Life seldom offers second chances. When opportunity knocks you can either answer the door or sit idly by as opportunity moves on to the next house, never to return. Opportunity is knocking on the doors of elected Republicans today. Will the door be answered? Do Republicans hear the knocking, or are their fingers in their ears, trying hard to not hear anything, reminiscent of Sergeant Schultz of Hogan’s Heroes?
President Trump is the door knocker. He started knocking in June 2015 when he rode down the Trump Tower escalator promising to Make America Great Again. Some in the GOP answered his call and stood firm to support Trump’s agenda

Trump stands between the USA and Chi-Com Hell. But Pence has to stand up and do his job.

This is their chance to leave their mark on history. Given this chance, who would not grab it and growl?

Republican Senators have always been a chancey thing. Those seats are powerful and some or a lot of special interests paid big bucks for those seats and they don’t want there boy wandering too far off the reservation. Lindsey Graham - comes to mind....talks a good game but when it comes down gettin it done, he’s tumbleweeds.

They will do nothing. They are addicted to losing and will do what they must to get their next loss fix. Doesn't matter to them. The bribes are the same.

I respectfully submit this outstanding piece for Must Read status. This Colorado ophthalmologist simply states where things stand for the Republican party. This is it. A reply posted to the article said it perfectly as far as I am concerned. If election integrity isn’t the hill the GOP is willing to die on, then the GOP deserves to die.

The Republican party is dead, and that is fine with me. This bunch of pantywaists we have now is no better than dim-0s. The only problem is, what are we gonna do now? Will the country survive until we can put together a Trump party?

Only three things are sure: death, taxes and that Repubs will disappoint us every time it really matters. If you keep your expectations low, and I mean really low, it won't hurt quite as bad. Say goodnight, America. It was nice while it lasted.

It is an empty threat to swear we will never vote for them again, because if they refuse to act, there will never, ever be a real election in this country again!
If the GOP prefers death to independence from their voters, it will be like sitting in the back seat with a suicidal driver going over the cliff. They will take us all out with them. No one will cry at the funeral, but some will be celebrating.

Joondeph makes great sense, and he scares me. Where I grew up, it was ''vote Democrat locally and Republican nationally.'' Never wondered until right now why that was so bad. Sort of like there are politicians you know and politicians you hate. That is no way to run a country.

The GOPe tuned us out long since. They are now at the chicom trough awaiting their financial rewards for helping to stage the largest election fraud in history. The pubbie party as we once knew it has way too much dead wood that needs to be culled. Don't expect them to "Do" on January 6th.

“ Republicans may object to the Paris climate accords or the Iranian nuke deal but will be powerless to prevent any of it. How will they stop Medicare-For-All or the Green New Deal? Or a fracking ban and higher income taxes? They won’t.”
Not mentioned but of equal importance is the rise of Islamic terrorism which will certainly happen as the jihadis are now looking at a senile, weak and frail old man who will let them attack without lifting a finger. Does no Republican remember the plethora of attacks which occurred during the Smidgen reign of error which abruptly stopped when PDT entered the White House? Not only will Xiden not send drones to kill the most heinous terrorist leaders, he will send them palettes of cash because his old boss, who will soon be his new boss, will order him to do it.

If this isn't the best reason in the world to have term limits, I don't know what is. Nobody should be getting into Politics as a career choice. We are now seeing what happens when someone is protecting their career and their money. The Republican establishment is showing that all they care about is their phony baloney job, just like the Democrats have always done for the last 50 years.

Joondeph is absolutely right on. And to add to No.17, the Left will be saying that we can’t stop terrorism as we’ll just have to live with it. NORK missiles will also be flying into the Pacific and Little Rocket Man will be demanding ransom. The Left and the RINOS will have their dream of getting back to “normal” fulfilled. I can almost guarantee that this wil lead to a Second Revolution. How that will turn out will depend on a military who will be like a Colonel Pinochet and destroy the Left. If it isn’t, get ready to learn to speak Chinese, because that will be our future.

I see two outs
1. A third Trump led party in 2022. Take ten Senate seats and 30 or so in the House. Watch the Uniparty soil themselves. 2024 we come for President Mattressback and more congressional standing.
2. The Republic of Texas extending north to North Dakota and east to Florida with quite a few sideways states added in. I figure between 17 and 20 all told. More oil than the Saudis ever dreamed of. and every shipping port in the Gulf of Mexico. California and New York can print their own money . PS We will enforce our borders. It ain't over yet but I think I hear a Fat Lady clearing her throat.

If PDT pulls off his, no one will be more pleased than I. I don't expect that to happen.
FTA: "When opportunity knocks you can either answer the door or sit idly by as opportunity moves on to the next house, never to return. Opportunity is knocking on the doors of elected Republicans today. Will the door be answered?"
The knock is not for the UNIPARTY politicos, but for "Republicans". Those rank and file folks can raise hell in many ways to tear the party apart and rebuild...start by circulating recall petitions for every Republican in those six "controversial" states - where no legislature has acted meaningfully to stop the certification of electors. (Please, don't suggest hearings are meaningful.)
No more money for the various "committees" to elect/re-elect Republicans to Federal office. Speak out at local Republican gatherings against this perfidy committed by UNIPARTY Republicans. Demand the end to use of Dominion machines, or any machine, in your state. Put these people on the spot where they least expect it. If that be "treason" then make the most of it. Grab control of the local and even the state parties and start disinfecting.

This is serious and at the same time a shinning moment.
America is Mystery Babylon, the only nation not prophesied in the Bible. It is called a mystery and Mr. 666 will rule, whoever that should be.
If this plainly obvious fraudulent election is allowed, time will speed up concerning the arrival of the Kingdom of God and the Lord of Lords, Yeshua Mashiach(Jesus Christ).
This will be a turning point just like 1948 and the return of the nation of Israel.
Except this is the great whore rising from the sea, Mystery Babylon....Libertas.
America will be gone, in its place a conquering foe Lucifer and his minions, posing as a democracy. We will no longer be a republic.
We will now have a president who has not the authority that only comes from God and the citizens.

The article mentions the possibility of democrats adding six more far-left justices to the Supreme Court diluting Trump’s three appointees.
I am not sure that is really a concern anymore in that the three did not vote to accept the voter fraud issue. President Trump went to the wall to set these three up with a great paying job for life, and the cowards turned their back to him. The left doesn't need any more help from the justices--they appear to hold a 7-2 consensus now.

#22, What are you smoking? If Biden gets in, voter fraud will reign forever and the GOP will never win again. That is the main point of this wonderful piece.

I sent the following email message to both of my republican Senators Scott and Rubio who represent my State of Florida:
I am a registered Republican who has voted for you in every election since 2014. I urge you to stand up for our Republic and to stand up against the Communist Death Democrats who are staging a coup against the Republic via the blatant theft of the Presidential Election and also numerous Senate and House of Representative elections. To surrender to this mortal threat against our Republic and our Constitution will be a violation of the oath of office you took on becoming a Senator from our Great State of Florida. If you do not vigorously and very publicly start to support President Trump in his fight for our freedoms and especially do not contest the Electoral College fake electors from the corrupt swing states, I will do all in my power as an ordinary citizen who is a Republican to defeat you in the next primary.
This is very simply about Good versus Evil, Honor, Duty, and keeping your Oath to Protect and Defend the Constituion.
I have faith that you will in the end be part of the true Patriots in the Republican Party and defeat the Communist Death Democrats coup against us.
Thank you for fulfilling your oath of office.
I urge each and every one of you to send emails, leave phone messages to these weak-kneed cowardly republican Senators and Representatives to make them understand that their sorry butts are on the line and they will lose their seats in Congress if they fail to defend our Republic and Constitution. They must be made to understand that they will suffer direct and personal negative consequences if they do nothing (which is another form of treason ) or openly betray us again. They will listen when they realize that their actions and non-actions are not going to go unpunished this time.

Joe Biden is a filth, disgusting communist.
Kamala slept her way to the top with an old, blind man in San Francisco.
He said that he would not vote for her for dog catcher.
His wife should have divorced him.
Trump won the 2020 election.
He should never concede.
Trump should fight for America until the cows come home.
