Trump meets with McCarthy in Florida to plan GOP House takeover in 2022
Fox News ^ | January 28, 2021 | Marisa Schultz

Posted on 01/28/2021 1:49:02 PM PST by rdl6989

House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy met with former President Trump at Mar-a-lago Thursday where the two agreed to work together on Republicans taking back the House in 2022.

McCarthy, who once said Trump "bears responsibility" for the deadly Jan. 6 Capitol riot, reunited with Trump in Florida for a "very good and cordial" meeting where McCarthy welcomed Trump's support in promoting GOP House candidates in the next election, according to a readout from Trump's team.

Any excuse whatsoever to get us back to 2016.

What did they do with it in 2017 & 2018?

Why do I have to ask you the obvious?

IT DOESN’T MATTER.

Why do you think I am begging folks to wake up.

I’ve been a Republican for 50 years. Why would I want to
see the party crash and burn, if they were doing the things
they should have been?

I agree with that.

At least with a Patriot Party or whatever, we would know we
are all pushing in the same direction, and there is a chance
things really will change if we win.

If we get the Republicans the majority again in 2022, we will
be the biggest fools in this Republic’s history.

We got them the majority in 2016, and now they are doing what
they always have. “Just get us the majority. You’ll see...”

No, this guy already saw.

Go straight to hell RP.

Well, I have more respect for an “appeal to authority” to Trump than to yourself.
Which is all you make.

Trump knows these people. Knows how far they can be trusted. Knows how they can be controlled- or not.

Really: don’t you agree?

Sure DC affects them, Trump knows just how it does, as we all do: $$$$$$$$$$$
But those $$$$$$$$$$$ have to be turned to votes. Except for those who retire- which many Trump opponents will be doing.

These folks need to WAKE THE HELL UP look around at your nation right now LOOK HARD at where we are AND then realize we did NOT get here without Republican help!! For God’s sake the republicans LET a fraudulent election stand THEY DID NOTHING at the state OR federal level to fully audit the results THAT IS THE TRUTH!!

I, too, hope to someday comprehend why PDJT chose NOT to exert his authority to bring down the Deep State Swamp.

Extremely frustrating to watch him fly away and have all of the very corrupt figures he had the power to expose actually resume their roles in government.

“...failed to do with their best chance in 70 years,...”

Republican candidates did extremely well on November 3rd, even the President. The failure was in recognizing and stopping the rampant fraud in the six targeted states. The RNC did get out the vote and we made great strides in the House and in State legislatures; and they are Trump supporters.

You might think carefully about that divorce. Don’t rush.

A third party is too difficult. Let’s take over the hollowed out shell of the Republican Party and start rooting out some bad seeds from the dems. I think we need Trump to call for candidates who support all Americans to run for all offices in both parties. We need conservatives to run against the GOPe candidates. We need common-sense moderate dems to run on a platform against Nancy Pelosi’s agenda in suburban districts. Trump’s Patriot pick gets his endorsement so no confusion.

And we begin to clean up our elections as we find and fund candidates.

Did Trump get those people to play along in his first
four year in office? No

Please don’t use the appeal to authority ploy again.

It’s not working and you should know why.

Once again for the 16 or 17th time in my lifetime, party
loyalists claim this time will be different. Has it ever
been different?

They weren’t much help for Reagan. They weren’t any help
for Trump nearly 30 years later.

How can you guys ever expect to get better, if you learn
absolutely nothing each time they pull this routine on
you?

Trump spent about 25% as much as Hillary did in 2016. That may be farther off than I mean it to be. He spent a lot
less than she did. Did money work? No.

And so now what are we supposed to count on?

Why we’re going to make sure our candidates get lots of
money.

The time for Trump to capitalize on his fame is now. He
has 75 million loyal followers.

Some of them will be dead in 2022, and more by 2024.

He won’t be coming right off a presidential term.

Now is the time. If he doesn’t go third party now, this
nation is toast.

You’re just spouting the party line. I had it up to here
with the party line. NO MORE!

Yeah, I identify with those thoughts.

Already got my divorce, just about a month ago.

Registered Republican, voted straight ticket Republican for 50 years, no more.

I re-registered as an Independent back at the end of December.

If there is a PATRIOT PARTY or a MAGA PARTY on the horizon, led by TRUMP and TRUMP LOYALISTS, I will re-register again!

Funny how you guys disappear when it’s pointed out that you’re calling Trump a fool.

Oh you’re back with more claims that you know more than Trump and more claims that he’s an idiot.
In 2016 there were still many anti-Trump Members in the House. Now there are only about ten.
So, obviously things have changed.

Sad that you think nothing has changed. Shows ignorance.

Did we win the US Senate?

Did we take over control in the House?

Did we as a party vigorously fight the fraud? Did Republicans
across the nation fight vigorously to stop the fraud?
Did the leadership even contest it?

Did the party elites defend Trump?

Did the party elites defend Trump or Conservatives in W., D.C?

Are they or are they not still speaking the same language
as the Democrats when it comes to our Conservative people
being Domestic Terrorists?

Did Mitch McConnell start off by saying this Impeachment
effort will be illegal after Trump leaves office last week?

Did Mitch McConnell admit he might vote for Impeachment,
but he wasn’t sure?

Did the Republican’s use their majority to join with Trump
and pass legislation to protect this Republic?

Don’t rush?

Are you expletive deleted kidding me? I’ve watch this
fake dog n pony show for 50 years.

Don’t rush?

What should I do, way another 200 years?

I haven’t yet.

I’ve not been off the property since 12/10/20. I have a lot
of food and I’m doing fine.

So I haven’t stopped by to register Independent yet.

I will be doing so.

I’ve cast my last vote for losers.

I’d like to support Trump, but if it’s in the RP, why
bother? I look at 2017 and 2018, and it’s clear as day
it will be no different this time than it has been over
the last 50 years.

Just not going to waste my time doing the same old think
over and over.

Actually, I was hoping you’d realize it’s not Trump I’m
aiming at.

Sadly, you can’t grasp that either.

Yeah, I limit myself to only the logical use of an “appeal to authority” to the Founders’ views- mostly.

Pointing out that you’re calling Trump a fool is not that.

Sure, you’re just calling Trump a fool and hoping no one realizes you are.
I get it.
