    The recent elections were a mixed bag, and will make campaign managers on both sides worried.

    Anyone running for office for the next couple of years will feel like a mouse in a bowling alley. At any moment you could get flattened.

    Republicans need to focus on all of the disasters/crisises during the Biden admin. They run on that, they will win 2024 easily. They need to stop harping on 2020 as that is all the dems have to run on

    They'll run on Replacement Theory like they did in 2016. Who knows, - maybe it'll work again. They might even go with the "Mexico will pay for it" line again.

    If Republicans can run a somewhat moderate NON-MAGA person, I might just vote for them if it comes down to them and Biden. But I will not ever vote for Trump or anyone he has endorsed or is connected in any way with the MAGA nonsense. If I wanted to vote for stupidity and troll politics, I would just vote progressive.

    Said in a thread where the OP shows a picture of the night before the Charlotte Riot that happened in 2017 and talks about a past Presidential election of both 2016 and 2020.

    Also said in spite of the fact that Dems are always bringing up slavery from 200 years ago.

    You don't own a mirror do you?

    Mexico enforced the border for a little while. So the fact is, we got a lot more cooperation from Mexico in sealing the Border

    I have a number of mirrors. But I still think the GOP spends too much time in the past.

    Bullshirt. The rigging was rigged. The election was honest but the attempt to say it wasn't was and is the most dishonest electoral phenomena I've ever seen

    The investigators are mostly Republicans and many of the judges were Trump appointees. They couldn't find any evidence.

    Republicans are in denial about the 2020 election
    Democrats are in denial about the 2024 election

    All the GOP has to do is run on the failures of the Biden Administration. Every time that Biden tries to deflect blame for the rising Gas Prices and Inflation of the Russians, it is a win for the GOP. Every time he ignores the crisis at the border, it is a win for the GOP. Hell, every time he opens his mouth just to babble incoherently or is ushered off the state so he cannot give ad-lib answers, it is a win for the GOP. All that the GOP has to do is run on Biden's deflections, babbles and his ignoring facts. They will win by a landslide.

    Here is how it is going to play out. The GOP will gain control of both Houses in 2023. They will then spend the next two years writing legislature that will make it to the President's desk. The President will then pull an Obama. He will veto the legislature and try to legislate by EO. That will push more and more US Citizens to vote for whomever wins the GOP primaries. Before, you say it, I seriously doubt it will be Trump. He will be willing to be relegated to being the President-maker as opposed to being the President. If the DNC does not move back towards a centrist attitude, it will be the end to the DNC.

    Relentless negativity is not a political platform.

    It is true that the President's and Trump's approval/disapproval levels are presently comparable (https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/other/other/FavorabilityRatingsPoliticalLeaders.html)

    Global inflation is, inevitably, blamed on a POTUS, but the GOP's internecine struggle between conservatives and the RINOs of Trumpery - based largely upon electoral denial, evidence-free grievances, and personal vendettas - will have to be resolved.

    Reality will have to be honestly confronted.

    the Left have already shown they can blatantly steal an election and get away with it and their UIs will forever avow that it was "fair and honest"

    I doubt Dems have won a "fair and honest" election in a 150 years.

    Those are "crises"?

    BTW, "inflation" and "gas prices" are part of the same issue---higher demand without production to meet demand. Biden has nothing to do with either. And "babt formula shortage" is Biden's fault, how? The rest of the goofy list is a series of memes used by RW kooks.

    As an aside, Biden has handled Putin's gross miscalculation beautifully. Bringing an international coalition together that Bonespurs had all but destroyed was a master stroke---that's what real leadership looks like.

    I'd voted Republican in the past, but refuse to do so again until they fix their refusal to hold people accountable for their conduct and their refusal to take the rule of law seriously

    You notice how most of the "Biden disasters" are imaginary or had their genesis in the Trump (mal)administration?

    *LOL*

    So blatant, in fact, that no evidence of this theft even exists!

    Trump-appointed judges have blatantly laughed Stop the Steal kooks out of court for failing to present evidence.

    Are you quite sure that the last election was stolen? Are you relying on what you hear repeated over and over and over again by professional liars, or do you have some compelling evidence that has, for whatever reason, never been presented to the courts and the public?

    "But even without the public examination of the notorious Hunter Biden laptop, “2000 Mules” lets the cat out of the bag; we now know that Trump thoroughly trounced Biden in every one of the key swing states."


    2020 worked well for Trump.. had it not been stolen. Don't know what has changed to keep future elections for being stolen.
