Laser-focused on 2020, Trump seeks a Michigan Legislature that could help him in 2024
NBC News ^ | November 27, 2021 | Allan Smith and Henry J. Gomez

Posted on 11/27/2021 7:10:27 AM PST by Dr. Franklin

It’s unusual for a former president to endorse in races so deep down the ballot, especially nearly nine months before the Republican primary. But Trump has backed seven candidates for state House or Senate seats in Michigan, an electoral battleground that he lost narrowly to Joe Biden last year — more than anywhere else. Most of the endorsements, including Rocha’s, were announced in recent weeks. All of the candidates have one thing in common: They’ve made election administration and investigating last year’s vote central to their platforms.

Trump’s focus on the state illuminates just how driven he is to exact revenge on those who haven’t supported his baseless claim that the last election was stolen from him. It’s also a play to install allies who could be helpful should he run for president again in 2024 and find himself locked in another close race. The Republican-controlled Legislature spent eight months investigating the results of the 2020 presidential election and found no reason to doubt their legitimacy. ...

“Michigan needs a new legislature,” Trump wrote in his Nov. 15 endorsement of Rachelle Smit for state representative. “The cowards there now are too spineless to investigate Election Fraud.”

“President Trump is committed to saving America and saving Michigan by endorsing and supporting candidates up and down the ballot who will fight for his America First agenda,” Taylor Budowich, a Trump spokesperson, said in a statement to NBC News.

But Trump has made it clear that denying the results of the 2020 presidential election is central to his support, if not his agenda.

“There are so many great Trump people in Michigan,” he wrote in his endorsement of Rocha. “I love Michigan. It has some of the best people, and some of the worst elected officials.”

Trump is cleaning house of the RINO excrement. Win enough MAGA state legislatures in 2022, and an Article V convention becomes possible to reform D.C., the Deep State, and possibly remove from office those who certified a stolen election contrary to the Guarantee Clause of Article IV.

MI-GOP response to the industrial scale ballot fraud in Michigan was pusillanimous, emasculating, and deserving of a South African style Truth and Reconciliation Commission.

President Trump knows the election was stolen, no matter how much the communists at NBC try to deny it. The only way to keep it from happening again is to clean house.

“fight for his America First agenda”

Did you ever think in a million years growing up, especially if you lived through the Reagan years that “America first” or “Make America great” would be considered offensive, portrayed as offensive by the media and the democrap party to the point where they tag it as being racist and white supremacist?

This is exactly why I call them “domestic enemies”. Who else thinks like this BUT enemies of the USA?? This is the kind of mentality those psychos in Iran have with their “The great Satan America” or “Death to America” comments. How the F can you be offended by making somewhere you live great?? The logic of these morons is pure insanity “I hate my house and want to destroy it”.

I stopped at “baseless”. Challenged, questioned, controversial....but they won’t give a ounce of legitimacy to the thought.

Hundreds to thousands of sworn affidavits attesting to witnessed election fraud is not 'baseless'.

The authors are 2-bit propagandists spewing garbage.

Revenge, by having standards?

It’s also a play to install allies who could be helpful should he run for president again in 2024 and find himself locked in another close race. The Republican-controlled Legislature spent eight months investigating the results of the 2020 presidential election and found no reason to doubt their legitimacy. ...


‘No reason?’ There has been plenty of reason to doubt their legitimacy regardless of the specific outcome. At most there is lack of specific proof that he won the state - because even beyond the pre-election manipulation, there was such a muddled mess that one cannot say with a high degree of certainty whether and which votes cast were by legitimate voters submitting a single ballot.

“‘No reason?’ There has been plenty of reason to doubt their legitimacy regardless of the specific outcome.”

I put some numbers together on how massive the cheating was in the battleground states. Remember this growth is on top of normal cheating the Dems always do. In MI Biden got over 500,000 more votes in fewer black communities than Obama in his prime as I mention below.

15,157,659 (2020) - 12,097,016 (2016)= A 3,060,643 Dem Voter Participation Gain in the 7 Battleground States, up 25% as opposed to the normal (with cheating) 2-3% gain. Biden beat Obama in every black community in the nation. Nationally, Biden exceeded the last election votes totals by over 10,000,000 with winning the fewest counties in Presidential history. He won 10% fewer counties than Obama, yet massively received more votes in these minority counties (when Obama was the great savior of the black community).

Before anyone says well they had more mail-in voters, of course, they did, that’s how they cheated! They dumped around 500,000 extra votes in most states except two (those dumps happened early morning in a few hour span). The two left they only added a few hundred thousand.

One thing we are letting slide is Facebook’s $400,000,000 contributions in staffing the cheating. The cheating was well funded by big tech along with the censoring. I don’t think the dems would have been able to cheat so massively without Facebook’s help.

GA
1,773,827 Obama
1,837,300 Clinton GA
2,473,633 Biden (+35%)

You don't focus a laser - its light is already in-phase and wavelength is also in-phase.

When I hear people with letters behind their names use this phrase I stop listening.

The world has changed in ways I never expected. The fall of the Soviet colossus, combined with the industrialization of China changed the world from a bi-polar world into the modern globalist structure that stole the 2020 election. In many ways, Trump is the political heir to Reagan. Trump completed the switch of working class Americans to the Republican party from a worthless neo-liberal Dem party. The Bush family and their ilk, are the RINOs, who object to the needs of working class Americans. They need to get kicked out of the Republican party.

This is exactly why I call them “domestic enemies”. Who else thinks like this BUT enemies of the USA?? This is the kind of mentality those psychos in Iran have with their “The great Satan America” or “Death to America” comments. How the F can you be offended by making somewhere you live great??

It's more like they hate their fellow Americans and want to subjugate them to the globalist agenda they favor and promote. History will prove that the Bidet Regime is the result of O'Bomber cutting deals with foreign nations to steal the election and insure that our governing elites put globalism before MAGA nationalism. Covid was a biological attack created by our enemies. People died, and those responsible need to be held accountable, by which I mean arrested, tried, convicted and then lawfully executed according to our laws. Hang 'em high and set an example for future traitors and conspirators.

After the last "election" was stolen, Donald said that overcoming election fraud was the sine qua non of a healthy country.

He's doing what he said he would do.

I like the idea of winning super majorities in the state legislatures in 2022, and then using those lopsided numbers to call an Article V constitutional convention to address the fraudulent 2020 election. I favor banning anyone who certified the fraudulent presidential electors, and possibly Congressional elections, from ever holding federal office again, as was done to the Confederates after the Civil War. This would get rid of the pit of vipers inhabiting the Congress by forced term limits.

It hasn't even started. The Republican posers lined up to stab Trump in the back. Lessons learned. Never forgot. Payback will be a b*tch. The rules have changed.

Yes, the key is "Obama in his prime".

What's interesting about Michigan is the WAY they cheated.

Michigan is unusual in that it has a big city Republican stronghold in Kent County and adjoining Ottawa County (the cities of Grand Rapids and Holland).

Biden actually "won" Kent County [home of Assistant Democrat scumbags Justin Amash and Pete Meijer] and had huge numbers in Ottawa County.

Here's the interesting part:

In the neighboring Democrat county of Muskegon [which has historically had a large black population], Trump nearly beat Biden, and Biden's turnout was actually lower than Obama's 2008 turnout!

The colluders didn't need Muskegon, and it was off the beaten path for mail-in ballot fraud, so they left it alone.

Which means that we're seeing TRUE numbers for Biden-Trump turnout in Michigan in Muskegon County.

I'm also convinced that they were throwing away Trump votes in Wayne County.

Note that Trump lost in Muskegon County by 500 votes, where McCain lost by nearly 25,000 votes...

The pattern that repeats itself is that the RINOs made sure that Trump "lost" in Red states like GA, and cities like Maricopa County, AZ. I'm sure the pattern repeats itself in other places. People who think this was just Dems stuffing the ballot boxes in the big cities don't understand what really happened. Trump and the MAGA movement were stabbed in the back by the RINOs. They must be banished from the party.
