“ If Trump is the nominee or runs third party, the GOP will lose”
If it isn’t clear tonight, one thing better become clear quickly, no Republican, not Trump, not DeSantis, no one with an R…can win the presidency.
The ballot box will not get you your freedom. America of the past is gone. The barbarians have over-run us.
It is secession, revolution, or find some way to get out of this country to some isolated island somewhere and pray 24/7. It’s all going down.
Sadly, I think you are right.
There are still a lot of good people in this country, and some of them fought valiantly - and WON - today.
You can give up on our system and consider that it has failed if you want to.
I won’t.
Twinkling of an eye.
Lamp full
Last trumpet
Looking up
You may be right. I do think maybe people expected too much from this election. The red wave was touted and we expected it to all roll in early. I don’t think polling is worth paying any attention to. We also do not have any consistent rules on voting anymore. All different machines and many totally untrustworthy.
As I read through this the sad part is that many people have won tonight. We should have known we were not going to win big in always solid blue areas. It was a nice thought but not realistic.
Too much wishful thinking in a polarized country. We really need a divorce instead of an election. As usual the blame game is running rampant as we tear apart each other and that means that we will probably fail in 2024.
Another thing that may have happened tonight is that many people just do not vote in the midterms. I know some who just didn’t bother and some who don’t vote anymore because they figured it won’t matter.
The battle we are in can’t be fixed by elections. Many people are no longer capable of understanding how policy relates to the economy, how policy dictates relationships with other countries, how a system needs an unbiased and fair justice system etc.
