Per Rich Baris, Noncollege republicans didn't turn out like Dems. Blames GOP leadership.

He's going off on Turtle and the RNC. Saying all the data he's seeing is showing turnout was terrible and the leadership didn't lift a finger.

He also said Trump could have done more because GOP leadership abandoned candidates.

Well maybe also they voted in 2020 and saw all the shenanigans that happened and feel like the election was stolen and what’s the point now. The very definition of feeling disenfranchised. But it’s OK because they’re just taxpayers that put the rest of the country on their back. Not like they’re important or anything

The GOP needs better leadership in DC. It's the party's biggest fault, by far. We need some fighters.

Make it easier. Convince all Republicans to stay home and not vote and save the Dems the trouble of having to manufacture votes

The Dems way outspent the GOP in this election cycle.

The establishment GOP wanted to lose.

Sounds like they abstained to spite Trump.

AZ and NV might give Trump the last laugh though.

The Republicans in Washington had one primary goal in 2022:

Weaken Trump even if it meant losing.

They could not stomach Vance, Oz, Walker and Masters winning and Trump emerging more powerful than ever.

They feel like they have to end Trump. This was just the first blow. More are coming.

So Turtle cut some loose and sort of helped Vance.

This is a fact. They did not lift much of a finger.


I'm not sure how much these candidates would have had if Trump had not fundraised for pacs. The 50 he did netted 350 Million.

We've heard "stolen election" for two years. After all the court cases and bluster nothing has come of it.

So why be shocked people didn't turn out?

The GOP is it's own worst enemy.

Maybe the GOP should just freaking embrace mail in or whatever format the other side is using instead of being bullheaded?

Bottom line if Republicans didn’t show up with all the pathetic leadership going on from the Dem party the pandemic has officially caused people to quit.
It’s extremely eye opening.
Trump didn’t help. At all

These guys don't vote in midterms.



Hell, they don't vote if Trump isn't on the ballot.

Mitch had more interest in saving Rhino republicans from losing to other republicans then to help republicans in close battles.

If Trump wants to be speaker of the house then he should come out and say it . Put the pressure on those rhinos ,

The GOP is losing the information war quite handedly due to their own stubbornness and stupidity.
