POST-ELECTION TAKE: a 🧵

I feel angry. Perhaps you can relate, perhaps not. But my anger stems from the fact that, amazingly, Republicans still don’t seem to get it.

One can understand why conservatives were caught off-guard in 2020. We simply had no framework within the…

…American political experience for corruption on that scale. Historically, Americans trust their institutions and their political process.

But after the factually reported widespread shenanigans of the 2020 election, no one should have been naive about what Democrats …

…were planning to do in all future elections. I mean, Time bragged about the 2020 steal for heaven’s sake.

But many Republicans, fearful of being labeled “election deniers,” got played yet again. It’s quite incredible …

… really. They became “election-denier” deniers. They chastised fellow conservatives like my friend @DineshDSouza for even suggesting that such a thing was possible. To these people I ask a simple question: do you really think that a party that is prepared to suspend the …

…writ of habeas corpus as in the case of the Jan 6th detainees, sexualize children & perform irreversible sex-change operations on them, burn cities, threaten Supreme Court justices, deliberately tank the economy, condemn your g’ma to die alone, etc. is actually above …

…election-rigging? If so, read no further. One cannot reason with an idiot.

Republicans post-2020, embarrassed by Trump, determined to look politically sophisticated, not wanting to side with the Red State masses, or just coveting that membership at club with all their …

…liberal buddies, did little to nothing to prevent another 2020. Instead, they foolishly assumed that Biden’s policies, which so clearly have unsettled and destabilized Americans, would sink Dems in the midterms. Didn’t the polls say so?

So, they campaigned harder, spent …

…more money, had more rallies, and confused all of it with actual success.

If a football game is rigged, practicing more won’t do you any good.

In 2020, I had a sense that Dems were up to something when Biden barely campaigned. Remember that? Yes, while Trump was …

…holding HUGE rallies across the county, Biden went in the basement. Moreover, Dems treated Americans with utter impunity. Not the sort of stuff you’d expected to see in the lead-up to an election. But it’s precisely what you’d expect to see if they knew the fix was in….

…Fast forward to 2022, it was the same thing all over again. Dems continue to exhibit utter disdain for common Americans. Polling data suggested a “red wave” to hit the whole country. But that was never going to happen, and Dems knew it.

The part that angers me is that …

…Republicans should have known it, too. I knew it. Many of you did, too. But as Republicans held rallies and generally played the role of Pollyanna, Dems ignored doing anything to mollify a discontented electorate and instead continued to target the levers of power by…

…altering election laws; massive ballot-harvesting; recruiting poll workers; relocating illegals to red cities/states; utilizing corporate America, Hollywood, media & Big Tech to push their agenda, and so on.

I’ve spent a lot of time in the third world, and these are …

…all third world tactics. Republican leadership is broken insofar as Democrats are unscrupulous street fighters who are prepared to do anything, absolutely anything, to acquire power and maintain it.

Republicans are playing by the Marquess of Queensberry Rules.
