'Get Packing': GOP Sent Moving Boxes To Democrats In Competitive Races After Impeachment Vote
Townhall ^ | Nov 01, 2019 | Matt Vespa

There were some reports that House Democrats didn’t have the votes. The 25 or so Democrats who won in Trump districts know the polling. In battleground states, Trump’s impeachment isn’t popular. These folks didn’t win their 2018 races by massive margins. One bad move or vote could sink them, but those concerns were extinguished yesterday when House Democrats mustered 232 votes for this coup attempt—sorry, I mean impeachment push. Pelosi must’ve promised these members all the cover ad support they need, along with the pin number to the Democrats’ 2020 war chest. Still, that didn’t stop the National Republican Congressional Committee from sending moving boxes to these competitive districts represented by Democrats with a simple message: ‘Get packing’ (via USA Today):

The National Republican Congressional Committee sent packing boxes to several House Democrats who represent battleground states to signify they'll need them as "moving boxes" next November, prompting Capitol Hill police to investigate them as suspicious packages.

The boxes were delivered outside the offices of Reps. Abigail Spanberger (D-Va.), Jennifer Wexton (D-Va.), Conor Lamb (D-Pa.) and others to indicate they will not be in office much longer because of their participation into the impeachment investigation of President Donald Trump.

The sealed boxes were adorned with bows and a message that read “Get packing!”

Most of the Democrats who received packages flipped GOP districts in 2018 and will face competitive races next year to keep them.

[…]

Following the stunt, Democrats announced that they will be using the boxes to fill with food for those in need during the holidays, writing, “We’d be happy to use those boxes so that our staff can run a Thanksgiving food drive and turn your hilarious prank into a force for good.”

Yes, a lighter moment, I guess. But it’ll likely be the last. This impeachment proceeding, along with the 2020 election is going to be downright nasty.

“ They are going to have to do more than that. They need to recruit candidates.”

Thats true, but the RNC needs to stay out of the primaries and let the people of those districts decide and if they decide they want a Roy Moore type candidate then get on board and back them up regardless of what the dems and their media stooges say about them. Don’t be a Romney and stab them in the back to earn brownie points with the media. I do hope that we see some solid conservatives with good name recognition rise to the occasion. Just like Coach Tommy Tubberville here in Alabama, who I hope retakes the Senate seat lost thanks to a spineless Republican party.

Republicans don’t offer much to vote for either, unfortunately.

"Most of the Democrats who received packages flipped GOP districts [??? emphasis added] in 2018 and will face competitive races next year to keep them."

If I remember correctly, some of these “flipped GOP districts" are alleged to have been ballot box manipulated by Democrats.

Corrections, insights welcome.

Connor Lambs lined up for the slaughter. And the Democrat rabid leftist base is leading them there like the Pied Piper of Hamelin.

Most if not all of these Democrats in Trump won districts were toast anyways. Lamb is so toast he should enjoy his last year. Unless something strange happens count on a big Republican victory.

What will be most stunning and will go down in history as the worlds largest gaffe is that the democrats will take a loud, cocky, sometimes boorish billionaire and turn him into a sympathetic underdog...and the USA loves nothing more than an underdog

yes they are!

And few congress critters really want that.

Maybe 70 combined in the house and senate.

Or maybe i’m being jaded.
