NY Post ^ | Nov. 7, 2023

Democrats in Virginia on Tuesday night retained their majority in the state Senate — a blow to Republicans who were hoping to achieve total control of the state legislature and boost Gov. Glenn Youngkin in his final two years in office.

The GOP also lost control of Virginia’s House of Delegates, with Democrats set to win at least 51 seats in the 100-member lower chamber.

Oh for pity’s sake it wasn’t all that bad. People are only focusing on a couple states. There were some good wins too.

RATs wanted us to start savaging each other and we always oblige.

"As long as Trump remains a Republican, he’ll be obliged to do business with fat, incompetent people like Romney’s niece."

LOLOL!!

Nice try.

Out of his own mouth, Trump admits he helped elevate her to RNC Chair

Trump drives the Democrats to vote. He is the best weapon Democrats have

You fing idiot. Trump had zero to do with this. This was about the crazy people in NOVA and abortion.

I don’t know if the two or three posters here lamenting Trump are bots or paid trolls. Then again maybe they are just that stupid

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

They are stupid paid trolls. Only here to stir chit. When you see them for who they are, their bull$it they pedal will start to make sense.

They don’t believe what they post, they post what they are told to post.

How many times have you ever voted for a candidate just because he or she was endorsed by someone else?

Now you understand the purpose of the small few trolls here bashing Trump. THAT is exactly their aim.

Do you know why DeSantis is losing? He’s a bad candidate but the biggest failure is the people who support him. You guys are exactly like the Cruz supporters. You guys just turn people off.

And you know if you were to look back at the transition from Cruz to Trump that that is exactly what we all said of the lingering Cruz supporters? The cycle repeats.

That was my feeling in the matter. Thank you. I love President Trump.

And how many of those “Republicans” that won with Obama turned out to be useless?

Well then you obviously have great evidence you desire to trash President Trump. I wont. I adore the man and will write his name in if circumstances dictate.

I am saying that Youngkin had a golden opportunity to show strong leadership and he missed the mark.

He is a good man, but you have to know how to win.

The candidates who were chosen were, in MY opinion were not ones who would attract votes.

I’m guessing he had at least something to do with those choices.

Compared to today?

This country was a million times better off when Obama was president and “useless” Republicans were winning race after race across the country.

At least I could afford to buy stuff when Obama was president.

Actually I think you guys are all paid “supporters”. Part of the campaign scam to milk the last penny from the DeSantis war chest. Poor guy, he’s going to come out of this a broken man. Ah well, you guys all made a quick buck.

Make up your mind: Are Trump endorsements so important that they require complete loyalty to him forever thereafter or are they unimportant and offset by other factors?

Who's making money? Maybe the several folks repetively posting Trump and Ukraine propaganda, but I don't think anyone here is paid to post DeSantis information. I sure am not!

And I've asked that question of a few people periodically and all I typically get is crickets.
