Michigan GOP turmoil threatens effort to flip state for Trump
Breitbart ^ | 01/29/2024 | JULIA MUELLER

Internal turmoil is roiling the Michigan GOP as it looks to retake a key 2024 battleground that’s shown signs of moving away from President Biden.

A Decision Desk HQ/The Hill average of polls out of the Great Lakes State shows former President Trump several points ahead of Biden after the Democrat flipped Michigan blue in the 2020 election. Concerns are also growing that the state’s sizable Arab American population won’t turn out for Biden amid anger over the war in Gaza.

But the Michigan GOP is facing its own setbacks. Republicans there voted this month to oust the controversial Kristina Karamo from her role as state GOP chair, but she’s insisted she’s still in control — sparking a party leadership power struggle as the Republicans eye what should be a prime pickup opportunity.

PLEASE, GOP, let’s get our act together asap before it’s too late so we don’t wake up to a PERMANENT nightmare November 6th!!!

The incompetent RINOs believe it is their party, and would rather make GOP voters suffer while the country crashes and burns rather than work with conservatives to defeat Democrats (some of the RINOs likely are Democrats). There is no getting their act together because the RINOs are rotten to the core.

OMG!! I was holding out hope that there could be sufficient support from MAGA advocates to save the day.

It’s terrifying to come to terms that our Republic is doomed.

Fearporn. Once a price is settled upon for the weave qween, Pete will have MI pointed towards TrumpII, and as I have pointed out brilliantly elsewhere, once Youngkin puts VA into play, The White Hospice has no pathway ... you take back GA (done deal) and at the point, you can game flipping AZ/MI/VA and you only need one at that point. There isn't enough gold in Ft. Knox to prop up an angry senile grandpa.

Chaotic here in Michigan after years of being weak and riddled with RINOs.

And the alternate slate of electors waiting to see if the vote fraud investigations would be successful (they were thwarted) have all been indicted for the felony of being ready for such service.

Dem. AG Nessel continued, “how do you flip someone who concedes that they did everything that they’re accused of doing, but what they say is, ‘we believe that we were in the right. We think that Donald Trump is the real winner of the election’ … They really legit believe that. They genuinely believe it. Somebody can’t even plead guilty if they wanted to, because they can’t admit that what they did violated the law, because they still think they’re right.”


16 false Trump electors face felony charges in Michigan
The Detroit News

Lansing — Attorney General Dana Nessel is leveling felony charges against 16 Republicans.
Each of the 16 electors, including former Michigan Republican Party Co-Chairwoman Meshawn Maddock and Shelby Township Clerk Stan Grot, have been charged with eight felony counts, including forgery and conspiracy to commit election law forgery, according to Nessel’s office.

In 2016 these RINOS delivered Michigan to Trump.
Since then, it has been continuous down slide, Karamo included.
In order to win any election, you need about 50% of the vote. Karamo and company can deliver about 60% of Republicans. Zero Dems, almost zero of independents. That translates to maybe 25% of vote. Maybe more. But that means you’ll never win anything!
Can’t YOU UNDERSTABD this?!?!
Besides, there are some RINO’s around, but not too many.
Most GOP faithful are honest to goodness conservatives who do it, to save the country and children and,...
Go and work the pools, knock on doors, make calls, put signs up.
You will see how much these people are doing, for free and they donate a lot of their money above that!
And what do you got for that, besides some cheap lunch sometimes - being called names by people like you !
People who do nothing, but complain about everything!
Total losers who listen to Charlie Kirk and complain.
“We need to take the party over!”
OK, but then what, wait for 100 years to maybe win something. After people got 70 years of communism?
I know you, my wife is exactly like that!

Pathetic!

The Michigan Republicans are quite comfortable with the Michigan Mean Girls running the state.

Their red districts are an easy win for them [the useless POS Ed McBroom, who let the Michigan Dems get away with rigging 2020, got re-elected with 70% of the vote in 2022], and all they have to do now is collect their paychecks and bennies, while feebly piping up every once in a while about Mean Ol' Big Wretch and her fascist minions Nazi Nessel and "Dirty Josey" Benson.
