The Republican primaries are almost over, and Trump won
Msn.com ^ | 8/17/22 | D. Hunter Schwarz

The 2022 primary season is nearly over, but already one thing is clear: former President Donald Trump won.

Candidates who support Trump’s false claim of widespread fraud in the 2020 election have won big in key swing states, and candidates he backed to challenge the 10 House Republicans who voted to impeach him following the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol have been mostly successful.

“This was a referendum on the never ending Witch Hunt,” Trump wrote in a post on his social network Tuesday after his endorsed candidate Harriet Hageman beat out Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., who voted for impeachment. “The people have spoken!”

Trump began endorsing candidates last year at a more aggressive pace than he did in the previous campaign. He’s backed 235 candidates for the 2022 midterm compared with 183 in 2020, according to Ballotpedia.

But they still have to deal with us.

That's why the IRS hired 87,000 agents that will be armed and happy to use "deadly force". I bet people will send in EXTRA money in hopes of just staying alive!

“... Trump’s false claim of widespread fraud in the 2020 election...”

No article is allowed to be posted without this phrase and they will NEVER let go of this position.

But who cares? 52% now believe the election was stolen and that was four weeks ago when they STOPPED polling that question.

Not to mention, they need to now focus on THEIR STATE issues! These elections have National ramifications, but all politics are LOCAL!

Most voters do not go into the booth, close the curtain and say, “Who is going to help the American image in Paraguay?”

They step in there and ask, “Who is going to help me get through this BS inflation and help me get and keep a good job and stop sending American jobs overseas, etc.”

If they focus on their individual state issues, they should win easily. They shouldn’t ignore the national picture, but the main focus should be local - ask Liz Cheney!

“My brakes locked up on the first sentence of the second paragraph.”

Yes. Calling them false is terrible journalism. Something like “controversial” would be accurate and nonjudgmental.

“Improbable” would be judgmental but less of a journalistic disaster than “false”.

They can’t say just “claim;” it has to always be “false claim”. It doesn’t work. I remain un-gas-lighted.

There was widespread fraud, the media is the one making the "false claim", but what would you expect from a corrupt media.

Democrats have been known to run conservative vets in Red areas becasue they know - they KNOW - without the numbers NOTHING can happen.

That said, Oz and Walker will help give power to the powerless and voice to the voiceless. And new perspectives.

When Trump chose DeSantis over the Establishment pick I hesitated because I knew how important it was to win - and besides I liked the Republican Establishment guy (also a Trump supporter). But I voted for DeSantis in the primary on faith Trump saw something I might have missed.

Polls showed Gillum (a drug addicted democrat whore monger) would beat DeSantis. But DeSantis took the win with about 30,000 votes - and the rest is history. Our best Governor - ever.

Support Oz and Walker - you might be in for a pleasant surprise.

For an example, Sidney Powell said that all votes are sent to a secret server where they are subject to manipulation. A hypothesis, right? It's incumbent on the fraud deniers to disprove that

Isn't it incumbent on those making the claim to disprove them?

It depends. There are alternate truths. It depends on what the definition of "disprove" is.

“What scary actions are we going to take?”

Well, first off, I seriously doubt there’s any “we” here; there’s NOBODY on this forum who’d be involved in anything that scary.

But, since you asked, I think it’s worth pointing out up front that this is a sort of “How do you hurt Superman?” type question. How do you “get to” an entity that is highly impervious? That’ has to be the question that gets answered, because if you succeed in answering that question, every entity that’s NOT impervious is suddenly easy picking.

So, what if we indulge in a little thought exercise, and consider the impact of a substantial, successful action against the public voice of the left. What would happen if, say, the five or ten most-watched leftist news anchors suddenly vanished? If one night several of them just aren’t anywhere to be found, and — like Jimmy Hoffa — they never resurface. Just Soviet-era KGB-style GONE.

Newscasters are “regular Joe” types; they don’t have Secret Service protection, they’re accessible, and visible. It’s highly probable that the disappearance of several top names among them would send a thundering, apocalyptic message across the entire leftmedia propagandasphere.

It’s obviously just speculation; there’s no way to really know, but if I were asked the question about what actions might be really scary, more than tackling any agency, or any elected or appointed public official or group of officials, I think a simultaneous takedown of several significant leftnews mouthpieces would ignite a very substantial level of fear.

As to WHO would do this? Pfft! I haven’t the foggiest idea who’d be operationally capable of managing so many details so quickly without being traced. This is Hollywood-level “Mission Impossible” type stuff, here; it’d have to be a big-time “black op” by a very well-equipped group; no single person could ever pull off anything on this scale. The most one individual could MAYBE do is score hits on several of these people over a period of time, but that’d put all the rest of them on high alert; the entire leftnews organism would go into siege mode and the impact would be comparatively minor. I could even imagine that, in the wake of that sort of thing, Congress might deign to grant Fourth Estate personalities actual Secret Service protection.

So, yeah. Just totally FORGET about some “lone wolf” taking leftnews anchors out onesie-twosie; I think the players in that business can sleep easy knowing that sort of thing would just be too ineffective to even bother with. If I’m an anchor at CNN, I’m not awake at night in fear of assassins; the cost/benefit ratio militates against it. Strongly. No, I think there’d have to be a big op where a number of top names just disappear forever into the terror of an unknown fate, and that would paralyze the industry, and rock the core of every other player in it. I think THAT would be truly scary.

Oz was a bad choice by Trump

That ad video was a mistake.

Republicans need to run on mostly the illegal open border and crime.

Or maybe he was the least worst choice.

Yes, the local issues are important

Like the excess crime and towns and cities being invaded by $ sucking invading illegal aliens and their causing crimes to soar locally all across the country.

Yes, hit on inflation too, food and energy-gas for cars and home heating and cooling.

In the new Trump administration....they can be re-purposed for hunting down and expelling all illegal invaders.

Since the border wall will be completed....expulsion via trebuchet

I think everyone should know and remember that any indictment will not keep Trump from running and, if he wins, being sworn in as President.

Candidates who support Trump’s false claim of widespread fraud in the 2020 election>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Just because the left and MSM have combined to grift America doesn't make their protests in this bogus thread article true.Its actually propaganda. Even Fox News cannot fac4 the truth, and disallow men like Tucke Carlson, Jesse Watters and Sean Hannity from telling the truth. They skirt the issue....will not talk about the Navarro Reprot or Dinesh DiSousa. But they ALL know the truth.They just hate President Trump , infected by TDR.

There was indeed widespread fraud in the 2020 election. Its just a fact that the MSM and the Deep State cannot cover up.....no matter how hard they try , no matter how many FBI raids they bring.

There are two prime sources which reveal the cheat election of 2020:

1) The Navarro Report:

https://americanvotersalliance.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/The-Navarro-Report-Vol-I-II-III-Feb.-2-2021.pdf

2) Dinesh D'Sousa's documentary: "2000 Mules"

https://youtu.be/jah4B4-ea1I

Even is you read or see either one, its very plain to see. Both have been attacked, Navarro has even been arrested and charged with a bogus crime by the Kangaroo J6 Kommission, and DeSousa's film has been blacklisted and censored. But that does not change the truth.

And these media a$$hats want us to beome hoodwinked and then live in another world of falsehood, in a re-imagined America.

To boot, anyone watching what the Biden Regime is doing will understand that they are simply not qualified for the Presidency....because they cheated. As a result America is being dis-assembled.

Yes Trump won....and America won. Truth won. And now the Deep State, the RINOs and the political elite class of misrulers know one thing....." we are coming for you"...America is BACK!.

TRUMP WON

Trumps win is the real reason why the FBI raided Mar a Lago to stop his popularity and diminish him and his supporters ( another EPIC FAIL, and revealing of desperation),,,,,and Trump has created a vast movement of well informed Patriots. And now his cheif enemy? Mitch McConnell, who had better resign and give the Senate gavel to someone who can fight these Marxists who now control our nation.
