Republican Voters Across Pennsylvania Are Much Less Wedded to Trump Than You Think

DOYLESTOWN, Pennsylvania—Richard Tems was about as loyal a Trump supporter as you can get.

The Bucks County businessman and GOP committeeman has fiercely defended former President Donald Trump in editorials, interviews with reporters, and conversations with anyone within earshot. He voted for Trump twice and believed he was the right president at the right time.

However, eight years after the New York businessman and entertainer came down the escalator in Trump Tower in June 2015, Tems said he would move on in next year’s Pennsylvania primary. He plans to vote instead for Governor Ron DeSantis, R-Fla., for the Republican nomination for president.

“Why? Well, because DeSantis has done a brilliant job in Florida. He took a tiny little victory the first time, and he turned that state dark red by implementing good conservative policies. He brought in the right kind of people, and he turned that state from being purple, or occasionally blue, to very red,” Tems said.

Tems said what Trump did brilliantly was recognize the public was unhappy with the governing class. But “DeSantis knows that to win, you have to build coalitions, and that is what he did,” Tems said. “He spent four years governing conservatively and building a coalition that not only gave him a win last November, it had coattails for all Republican candidates.”

By the time the dust cleared in Florida last year, there were no statewide elected Democrats left standing for the first time in modern politics. DeSantis won reelection over former Gov. Charlie Crist, D-Fla., by a whopping 19 percentage points, even carrying Democratic Miami-Dade and Palm Beach counties.

"Ok, well looks I get the last word then."

Not quite. Weird that such a thing is so important to you. So post one more time so your bruised ego can think it accomplished something.

Besides demonstrating to everyone what a kook you are, that is.

I’ll be very honest I find it a big turn off. When I hear any politician speaking and giving me their accomplishments with a loud megaphone for years touting everything they do as about “me” instead of “we” I start to get weary very quickly. I quickly get to the point I do not want to hear them.

No. I will NOT accept it. If I accept it, that means that you agree that we should end humanity. It’s really that simple.

The election was STOLEN. FULL STOP.

Do I have to post the massive, massive proof that it happened? And do you really, really think that Biden got over 81 million votes? And what makes you think that WE can “harvest” votes without the Left effing THOSE up as well?

Bottom line: if you don’t fix the damn election process, then we are all doomed. It’s that simple, and cannot be denied. And if you still think the election was NOT stolen, then you are a fool and nothing more than a useful idiot.

Is Trump in office?

No.

Therefore, he lost.

Was there fraud?

Absolutely.

Was it proven?

Not in a court of law (don’t make excuses, they are not all against Trump)

Time to move forward, stop talking about it and win elections.

Once we win, we can then fix the rules that allow the legal and illegal fraud to take place.

Those who support our side all agree on this. We only need a chunk of independents to win.

Those independents do not want to hear about the past. They want solutions for Biden’s horrible economy.

Let’s shut up and win.
