It’s been appalling to see so many Republicans desert President Trump in the election fraud challenges, telling him to give in and concede. Fox News started out the trend election night by calling Arizona for Biden. RINO judges piled on, dismissing election challenges with flimsy excuses that no one bought. Gradually, elected officials have turned on him.
The MSM loves talking about the politician defectors but never explains why they’re deserting. They’re deserting because politics has never been about principles for those Republicans. They ran for office looking for fame and fortune; most of them are narcissists. They survive in office based on campaign contributions and other perks.

We know who they are and their political careers are over. I could not stop laughing when donut king Christie said he was going to primary Trump for the 2024 election. Ducey from AZ also has big aspirations for president. He now could not be president of the clown union. I have written our useless state legislators here in PA that their careers are over and suggest them looking for employment. Act 77 was the biggest career blunder for each of them. In 2022 we will start cleaning house and elect people that work for us and not for themselves.

Its going to get a lot worse than 'shame on you'. We are from the old Disney generation, we don't approve of political coups, voter fraud, and graft. Time to restore our country with a Convention of states action and frog march the conspirators out.

Thank you, Rachel Alexander, for writing this honest n informative piece.
We can deal w what we know. What we cant deal w is 98 point typeface shouting "ITS BEGINNING" but nothing is beginning and our fate is perilous.
IDK what happened at the WH meeting of lawyers, but Rudi distanced Sidney right afterwards. We are made to guess what that means

The GOP is writing their own obituary right now. I will never vote for my R senators or my R representative again, if they do not stand with Trump. (but it won't really matter how any of us vote in the future, will it?)
It is clear where Senator Bill Cassidy stands, but I hold out some hope for Senator John Kennedy doing the right thing. I certainly hope he has not been in office long enough to be under the control of the Deep State. I wrote him an email yesterday and told him he is in the Senate now "for such a time as this".
The republic is in peril, and if the republicans will not protect it, the people will have to choose between revolution and secession.

FTA: “... it is imperative to continue fighting as much as we can for the soul of the nation to combat this election fraud, or future elections will go down the same way.”
If we don’t win it now, all is lost without armed rebellion. Who wants that? No sane person does but the ignorant Rinos who would cut their noses off to spite their faces. As always, this goes back to one fundamental question. Why do they hate Trump so much? He really did make America great again. Biden will destroy the country. It is the goal of the democrats. Just listen to the policies they espouse. It is madness. They hate Trump because they FEAR him. They know he will come after them and shut down their gravy train. I cannot believe men and women can be so venal and self-serving. We did our jobs on November 3rd. Republicans must stand up for this country on January 6th.

If you want to spend time with the beautiful people, and be loved by Peggy Noonan, and be featured in the tabloids, you will be a RINO. Real Republicans don't get invited to the good parties. They don't have the good friends. Get with it.
If you want to be loved by the in crowd, better get in.
That means TDS.
Just think what the neighbors will say. Antifa is ready to burn down your house.
Better go RINO and be safe.

I agree with #9. I guess those Republican Governors and Sec. Of States who refused to back Trump, think that all will be forgotten next time they run for Office. What they haven't yet figured out is WE, the people who they stomped on, will never, ever forget! That not only goes for them running in Our State. We will JOIN Republicans in Other States and FUND their Opponent. We will March with those in Other States. We will Rally in Other States and we won't give up until those who turned on Trump can't be elected Dog Catcher! There will be a price to pay for thumbing your nose at a Million Voters who backed Trump!

"Why do they hate Trump so much?" is the question of our times. Hate him so much that they would launch a coup before he even took office. Hate him so much that they would impeach him for no good reason. Hate him so much that they would keep hammering a total hoax-- Russia! Russia!-- throughout his presidency. Hate him so much that they would steal an election.
The answer is that he threw many monkey wrenches into the well-oiled machine of corruption in Washington. Do you wonder why so many politicians leave office filthy rich? And slip from political office to lobbyist on greased skids? The military industrial complex enriches thousands. But Trump did not start one new war-- which cost them billions in lost revenue-- and, even worse, began withdrawing troops from foreign soil. The Chamber of Commerce slathers money on the palms of greedy House and Senate members as well as presidents to guarantee favourable legislation. Trump, however, is a billionaire with whom they have no purchase. China lavishes money on politicians to maintain lopsided trade deals and non-interference in their moves toward global domination, like controlling the South China Sea. Trump upset that apple cart by renegotiating in favour of the USA and standing up to China militarily. Washington politicians play their phony roles effortlessly, so habituated are they to saying one thing and doing another, or doing nothing. Lindsey Graham is the poster boy. Trump, however, speaks directly to the people in plain talk, and then actually does what he says he will do. That terrifies politicians.
It's a great question and I have just scratched the surface of the answer. There's the media, for instance. And big tech. And the whole entertainment industry. Academia. To state it as a generalisation: Trump is the opposite of the established corruption. Trump and the great Washington swamp, and all its interconnected smaller swamps, cannot co-exist. It is one or the other. They all know that and are fighting for their slimy lives.

That so many elected Republicans have openly betrayed the will of the people and destroyed our trust in them means one thing: they believe they do not need our trust to continue to reap the spoils of their offices. In other words, we're expendable. The gravy train must go on. It was never about "we the people." It was always about "Us, the powerful." They have been exposed. The people now must resist their government as if it were a foreign enemy, because it is!

RINOs would rather march behind the banner of the globalista left rather than get behind Trump. They want to be the party of Bush and Romney. They would rather export high paying jobs overseas and import cheap labor. They only believe in wealth for themselves which is exactly like the left. This appears to be the path the Republican party wants to follow. They are marching into obscurity since they offer no real alternative to the Democrats. They are marching towards the trash bin of history, and they deserve it. Trump offered the Republican party a viable alternative, and they refuse to back it. Sadly, this will give the Communist left the victory they have worked so long for in this country. It is doubtful the country will ever recover once the left has the country under their version of permanent lockdown.

Was a Mitt Romney sibling also involved in the Ukraine? Could this be why he is flailing? My point being is he knew it was wrong and these money laundering schemes are not afforded us, just the Biden, Pelosi and Feinstein types. For influence over our checkbook.

The one thing I can say is that with about 74 million votes for Trump on Nov. 3rd, these Rinos will NOT be forgotten, and even Swampers like McConnell (whose wife's family, by the way, owns a shipping company that deals with and has its ships built in China, and giving China grief in any form would reap the whirlwind() can't stop the Rinos being primaried by people who are simply disgusted.

As to the poster mentioning Chris Christie, who now has an ad out saying HE should have worn a mask, the implication is that his viral infection was Trump's fault, I lost that man entirely when, as a key speaker at the Republican convention years ago, he barely mentioned the candidate but went on and on and on about himself and how proud his Mom would be. Everything I have seen re: Chris since, even when he has done decent things, is about him, him, hum and never about the voter!

I love cognitive dissonance...it's a wonder to watch. After years as "real Republicans" a few are wising up, others just angry. And here's the bottom line: The pros don't care. They know most will fuss and fume and send more them money to stop the spread of "communism". Their followers can turn off Fox News, but they cannot turn of the Republican elected class for a simple reason...no place else to go.
If "real Republicans" were serious they'd be at least printing and circulating recall petitions for Republicans in those six "controversial" state legislatures. Anyone? No, that takes effort.
"Republicans" have been had; PDT endorsed Romney and worked to elect many of those now unwilling to do anything. They're good UNIPARTY soldiers and have their orders.
And then there's Chief Justice Earl Warren Roberts...

This election is over. No matter how many rallies there are, how many lawsuits, how many protests, this thing is finished.
President Trump is spinning his wheels. We all support him, there are more than 100 million people who back him. That said it's finished. From police, to the judiciary, RINOs, the indoctrination system, the communists.... we may not be out numbered however we are completely out maneuvered. There is not going to be a miracle.
The president should never concede, he and we must face the reality of the end of his presidency. The people have election fatigue. The gaping maw of communist rule is rushing toward them and no amount of tweeting or we found more fraud headlines is going to change this.
I'm not a defeatist, I'm a realist. People have often wondered how Hitler and the Nazis were able to cow, round up and kill 6 million people with barely a peep of resistance from them.
This is how. There is no where to flee to. America was the last refuge. It's the new dark ages. It's going to be long and hard. My advice to younger people is do not have babies. Do all you can to prevent pregnancies. You are merely breeding a new generation of slaves.
I'm sure I'll be scolded for my post. My family and I are staunch supporters of President Trump and his policies. We live in MAbehind enemy lines, imagine how hard that is. I have ancestors who fought in the American Revolution and helped found this nation. Imagine my sadness.
A wild rally in DC is not going to change this folks. You have to get realistic. It's just another distraction from the inevitable destruction of the republic that we were apparently unable to keep.

Has Rachel been under a rock for the past four plus years? RINO's NEVER turned on Trump. They were ALWAYS against him and ALWAYS trying to get rid of him. There NEVER was a time during Trump's presidency that were ever for him. Rachel needs some WD40 to spray on the broken Venetian blinds over her belly button.

If it were the RINOs who had their 'positions/offices' stolen out from under them, perhaps they'd be feeling a tad more resentful. It's as if you are in your job, working night and day doing your best to keep promises made and improve the lot of those depending upon you, and then a huge bunch of thugs comes in, wrecks your workplace and everything pertaining to it - and throws you out. And 99% of those who are tasked to bring us news of such events (miraculously) had their eyes and ears shut. The Democrats and their minions are vicious, hateful thugs who'll do anything to get their boot heels on our (any of us who disagree with them) throats. I thank God for those who are fighting this injustice and criminality. If it had been a 'fair election', we could have handled it. American justice is a beautiful thing. Those who trample upon it - and us - are traitors in every sense of the word.

And to all the posters here saying "we won't forget because in the next election...."
It is laughable reading these posts. If 100 million voters can be cheated in a presidential election with the most popular President in living memory, how can anyone really believe any other election, from local dog catcher to high office will ever be legitimate again?
Get real, there will never be another legitimate election in this country for anything. I'll say it again, young people, don't have babies. They will be slaves.

Okay #31 - When are you mustering on the nearest village green to water the tree of liberty with your blood? Or, are you just going to fume, too, because nothing else will get it done? You can always write/call your Member of Congress, wave around your copy of the Constitution, turn off Fox News, or whatever.

Rhinos are part of the unitary. They're smugly joyous at the situation.
People better start understanding that the political class is at war with the working class, and has been for decades. Propaganda and misinformation (media), infiltrators (donor class), indoctrination (department of education), secret police (FBI and CIA), and a steady message from all quarters that we leave our governance to "the Experts".
We are at war.

One more thing: if you plan to throw out the rhinos, make sure you have a candidate to replace them in the primary. Voting against them in the main election allows them to use "magician's force" to have you select the candidate they want. Give them someone outside of their Swamp cliche, like Trump, and you might cause them concern.
But to do that, we need more ordinary people willing to give up their lives for a decade to run and serve.

You have to have a decent conscience, heart and soul to feel shame. They sold their's out collectively decades ago. I want scorched earth by Trump. Ironic thing is, the media and democrats will howl to the skies that Trump is being many things, but the one thing they will ignore is that he is fighting for US and the nation against their corruption and evil.

Most Republicans in Congress are RINOs. They prefer to be in the minority when they can talk conservative for the rubes in flyover country, but aren't held accountable for results because they're in the minority. Meanwhile, they get invited to all the cool cocktail parties and can socialize with their Democrat "friends."

If these people can't get with the conservative agenda, I suggest they create their own party and stop lying to people about their real beliefs. Campaigning as conservative Republicans and then voting like a liberal socialist is even worse than a demoslut. We know what to expect from demosluts, but Rino's are just liars.
