Maybe...we heard that in 2016 and Trump won, but he lost the popular vote and squeaked by in Mich, Penn and Wisc. Then the House was lost in 2018 and we see the ramifications of that even though some here proudly declined to vote republican.

So...we will see. This country is divided and every anti Trumper will vote and they can't wait to vote. I work with these people, so I hope the RNC is registering as fast as they can.

If you are referring to ballot harvesting, it is legal, so it is important for the republicans to catch up and do the exact same thing.

It costs billions...it's not like renting an empty space for a yoga studio. And then monetizing it will be almost impossible since the libs will threaten any advertiser.

It's the equivalent of someone wanting to start another WalMart. It's not going to happen.

Our only hope is the courts...shocking, yes. Forcing these tech companies to be open forums and basically forcing free speech on them and/or breaking them up via the Justice Dept/Courts. That is our only recourse.

Re: Hispanic & Black voters will vote for Trump in larger numbers than in 2016.

Why? Based on polls that almost everyone at Free Republic says are useless or fraudulent?

The 2018 midterm gives us some hard data, and it looks exactly like the 2016 data, except the Democrats had near record turn out.

2016 - Blacks voting for Trump - 8%

2018 - Blacks voting for GOP Congressman - 9%

2016 - Hispanics voting for Trump - 28%

2018 - Hispanics voting for GOP Congressman - 29%

There was also a significant increase in white Democrat voters in 2018.

Bottom Line - if the Democrats turn out in 2020 with the same passion they turned out in 2018, they will win the White House and probably both Houses of Congress.

Win or lose, Trump will be the last GOP president.

Yes I’m sure those hundreds of thousands of “harvested” votes were legitimate /s

Roll my eyes. You can be sarcastic all you want, but ballot harvesting is legal and other states have now made it legal. So, the republicans can sit and watch the democrats get more votes and win more races or they need to step up and do the same. A time to choose.

I hope I am wrong but I don’t see massive numbers of black Americans voting for any R candidate. The generations of D’s convincing them they are the only choice for them would take generations to unwind if anyone ever tried.

The mythical R hispanic is another Great Hope that never materializes. Other investigators have debunked the claim that Bush got 44% of the hispanic vote in 2004. R’s never get that many.

The only hope is to accept that certain peoples in the world are more prone to truly not believe in freedom, to want to be taken care of by governments, to not care whether their rights are violated when doing so, and will do anything to support such a regime.

I’m blocked from seeing some twitter accounts that I otherwise would follow. It has to be twitter doing the blocking because I’ve never had any problem with these people themselves.

The reason why twitter would do this is to short circuit the “network effect”. When we follow and retweet each other it amplifies whatever message it is that interests us.

The leftists running Twitter don’t want us to benefit from the Network Effect. Shadow-banning and blocking people are tools they can use to limit our influence.

“And she’s not even controversial.”

I don’t know about that... the Obama gang would hate her. Sara Carter and John Solomon have done the best job of covering Spygate. They were probably the first two journalists to know that there was something there.

Well naturally, I was comparing to those that have already been banished from social networks like Alex Jones.

Because once a company like twitter has become dominant and achieved market power they can keep new competitors from gaining market share.

Re: George W. Bush got 44% of Hispanic vote.

It took seven years to get NEP (National Election Pool) to correct that number in their database.

They finally reduced it to 40%, which is almost certainly still too high.

Of course, in the intervening period, the 44% number appeared in thousands of pro-immigration references - which have NEVER been corrected.
