    I'm used to it.
No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

When you put your a$$, prestige and reputation on the line for one race ... then you get to make that judgment @Bigun  Until then, I prefer you'd just say "thank you".

Bishop just gave an acceptance speech where he spent half of it thanking the President and the other half bashing democrats.  He gets it.

F that @Right_in_Virginia!  I'm fine with the president pulling out all the stops to help the man but he should keep his damned mouth shut now!
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

Now THAT is more like it!  Not perfect but better.  Perfect after I fixed it!

  • Ah, the air is so much fresher here...
The Dems had their golden boy in D-9 and spend a boatload of cash, in a special election under a GOP cloud of scandal, and still came up short when they thought they could win.

Let's hope that sends them into a tailspin for awhile.
The Republic is lost.

How any thinking person can vote for any democrat anywhere these days is a complete mystery to me.

@Bigun

They are not thinking people. They are mostly yankee retirees and blacks voting Dim "fo all de free stuff".

Not a single rational thought to be found in any of them.

This kind of shit pisses me off!  Absolutely no need for that what-so-ever!

@Bigun

I agree.

Still,look at where we would be now without him.

He is FAR from a perfect man or a perfect candidate,but he IS the man and candidate we need for now. If it had been the "standard go along to get along" alleged Republican candidate spewed out by the RNC insiders,we would now be a One Party Nation under the RULE of leftist loons,and revolution would be in the air.

When you consider all that,Trump is a gift and we should be grateful we still have a thin chance to save America from being a member of "World Wide Government,Inc".

Bishop only lost by a couple of hundred votes in the east, which is historically a blue dog democrat region.  It is likely that Trump helped with the Fayetteville rally ... but he referred to a 17 point deficit in his tweet, and I'm not sure where he is getting that.  The polls have been tight ever since the process started in 2017.

Trump SHOULD have confined himself to congratulating the winners of the special elections in N.C. last night without injecting himself into it.  Everyone already knows the part he played and there was absolutely no need for HIM to tell them!
