And I would add that bringing the stolen 2020 election up in a state that had nothing to do with it is a terrible way to run a campaign. I’m not a fan of the political consultant class in this country, but they tend to have a pretty good idea about what matters to the voters.

Every time I see you lately, you’re posting something exceedingly idiotic. Not to mention objectively wrong.

Every SINGLE GOP voter I know, or come across, in person or online, most especially primary voting type, is absolutely LIVID about the last election.

Once again, please, whatever you do, just stay TF in Canada...where the mindless lefty jackasses roam.

The numbers you posted explain this story perfectly.

Trump didn’t withdraw his endorsement of Brooks because of a campaign issue.

He’s dumping Brooks because he knows Brooks is a loser — just like he was in 2017 when he ran for the GOP nomination in the special election for Jeff Sessions’ vacant seat.

Trump endored Brooks but Brooks is currently in 3rd place in the polls. Trump can’t be seen backing a loser, so he has to try to pick the winner.

Speaking of exceedingly idiotic and objectively wrong …

You wouldn’t even have a point if I DID live in Canada … which I don’t.

I know plenty of folks who are livid about the 2020 election. But I don't know anyone who is going to vote in 2022 and beyond based on that issue.

Two things.

1. We have only the word of "the Hill" liars that Trump is insisting Brooks bring this up a lot.

2. Judging by the poll someone posted above showing Brooks at 16%, it leads me to believe Trump's motivation may not be what we are being led to believe it is.

Trump likes to position himself as a winner, and he doesn't want to be connected to losers.

I see it as a genuine possibility that this is a contrived break with Brooks because Trump visualizes Brooks as losing, and Trump sees this as damaging his brand.

Just something that occurred to me.

“Brooks must run a campaign to get elected.
Rehashing 2020 won’t do that.”

It’s sentiments like this that will ensure that the Democrats remain free to steal any election they want in the future.

I had just put forth the same theory before I saw your post.

Yours is briefer than mine, and therefore better.

“bringing the stolen 2020 election up in a state that had nothing to do with it”

Every single state in the union was affected by the blatant theft of the 2020 election. We all have a stake in this issue.

Trump endorsed Romney.
He endorsed McCain.

Trump also endorsed McConnell, Grahamnesty, Tillis, Cornyn, Ernst, Capito, Cassidy, Risch, Rounds, Sasse and Sullivan.

He has endorsed Amnesty Senator Rubio for 2022.
Along with Boozman, Crapo, Grassley and Tim Scott.

We will NEVER Make America Great Again by re-electing Assistant Democrats.

Probably, but we don’t need more professional politicians who blow whichever way the focus group leads them. We need leaders who can see what the real important issues are and help the electorate understand why those issues are important.

True, plenty of lemons among his picks.

Since when do we need a “loyalty test” to anything other than the Constitution and our Republic?

Do we all need to be 24x7 election fraud, single-issue, Trump uber alles... or we’ll be labeled “disloyal”?

Don’t get me wrong... The electoral fraud that occurred is the death knell of our Republic. There is no “fixing” it via peaceful means and banging Trump’s drumbeat to a possible election loss this Fall isn’t going to fix it either.

Right. See Post #65.

I’ve said for years that Trump only wants to endorse winners. That’s why he has supported so many RINOs in recent years.

FYI … I haven’t based any of my comments here on what was posted in “The Hill” — other than accepting their direct quotes from Trump’s statement at face value.

Why?

How did his endorsement of McCain, Romney, McConnell, Grahamnesty, Cassidy, Tillis, Cornyn, Risch, Rounds, Sasse, Ernst, and Sullivan work out for us?

Mo Brooks was losing badly. Trump is just cutting bait here to avoid the stink of a Brooks defeat.

“But I will say this; rehashing the stolen election is NOT a good campaign issue.”

I don’t see this as an effort by PDJT to reverse the 2020 outcome; I believe even he can see that’s not going to happen.

What I DO see here is an effort by the President to ensure that every effort is made to prevent a national election from ever again being so blatantly stolen.

He can see that many, if not most, Republicans aren’t on board with that, and wants to change it.

I wouldn’t describe that as “rehashing the stolen election.”
