Republican Party officials from across the country are not blaming President Trump for the party‘s defeats in Georgia’s runoffs but instead are rallying to make election security its top priority in the next cycle. At the Republican National Committee Winter Meeting in Amelia Island, Florida, party officials remained steadfast Wednesday in support of Mr. Trump and his remake of the party, despite the election setbacks that gave Democrats a Senate majority and complete control of the levers of power in Washington.(Snip) Republican Party officials embraced Mr. Trump‘s claims that ballot fraud and election irregularities marred the Nov. 3 vote. They are organizing

I don't think I will be sending money to the RNC anytime soon. I think they could have done more to back Trump! Maybe could use new Leadership. We will see what they do!

Wasted a lot of money, I really couldn't justify, this time round. In the future I will give to whoever Donald Trump says deserves it. Otherwise get lost!

The RNC has a four-year history of undermining Trump. They did nothing after the election was stolen and even worse, denied that it happened. I'm done with them. Californication, here we come.

Well, I escaped from California last year and allow me to explain to you why "fixing voter fraud" is NOT going to make any difference ever again. It's because they will now flood the entire country with millions more who will vote "D" after being granted amnesty and voting rights. When I left California, there was no longer any statewide election where i even had any non-Democrat I could vote for. They changed the rules so only the two top primary vote getters (always two Democrats) could run in the final election.
So the Republicans think they're going to win back the House and Senate in 2022 without Trump? They have no idea what the Democrat/Communist strategy really is. There is no way this will ever be fixed through the ballot box. Check out Venezuela for how their "elections" keep going.

Too little, too late. The RNC has let this kind of crap go on since Clinton was President.
I will not support the Republican Party as it stands today. There needs to be serious house cleaning before OI ever support them again.
A bunch of filthy traitors.

I will step up and take full responsibility for the hated opinion of the day. And yes, I voted for Trump twice and would do so again. Trump was brilliant legislatively but his personality made him his own worst enemy. Up until the very end he made it all about him. Frankly it is grating and cringe worthy. Destroying the Republican Party may make you feel righteous and pure but it is exactly what Democrats were going for. They have not only taken over the federal government, they have successfully separated the voters from their only competition (as lame as the GOP can be). Sorry but I’m not seeing how that helps us.

We have the majority of state legislators. They could correct all the crazy election laws and get rid of companies like Dominion. Maybe then Republicans would stand a chance of winning another election. I am going to change my affiliation to Independent.

If you still belong to the Republican Party after this fiasco then you must really enjoy sadists. The GOP will say anything to get your dollars and your vote but will not, read my lips, will not follow thru with action. Once again they take your money and run away with their tail between their legs. They can do this because so many folk stick with them, come hell or high water. BTW, that is all you get with the GOP, hell and high water. They will not change as long as you keep voting for them. So what can you do? Start by not sending these millionaires your hard earned money. Good grief, talk about a con job. We only donate to local folk that we know. Understand that the American government is corrupt, from top to bottom. With that understanding, rely on God, family and friends to bring you happiness and success. Do not rely on the government. They do not love you or care about you. You cannot beat DC so make your hometown your battlefield and make sure you are active in local civic events. Leave DC to the vultures that corrupt everything they touch. Have a blessed day folks.

And I will step up and stand beside you #13. President Trump’s accomplishments in his first three years were unprecedented. Then the virus and he got rolled by Fauci and the Democrats. We watched our cities burn, stores looted, people died and the police stood down. Antifa and BLM were given a pass to create chaos. Was election fraud truly any great surprise? And the Republicans in Congress and the Executive Branch stood down. We were warned that it was a Republic for as long as we could keep it. Well we lost it and it all happened on Trump’s watch. He did not engender loyalty. Even his appointments to the Supreme Court stood down when called upon. You are darned right I’m angry. I am truly appreciative for all that President Trump did. I am devastated by what he didn’t do.

Wise up, folks. You've been supporting a fraud, the UNIPARTY. The Georgia elections really don't matter. You'll get what the UNIPARTY gives...and that's the game. It's been somewhat disrupted over the past four years, but it's back to business as usual already. Now, go out and water that liberty tree with blood...or, take over your local and state Republican parties to effect changes, taking away the chimera of Republican "conservatism". Or, is that asking too much?

We will no longer be punked! It's over for you. Elites treat us like battered wives; kick our butts, them kiss us and make it all better. Battered wives often take drastic action to deliver themselves from their abusers. That's US today. We've put up a lot, we've held our noses and voted for you, but today, we're done. President Trump is NOT responsible for the party defeats in Georgia; YOU are! We're going to keep working with you users and losers? Bump that.

I can't see any reason to vote anymore. The country will be flooded with immigrants. The votes will be harvested. The election counts will go on until the Democrats are ahead. There will be no voter id, signature verifications. Republicans will not be allowed into the polling stations. The Democrats will count the votes. I am not wasting my time on a vote that does not matter.

I hear all the disillusionment and anger Repliers are feeling. I share it. But for the sake of the freedom and safety of our descendants, we must gather our thoughts and plan "what next." Andrea Widburg has an excellent "first" path forward (American Thinker --Where Do We Go From Here?); and I hope to read many more soon. To me, President Trump has been the best in our history... I pray for him and his family... now we must never give up and continue his fight against those who are bent on owning/destroying our beautiful nation. Bless Lucianne for giving us a platform to express our feelings!

Election security IS the right message. It is the only way to reunify the country. btw it is also the only way for Trump to win in 2024. He would win a fair election. Election security is the only way forward. Let's fight together with sincere Democrats to do that.

No money ever again, not one thin dime!!
On an anecdotal note, my 80 year old mom, a lifelong Republican and someone who voted every time the polls opened, is changing her voter registration from Republican to Independent thanks to the GOPs cowardice. The GOP will find that the number of voters who will vote for their candidates regardless of character and honor are magnitudes smaller than the mindless Democrat horde.... and we aren't playing a rigged game anymore.

It's not the state of politics that is so distressing as we near the end of the Trump presidency, it is the state of the country and how our country has been left wide open to the naked ambitions of the hard left. The aftermath of the fraudulent election could not have been handled more poorly, as incoherent legal lurching have only resulted in democrats/communists poised to control all of the levers of our federal government as the US is re-made. The myth of an armed, determined, patriotic American core has been shattered. Blame the GOP but by no means should you question whether too many eggs were placed in the basket of a single human and a handful of celebrity lawyers.

The GOP is focused on one thing: raising money. Their principles are gone. Ronna McDaniel should have forced republican lawmakers to support Trump by
threatening to withhold funds. She probably secretly hated Trump too.
I am so angry. Any republican that did not stand up for Trump (and Us!) yesterday will never get my vote or money. Not that voting is going to matter ever again. We are only beginning to comprehend the deep trouble America is in.

The Republicans want to be in the minority. They don’t want the pressure of having to listen to their constituents. It’s easier to say “the Democrats are in charge”, we tried to stop’t but couldn’t because you didn’t give us enough Republicans in the House or Senate.
They don’t get that we understand the game, and it isn’t going to play anymore.
Our government no longer has the consent of the governed. It’s going to take far worse than the Antifa-led attack on the capitol for them to get it apparently.

When the RNC tries to jam Romney down our throats in 2024 (or a Romney/Bush/McCain clone) and they can't fill a high school gym for rallies perhaps they will understand that without a candidate who connects with voters they will be SOL. If they are stupid enough to send me a begging letter with a prepaid postage envelope in it I thoroughly intend to stuff it with enough paper to force them to have to eat extra postage to get it back.

I call BS. The RNC is definitely turning on Trump.
And Fox.....I can't say what I think of those filthy liars on a polite site. I checked their online page this morning....and they intentionally LIE with their "4 Dead in DC riots" headline. I was surprised, the incompetent fools in the Capitol had shot one innocent woman, what the heck else went on?
If you read far enough down you find that 3 people had 'medical emergencies' and died, probably older folks who had heart attacks, I would guess. NOTHING AT ALL to do with their lying "riot" claim.
I saw NO riot. No punches thrown, I saw NO fires set, I saw people surging forward, pushing and shoving a bit as the police shoved them, but I did not see one fist raised by a demonstrator, nothing thrown.
I saw no riot. The Enemedia, including Fox LIES.

This entire presidency, but most particularly the stolen election response by Repubcapons reminds me of a movie called 'Serpico'. The only honest cop on the narcotics squad is set up by his 'partners' to be gunned down in a drug raid, in order to keep the goodies flowing. I believe this is what happened. Sure, the fix was in, but the fragging by his 'comrades' was planned and deliberate.

Congratulations RNC. You have managed to take the utter failure the complete ineffectiveness of the Republican Party in NY state, and spread that incompetence and corruption to the entire nation. You are forever done, gone, meaningless. Oh, you will continue to exist, even if Soros has to bankroll you. The chinarats will need someone to be the scapegoats for every elected office. Some of the most convincing liars will be allowed to win, just to make it sort of seem real and legitimate. Of course those RINOS will always vote with the chinarats when it counts.
It might take a few years, maybe even a decade before the USA is absolutely broken. I'll probably be long dead before it becomes obvious to the dumbest TV viewer what actually happened, but you s o bs destroyed it for my kids and I hope you burn in Hades for that. I absolutely do.

With friends like the RNC who needs enemies. Trump helped a lot of them in their campaigns and this how they rewarded him. They let the seal go through. Well, I'm seriously considering either changing my party affiliation to independent or conservative. I think my days are numbered as a member of the GOP. I never thought the swamp was as deep as it is but it seems they're all in it up to their necks. And that's democrats and republicans. Our country is in big trouble.

I stand with Trump and he's actually the only one I trust that's elected.
The RNC called me last week for money and I yelled "no" so I doubt they will be calling back. No more contributions from me.
Also, I'm live in Indiana and the politicians are supporting Pence. I will remember which ones leaped to condemn Trump and his supporters. Senator Todd Young of Indiana, and the rest of you jerks, better choose your words very carefully if you ever want to get my vote again. .

I eagerly voted in 1972, the first presidential election I was eligible for. I have voted carefully in every single election since then, and since the 1980 elections, in every single primary election in Kansas.
I am trying to decide if I will even bother any more.

.... the Pubbies know that the ONLY way they can get any contributions going forward is to have President Trump's photo on the mailed appeals.
The last time they called ME asking for money, I DEMANDED A REFUND of my past contributions.
They have not called me since.
