When you lose solid red states like SC and Miss you need to take a good hard long look in the mirror and ask “why?”

LOL... Trumper's will never do so. They will deflect and blame everyone else but Trump.

In addition to his Iran bullshite that cost the R's this cycle, his hand picking the likes of Graham and Paxton was fricking stupid. Terrible candidates that got their shite pushed in.

Nobody ever said there wasn't. Its the reason you can't tout like the Dems often "Im here from the govt and here to help you... you don't know, but I'm doing this for your own good"


frick 50% of Americans don't have 1k saved for an emergency. How in the frick didn't you think that upward ticks of the cost of living since the start of 26' wasn't going to impact their vote.

Hell Letlow only won by ~25k votes

(For reference Kennedy won reelection by almost 600k votes in 2022 and Cassidy won by almost 900k in 2020)

Kind of brought it up onto themselves. Nominating Paxton and Graham was a huge mistake. The GOP isn't sending their best.

Bc Daddy trump doesn't like dissenters within his group... Follow lock/step or else.

Had he backed Cornyn in Texas, it wouldn't have been close and he prob could have drug Abbot across the line too.

Texas demographics checking in so you can draw your own conclusions.

Texas Race and Ethnicity

• Hispanic or Latino: Accounts for roughly 40% to 40.6% of the total population, and now represents the majority of children and young adults under 30 across the state.

• White / Non-Hispanic White: Non-Hispanic white residents make up about 36% to 39% of the population.

• Black or African American: Comprises approximately 12% of the population.

• Asian: Represents roughly 5% to 6.4% of the population, with localized concentrations in major

Compare to California demographics and it’s not difficult to see.


California Race, Ethnicity & Language

• Hispanic or Latino: 41.5% (the largest ethnic/racial group in the state)

• White (Non-Hispanic): 31.2%

• Asian: 16.3%

• Black or African American: 5.2%

• Two or More Races: 4.4%

• Languages Spoken (Ages 5+): English is spoken at home by about 55.9% of residents, Spanish by 28.5%, and Asian/Pacific Islander languages by 9.6%.

Add MS to that as well, CHS is an abysmal candidate. Her tv ad was attacking Colom about transgender kids, nothing else

The Jackson county Missouri ballot this year didn't even have (R) opposition to the sitting (D) reps in THREE SEATS.
So in some cases, they aren't even sending anybody.

I voted for Smith but she isn’t much of a candidate. She was originally installed and handed the seat and has maintained it simply being who had it handed to her. That said, there was absolutely no choice but to vote for her as someone who is conservative and loves our country.

There were multiple threads on the Jackson MS city council hoopla yesterday. The level of ignorance on display yesterday shows the not-so-distant future of this country. And that ignorance isn’t limited to blacks, it applies to whites as well. I skim through Facebook groups from the rural area where I grew up and it is filled with the ignorant and uninformed spouting off about this and that, wanting more from “the government” with no means to contribute themselves, as they barely make ends meet due to either a lack of skill, intelligence, motivation, or some combination of those.

Then you look at South Carolina where we finally get rid of Graham with a chance to move forward and the result is the powers that be try to install his sister. It shouldn’t be that way but it is.

You have 2 groups battling it out in this country, the establishment and the radicals and they are using the rest of the country to try to maintain or seize power. The truth is we have people electing the leaders of this country we wouldn’t trust to mow our yards on one end of the spectrum, and on the other we wouldn’t trust them to manage our retirement accounts.

The United States was founded on individual freedom in pursuit of an overarching North Star. That North Star has been removed due to being “offensive”, “evil”, whatever label can be applied to it to make it wrong, and now it’s about individual freedom with no united goal other than for me to get what I want today for most, and it is unsustainable. No doubt there is still a goal for those coordinating it at a high level, but for the individual citizen there is no long term ideal.

That’s another thing I noticed. We’ve got a mosque down the road from me and the parking lot overflows. The Sunday before Election Day and my church wasn’t even half full. Christians as a whole have failed miserably. Of course I say that loosely, since the reality is most only identify as Christian and checking the block of sitting for an hour every other week or so is the extent of what they’re willing to put into it.
