re: I guess the plan is to overwhelm the PT with anti Trump tolls.

I read somewhere else that there was a flood of foreign money funding packs that are doing this. I’ll try to find the link.

Do you think pro Trump groups aren't also doing the same thing?

The TDS crowd will need even more cheese with their whine when Trump issues those 5K checks.

The MAGA sycophants are getting ready for the "voter fraud 2026: electric boogaloo" with this silliness. They just can't understand that Trump and MAGA have turned off lots of moderate Republicans who voted for them in 2024. This isn't a difficult concept but seems inconceivable to those in the bubble.

You aren’t qualified to speak on the behalf of anyone on the Right, Republican or not.

It might possibly be because people are tired of the chaos….

Who are the masterminds behind this brilliant plan?

Whoever they are, they're not very successful. I am running a poll among PoliBoard Trump supporters in another thread.

Out of the 100 plus responses,
-2 aren't going to vote for Republicans in the midterm (1 bc of Neocon foreign policy, 1 bc of AIPAC)
-1 is undecided

So now TD’s resident “Moderate”

I'm not a moderate. It sounds like you don't have the ability to discuss these things if you make such a crucial mistake.

gets to define the “actual Right”?

I've been consistent in that for 20+ years on here publicly and nobody questioned that definition until 2016.

That’s rich coming from someone whose entire routine consists of arguing with conservatives and sneering at virtually every policy that leans right.

You're doing the re-definition thing here.

You’re a garden-variety Leftist

Holy shite

How many leftists do you know promote the free market and abhor public spending and the regulatory state? Talk about re-defining terms

There’s your clarification fatass

Yeah you're displaying a complete failure of analysis AND emotional compromising leading to ad hom fallacies.

This conversation is above your capabilities, I reckon. Now I understand why you're so confused and do the NPC thing.

Pretending like the story in the OP didn't happen.

There is no "passive aggressive gaslighting" or "trolls" "overwhelming" the board.

I can assure you people are more turned off by terrorists. Your party has absorbed quite a few terrorist cells. And they are now in control of the democratic party.

And now we jump right into irrelevance

Maybe you should go pay for influencers to lie on camera?

Your entire party is nothing but fake bullshite and fraud.

And now we jump right into ignorance

Maybe it's not a conspiracy and that's just where most polls actually are?

I'm far from an anti-Trump troll and polls have been proven to be vulnerable to wording, specifically sampling from pro/con areas, etc. but I will flatly state that the GOP is likely to lose one or both chambers in the mid-terms at this point (20 GOP Senate seats out of 53 currently held are up for grabs).

There are a few reasons behind my stance:

1. Enough people are either seeing costs rise or believing they are seeing costs rise that it's likely to swing mid-terms.

2. The price of gas (and the much-reported price of diesel) colors a lot of what people believe as to costs. If voters are paying $4+ per gallon of gas, they are going to at least believe everything else costs more as well (regardless of if things cost more or not).

3. Historically, the party holding the presidency and both chambers going into the mid-term elections loses one or both chambers.

Over the last month the media has gone largely silent on the DSA issue and pump prices have jumped over the last month. For the GOP to hold both chambers the DSA needs to really show its arse again (so much so that the news media can't ignore it) and pump prices need to have a solid but rapid drop (and I mean gasoline being at or below $3.25 nationally so as to be able to brag about it being lower than last year as a talking point). Without those or some black swan event, the GOP objectively faces an uphill battle

I love this laughable doe-eyed act that taxpayer-funded political manipulation is somehow foreign to Democrats after the Biden White House and multiple federal agencies spent years leaning on social-media companies over what Americans were allowed to see.

I’m enjoying watching you convince yourself that posts on the political board of an LSU sports forum are so influential with such a wide reach that “they” are recruiting people to post anti -Trump views here.
