Trump urges South Carolina Republicans to vote for Bernie Sanders

President Trump is urging Republicans to vote in South Carolina’s Democratic primary on Saturday for the weakest candidate — determining that is Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders.

Trump, hosting a rally in South Carolina on Friday night, asked his crowd to help him pick the recipient of GOP votes in the “open” primary.

“I assume this is okay from a campaign finance standpoint,” Trump joked before carrying out his “poll” on the eve of the primary election.

He asked audience members to cheer for the Democrat they’d prefer be his easiest-to-beat opponent — Sanders or former Vice President Joe Biden.

“I think maybe Crazy Bernie has it,” Trump said.

Asking one more time for his supporters to cheer for either former vice president Biden or Sanders, Trump confirmed: “They think Bernie’s easier to beat.”

Your efforts will be futile. I was part of the VA Tea Party and helped sponsor the Tea Party state convention. I have worked with Middle Resolution and Bob Baille on interviewing perspective candidates for the House of Delegates and the Senate. I used to go to lobby day in Richmond to push state immigration legislation with Dave Albo and Todd Gilbert.

The political power in VA is located in NoVA. The Dems are well funded, motivated, and highly organized. They have purged GOP representation at all levels including county officers and boards of education. It is a sad, sad story of what happened in VA. We have seen it before in CA. There is no coming back for the GOP in either case. Sorry to be Debbie Downer, but those are the facts as I see them.

I just got my tax assessment for my rental property in McLean. Property values are soaring, but so are the taxes.

> Your efforts will be futile.

I’ve done the math and know they won’t be.

Dems are more charade than substance. What I am doing will bridge the organization gap and put the GOP back in control.

Already have enough units on board and cooperating that this is a will happen not a might happen.

GOP will reclaim Virginia, bank on it.

I have heard that refrain many times. Good luck, you'll need it.

FYI: It is LEGAL IMMIGRATION that has played a major role in turning VA blue. Except for Dave Brat and to a lesser extent Corey Stewart, Reps in VA are afraid to touch the subject. If we don't reduce legal immigration from the current 1.1 million legal permanent immigrants annually, the Dems will be the permanent majority party within a decade.

It’s certainly a factor, but the real impact came from tens of millions in outside money and the prepackaged New York style machine politics that came with it.

GOP in VA does business like it’s 1975. No chance against real statewide organization. Even the odds organizationally and we’ll find the GOP is still a firm majority in the state.

Why switch your party registration back? Why not just poll watch as a Demonrat and take the place of a poll watcher who would allow cheating?

You have to get 'official party clearance' along with lawyer approval to be a poll watcher in PA.

I have to carry valid party approved credentials to be allowed to sit in the room behind the poll 'judges' and watch the process.

The demonRATs would check my voter registration history and never give me clearance.

I go into 'indian country' {fully armed, minimum of three little friends} and I know that my presence in that specific precinct has cut the cheating by over 60%.

When I first went there, the demonRATs voted at 100% of all 'registered voters' both living and dead.

The count in 2016 was 159 hidlabutchbitch-29 Trump; compared to 400 gore -4 GWB in 2000.

The 2000 vote was at 100% of the registered voters.

After being there for twenty years and having the voter rolls cleaned, the 2016 count was 188 votes/310 registered, or 61% turnout, high but not as ridiculous as 100%.

I believe that the presence of poll watchers in a state like PA that has no 'early' voting, very little absentee voters, proof of residence and signature comparison/validation {but not picture ID}, can make a tremendous impact on fraud.

I plead with all pubbie citizens to find out what your state requirements are and then get involved and help clean up our election process.

Running through more convention calls

https://virginia.gop/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/2020-Danville-GOP-Firehouse-Primary-Call.pdf

“In addition to the foregoing, to be in accord with the principles of the Republican Party, a person otherwise
qualified hereunder shall not have participated in Virginia in the nominating process of a party other than
the Republican Party in the last five years from March 1, 2015. A single exception to this restriction shall
be approved for a voter that renounces affiliation with any other party in writing, and who expresses in
writing that they are in accord with the principles of the Republican Party and intends to support the
nominees of the Republican Party in the future.”

I’ve read over 200 Virginia county/city unit official calls and filing forms and a great many of them contain statements exactly like this one.

Don’t disqualify yourself for the spite vote. Join your local GOP unit instead and make it more effective.
