Gingrich won't accept Biden as president, says Democrats, Republicans 'live in alternative worlds'
The Hill ^ | 12/22/20 10:56 AM EST | BY DOMINICK MASTRANGELO

Posted on 12/22/2020 8:14:55 AM PST by RandFan

In an op-ed titled "Why I will not accept Joe Biden as president," former House Speaker Newt Gingrich writes that his unwillingness to accept the election results rises from an outrage he says he previously hasn't felt.

Gingrich wrote that he'd been asked by a "smart friend of mine" why he couldn't accept Biden's win over President Trump.

"As I thought about it, I realized my anger and fear were not narrowly focused on votes," Gingrich wrote in an Op-Ed published Monday in the Washington Times. "My unwillingness to relax and accept that the election was over grew out of a level of outrage and alienation unlike anything I had experienced in more than 60 years involvement in public affairs."

Gingrich also said the two parties and liberals and conservatives "live in alternative worlds."

"You have more than 74 million voters who supported President Trump despite everything — and given the election mess, the number could easily be significantly higher. The truth is tens of millions of Americans are deeply alienated and angry," Gingrich wrote. "If Mr. Biden governs from the left — and he will almost certainly be forced to — that number will grow rapidly, and we will win a massive election in 2022."

Don’t try. The more you attempt encryption, the bigger the red “look at me!” flag you hang over your house.

Also, assuming your encryption is actually unbreakable (a big assumption) here are many ways to read your comms before and after encryption.

In fact, the snoopers fund and operate many VPN and encryption services just to entrap naive folks, giving everything to the snoops without knowing it.

And even just sending encrypted comms gives an intel bounty to the trackers through social network analysis.

And finally, everything you send that you (think you) have encrypted, will just be stored forever until the computing power is able to decrypt and read it, at which point you will be re-screwed again retroactively.

Everything I’ve said, I’ve said in the clear for 20 years. If the boys and girls down in the fusion centers don’t like what I say, then eff-off you oath-breaking domestic enemy Stasi-KGB snoops anyway.

Sorry Newt, but I think you're missing the big picture. Unless the mail absentee ballots are restricted to overseas military and the proven infirmed, there will be no further fair elections. The Dem controlled SOS's won't allow such if they get away with this national steal. However, the Repubs could start their own similar mail outs to the deceased, moved, illegals, printing, etc.

Pres. Trump warned the entire nation, including you, that mass mailings of ballots would be a disaster. Where were you ?

To save my Republic from the increasing Communist agenda, I would lie, cheat, falsify or by any other means to restore our Republic. My Honor would still be intact to save the greatest society this rock has ever experienced, and copied so many times over.

You did good Newt in your day, but grow up and get with the coming program. Your political insight and experience is now worthless. We are now in a political war for our liberty and livelihoods.

During the campaign for the nomination Cruz blamed Trump for the fascists shutting down his (Trump’s) Chicago rally. Cruz? No thanks.

That was when I shifted from Cruz to Trump. However, I also make some allowances for "youthful indiscretion" during an election - against a man who insulted Ted's wife. I'm looking for someone better than Cruz, but I'm not willing to reject Cruz out of hand if he's most likely to win.

Election in 2022?
Good grief! How can people be this monumentally stupid?
They slept through 2020, and the previous three years?

This was posted to me, incorrectly.

Trump would be the only viable candidate. Only Romney and Christie will be dumb enough to run against him, and Trump’s plan is obviously to continually campaign over the next 4 years.

He is the leader of the Republican party.

True, Matt. For now, who cares who reads what I say? My employer will care and fire me in a heartbeat. They’re extreme left-wing liberals. Well, the execs are.

The rest of you? So what? I never say anything that is against the law, so I couldn’t care less who reads it. Heck, I often repeat it.

As far as any future comms, those who need to know will.

“That was when I shifted from Cruz to Trump. However, I also make some allowances for “youthful indiscretion” during an election - against a man who insulted Ted’s wife.”

That’s also when I switched from Cruz to Trump - but regarding “youthful indiscretion”, Cruz was touted as a stalwart “constitutionalist” - and IMO, Trump insulting his wife is no excuse for abandoning those (alleged) principles.

”... that number will grow rapidly, and we will win a massive election in 2022."

If Biden beat President Trump, then who is this “we” you are referring to winning ever again, let alone in 2022?

You see the cheating, the fraud, the excuses, the official interference from high and low places and the coverups and you think you will ever win a political contest again?

Riiiight ... bye, bye, boys .... have fun storming the castle!

Now or never.

F Ted Cruz.

In the formative year leading up to the 2016 Election, Cruz did
more harm to our cause than Hillary Clinton and everyone else
on the Left.

He and his ‘Little Lord Fauntleroy’ crew of Levin and Beck,
made comments that put them squarely in the NeverTrump category
in 2016. Of course they deny it today, but lets review for
a moment.

Could Hillary Clinton or anyone at all on the Left make points
with Conservatives? No, and they didn’t need to. Cruz, Levin,
and Beck did what the Left never could have pulled off. They
reduced the people who would back Trump by enough of a margin
that Trump barely got elected the first time.

Hillary couldn’t pull that off, but guys inside our camp sure
could, and DID!

If you follow a “Conservative” guy and his rails on a candidate
long enough and viciously enough, there is no possibility
of a reset when the “Conservative” guy finally wakes up.

These guys didn’t just take 2016 off. They changed sides for
over eight months of the year, just savagely going after
Trump.

The NeverTrump group was a thing. It was appreciated and emblished
by the Republicans of the Deep State. The Democrats laughed and
wondered how they had been so lucky.

“Conservative” leaders had made it possible for them to make
the case to rank and file Republicans to abandon our candidate.

Even after the election and spilling over into the first two
years of Trump’s term in office, we still had folks who detested
Trump. McConnell and Ryan bought into the Russian Collusion
meme of shortening Trumps term in office.

None of these pecker-woods would admit to themselves that
our government had been so corrupted, they needed a guy like
Trump come along and clean house. So they fought him, or at
best remained silent when our movement needed boisterous
verbal support. Instead, we got kitties and mice, and mute
ones at that.

Even today we have Republicans who feel they are justified in
not supporting Trump, because they were given permission to
act that way by three main Conservative voices in 2016.

That 2016 display by Cruz, Levin, and Beck still haunts us
to this day.

Do people even know why they rail against Trump? By now they
have largely forgotten who enable their hatred for Trump in
2016. The sad part is they still do.

“Oh, I love what Trump is doing, but his tweets. He’s not fit
to be president.” Who were the first one’s to make that case in
slightly different ways?

Cruz has come out doing a decent job lately. Levin has made
some points. Beck is out there saying the right things. The
problem is, their treachery in 2016 still lingers.

In 2016 these few guys on our side, helped make things very
close in the November election. If Trump would have trounced
Clinton like he could have with full support, our guys on
Capital Hill couldn’t have gotten away with abandoning him
for years at a time.

The Russian Collusion ruse wouldn’t have been possible. Judges
would not have been so rabidly anti-Trump, even to this day.

The whole atmosphere of Conservatism and Republicanism was
pushed off track in 2016, and we are paying bitterly for that
even to this day. The loss this time is still made that much
more possible, by what transpired from 2016 through 2020.

Trump was not able to achieve all his goals. It appears it’s
almost impossible for him to retain the office he so deserves,
and it’s still largely a big problem that swelled in 2016 and
we still deal with today.

Trump has never gotten the full support of the Right, and that
is in no small part to the f-ups who refused to acknowledge
the values of Trumps platform and get behind and push.

The guy running for the nomination and lost, hated Trump with
a passion. He hated him more than he loved the nation.

Ted Cruz will NEVER get a vote from me.

As for Levin and Beck, I don’t forget people who put a knife
in the back of my nation and twist it.

The nation is still bleeding from those wounds.

If Trump can’t pull this out, it will very likely be leftover
political residue from the hatred for Trump that was uttered
by these men and the people who supported and followed them.

Here we are quite likely to be heading into the USSR of America,
and who wants to come in and rescue?

Why the guy who helped to get us here.

Sorry, too much damage...

> Americans will view the media just like the USSR citizens respected Pravda and Izvestia. <

In Russian pravda means “truth” and izvestia means “news”.

Old Soviet joke: “There is no pravda in Izvestia, and no izvestia in Pravda.”

IF Biden gets in, we need to treat him like Trump was treated. Investigation after investigation and constant threats of impeachment.

We organize the keyboard commandos......dole out specific jobs targeting the weak-kneed pols. We will work 24/7....there will be no letup.
