I’ve seen enough warm buckets of horse sweat candidates out of
the Republican party.
Undermined?
Moderates? Middle road...
Those are telltale words that reveal something like Democrats
in training.
Mitt Romeney, Liz Cheney, Meagain McCain,... no these are
straight up Democrats already.
About one percent of the party will sucker for them.

I’m sure Masket is a perfectly unbiased truthful reporter.

Probably 190-200 of them couldn’t get elected in a true
Conservative area.
We have a lot of folks out there thinking they are Conservative
and then voting people like them in.

We’re just trying to stop the GOP “moderates” from sabotaging the 2022 election for their ‘RAT bastard buttboys.

FiveThirtyEight was consistently wrong, wrong, wrong throughout Trump’s run for the presidency, 2015 onward.

Haha. We’ll see what happens in the primaries in May, June and August.

Primaries can be a crap shoot, and with loaded dice at that.

any chance that the Republican Party will return to its more moderate [subservient] ways is being undercut by supporters of Donald Trump who are taking over local parties and punishing any lawmaker who doesn't toe the Trump line. Fixed. And good for us/them.

The mess we are in today is primarily because of these pukes in our party. They helped the rats get rid of trump and fraudulently place this diaper wearing nimrod and his radical regime in place

Radical: Work, pay your bills, educate your children.
Moderate: Burn down cities, indoctrinate children, pay people not to work.
When is the GOP-e going to realize THIS should be their campaign ad?
