The GOP is in great need of a top to bottom houscleaning.

It was all a head fake

Because we offered the voters nothing

We didn’t even have a ground game and whined about how the democrats were doing a way better job

Our message was non existent

Our senate leadership failed

Trump’s message of “sTolEn ElecTionS” won’t bring out voters, if elections are rigged, why bother voting?

We didn’t encourage early voting, think about it, you can get way more voters through the voting machines quicker over 7 days vs 1 day, we could have had shorter lines, which would easily mean more voters on election day being counted. But we refuse to do this, why?

We are party of conspiracy nuts and Q morons

We poisoned ourselves with moderates, centrists, etc. They either don’t show up or vote for the D because they appear safer and more reasonable

Our media sucks

1. Ground Game

2. GOPe

3. Trump, although it is a bit unfair to dump everything on him, isn’t exactly helping and shares responsibility as the supposed leader of Republicans over three disappointing elections.

That’s for sure. Get rid of those crappy Senate candidates, and the horrible governor candidates! what a complete disaster.

This paragraph pretty sums up why the red wave did not happen.

“””Throughout the 2022 midterms, GOP leadership gave exorbitantly to liberal and squishy Republicans—the type that would vote to codify same sex marriage—over America First candidates who wanted to take the party in a new direction. GOP leadership lit money on fire in the primaries to prevent America First candidates from making it to the general.”””

That plus fraud.

I don’t buy this. The democrat played for ballots while the republicans played for votes. They basically did on a local level what they did on a national level in 2020. Repbublicans have not woken up to the reality that the democrats changed the game in 2020.

The blame game on fellow republicans is just monkey stupid.

One word I haven’t seen in the stories about the red wave that wasn’t is “complacency.”

Dems were pushed to vote with continual ads on how Pubs are going to ban abortion from conception to birth and how Dems are the ones that have to save democracy by voting.

Pub voters were told, at least on Fox, time and time again in the weeks leading up to the November election how there was to be a BIG red wave in the House of Representatives similar to Newt’s win in 1994, and that Pubs may actually win the Senate! Of course, the House win was a squeaker and we actually lost a Senate seat.

How much of that was due to complacency? An article in our local Oil Patch City paper detailed how Pub turnout in this very conservative county was about 34% while that in heavily Democratic Santa Fe county was 60%. Now given the latter number may include some mail-in-ballot fraud, it certainly was a very different turnout.

In fact, the low Pub turnout in the oil patch counties likely led to the defeat of the only Pub representative in Congress as the partisan Dems gerrymanded NM District 2 by placing conservative northern Lea County into the same district as Santa Fe and replacing these voters with those in the poverty and drug ridden Albuquerque South Valley. Even so, if Pub turnout in the remaining part of NM-2 was higher, the conservative representative Yvette Herrell would have kept her seat as she lost by just over 2,000 votes.

How much Pub complacency in races in other states led to Pub loses, I don’t know. But the pattern may be the same with the Dems having the issues and the Pubs assuming his conservative neighbor would vote so his/her vote wasn’t needed.

Not a word out of Devlin about fraud. Coming down on the RINO deep-state establishment for refusing to back MAGA candidates (so many of whom won in spite of lack of such support), while a big part of the problem, is a denial of the core problem.

One party offers gov. free sh*t cradle to grave + abortion on demand.

The other "asks" you to be responsible for your own life(and a life you might create).

Dems knew the yutes viewed THEIR vision more favorably(by far)...all they needed was an apparatus to get them (yutes) to actually "cast a ballot"(an alternative option to having to make the effort to actually go to the polling place, with an ID, and... VOTE....which is something dems hadn't (until 2018) been able to do with the yute vote).

They found the solution(harvesting, etc.), then the "never let it go to waste" crisis of covid, which opened up countless ways to (perhaps forever) game the system through absentee(laziness/lawlessness) for everyone.

That, along with the MAGA vs. GOPe internal strife/power struggle...

...that soured the stew enough to make many Rep. voters just say "why bother...tails they win, heads we lose".

....this isn't rocket science...it's manipulation/indoctrination vs. tradition.

Yutes have been manipulated/indoctrinated to view ANY/ALL tradition as...evil.

First time in over a hundred years that a incumbent Senator didn’t lose.

We won the majority in the House, and we hold more seats than Democrats in the Senate (it’s just that 3 independents caucus with the Democrats)

I do not accept the straw man that we somehow LOST! That is total BS!

Both the Senate and the house were almost evenly split, it was always unrealistic to assume we would suddenly get the biggest majorities since before the Great Depression, with a country that is nearly evenly split between patriots and commie fags.

These articles are stupid. They parrot the left’s mantra. There was a red wave. It was mitigated by voter fraud.

Would you people PLEASE STOP IT!!!

The "GOP leadership" ARE THE REAL REPUBLICANS!!!

This idea that the McConnells and the Romneys, the Ryans and the McCarthys, are some sort of minority alien occupiers ruling over an imaginary conservative party is just ludicrous.

The GOP believes in and will fight for:

1) Open borders
2) A global open market in labor
3) Offshoring productive industries
4) Financialization of the economy
5)) Severing the medium of exchange function of money from the store of value function.
6) Usury as the main engine of consumption.
7) Denying the people their natural, healthy love of their nation
8) Overseas wars on behalf of alien peoples without recompense for our sacrifice.
9) Forced "diversity" with its attendent decline in standards and inevitably accompanying violence.

The GOP has plenty of principles, convictions, and values. YOU must decide if they are yours, or not.
