Stop voting for Republicans that betray us.

You can continue if you wish.

I will no longer vote for that.

Democrats in R jerseys still give away our country.

It’s not a reasonable or sensible conclusion to draw if you have looked at the evidence.

If you aren’t happy with the Republican candidates in the primary, then another option is to vote for the most conservative Democrat in their primary. The battle has to be fought on multiple fronts.

Then vote happily for George P. Bush, while he turns your state blue.

The video from Sate Farm Arena showed them hailing in crates of ballots and running them through the machines 3 to 5 times after poll watchers were sent home. You must be blind.

Trump’s got time to survey the landscape before moving... he needs the breather and it’ll keep corrupt democrats wondering... a true twofer.

Yep. The Democrats would love to see the GOP split in two. Do not do what your opponent wants you to do.

Perot wasn't stupid. He saw two loser candidates and did something about it - sounds like some guy who took an escalator ride in 2015.

Most people agree that Perot voters would have likely stayed home/discouraged or split their vote between Bubba and GHWB or Dole. Indeed, if Bush hadn't reversed course on taxes, trashed Reagan ("kinder and gentler") and turned out to be a putz ("new world order") maybe things could have turned out differently.

I really think Biden won legitimately and democrats are infiltrated us with fakes who want us to think it was stolen so we stay home like we did in GA and gave them two senate seats


There was massive, across the board fraud in the 2020 election.
Ballot stuffing, adjudication schemes with Dominion voting machines and massive mail in vote fraud were the three big areas. Illegal alien votes were also significant.

In Arizona, people have been going door to door to verify voter registration for people who cast ballots. Some addresses have 30+ people registered to vote from those addresses and none of them have ever lived there. Some of the addresses with multiple people registered to vote at them are vacant lots.

Arizona's universities and community colleges have tens of thousands of voters registered at their address. None of the registered voters at these schools are students or faculty and the admins can't determine any affiliation between the voters registered at their addresses and the schools . Some of the people registered to vote at the schools are 90+ years old and others appear to be phantom voters who exist only on paper.

Many of the phantom voters may be illegal aliens with false drivers licenses who registered with Arizona's register to vote on drivers license application.

Many of the phantom voters seem to vote via absentee ballots which begs the question - how are people collecting multiple mail in ballots from empty lots, schools, government buildings and such for people who have no connection with those addresses and who is filling those ballots out and sending them in? Seriously, how do you have a voter request and receive an absentee ballot- receive delivery of the ballot at an empty lot with no mail box and then fill out, sign a. signature and send in that mail in ballot. All from an empty lot. That is a very complicated and deliberate scam to pull off

It's a real mess and the fraud is very real.

The numbers of illegal and fraudulent votes seem to be very large - tens of thousands. Maybe over one hundred thousand.

The vote fraud in Az has been going on for a very long time and it's very well organized.

It's probably being done by Republicans too, and not just Democrats.

It’s good to see that some folks around here have good sense. The history of third parties isn’t encouraging.

Good. I think he’s terrified the GOP enough that all of a sudden, today, all sorts of formerly silent or even oppositional figures are coming out and supporting him...because they know that’s the only way for them. Otherwise, they’ll be toast.

Lindsey Graham called for Trump to take over the GOP, and I think Trump is doing this. It would be easier and give Trump more power if he simply occupied the existing “structure” rather than creating a new one, so that’s good.

One minor observation...we here shouldn’t trash GOPers who suddenly wake up and smell the coffee just because they were lousy in the past. Yes, a weak party is what has gotten us to this point, but we need to move ahead and encourage the weak sisters.

At the same time, his threat to start a third party was also good, because it showed even the GOPe that they’ve got to shape up or they’re going to be nobody, not reelected, no power- and probably no income and even their lavish bennies will go away. We will move to a fully one-party system where even the “good” (i.e., Dem favorable) GOPe will be criminalized.

The split in the GOP is not binary it is 95 - 5 Patriot vs RINO. You establishment farts don’t get that.

You should be chairman for the new party apparatus. Your powers of persuasion are remarkable. I’ll bet you’re a real hunk in your wifebeater.

No, he needs to get the GOP with him. It may change into a new party (as the Whigs did) but right now our system is set up for two parties, and all a third party will do is make sure the GOP never wins and there won’t even be a token presence.

The new third party will never win either but, if it’s lucky, might become a European style minority party that essentially sends its voters to a major party.

Europe has a parliamentary system where there are numerous parties but their elected representatives vote in coalitions. So a smaller party ends up casting its votes with one of the two largest parties. The major parties work to cultivate the favor of the minority parties as long as they need their votes, but in the case of conservative splinter parties, the major theoretically conservative party rarely carry out or support any of their conservative policies.
