Let’s Talk About Trump
Townhall.com ^ | 11/14/22 | Kurt Schlichter

Posted on 11/14/2022 9:04:14 AM PST by LRoggy

The midterm clusterfark has drawn plenty of hot takes and instant analyses that range from insightful to self-serving to unbelievably stupid. But now that we have gotten past the initial blasts of the flamethrower, perhaps we should take a breath and sit down, and think about where we are as a movement and what we need to do as a party for 2024. There’s a lot to talk about, from procedural questions like how we intend to cope with the new world of extended mail voting to substantive imperatives like how we must repeal the 19th Amendment as it applies to single, liberal women who vote for their Democrat Daddy in appalling numbers. We need to ask questions about candidate selection, money, issue choices, and a bunch of other stuff. And we need to answer the question of what to do about Donald J. Trump.

My DMs and texts and chats and super-secret Townhall VIP email (Join with promo code KURT for a discount!) exploded – I mean, they went the full Nagasaki – during the 24 hours after the election, and most of it was along the lines of “I am so done with Trump!” It was not just a few people, and it was not only on back channels (Twitter was alive with Trump-roasting). It was a lot of people, and most were pretty damn hardcore. These were not Never Trump sissies or establishment shills – those losers don’t get to talk to me. These were people who, unanimously, were grateful for what Trump did.

I’ve been here 22 years so take that laugh comment and shove it up your ass.

When did I claim ANY of this?

If you read anything on this site from me, you hear me say RULES, RULES and RULES. You play by the rules in the states and we have to stop whining about them and start doing the hard work.

The Dems have gotten way ahead of us with communicating with their base through Tik Tok and other means and they are willing to go the extra mile to get a ballot filled out instead of waiting and hoping they get to the polls.

We need to do a lot of this stuff too and use the social media tools to explain to kids what conservatism is and why they should vote for it.

Certainly Trump isn’t pushing for it to be done. Nor McConnell, McCarthy or the loser running the RNC.

I get hard on women, not male politicians like the Niina Burleigh Wannabe’s here

The SOS oversees aspects of the election but doesn't count the votes.

That's done by the county registrars.

True if it was all honest.. but it’s not. You believe what you just said?
These elections are run any way they can steal it...

Last week press from America’s Voice wanted to go into where the other press was in the AZ count. He was denied and when he didn’t go off the property they had a sheriff there to take him off. No others were barred.. just this man from a conservative network.

There has never been a time when it was this bad. The corruption in our government spills over to individuals and it’s a racket needs fixing. I don’t see that happening until there is someone who has the will and the way....and the stamina to withstand the onslaught.

Not quibbling about the rest, but Op Enduring Freedom was Afghanistan. Kosovo was Op Allied Farce. Okay, Force, but I always called it Farce. And I agree about anyone who would be proud of serving in that one.

Just because you don't win doesn't mean it was stolen.

Ever since election day Kari's said they had teams of people on top of every element of the count.

They've had their representatives there at every stage of the process.

Where's the steal?

Thank you for pointing that out. I'm usually a stickler for details, so I went back to see where I got Operation Enduring Freedom wrong. It turns out it's posted incorrectly on his own website.

A veteran of Operation Enduring Freedom (Kosovo), as well as the Los Angeles riots, the Northridge earthquake and the 2007 San Diego fires mobilizations, he is a graduate of the Army’s Combined Arms Staff Service School and the Command and General Staff College.

About Kurt Schlichter

Turns out this guy may be full of sh!t from top to bottom.

Yes, I have been hearing that. I guess my question becomes why is the GOP so terrible at winning elections? The Democrats manage it with LESS votes. Scary situation I worry about is that Democrats will continue to win as their vote percentage declines. Meaning what the masses want won’t matter anymore.

Just wow! How could someone who served in that mission get the name so wrong?

And how does he not understand that? Not to mention that it’s his slogan (apart from Bill Clinton using the phrase once or twice), so it’s not a movement others began under that name and he latched onto.

The complaints about Trump are mostly superficial. The nation being forced into communism from the left who are crazy after control and people who should know better hone in on something non vital..its beyond just common sense.

Gee, let’s talk about Q-ANON while we’re at it too.

Probably was a 17-year-old high school kid mocking those who kept posting that crap here.

Q sounds spot on to me.

That’s the first time in my life I’ve ever heard a Jewish person admit that.

(Rwandan genocide, Mao’s great leap forward, the Khmer Rouge, too.)

Thank you.

This is all a tightly coordinated campaign to keep Trump from running and/or dispirit his core voters. I am not believing any of it.
