CPAC Chairman to Newsmax: 'Silly' to Blame Trump for GOP Setbacks
NewsMax ^

Posted on 11/14/2022 1:47:09 PM PST by SoConPubbie

CPAC Chairman Matt Schlapp told Newsmax on Monday that it's "silly" to blame former Donald Trump for the disappointing performance of Republicans in last week's midterm elections.

Schlapp told Newsmax's "Wake Up America" that "Trump's batting average on his candidates were better than almost anybody's and that "to blame Donald Trump [for the poor results] is silly."

Schlapp also supports Trump's desire to run for the White House again, saying: "If Donald Trump feels like he has the energy and the vision to run for president, he absolutely should do it. I love the man. His policies helped transform the country."

Schlapp conceded that it would be "risky" for Trump to declare his candidacy now, saying that "we're still in this Herschel Walker win-or-lose phase ... but I think when you are a candidate and you know what you are going to do, waiting is usually not your friend."

Schlapp also lamented the continued uncertainly of many election races, saying: "I find it outrageous in the leading country in the world that we're still counting ballots" six days after the election.

He also asked why "Republicans lose 80% of these races every time it [the counting] goes into extra innings?"

Schlapp insisted that on Election Day, "Republicans went to vote and thousands and thousands of them, even if they went to went to multiple polling places, the polling machines weren't working. We'll never know how many thousands of Republicans went back home" without voting.

He added that ballot harvesting is ripe in places like Nevada, where Democrats are in virtual control of the process.

This system allows a person to turn in someone else's ballot, such as in nursing homes, without proper supervision, with Schlapp stating it "it is ripe with the ability to also have fraud —

Trump is a true New Yorker and New Yorkers can be “dicks”. It's part of their charm. But remember…….

My Governor DeSantis just won a FOUR YEAR Term. Because so many Americans are Fetterman Americans we end up with a Fetterman and a Biden in important and powerful positions.

1. Paul (The Swamp) Ryan backs DeSantis.

2. Ken Griffin is in negotiations with DeSantis. DeSantis will be owned, unlike Trump.

3. Look at what Trump accomplished:

Gas price per gallon was about $2.30;
Inflation about 1.4%, mortgage rates were half of what they are now;
Unemployment was low before Covid and before Blue Governors shut everything
down and we were in the midst of a V-shape recovery until January 22, 2021;
Tax decrease; tax laws promoted small businesses as well as large;
US enjoyed energy independence - No Green Agenda, no war on energy, No Paris Treaty;
No war in Ukraine, no threat of nuclear war, NATO paid its way;
Little Rocket Man stopped playing with his toys;
China was quiet and we were winning the trade war;
Last 18 mos. In Afghanistan, not one Trooper was lost and the Taliban behaved;
ISIS was defeated.
US companies were bringing home the jobs due to well executed tax treatments;
Peace in the Middle East aka Abraham Accords; US Embassy moved to Jerusalem; and Iran was isolated.
Got three non-left “I don't know what a woman is” Supreme Court Justices on the bench allowing Roe vs Wade to be overturned.

Who the heck can accomplish the above in four years while being impeached twice and investigated by Obama's Weaponized Agencies?

Yet Hillary and Hunter Biden walk free. The wall wasn’t built. We are still supporting other members of NATO. Nothing was done about making our elections secure.

It's not just "silly" to blame President Trump for the mid-term losses.

It is outright DISGUSTING!

And in light of all the information coming out about just HOW CORRUPT our government really is-It might even be considered TREASONOUS- to try to blame him ,(the one and only person who has had the cajones to stand up to these criminal b#stards), for election losses.

News for the slow to comprehend:

THEY CHEATED...AGAIN.

In fact, I would bet good money, that most, or even ALL of Trump's candidates actually won, but for the effing rat cheating.

Also, exactly how much taxpayer funds for Ukraine, was laundered back to Democrats through the FTX Crypto currency scandal?

1. Excuse me elections are a State issue. Blame the effing States.

2. Trump was fighting off Obama/Biden/Hillary/Comey lies and impeachments.

3. Democrats filed many lawsuits slowing down the building of the wall.

I would vote for him if he wins the nomination,but think a realistic assessmenet must be made if he could win given the devisiveness which follows him.

I think you're delusional if you think the Democrats and their press would suddenly play nice if they get rid of Trump. They'd be as reasonable toward DeSantis as they were toward Trump, meaning, not at all. They'd just refocus their hate.

Can Trump win again? I doubt it because mail-in-voting = fraud.

We don’t need overpaid political consultants to tell us why the election went the way it did. The Arizona fraudulent vote counting tells us all we need to know. The RATS cheated. Why is that so hard for many on our side to accept?

“... the obvious democrat cheating...”

Got any irrefutable evidence of democratic cheating such as you allude too??? I’m asking because I’d like to point people who question or want to see information about cheating in this election. I’m getting real tired of defending something without having real solid evidence of cheating in this election. And NO I don’t want second hand stories, anecdotes from someone’s third cousin, etc.

I hope Trump will write another book, “How to Get a Hearing with a Libtard Press”.

I don't think we would be talking about setbacks without the unrealistic expectations of the 'red wave' which was probably created by left wing pollsters.

I think we just might be satisfied with the gains we made and use them as a stepping stone to 2024.

Instead I see most people on this site pointing fingers and blame about the 'huge loss'.

THIS 66

The Losses were because they (Congress and Senate) love them some Joe Biden.

Simple.

Try to win a Chess Match while protecting the other guy’s King.

1). Expand Personal Fortune

2) Feed personal Ego

3). Win majority

Much was orchestrated...

Things I have not seen that I suspect were orchestrated to be released AFTER election day:

The FTX debacle...
Tech Co layoffs...
Military upset that they have given up much of their armaments to Ukraine and want Russia and Ukraine to settle...
Blue governors are talking about mask mandates and vax mandates for kids in school...

“Is an assessment a surrender?”

When there is no other options, it’s counter productive and a waste of time.

People need to stop trying to be the smartest person in the room.

No one else has the passion, strength, intelligence, independent means and balls to do what needs to be done to save the Republic except Trump.

I don’t blame him for the losses. I just wish he hadn’t become such a dick lately.

And I wish that DeSantis had not endorsed O'Dea who proclaimed he was going to do everything in his power to keep President Trump from being the 2024 Nominee.

I also wish that DeSantis had not take all of that money from all of those Globalist/Establishment GOP types.

I also wish that DeSantis had been loyal to President Trump after President Trump actually got him elected the first time.

There is lots of things that we can wish for.

Trump himself decides to go nuclear on anyone and everyone who doesn’t worship him and his disciples here twist it to say it’s a coordinated attack on him. Bizarre.

What is it with you DeSantis Trolls that you cannot provide the full context of the situation, you know, the Truth?

Why the distortion and deceit if you have the Truth on your side?

Here are the parts of the historical context you left out when you purposefully distorted what President Trump is/was doing:

  1. DeSantis endorsed the NeverTrumper O'Dea who publicly stated he would do everything in his power to make sure President Trump was not the 2024 Nominee.
  2. DeSantis accepted millions of dollars in campaign donations from known Globalist/Establishment entities both in and outside the GOP. What we call the swamp.
  3. DeSantis made a cringe-worthy add, "On the eight day of Creation", thus gaining himself the title "DeSantimonious" from President Trump
  4. DeSantis, even though President Trump basically got him elected the first time with his support, refuses to state publicly that he will not be running in 2024 if President Trump runs. Total DISLOYALTY on the part of DeSantis.
  5. It is the Globalists and Establishment GOP that is pushing for him to be Nominated in 2024.
