@RandPaul

It’s official: ⁦@SpeakerJohnson is no longer the GOP Speaker of the House, but Speaker for the Uniparty’s $1.5T deficit, warrantless spying on Americans, and a foreign aid bill with more deficit spending than Schumer’s budget buster.

I’m talking about national polls, virtually every one shows Biden about even (certainly within the margin of error) with Trump.

I'm not dismissing your point about a certain percentage of the population being brainwashed. I just think it's not 50% or more of the population.

Add to that, the polls do show Trump ahead. And if an election can be hacked, then certainly Corporate Media paid for polls can be hacked.

Beyond all that, my anecdotal observations over the last year in what was supposedely a 50/50 Trump/Biden sprawling diverse suburb says that the population is not moving left.

“Trump voiced his support before Johnson's betrayal manifested. Let's see what Trump says now that Johnson put his name on Biden's bill and rammed through with rat votes.” How long are you willing to wait?

I believe Trump will wait until he thinks he has the leverage to move on Johnson. See what happened to Ronna.

In the mean time, Trump publicly disagrees with Johnson on the FISA bill and on the Ukraine funding bill.

It’s already been too long as far as l am concerned. The battle remains the same. The deep state has a death grip on the real power. Trump has to navigate this reality. Mitch and Johnson are not going anywhere soon so what is he to do? I wish Trump was giving a press conference right now raising hell about this betrayal but does that help him remove Traitor Joe or hurt that end? I honestly do not know the answer to that question

Well, fair enough, but I stand by my position that the country as a whole as moved well to the left.

First, the national polls showing half the country supporting a far-left politician like Biden, who espouses every single left-wing, radical and extremist policy. That is incomprehensible.

Second, our most conservative institution in the country, the military, has gone hard core woke with DEI,

Third, our corporate elite used to solidly conservative. They have now totally capitulated to the far left with their emphasis on DEI and ESG.

Fourth, the mid-term elections were a disaster. Most people were predicting a gain of 40 seats in the House, some predicting even more. It turned out to be one of the best mid-term performances ever for the democrats, that is incredible. Even Clinton and Obama lost dozens and dozens of seats in their mid-terms.

These are just a few examples of how far to the left our country has moved, It is just not the same country that it was not that long ago. Sad.

I forgot to add the acceptance in our schools of the transgendered movement and CRT.

Points 1 thru 3 I already addressed.

It turned out to be one of the best mid-term performances ever for the democrats, that is incredible. Even Clinton and Obama lost dozens and dozens of seats in their mid-terms.

Of course there was no red wave in 2022. People don't see a difference between the Democrats and McCarthy/McConnell (and now Johnson). That makes my point.

I may support Trump, but I’m not a sheep. I don’t agree with everything Trump has done. Trump says he is for us yet in favor of us being spied on

That’s okay it’s inevitable that the idiots here who have really gotten themselves wound up over Ukraine will end up opposing Trump.

I support Trump 100% and I’m not a sheep.

Trump is not going to give the speech you want to hear because he wants Ukraine to survive and allow him to deal with it after the election.

He also wants Johnson to survive and Johnson supports securing the border.

You cannot allow yourself to get so wound up over individual issues that you lose sight of the fact that you have excellent leadership in Trump.

I have lived a pretty long life and never voted for a democrat once.

That you state my party is democrat, shows you have no judgment no awareness and no information.

“Johnson supports securing the border.”

There is no evidence to support that claim is there?

I’m sorry but you don’t know what the hell you are talking about.

The evidence to support it would be Johnson’s constant votes to secure the border and his constant statements in support of it.

You Don’t like that Johnson is going to let Ukraine get through.

Besides the fact this is going to help Trump and help America Obama it has nothing to do with his position on the Southern border which he has never wavered from.

“Obama” was an auto correct which I find interesting.

No, l don’t like the fact that he is giving tens of billions of dollars to the Ukraine/rat money laundering op but not one f’n dime to secure OUR border. If anything it’s evidence he does not support securing the border. This after he swore no Uke money before securing the border..another lie.

“Stupid crap like this is not helpful to our party.”

Then maybe YOUR party should start caring more about the people that actually vote for them.
