Trump seems really upset that he is backing Dr Oz in PA. Mitch is correct that when the Reps take a beating in the Senate this fall it will be due to a lack of good candidates running.
Trump supporters can maybe win the primary but they will lose in the general. Or at least in most states.
I really, truly, hope you are correct. I just have this horrible feeling that come results day most of us here are going to be standing back going "how did that happen?" (and no, I don't believe it will have been successfully rigged by the GOP though they will of course try).
Reminds me of 2016. Me, fresh off the Brexit vote, warning everyone wearing their Hilary hats about how the populace might actually be stupider then you thought.
Things are still looking up for Trump. Brian Stelter is gone, presumably for his own actions in attacking Trump endlessly. The networks are finally reacting to their loss in revenue and trying to fix a few things, because they must - not because they see the error in their ways.
The only party that thinks the people are stupid are the Dems and Never-Trumpers who believe they can disinform without getting caught. Fox News and Newsmax are reaping big commercial dollars in spite of the cancel culture doing all they can to block them, like they did OANN. That happens when ratings are high, which Fox News demonstrates. Most people prefer Newsmax, but they don't have the penetration of Fox, yet.
Disinforming is the action of the MSM and Leftwing cable outlets who only devote 10 or fifteen seconds all day to important stories and ignore all old-fashioned news gathering. In order not to be total idiot morons, those who want to get real news are forced to watch elsewhere.
Fired Brian Stelter could't resist a dig at new CNN boss Chris Licht in his final show by saying the network 'must remain strong' and patted himself on the back for his 'patriotic' role as media hall monitor. Almost everyday, Newsmax and Fox would show Stelter's own disinformation and show the real news that contradicted him. Even without commentary, the disinformation was provable. Same elsewhere.
Gutfeld has the highest rated shows on Cable and almost daily would put up Stelter's latest idiocy. It would be funny if it wasn't so sad.
The one thing about Dems which is laudatory, is their solidarity. The talking points are immediate and totally saturated. How many times have you heard the identical sloganeering on every left-wing show? I still remember the "Gravitas" used against Bush 43. It was on every show an every liberal network with total horizontal and vertical saturation for days, until the polls came out that said the people thought Bush had more "gravitas" than his opponent. "Gravitas" disappeared from the airways instantly.
Lemmings may follow carefully scripted clichés and talking points only up to it being slammed in their faces. When that happens, the Democrat talking heads ignore the old, discredited disinformation as if it never existed. The people, lemmings or not, do not forget. The idiot morons you see interviewed on the street may not be able to name the VP, but right-thinking people are not lemmings. In the past, they rarely took the effort to vote. Now, with Zuckerberg illegal ballot boxes and Democrat vote harvesting, The Dems are holding on to a slim (and misrepresented) majority - but they are a minority.
To anyone who disagrees with this, I ask you to look at a single donor who put imbecilic Prosecutors into office all over the country with his millions of dollars being thrown at them. How do you think all those bad prosecutors won their ballots? If you think it was their ideas and philosophies that put them in office, you are deluded. Once their idiocy is recognized - the people fight to get them recalled and thrown out. But the money just keeps on coming in, doesn't it? Let's see if any of those new IRS armed agents go after the Democrat donors.
