Conservatives aren’t motivated because we control every branch of government and we can’t pass something like the save act. Not to mention all of the known crimes committed with fraud and the election and still no accountability to be found. Why vote for republicans when they get into power and do jack shite to right wrongs.

The problem is that Ken Paxton said he is America First and indicated he was against foreign aid packages.

That's going to make the race closer than it should be in a red state.

Midterms will be ugly.

Democrats will win solid red seats. Socialists will win the normally blue seats

We are going to see a hard, and likely permanent, shift to the far left

Yeah yeah. Trump’s chances to win the Presidency in the last election were “ugly” too. Pretty much right up to election day itself. Soo.

Gven that Trump is governing economically left of Bill Clinton, and Trump has worked harder to get rid of conservatives in congress than he has democrats... you've kinda have an obvious answer to your question.

quote:

"You could almost make a case that the true inheritor of the Sanders revolution is Trump," Stewart said.

"He is the most socialist president of my lifetime."

"Taking a percentage of companies to do business? That's a Bernie Sanders idea. Doing TrumpRx where the government is involved in selling pharmaceuticals? That's a Bernie Sanders idea."

Then Stewart doubled down.

"Is it frustrating that the thing that you fought for your whole career, Democrats are the ones who run away from scared and Trump has embraced some of it?" he asked.

Some of the retarded conservatives are like this. They dont care about culture. RonRicks is one of them on this board.

Why would republicans be motivated? What has Thune and Johnson done to codify what Trump ran on in 2024?

I’ve got the answer. Nothing.

So republicans are worthless.

Still don't think Talarico can win statewide in Texas.

However, noticing yesterday evening and this morning, still tons of Talarico ads where he is talking to the camera, whether about himself or what he supposedly believes.

Still nothing from Paxton. It's almost like Paxton's campaign still doesn't want him talking to the camera, i.e. to the voters. No ads of him talking to crowds at a rally about what he's fighting for or what he believes in.

Why is that? Abbott campaign is running ads of him speaking to crowds.

Very strange.

It’s an intentional strategy. They don’t want Paxton to have to answer questions.

Debates are being scheduled…

Many GOP have Trump-fatigue. The GOP needs a charismatic young leader who can fired up the base and, particularly, the younger voters.

Too early. Vote is in November. Don’t want to expose strategy when it doesn’t matter. Let Talifreako have all the rope he needs…….

Soros is funding Talifreako so cash is being freely spent without consideration bang for buck…….

Polls don’t matter. Normals dont talk to pollsters. Wierdos talk to pollster….

No such thing.

It's an evil, corrupt system. Trump was elected because voters believed he had a chance to interrupt or break it. Instead, he became more of the same. The players behind him are corporate backed lesser-knowns like Vance and more neo-cons like Rubio and Cruz. Socialism is a disease, but when given the choice between two evils, many are going to choose the one less tried. It's poor thinking, but in our corrupt, corporate bought electoral system, what choice do voters really have?

Sadly, you could be correct. The Dems won’t win seats fairly, they’ll do whatever it takes (ie cheat). And take a look at the consequences thus far for when it’s been proven they’ve cheated. No one has received so much as a slap on the wrist so why stop? Not passing the SAVE Act will only embolden them

When it comes time to vote on policy, Democrats ALWAYS stick together. And that’s the only thing that really matters

Are you under some illusion that there might be this magical moderate Republican out there somewhere for which this would be different?

I’d bet 75% of Americans agree with America First’s policies and that same 75% loathes foreign aid packages. I don’t see how you believe that hurts Paxton with Republicans.
