re: Tucker said the DNC is killing the RNC in donations. It does not look like a red wave.

The GOPe - I hold in contempt. They have to be eradicated if we have any chance of making America Great Again.

The question is about how this is best done.

Is it best done by turning the whole country over to Obama for a generation?

Or is it best done by changing the GOP?

If you think it's best done by turning the country over to Obama, then abandoning the GOP is a smart move. But it might be smarter to hate the GOPe with a passion and not support the Leftists destroying the country at the same time.

I think Tucker is trying to motivate GOP to vote



Yeah, Tucker probably cherry picked the Poltico poll to make a point about the trend in the Dem direction and to motive GOP candidates to differentiate themselves. He even suggested low hanging fruit topics to focus on: crime and the border.

As a candidate, would you rather receive 30 $2 million donations, or 5 million $5 donations?

IMO what is happening is Democrats are donating to the DNC and most Republicans are donating to Trump so when you compare DNC numbers to RNC numbers it looks really bad for the RNC.

So Trump is taking the money for himself? He hasn't registered a campaign yet. Giving to Trump may literally be giving to Trump.

It’s not really pessimism. It’s more conclusions based on past events. The GOPE hates Trump and his supporters so much they would rather lose than back a Trump-endorsed candidate and GOP voters have been burned so many times by so many empty promises they no longer trust the Republican Party.

I just don't understand how this formula can be beat


A split is inevitable. The only question is will one side be willing to fight to keep the country together.

With both sides being pushed further and further to the left and right I hope each side just says "ok yall do you, and we will do us".

That is my hope, but if it goes the other way neither side will have an easy victory. The other option will be difficult, bloody, deadly and expensive.

Globalists donate to the DNC, not the RNC.

Let’s not pretend this is about registered voters donating or not donating.

So it seems the GOPe and the GOP/MAGA are on the same page then - they both want Democrats to win?

Unfortunately for sure. The Right just isn't good at politics, and I'm talking about rank and file conservatives, who have become world class at getting their asses kicked by liberals.

Look fetterman had a stroke and was off the trail for 3 months he is still cognitively impaired. Oz has to be mean and if he is Will loose all his mass appeal for TV .
He is a compromised candidate if he goes for the throat and cozy up and full embrace Trump and he looses he is ending his tv career, but that is the only way for him to win. So he is tiptoeing as a candidate.

I think McConnell would rather the Democrats take the Senate in order to have Schumer come to him to negotiate than to negotiate with all of the Republicans and then Schumer.

Also the GOP should be winning the Senate by 6 seats but as of now it looks like the GOP is not only going to lose the senate but that the DNC will actually pick up 3-4 more Senate seats because of the GOP's pitiful campaign right now. Its almost like they want the DNCe to stay in control so that the new GOP stays out.

So my question is what message can incumbent democrats in toss up states send to independent voters- currently getting hammered by their policies- that convinces them to vote them back into office?

Because everyone should know by now the same people will be delivering the exact same punishment. I just don't see how they can win the House again- and would not be shocked if the GOP also flips the Senate. If people aren't convinced by now this krewe has to go, I'm not sure they ever will be.

It's pretty amazing that the opposition STILL thinks they are in control of things.

Like we vote based on how much money a party raises.

Having the bigger war chest definitely helps.

Here in AZ Mark Kelly has over $25 million yet to spend after spending over $20 million on his Senatorial campaign.

Blake Masters' campaign has $1.6 million.

And it's taking a toll. Kelly is running negative ads 24/7 and Masters is fading in the polls, even though Kelly is selling himself as something he's clearly not - a moderate in a slightly red/slightly purple state where Biden's approval rating is below 40%.

Once again, explain to me why I should vote for you when your party's policies have made everything WORSE across the board.

We already how the dug-in Dims & Repubs are voting- so forget them. What could they possibly tell the independents that convinces them "worse is better"?
