What I know is Trump wasn't in the 2022 election. You know that as well.

The results of the 2022 election point to what I'm talking about, which is why I cited it, but then you know that too. Women took out their vengeance on the GOP for Trump's SCOTUS appointments, heedless of the legal injustice of it. Trump will need female votes to win a big enough plurality to overcome programmatic fraud. He can't afford to irritate or antagonize them needlessly. The name calling doesn't do so much to benefit his campaign. He should take a few pointers from Reagan on using humor to accomplish much the same thing.

Kellyanne is just another establishment Republican who wants to go back to zombie Reaganism. We tried it for decades. It doesn’t work. No one wants to hear about tax cuts and deregulation when this country is going to hell in a handbasket. Trump needs to warn people about what the rats are going to do to the country.

You didn't cite diddly. You alluded to that election earlier, just like you are now. And you absolve your own self from citing polls as few are reliable, in your own words.

Can you even back up your claim about abortion being a factor in the 2022 results other than the MSM's slanted viewpoint articles? Are you going to offer evidence for all 50 States or just claim it was so just because R's didn't win all of the elections they ran in?

I know you're stuck, either way. No proof, just assertions.

“It’s fewer insults, more insights, and that policy contrast.”

Why not let Trump be Trump?

Many of his "so called" insults actually and directly represent his SUPPORTERS honest feelings. I believe he chooses the vernacular and ADJECTIVES he expounds deliberately for that very reason.

Oh bullshit, it's time for you political puritans to get off your high horses and stop spouting your clever opining.

Get on board before you and your fellow idiots sink the ship......Sheesh!

Oh we're playing word games now, you pretending authority as to what constitutes "citation" for purposes of mere comment and discussion for which I don't have much time. Earth to philman_36, you are living in Texas, which is not representative of the country at large. I live above Silicon Valley, which is representative of urban areas nationwide. Urban numbers dominate election results. Women are pissed about Dobbs. That's just how things are. The public "education" (conditioning) system cooked up over the last 100 years works. People are too busy to give a crap about life. They just want what they can't have.

Yes, there are gobs of "information" from polls back in 2022 (now that we've got you in the correct year for the "last election"). And what do you know that they all agree that the general public thinks the Federal government should set medical standards for abortion as a matter of convenience without a clue as to the implications. The numbers all agree at about 65%, thus indicating that women are pissed about Dobbs.

CA Prop 1 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_California_Proposition_1

More importantly, the election results corroborate those numbers. Ballot initiatives in MI and KY passed and there will be more in 2024, particularly in Arizona, thus helping the left against that nasty Trump who appointed two of those justices that could read the supreme law of the land. Republicans lost supermajorities in WI and NC. We kept Congress by a hair.

That's what happened and I don't need to find a poll that you'll accept to tell you that believing "Trump will fix it" or that forcing people into the hard choice between tyranny and what they're told by the MSM will solve anything. If conservatives are going to save this country, our efforts should be redirected to explaining the benefits of federalism and due process to learn how to address nasty problems like medical life and death decisions, of which abortion is but one. My wife works in a Level III NICU and the horror stories she brings home teaches that said hard line delivers results that are little more than cruelty visited upon the innocent. As medical technology advances, those decisions get harder. It's just how things are.

This is political reality:

If you want conservatism to fail, just keep on heading where you're going.

Get your brain in gear crybaby (and when it comes to prospective analysis, there is no more objective standard than betting). Women are different and their preferences matter at the polls. We have too much fraud to overcome in battleground States to afford your bellicose attitude that will alienate them completely instead of winning them over. There is a way to do the latter without compromising a thing, but instead of spouting "right to life" we need to emphasize "right to due process," which is exactly in keeping with the 5th Amendment standard.

What Dobbs did, despite that it was legally correct, was to leave many women feeling threatened by anything to do with the Republican Party. It must be fixed or this country is toast.

I am involved deeply un GOP politics in Arizona. I hear it all the time from people who are not involved or follow politics 24/7. You know, the people we need to appeal to. This time around I do not know if it will hurt with all the crap going on in this Country. But we cannot make believe that it is not an issue. It could only help him to just stay on message and stop with the insults. You won’t have to defend him to me. I am just the messenger.
