But absentee voting was heavily favoring the 37 candidates while you guys were screaming MAGA hated Trump for Iran. Right up until yesterday.

Never change Tboy! lol

There’s been fracturing and cracks showing within MAGA. There is a growing “mad a Trump” group.

Still have hardcore supporters that will dominate the primaries. But that number might not be growing as much as the mad a Trump group is growing.

Fox News Trump supporters. The best kind right?


There is a lot of truth in this. Gallrein didn’t win a single age demographic below age 55.

All younger demographics went for Massie by double digits. Every. Single. One

I’m not a political election expert but I did stay a a Holiday Inn Express, and if we are analyzing trends, this would scare the crap out of me.

Nation wide elections will be a problem like many have said. Younger voters are struggling and all Trump can talk about it Iran. Of course maga still controls a republican primary, but the numbers are dwindling nationwide.

But they didn’t turn out. Which tells me they really don’t care. It’s not some referendum that some are claiming.

37-0 is a referendum

This is the voter age demographics from the Massie-Gallrein primary.

What Trump has shown us is that he still has enough grasp of the GOP base because his hold on the boomer and older Gen Z demographic is strong enough to win many primaries.

What is not mentioned is the extent to which he’s lost or is losing the rest of the coalition that voted and came out to rallies for him in 2024.

Gallrein was annihilated with the millennial and Gen Z vote.

So yes, there is strong evidence that the boomer neocon right is all Trump and the GOP can reliably count on in a general election right now because the left isn’t listening and the AF/TPUSA crowd is pissed.

We will find out in the general election whether without Trump on the ballot to get out his core base and with the disaffected younger vote upset with the lack of domestic progress on the campaign policies whether it’s enough to beat a DNC that’s despised nationally right now.

You just said the only people that bothered to show up was hard core Trump supporters and everyone else was disenfranchised. Decide your argument moron.

I actually like Massie's quote in his concession speech that he isn't bipartisan because he doesn't like either party. Feels like that encapsulates a large portion of the population these days.

You’re also not factoring in this is one district in America and the youth didn’t show up enough in a one party primary.

Predictions like Trump would lock everyone down for Covid and bomb Iran? Call Epstein a hoax. So MAGA.

This is because he knows he has no future left in the party after going after Trump and now losing. He can run independently which he should be doing in the first place as he’s a libertarian. Stop forgetting Ron DeSantis only got 3% in his home state in a primary against Trump. Ron has more national support and state support than Massie ever will.

Hey dipshit... When did Trump say he would NEVER, under any circumstances, use military force against our enemies? Provide a link please.

You fricking tards acting like this is Cheney/Bush 2.0 and we're in some Iraq/Afghanistan decade long war (based on complete lies) are fricking ridiculous. And with you, Mr. commie leftist, I bet you didn't say any negative shite about the Ukraine and our involvement there... for multiple years. We've been in Iran for 3 months with no troops on the ground. If we're still there in this "war" a year from now, then you crybaby muh "neo-con" dipshits that have been crying about since the first second of it will have a legitimate gripe. But for now, just STFU.

To the opposite side of your criticisms of Trump supporters... You mentally ill TDS crybabies cry, scream and stomp your feet and act like bratty little shits at EVERYTHING Trump says and does. For over a decade now. frick you.

This. Nationwide what was the win rate of candidates Trump endorsed? Close to 100%. No matter how we feel about it, it’s worth noting.

The numbers show only hard core Trump supporters showed up. Everyone else has given up. Great place to be.

These people continue to base everything off of Massie and it’s dumb. Dude isn’t that great and it showed. The weird little faction in the right has now become the left of hating Trump.
