If Republicans do not solve the problem of massive fraud by the Demoncrats this country will be swept into oblivion.

“prolonged opposition”???

Try “blatant fraud and theft”?

If there’s a question about Republicans being able to win national elections it’s not because of electability. It’s because the game is now permanently rigged against them.

Republicans don’t stand much of chance of winning elections, either federally or, as we saw in Arizona, locally, with election malfeasance and fraud . . .

From 2020 forward, the only Republicans who win elections will be those the Democrats allow to win. The Democrats will need token opposition. From time to time it may appear that the Republicans have the upper hand, but the Democrats will always be in control.

Until the Republicans realize that the other side now has zero morals, zero honor, zero interest in fair-play -- and act accordingly, things will only get worse.

The Democrats have lost any conscience and any restraint they might have had. With such people, fear is the only thing that keeps them from committing atrocities.

Their rhetoric to cut Social Security and Medicare alienates more voters than it gains.

They can’t even claim to be the party of tax cuts after McConnell and Co helped the Dems push through the last Omi-massive spending bill.

The GOP needs a complete revamping of their platform.

They keep pretending that fake elections are still legitimate as if by endlessly repeating a lie it becomes true

The 2022 midterm elections were a catastrophe for Republicans

Catastrophe? Lat time I looked , Pelosi was kicked off her broom and the Republicans control the House now.

If the Republican House shuts down the government until the mail in ballot fraud is finally regulated through USPS reform, everything is possible. If they don’t, the cheating will continue unabated.

Trump is running in '24. Desantis will get crushed if he tries to go against Trump.

I predict that you will be voting for Trump in Nov. ‘24.

Get used to the idea.

Where else are you going to go?

Trump is the ONLY Republican that has a chance. You know it. Normal people do not have problem with Trump’s gruff style that you dilettantes ( mini Paul Ryans ) hate so much.
