Let's read this article again after the Republicans take back the House.

-4 ( +4 / -8 )

The actual facts are that the 2022 elections will be a "blood bath" for the Democrat's because of Trumps endorsement's !!! The Rhinos will need to start looking for new jobs !

Donald J. Trump never conceded. there are 2 Presidents. You can't have 2 Presidents so one must be a false President. Wait and see what happens before 2022.

Thank you.

Thank you.

If you believe that then you must hope all those voting restriction bills being passed in Red States keep the Dems from the polls...

It's clear from the data that most Repub voters will be in the ICU or the grave by 2022...

As for Trump's endorsement, let's ask some if those who he incited and vowed to "fight to the death" on Jan 6th...

They're all now copping a plea and saying they were "duped" by Trump...just ask MAGA-world hero "The Q Shaman"...

And how about Trump's endorsement of the vaccine - saying it's "safe and it works"....not any Trump supporters here buying that....

He will be in prison after Hillary is locked up.

I never heard Mao Tse Tung or Kim Il Sung concede either.

A Trump endorsement is like the kiss of death.

The other day I saw on TV a local candidate who claims to be 'pro-life' (catch phrase for Pavlov dogs), 'anti-PC', 'anti-woke', etc. and behind his image was a giant Hitleresque image of a shreiking Trump.

Not a good endorcement, not a good inspiration. If I were a Republican I'd want no association whatsoever with that loudmouth ill-mannered fascist. It's obvious to everyone what he's all about.

See my previous post. If you associate yourself with a fascist, you are one. Swim like a duck, quack like a duck, is.

Hitler? So you’re going by the worst picture the left wants to pick out, the right does it as well to Biden and Obama previously and they all looked like…well, you said it. Goes both ways.

Not a good endorcement, not a good inspiration.

Maybe not for you, but for other millions of people it definitely is.

Well, like you said, “if” you “were” a Republican, but I’ll submit to you this, there is no one that could bear Trump in the Republican Party, not one, so his popularity and endorsements do hold sway for a lot of people.

It's obvious to everyone what he's all about.

Freedom and individual rights and the pursuit of happiness without the interference of big government.

That won’t happen, what will happen though is Dems won’t be able to fiddle with the system, everyone can vote if they have a proper ID and if not, you can use your last 4 digits of your social and all Americans have a social so, shouldn’t be a problem.

It's clear from the data that most Repub voters will be in the ICU or the grave by 2022...

CNN date doesn’t count.

judging by the polls it seems the people also didn’t forget the Dems carnage they created last summer. Will Nancy put Any of the Minnesota cops on the bench to testify what they went through last summer and how they watch their police station get burned to the ground?

They're all now copping a plea and saying they were "duped" by Trump...just ask MAGA-world hero "The Q Shaman"...

when you put a gun to someone’s head and a prosecutor tells him either confess we’re going to try to get you the maximum as long as we can, anyone would sing. Can’t wait until the very least and then they sue the federal government rear ends off

While some Republican candidates may think the DJT name is gold, others may just be grifters looking for a fund-raising advantage. Win or lose, they leave with lots of campaign cash in the bank.

Well, that depends on who votes on the endorsed person. Genuine conservatives will take the Trump endorsement as a positiv, the lamestream swamp media believers will think it is the sign of satan.
