It seems like they like to be just under the majority in congress with a dem president. That way they can sky scream that "this next election will be the most important ever" and ask for donations to stop the evil democrats. Just keep sending us money and we will make sure we are close enough to make conservatives believe we have a chance. Then they get to play the victim card and say we cant get anything done because the dems have the majority. Its so frustrating.

You think there is a difference between the two?

I used to think that.

They both like spending/making money.

We'll find out soon enough. I plan to call the local RNC and ask them to come by and pick up my signed ballot, they can take it from there. I did this in 2022 and was ignored. My guess is that regardless the pronouncements of Laura!!!, I'll be ignored again. They will probably bring a yard sign by, though, so there's that.

Sounds like the messaging from Democrats is working on you.

It's like they don't even care that we are on to them.

Because the Republican choice offers very little difference.

no sir. This is based off my own observations. When you have current leaders in the republican party pull dollars from races and speak out against other republicans causing them to lose votes, how else can you explain it?

What gets me is Republicans go on and on about the Welfare State and spending etc yet they seem to have no real urgency with all the Illegal Immigrants coming across and they want to ban abortion which is the only thing keeping his country from being an even bigger Welfare/Entitlement State than it already is. Just a bunch of fools.

Pence's comments are clearly an attempt to not win.

Lindsay's comments are clearly an attempt to not win.

Tend to agree but it's not that they don't want to win, it's that they are paralyzed by fear. They fear the MSM controlling the narrative and making their decision a worse problem for them than appeasing the Democrats. They fear losing what little power they still hold onto if their is voter backlash from the MSM narrative.

This all stems from weak and inept party leadership from the RNC and the out of touch establishment congressional leadership.

It's a sweet spot.

You get to have all of the accolades of office and title without the responsibility all while huffing and puffing about it being the other teams fault.

quote:

Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,

Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,

To the last syllable of recorded time;

And all our yesterdays have lighted fools

The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!

Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,

That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,

And then is heard no more. It is a tale

Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,

Signifying nothing.



-W. Shakespeare

Your observations of the Democrat media reports?

If it were your own observations, then you would know that the RNC chair responsible for the 2022 election has been fired. The RNC leadership is now controlled by Trump allies.

MOST Republicans are fighting to win. You, Pence, Romney, and a small minority of RINOs are the quitters.

Cornyn
Miss Lindsey
Collins
Romney
Murkowski

A few examples..does anybody think they want to fight and win for the right? No, they just want to support the uniparty and cash their checks as a member of the Washington Generals.

News flash, they'll eventually lose that remaining power in the near future as the Dems continue to consolidate.

You should have figured that out when they refused to back the clear favorite Trump, and pushed Haley and everyone else under the sun to get the nomination. Before that, they stood by while Dems stole the last election and then threw a bunch of trumped up charges at him to disqualify him from running again. And fought him the whole time he was in office.

They want the status quo, and Trump is the only guy that challenges that.

Where is he wrong? The Republicans keep making promises that if we'll just send money and go vote for them they'll enact a conservative agenda. Then, once in office, they don't keep ANY of their promises.
