CPAC Chairman to Newsmax: 'Silly' to Blame Trump for GOP Setbacks
NewsMax ^

CPAC Chairman Matt Schlapp told Newsmax on Monday that it's "silly" to blame former Donald Trump for the disappointing performance of Republicans in last week's midterm elections.

Schlapp told Newsmax's "Wake Up America" that "Trump's batting average on his candidates were better than almost anybody's and that "to blame Donald Trump [for the poor results] is silly."

Schlapp also supports Trump's desire to run for the White House again, saying: "If Donald Trump feels like he has the energy and the vision to run for president, he absolutely should do it. I love the man. His policies helped transform the country."

Schlapp conceded that it would be "risky" for Trump to declare his candidacy now, saying that "we're still in this Herschel Walker win-or-lose phase ... but I think when you are a candidate and you know what you are going to do, waiting is usually not your friend."

Schlapp also lamented the continued uncertainly of many election races, saying: "I find it outrageous in the leading country in the world that we're still counting ballots" six days after the election.

He also asked why "Republicans lose 80% of these races every time it [the counting] goes into extra innings?"

Schlapp insisted that on Election Day, "Republicans went to vote and thousands and thousands of them, even if they went to went to multiple polling places, the polling machines weren't working. We'll never know how many thousands of Republicans went back home" without voting.

He added that ballot harvesting is ripe in places like Nevada, where Democrats are in virtual control of the process.

I think you're delusional if you think the Democrats and their press would suddenly play nice if they get rid of Trump. They'd be as reasonable toward DeSantis as they were toward Trump, meaning, not at all. They'd just refocus their hate.

The DELUSIONAL one is you if you think that are going to play nice with DeSantis.

The Press is all-in for the Democrats.

You are plainly nuts if you think they are going to be nice to DeSantis because he doesn't do "Mean Tweets".

Man, you Trump freaks are bizarre. No different than Charlie Manson followers.

Most here love Trump, voted for Trump, had the highest esteem for Trump, supported Trump, even went and saw Trump. Then Trump became a dick last week attacking anyone and everyone who didn’t kiss his AZZ, bow down and worship him, taking credit for everything but the atonement on Calvary.......and you bring up some weak S@#$ like DeSantis didn’t thank him?

You people make Charlie Manson’s cult family look somewhat normal....wow.

In what language does vespa translate into snowflake? No one is trying to break bad on you hoss. Relax, considering your post below should have got you the zot I don't think you've met the 'free republic tough guy' yet. Something tells me you will soon though.

That seems to be typical of the differences in spending habits between Dems and Conservative Pubs.

Another Freeper cop with a threat and no brains. Go back and look at my posts before Trump became a jerk last week. Trump may be God to you but to rational reasonable people with half a brain.....dealing in reality, he’s being a real jerk. Like you are. Most cult members are jerks.

I'm not a FReeper Cop (that's the first time I've heard that term), there is no threat that you aren't creating for yourself and I have plenty of brains. Keep running your mouth, Jim will sniff you out all by his lonesome. You know Jim, right? He's that freeper tough guy you seek.
