David Perdue: Boy, I Can't Wait Until We Can Start Cutting Deals With President Biden!!!
When Christine O'Donnell beat Mike Castle in the Delaware Senate primary, I stopped criticizing her and I stopped saying she would lose.
I told cobloggers like Gabe to lay off. Before the primary, I felt it was my duty to tell people she would lose. But not after it. After the primary I felt peace. I'd done my duty. And there wasn't anything more I can do. I feel the same way now about the Senate Republicans. They've now chosen to lose the Senate. I can't persuade them to stop losing it. They're determined to lose. This has nothing to do with little old me. They're actively demoralizing the base and gleefully spiting the base with every word and every vote. I -- you, we -- have warned them again and again: This is how you commit political suicide. We try to tell them what we, as constituents, actually want. They ignore us, and get the "straight dope" about what the base wants from Noted Tribunes of the People such as The Bulwark, The Dispatch, and National Review, and various Koch-suckers at neoliberal AEI like Tim Carney. See, that's where you get accurate reports of what the vox populi is saying. Right? Right. We keep telling them: You can either win as populists, or lose as corporatists. But they keep deciding to see if they can squeak out a bare 1% win as corporatists. And they will keep doing so until 30 of them fail out of the Senate. You can't stop a suicidal person from committing suicide. At some point -- they will find the razor. They will find the pills. Once again, I will sit back in silence and let people enjoy their own choices.I can't stop the Party of Losers from losing. I'll more or less stop talking about the Senate in an electoral context. There is nothing the GOP can do about it now, and there is nothing I can do about it, and there is nothing you guys can do about it. And after they lose the Senate and deliver one-party control to the Democrats, they can write another post-election autopsy stating that what really did the GOP in was not giving amnesty to illegals and expanding immigration from one to three million per year. Again.
The GOPe can't even fake it until after the runoff election. They can't sell us out fast enough.The Stupid Party's gonna stupid.

I didn’t think this was real. No way would Perdue suggest Biden and McConnell will cut deals and work together. But he did... https://t.co/0px3WTSieu

School Board they probably don't care about. But no one* will get farther than that in professional politics if they are not in the good graces of whichever party they run on.
The parties set up the system so that they get to decide who gets the media attention, who gets the endorsements, who gets the financial and logistical support of the state or national parties. Without that, no one will ever see or hear your name until they see the ballot on primary day.
*there are a few exceptions, namely Trump.

I agree. However, if I were Trump I'd wait to see how Dec. 14th will go, and if signs point to bad, then make my move, but not until then. It's necessary to at least keep up the appearances of 'playing by the rules' even when you know your opponent doesn't. It matters in justifying your position to the public, whose support - or at least non-interference - will be important.

There may be some benefits to a "GOP controlled" Senate, depending on how they behave.
But make no mistake.
You are trapped. As noted by me and many others forever, the worse the Dems get, the worse the GOP is allowed to get (and they do, and have).
And you have no choice. The rational choice is to bleed out slower.
And no executive orders about foreign interference are gonna change anything.
And no "fourth box" is going to be opened, or make any difference whatsoever.
And nothing approaching 2010 is going to happen to the GOP, and note that that enormous grass-roots rebellion resulted in precisely bupkis, anyway.
None of the foregoing is really a forecast, just the exhaustion of patience with endlessly repeated baseless escape fantasies that have no basis in experience or common sense.

Meh, once Biden and his replacement Harris are in, Republican members of Congress in states with Dem governors, and Trumps' SCOTUS picks are going to contract Hodgkinson Nonlymphoma. There's too much incentive for that to happen and NO incentive for it to not. They gave that kind of power and incentive to mob rule they can enjoy the results of their stuperfidity.

Right - he did it, so we know it's not only possible, but necessary. So few people pay attention to local stuff, it seems like fertile ground for the kind of insurgency Trump brought to presidential politics. If you live in a town of 30k residents, let's say, with a little bit of money ($10k) and a dedicated team of about a dozen people, you could easily win any election that wasn't rigged.

Basically, it doesn't matter if Biden is hard left or not. It literally doesn't. The USA is going down in flames and nothing he or his friends to the left (or right) of him want to do will save it, or even stop the bleeding.
It's questionable if Trump can save it -- but he's the only one anywhere close.

The people's tribune versus the oligarchs is what this is shaping up to be.
Oligarchies are unstable though and end up cutting each others throats or being conquered/slaughtered by outside forces. They are also nasty, venal, corrupt, and dishonest. If you like read, the depressing politics of the Northern Italian city states during the late Middle Ages and early Renaissance in Machiavelli or John Adam's Defense of the Constitutions of the United States for a shorter version.
Few will fight and die willingly for an oligarchy and end result is usually a strongman (internal sometimes or external) that crushes the oligarchs by either killing them or exile.
The thing is, for a person to give their life in service for their country (or to police an area), being made a sucker and/or dupe is not particularly inspiring.

Correct. anyway, real power is no longer in Congress, not because Congress doesn't formally have power that they could possible exercise if desired, but because Congress refuses to actually act on its own volition and deal with consequences. Assuming you could pull an AOC you'd be no better than AOC -- at least she gets airtime -- and get less done.
My fervent desire is to communicate to Trump and his loyalists - however many or few there are - that this is the Rubicon election and that win or lose the process result, they need cross the river.
We will be with them, even there in person, at risk of our own lives, if necessary.

Democrats want to destroy the USA with foolish 'nude green eels' boondoggles that put taxpayer money in their pockets.

We have to end both parties. Neither one stands for Americans; they are only here to rape and pillage and pretend they mean well.

The dream for GOPe Senators has always been a megacorporation friendly DEM President willing to join with them to enact the policies this country really needs ... massive increases in immigration, massive increases in corporate regulation (which mainly serve to entrench megacorp incumbents, a good couple of foreign interventions each year (makes a senator feel important to send kids off to die), and, best of all, free trade deals with third world countries (since it provides access to third world levels of graft, see e.g., Burisma). And since it's a Dem president, they can do all this all without the Rubes putting the blame on them. "We tried to stop him! Please send more money to the NRSC."

It's been said for years, the GOP is not a legitimate political party, properly understood.
I mean, the ink isn't even dry on the heist and they have already...
- Rewrote immigration law to allow unlimited H1Bs
- Are already working on a DACA "fix."
- Are actively conspiring with Democrats against a GOP President.
The only conceivable way forward is to start agitating for the creation of a new America First/MAGA party.
And that's going to require letting the Donks get control of everything.
Let them overreach.
Their overreaching may create the spark that will light the fuse that will start the war.
And war is what we need.
Because the enemy is not going to stop unless the enemy is crushed.
I simply do not see another way forward that doesn't involve destroying the GOPe.

144 The people's tribune versus the oligarchs is what this is shaping up to be.
Oligarchies are unstable though and end up cutting each others throats or being conquered/slaughtered by outside forces. They are also nasty, venal, corrupt, and dishonest. If you like read, the depressing politics of the Northern Italian city states during the late Middle Ages and early Renaissance in Machiavelli or John Adam's Defense of the Constitutions of the United States for a shorter version.
Few will fight and die willingly for an oligarchy and end result is usually a strongman (internal sometimes or external) that crushes the oligarchs by either killing them or exile.
The thing is, for a person to give their life in service for their country (or to police an area), being made a sucker and/or dupe is not particularly inspiring.

Yup
That's why the cycle ALWAYS seems to go Democracy > Oligarchy > Tyranny....and then sometimes back to Democracy. Not often.
We made a Republic to break that cycle. But human nature may be too strong. Or something else is at work.
But if the Republic isn't worth fighting, killing, and dying for, then Biden, Clinton and McConnell sure as fuck ain't. Mercs will only go so far.

Can Trump prospectively pardon people for crimes they will have maybe be have done in the future? (time travel tense)
Because if he announced a pardon for, say, fifteen assassins to be named later, it would be an interesting constitutional discussion I think.

Well, when the two GA run offs go blue, it'll be a 50/50 senate, and Kamala (as VP) will break ties. Or, possibly, Mitt Romney will just vote with the D's, if not outright caucusing with them.
So, effectively, yes.

I've drove that route every day for years. That section is crazy now and has been for about two weeks. They're doing widening on I-16 and I-95, and modifying the connectors between the two and just started construction there.
So, the speed limit is down to 55 now. It was 65. When it was 65 people drove 70-90 there. Now that the speed is 55 people are driving 60-90 there. Large difference in speeds you see. I've seen all sorts of near misses. There are so many stupid people in this world. I just stay in the far right lane speeding by 14mph at 64. Mostly safe there.
Then I get on I-95 which was 70 but is now lowered to 55. I still keep in far right lane at 64 while cars accelerate around me to 80.
I cut my teeth on ATL 285/75/85 craziness so I can handle this. But some aren't doing very well.

In fact, I'd prefer we had no congress than for these traitors to rule over us.

I've stated it before, the only thing keeping the Democrat Party from dying is the Republican Party, and vice versa. Destroy one and you destroy them both. Maybe then we can replace them with some Parties that actually represent the views of the voters. Or better yet, destroy the union and consolidate the states into separate nations that share similar views and values. Our national divorce, I'm not scared of it, I think everyone would be happier.

This asshole all but said that he can't wait for Trump to be gone and they can get back to the way things used to be cutting deals with Democrats. In other words cutting themselves in on more and more graft. They don't give a shit about America or Americans. It's all about lining their pockets and the pockets of whoever is holding their puppet strings.

This is definitely true. The point of the threat of making the GOP lose the senate is to get them to take action and rectify the election results and put pressure on people to do so.
If they are claiming this amounts to abandoning the GOP, they are saying they are unwilling to try to rectify the election, or believe they can't.
We want Trump FIRST, then you can have the Senate. If you cannot get us Trump, you DO NOT get the Senate. That is the order.

Oligarchies are unstable though and end up cutting each others throats or being conquered/slaughtered by outside forces. They are also nasty, venal, corrupt, and dishonest. If you like read, the depressing politics of the Northern Italian city states during the late Middle Ages and early Renaissance in Machiavelli or John Adam's Defense of the Constitutions of the United States for a shorter version."
The best current example of Oligarchy morphing into Tyranny is Putin's Russia, as Putin appears to have cemented his personal control over all of it. Still, he's making the classic mistake of almost all dictators, that of not having any clearly defined or prepared successor. So, whenever Putin is out of the picture, all of the Oligarchs will happily grab whatever bits and pieces of power that they can.

Posted by: Blago at December 04, 2020 05:36 PM (hcE6S)
I agree on going ahead and trying to win these seats. However, this presents two problems.
-one, if we let them blatantly steal the presidential election, then it will not matter if people DO vote. There is a priority here to the multiple problems we face.
-two, if we go ahead and hand the GOP the majority, what will they do with it?
My priority remains: If elections can be blatantly stolen, then there is no point to any of this and we need to start planning for other eventualities. This whole thing has left me in a bind. If elections are not sacrosanct and cannot be trusted for results (and to be honest we are far beyond simply not trusting them- we know they are stealing this one) then what do we do?
There are a few options, but each one is a mess where it is hard to control the outcome, even if we were all on the same page. However refusal to act means we will be telling the Dems: Go ahead and steal every election, our freedom and rights mean nothing to us.

I disagree. This is not about intrusive government or some shit like that. This is about making the government work for the American people. If you come out as a milquetoast non-interventionalist rather than a 'we will use the government's powers to benefit you' you will lose.
If you can get enough power to really do things, you can simply not do things and repeal things to redelegate powers. But at the moment, you need government power to crush the left. No excuses.

banning abortion are seen as that in spades. Very hard to argue you're
the party against intrusive government and the party of banning abortion
at the same time.
Posted by: Eric Schmidt at December 04, 2020 05:45 PM (YkawN)
I disagree. This is not about intrusive government or some shit like that. This is about making the government work for the American people. If you come out as a milquetoast non-interventionalist rather than a 'we will use the government's powers to benefit you' you will lose.
If you can get enough power to really do things, you can simply not do things and repeal things to redelegate powers. But at the moment, you need government power to crush the left. No excuses.

As Milton Friedman said, it's about getting the wrong people to do the right thing. Purdue and Leoffler are the wrong people but not nearly as wrong as Ossoff and Warnock who are completely incapable of doing the right thing. Purdue and Leoffler did vote with Trump while they were in there, they will again when he's sworn in again. If Biden is sworn in then they'll stab the base in the back, no surprise there.

I understand your point - there are structures in place that favor preferred actors, insiders, etc. But I believe it's entirely possible to build power bases from grassroots efforts like this because I've seen it happen. Paul Wellstone drove around Minnesota in an old school bus and ended up in the Senate. Arnold Schwarzenegger got elected governor of the biggest state. Trump, who had never even ran for public office, won the presidency. It might seem naive considering the degree of faith efforts like these demand, but it is possible.

Very hard to argue you're the party against intrusive government and the party of banning slavery at the same time.

[SNIP stuff about Trump declassifying everything]
However, if I were Trump I'd wait to see how Dec. 14th will go, and if signs point to bad, then make my move, but not until then. It's necessary to at least keep up the appearances of 'playing by the rules' even when you know your opponent doesn't. It matters in justifying your position to the public, whose support - or at least non-interference - will be important.

Kept her in her home town so she could be near friends and her church.... friends who are now all dead, and she can't even go to funerals... and church, which is closed.

And appearing with Loeffler, who I assume is also begging for money even though she's a billionaire. If her campaign needs money, perhaps she should ask her sugar daddy.

He got so butthurt about Trump winning that he gave nothing in 2018 or 2020 to ANY GOP candidate -- not Trump, not the RNC, not the NRCC, not WINRED, NOTHING.
Kurt couldn't be bothered to throw $20 to Parnell, or Klacik, or John James or any other number of races that needed to be won in 2020 against the Democrats?
But boy will Kurt Schlichter talk up a good game about how he is an All-Star Conservative (provided you buy his books or throw ad revenue his way).

It's not about just losing an election or two: they will push through changes (packing the Supreme Court, admitting DC/PR, national mandate for mail-in voting, giving full citizenship to anyone who steps across the border) that will literally make it impossible to ever win an election again, perhaps for 100+ years.

270 Eric Schmidt's Great Great Grandfather, in 1860:
and don't run on slavery. it's fine if you really hate slavery, but if you base your definition of "real conservative" on banning slavery, you won't win. average people aren't really attracted by busybody Karens, and people who are obsessed with banning slavery are seen as that in spades. Very hard to argue you're the party against intrusive government and the party of banning slavery at the same time.

Uh, Lincoln did not run on freeing the Slaves. He ran on keeping the status quo.

Saw the writing on the wall, moved to Colorado, raised by Kids there.
Moved back to Cali to take care of Mom 10 years ago (thought it
would only be a couple of years... or I would have insisted she move,
not me).
Kept her in her home town so she could be near friends and her

One of Trump's NYC business mentors drilled into him always to stay within the law [OK, you can debate various things is his life, but], and similarly use the law against his competitors. Part of his problem might be that he expects the law to work as it ought. The NYC business world obviously has some intersection with politics, but orders of magnitude less than the DC milieu.

My grandmother was up to $12,000 a month, and the employees were exactly what you would expect in minimum wage senior care employees in CA. she passed 4 years ago, and I imagine the price has only gone higher, and the staff have not become less resentful about having to support a family on $12 an hour. Time for a very frank discussion with her, and time to get the hell out of there.

Libertarian conservatives don't exist. Libertarians promise to do less with government power, which means they promise to look the other way while leftists use government power. It is an arms race, and the only options other than losing are to win or quit. Libertarians pretend like you can win by not playing, which you can't. The only way to win is to use the power for yourself and your own, and this is the fact of politics.
Quitting involves moving somewhere else, but there are vanishing few of those places to go.

Well, the ONE thing that might make me vote R were I a Georgian in the special is this:
you KNOW Upchuck Schumer is chomping at the bit to take the big boy's chair in the senate.
Denying him that, in this case, would be rather nice. A pure spite-vote.

-------------------
I'm sure Toomey, as well as other Reps in the Senate who would be up for reelection in 2022, figure a Dem in the White House is their past path to reelection. That would follow the typical, historical electoral pattern.
I guess time will tell if the pattern holds or they end up punished from a direction on the political spectrum they weren't expecting.

They started pushing that story before anyone said not to support them. At first it looked like the Left was pushing it to make that idea happen, but now I think the Republicans were pushing it because they want to kill Trumpism and would prefer two years in the minority to Trump getting any credit at all.

Posted by: Mr. Meeseeks, Look at me at December 04, 2020 05:56 PM (2DOZq)
That was what the Republican 'base' wanted, or one of them, but Lincoln was very clearly not an abolitionist when he ran.
The South may not have believed it, but it's very clear in all his speeches and letters.
Posted by: Mark Andrew Edwards, Trump WON, buy guns at December 04, 2020 05:57 PM (ifmtJ)
You mean not a radical abolitionist. He was a compromise candidate between two factions of the Republican party, both aiming to abolish slavery but at different rates.
I don't think it was unreasonable for the South to interpret Lincoln as meaning the eventual abolition of slavery.
Posted by: Warlord Someguy - General Who Pacifies The East and West at December 04, 2020 05:59 PM (Zm+LZ)
He'd spoken against Slavery, yes. And he was opposed to the Kansas Nebraska Act, as well as expansion of slavery. But he was Moderate compared to many in the Republican Party.
He would have left slavery intact in a hot second if it meant avoiding civil war. He said as much, in public.
But the fire was too hot and he couldn't cool it. Just by being elected, several states began rebellion and...there it went.

Yeah. And the Republican party was not formed to be an anti-slavery party. They were formed because the whig party was looking a whole lot like the Republican party of 2020. Corrupt, inept, and not representing the people.
If you read Lincoln's private letters, you'll see he made variations of the statement "if I could preserve the union by keeping slavery, abolishing some slavery, or abolishing all slavery, I would. It would make no different to me." (paraphrasing.)
It's all public record.
This "the civil war was about Republicans trying to stop slavery" stuff was made up many years after the fact.

Many in the south felt that the vote wasn't quite on the up and up.
Also, there was considerable anger over tariffs that seemed to be designed hurt southern exports (crops), while helping the north's industry (by making it very expensive to import anything made abroad.)
The civil war was, like anything else, very complicated, with a lot of moving pieces, a lot of different motivations and a lot of discontent.

It's not about just losing an election or two: they will push through changes (packing the Supreme Court, admitting DC/PR, national mandate for mail-in voting, giving full citizenship to anyone who steps across the border) that will literally make it impossible to ever win an election again, perhaps for 100+ years.

If you read Lincoln's private letters, you'll see he
made variations of the statement "if I could preserve the union by
keeping slavery, abolishing some slavery, or abolishing all slavery, I
would. It would make no different to me." (paraphrasing.)
It's all public record.
This "the civil war was about Republicans trying to stop slavery" stuff was made up many years after the fact.
Posted by: Harry Paratestes at December 04, 2020 06:03 PM (UPoLF)
Correct. Slavery in itself was not a problem, but the fact of slavery was. Some were offended by it because it involved black people, some because it involved owning people, some because it involved people other than them owning people.
But Lincoln was focused on the political union itself, which as an entity was more valuable than a moral victory (either way; robbing many people of their possessions, even if those were people, is not a moral victory any more than enslaving people is.)
I suspect this rewrite took place in FDR's era, or more precisely during the Civil Rights Era to paper over the history partially. It's not that slavery wasn't important, it's just that to people in the 1960's, the Union being strongly anti-slavery was important to tell the story of how their ending Jim Crow was part of an 'arc' of history.
Ending Jim Crow was similar; it did end political humiliation for many blacks, but it also broke up black communities and destroyed many black businesses and livelihoods.
Remember that when we win, we will also need to understand how to tell the arc of history up to our current time. Clearly ours favors the less edited history - the preservation of a God-given and hard-won union against forces of globalism who would sell it out or break it up for their own profits.

Many in the south felt that the vote wasn't quite on the up and up.
Also, there was considerable anger over tariffs that seemed to be designed hurt southern exports (crops), while helping the north's industry (by making it very expensive to import anything made abroad.)
The civil war was, like anything else, very complicated, with a lot of moving pieces, a lot of different motivations and a lot of discontent.
Posted by: Harry Paratestes at December 04, 2020 06:08 PM (UPoLF)
The part about tariffs seems like agitprop to me. Those tariffs didn't come into existence under Lincoln or the Rs, and the Ds were the more dominant party, even having a lock on government for a while with the Whigs gone. If it was upsetting to the South, it's an issue of the D party screwing their constituents. Them screwing their constituents is quite plausible since many were tight with well-to-do northern industrialists.

Reminds me of the old joke, last question on the medical exam. If you get this question wrong, they won't let you be a doctor.
You have a patient come in to your office, you have a fairly standard office visit with him, but just as he's leaving your office, he keels over. Dead.
What do you do?
The correct answer: You turn him around, make it look like he's just coming in.

The LIVs on both sides kind of wake up with a governor's race or presidential race, but by then it's too late. Even the Newsom recall in CA will make no difference whatsoever with a veto-proof majority.

As to why someone's donation of $5 is captured- who knows.
But you used that to "prove" that if Kirk Schilcter donated any amount, it would show up on a FEC search.

"To save postage or meet the deadline, filled in ballots can be dropped off at the Macon-Bibb County Board of Elections before 7 p.m. on Jan. 5 or placed in a secure absentee ballot drop box."
I suspect the Democrat will go to court and sue for that to be extended after Jan 5th.

You can double check my work by going to FEC website itself, click campaign finance data, and then clicking "Lookup contributions by individuals" (off to the right). Scrolls all the way down and click on "Contribution Detail" (left hand side) and entering values of $5 to $10 and clicking the black arrow to enter. It will return same results.
You might want to send an email to the FEC that they aren't following those rules/regulations you cited.

ACTBLUE is NOT an unconnected PAC. --- ACTBLUE is the Democrats MAJOR fundraising arm and the same as the Republicans WINRED.
And you are ignoring that the FEC has 42,000,000 records of $5 - $10 donations. When you search Kurt's name there is nothing after 2016 for any amount.
I searched my OWN name and it has the 3x $5 donations to WINRED (Parnell), 2x $20 to my state GOP, and 1x $50 donation to Trump (Trump Victory).
So no you are wrong.

And you are ignoring that the FEC has 42,000,000 records of $5 - $10 donations. When you search Kurt's name there is nothing after 2016 for any amount.
I searched my OWN name and it has the 3x $5 donations to WINRED (Parnell), 2x $20 to my state GOP, and 1x $50 donation to Trump (Trump Victory).
So no you are wrong.

So I'd vote for Perdue just to deny Hollyweird the Ossoff victory. I'd vote for Loeffler because I think Lin Wood is right, and probably has the goods on her, and it's well past time that we had a Senator do the perp walk. Sweet cheeks is as good a candidate as any to be the one to do it, but the only way to get to revel in that is to reelect her sorry ass.

449 Your trollish behavior is being displayed here. Go play somewhere else with someone who is willing.
Let me say it to you in small words since you have reading comprehension issues--not all campaigns or PACs report small donations--some do. It is not required but some do it anyway because campaign finance chairs can be legally held responsible.
There are more things in heaven and earth (and FEC laws and regulations) than dreamt of in your post.

FEC data for individual contributions ($5 - $10) for WINRED.
WINRED (from Google): "Is an American Republican Party fundraising platform endorsed by the Republican National Committee. It was launched to compete with the Democrat Part's success in online grassroots fundraising with their platform ACTBLUE."
More: "The GOP, the Trump re-election campaign, and other state-wide and local races across the US used the platform with nearly 800 campaigns using the platform."
FEC results returned for WINRED ($5 - 10$) -- 6,120,000 individuals.

Sidney Powell has the answer (of course).
Georgians need to make it loud and clear that if they are to come to the polls, the electoral system must first be FIXED:
"Loeffler and Perdue haven't even spoken out for President Trump on this. I mean, 'What the hell?'
The Republican Party is nowhere to be found on this fraud issue, which leads me to think that they're as complicit in it as anybody else.
The American people are a hell of a lot smarter than the politicians want to give us credit for and we are 100% fed up with all of them.
... Absolutely demand a completely new Senate race, on a paper ballot that everybody can trust, and bipartisan counting of them in full transparency.
And demand a special session of the legislature.
There should be a downballot race on everything, all over, from the Senate on down, in GA. There really should be. And they could put it off a little longer if they needed to.
But it is imperative to get this right, and every public official in GA ought to be demanding it now."
https://tinyurl.com/y6mjfgcu [towards the end]
Earlier, she says that GA is the ONLY state that mandates using Dominion though the WHOLE state.
She also says she thinks the Dems stole up to 6 Senate seats in The Steal, and 10 in the House. House, Senate, POTUS ALL legitimately belong to Republicans.
Anyway, if the GA governor is Republican, and bought the system, doesn't it follow that system should be rigged FOR Republicans? Maybe it's a "Biden situation" where they don't NEED real voters to show.
More likely, that governor is working for somebody ELSE though. Somebody who wants a Dem Senate.
Having token Republicans here and there are perhaps part of the gaslighting scheme, telling us we have two political parties, when in fact we have one.

294 Sorry if Kurt Schlichter is "your boy" but the man is a small c - "conservative" Blue Check grifter.
Don't believe me? Go look at his FEC individual contributions for the last 3 election cycles (2016, 2018, 2020). He stopped donating to ANYONE after he spent $3,000 on Cruz in 2016. He got so butthurt about Trump winning that he gave nothing in 2018 or 2020 to ANY GOP candidate -- not Trump, not the RNC, not the NRCC, not WINRED, NOTHING.
Kurt couldn't be bothered to throw $20 to Parnell, or Klacik, or John James or any other number of races that needed to be won in 2020 against the Democrats?
But boy will Kurt Schlichter talk up a good game about how he is an All-Star Conservative (provided you buy his books or throw ad revenue his way).

He's just a big mouth CA "conservative" who said he was coming to NV to help with the anti-fraud effort here but ran home when he got a very minor case of covid, then went on the radio with some clown on Sirius and talked shit about the ability to prove fraud, and basically was chortlling about having Biden as president. I assume he thinks it will make him bunches of money as a Faux News Contributor as a proud leader of the opposition. Hell, we're small potatoes and we sent cash to John James and Sean Parnell.

Re: Declassification.
To me, Barrs' appointment of the do-nothing Durham as a Special Counsel may be a way to stop Trump from declassifying info, as ir is "part of an active investigation" or to give cover for doing nothing about these crimes, "we could have arrested them, but Orangemanbad spoiled it all by tellingbthe American people the truth."
Georgia runoff. If not for a stolen election, this would not be necessary. For the GOPe to join the DemonRats and to cede control of the Federal govt to them is, at this point, merely target identification.
As for these RINOs, and those who control and finance the DemonRats, let people like Pierre and Lyan Ryan lead the way to the lamp posts. Some assembly required.

Holy Cow!
For four years, the Democrats actively sought to thwart Trump at every turn. And give him nothing in the form of law, so everything could be overturned with an EO.
The Republicans can't even wait until it's clear whether Trump air Biden wins this thing, before-
bending over and oiling up their hindquarters for Schumer and Starap-on Pelosi to have their way with them.
Welp...the mission for all 75 million Trump voters over the next four years is to make sure that every single Republican House and Senate member gets voted out no matter who they are.

But it is. If the Democrats get the Senate, they will abolish the filibuster making every GOP Senator completely useless and powerless. Who is going to bribe them then.

He's blaming the possible Georgia Senate debacle on the Old Guard GOP?
It has nothing to do with Trump's dimwitted lawyers telling people that unless the candidates admit the election was stolen, they should stay home in January?
It has nothing to do with Trump encouraging this idiocy?
He can't even find the guts to be honest about any of this.
It makes me laugh when I think of Ace's remarks early in the post-election confusion: "Fuck you. War."
Yea, Ace the jellyfish is a real badass.
