I didn’t know Bongino was an RDS supporter. I don’t really trust any of these pundits or podcasters. Hubby loves Bongino and Shapiro, but I think they’re opportunists so I don’t listen to either one. They were big-time MAGA guys at one time, which is why their careers took off, but I think deep down they go whichever way the wind blows.

“I didn’t know Bongino was an RDS supporter.”

Bongino says Trump is his first choice, but he positively melts over any mention of DeSantis.

Once Bongino was interviewing Trump, Trump starting slamming DeSantis, and Bongino interrupted him and took up for DeSantis, acted real offended Trump was saying that. About the dumbest thing I have ever heard.

The next day on air Bongino claimed to apologize but never really did.

Yet Trump can fill a stadium of cheering supporters in every precinct of America at the snap of his fingers. The low turn out narrative is stupid. Beneath DeSantis.

"No need for independents, disaffected Trump supporters (like me)?"

I held my nose and voted for McPain, Romney, Dole, but you're disaffected, so... Stay home on primary day, Vote in November.

I’m thinking cold weather was the result of low turn out. But common sense is lacking nowadays... And Luntz is an azzhole.

it’s only embarrassing for you as you’re exposed as the fraud you are; a libtard parading on a conservative site as “concerned” for the future of the Republic.

LOL

Over 110,000 Iowans braved record-low temperatures after a blizzard blanketed their state just days earlier.

In 2012 there were 122,000 voters. And in 2008, the turnout was similar, with 120,000 voters.

Luntz may be by coincidence correct - that would likely be the way if he is as his data analysis in the past has not exactly been accurate. He’s also claimed Trump’s rallies had low attendance in 2016 - garbage, and was gloating about the huge blowout the data showed would be coming as he sat on the panel on Yahoo News’ election coverage as the returns started coming in. But there is no doubt there has been lower enthusiasm among the GOP base ever since 2018 and each election since. They have kept their wallets closed and sat on their behinds while the Left vastly outraises and outworks us. Can’t blame it on the GOPe as they didn’t shell out the bucks for Trump endorsed candidates or even Trump himself.

This has to be reversed or we will indeed lose again...fraud or no fraud.

Right. If people hold our noses for McCain and Romney we can certainly do it for Trump...and he’s already proven his metal with judges alone. That is enough reason to vote for him vs. the judges Biden is appointing now. With Trump we know he had really the best track record of appointing good judges - we already know that - with McCain and Romney it was only theoretical / a hope they would appoint better judges...so if you can’t “hold your nose” knowing we would definitely get that back, something is wrong with that logic.

Okay. So the analysis is garbage - the variable of the super low temps matters.

Dear Morons

It was some of the worse weather ever recorded in Iowa that night.
