stake. I’m sure you are hearing and seeing the same things on the campaign trail that I am:

Republicans have had to put up with phony polls forever... they'll say democrats ahead - a sure win - then they 'tighten'. Does anyone really believe lots of folks who voted for Trump were really debating whether of not to vote for Hillary?

Democrats are such liars.

Not if we have idiot Lin Wood telling conservatives not to vote like he did during the January 2021 Georgia runoff. Idiot and worse the voters who listened to him.

Yes but if democrats mange to keep the house and keep the senate with two Additional democrats. Say goodbye to filibuster and hello to hell. I’d rather have the majority with warts since Biden will veto everything anyway.

Sound advice from @HerschelWalker for his fellow GOP candidates: Ignore the talking-head trash talk. Listen to the voters. Keep pulling. Keep plugging. Together we can do this. We have to. https://t.co/ThobQK1lF4— Newt Gingrich (@newtgingrich) September 3, 2022
