On my way, not sure who is on the ballot because of when they were printed but the real pleasure will be voting against Nimrod, Obese One, Asshat, or whoever is left. In the deep red counties/townships around me Trump walked away with victories above 75% in both 2016 and 2020.

And if any of you vote for Nimarata Haley, we can’t be friends.

Media coverage has been very misleading on this primary.

For once the field is tilted in our favor.

This is a very important opportunity for President Trump to crush Nikki Haley—not just beat her by twenty points like in South Carolina or thirty points like in Iowa or Nevada but annihilate her.

75% of Republicans and Republican leaning Independents support President Trump. That is what the polls are showing in Michigan, and if we can hit that mark that will show the true unity in the Republican Party.

The Democrats will have to focus on their own primary because the Muslim team—several hundred thousand strong—are lobbying Democrats to support uncommitted delegates to punish Biden for failing to invade Israel. That means that most of the Democrats will “stay home” in their own primary and even Democratic leaning Independents may vote in the Democratic primary.

This should be a wonderful day in what could be an amazing year.

If she loses Michigan big, but stays in the race you have to assume the fix is in. Her donors are fleeing in droves. She spent $76 million is South Carolina and got slaughtered.

It really doesn’t make sense. She is not the 2nd choice of the majority Trump supporters. If somehow Trump were not able to run in November the party masters could not successfully run her as the Republican.

She has to know this. She cannot unite that which she has insulted. The only avenue that this makes sense for her and her political career is if somehow she were to run as a 3rd party this time around.

If she runs as a third party, she can say goodbye to ever winning a Republican nomination. The primary system isn't designed to be a situation where you become a sore loser and then muck it up for the person that beat (dare I say, trounced) you. I don't see how going third party in her situation would be a good career move, unless she is doing it for the campaign contributions.

There is a virtual news blackout on this here in Mi. You would never know the primary is today. I will vote for Trump. The rats control the election process here and I see little chance we can overcome the Detroit after hours ballot mill which will overwhelm any Trump lead.

for those who might be confused about the Michigan GOP primary/caucus (and who wouldn’t be):

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_Michigan_Republican_presidential_nominating_contests

The 2024 Michigan Republican presidential primary and caucuses are set to be held on February 27, 2024, and March 2, 2024, as part of the Republican Party primaries for the 2024 presidential election. 55 delegates to the 2024 Republican National Convention will be allocated on a proportional and winner-take-most basis.[1] The primary will take place concurrently with its Democratic counterpart.

Background

In the 2016 Michigan Republican presidential primary, Donald Trump won with 36.5% of the vote, carrying 25 out of 59 delegates total. His closest opponents, Governor of Ohio John Kasich and Senator from Texas Ted Cruz, received 24.9% and 24.3% of the vote, respectively, with both candidates receiving 17 delegates.[2]

Schedule

In February 2023, Governor Gretchen Whitmer signed legislation to move up the date of both the Democratic and Republican presidential primaries in Michigan to February 27, 2024, in line with the Democratic National Committee’s (DNC) state reorganization plan.[3]

The date violated Republican Party Rule 16(c)(1), which prohibits any state/territory except Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada, and South Carolina, from holding their primary/caucus until March 1, 2024, violating any other state/territory by stripping 80% of its delegates at the Republican National Convention.

In response, in June 2023, the Michigan Republican Party passed a resolution of intent that would allocate 16 delegates based on the results of the February 27 primary and 39 delegates based on the results of caucuses in each of the state’s 13 congressional districts on March 2.[4]

The convention held by the faction of the Michigan Republican Party recognized by the Republican National Committee led by Pete Hoekstra will be in Grand Rapids at the Amway Grand Plaza Hotel on March 2,[5] while the faction of the Michigan Republican Party led by Kristina Karamo will hold their convention in Detroit at Huntington Place on the same day.[6] While media is invited to the Karamo caucus, it will be closed to the public.[7] The RNC has indicated that only the delegates from the Hoekstra-led convention will be seated for the 2024 Republican National Convention.[8]

I think the only reason she’s sticking it out is because she’s likely been promised on the side that she’ll get the nomination by default, because that big bad meanie Trump will be taken off the ballot. Of course, all she’ll do is to play the role of the Washington Generals to Biden’s Globetrotters.

I just moved to SC and saw a couple of Nikki Haley signs. I have to get over to the Trump store and hear what’s being said there.

The Democrats are divided in Michigan because the Islamic folks are so angry at Biden.

You may be in for a pleasant surprise in Michigan in November—even with the Democratic cheating.

The mass media is terrified of Michigan because it has two issues that terrify the Democrats:

—An upcoming President Trump stunning annihilation of Nicki.

—A Muslim uprising that embarrasses Biden

Those do not fit into the “narrative” so they are trying to ignore them as much as possible. They want to depress the turnout of both Trump Republicans and Islamic Democrats.

Congrats on voting today. It is going to be an outstanding one.

Details:

Trump 76%

Haley 24%.

As long as Democrats vote in the Democratic primary to fight the Islamic insurgency we are talking about a massive blowout here—the best Trump performance of the primary season.

This is a big deal—and the mass media are going to try to downplay it.

It is devastating for Nikki.
