I don't really like to participate in the Pro-Wrestling theatre side of politics like this thread, but when you have Ro Khanna and Brian Krassenstein in a tizzy that Massie didn't win, that's a pretty good sign that he needed to go.
i'm sorry i dont laugh at the right times.

End of day did Massie serve his constituents in his district? Seems like he didnt and they booted him. Maybe next time dont get sucked up in a rabbit hole in DC and forget you actually represent a block of voters.

He literally ran against Trump in a district that just 2 years ago voted 90% for him (among GOP voters). Anyone surprised by the result probably should consider their biases/rationalizations heading into Tuesday evening imho.

I understand/respect plenty of criticisms of Trump, but he is an alpha predator who once he decides to identify and go after an enemy is not to be dismissed, imho.

Massie knocks Trump ballroom after primary loss: 'Looks like the Roman Empire

"And it looks like … architecture from the Roman Empire," he continued. "I see a few analogies there, and people are just trying to make ends meet."


Hey einstein, you have never seen the Supreme Court building? OR almost every other government building on the mall?

So who bought his opponent? You seem concerned about donations? We've got massive money behind his opponent, why? Starts with a P ends in edophile.

Pedophiles donated to his campaign? Which ones? Joe and Hunter Biden? Cause this cause they're your family doesn't make it not pedophilia.

Curious about these pedophile PACs. Can you provide links?

Also, did you know who Massie was before clicking on this thread?

See this tweet is obfuscating. AIPAC, Miriam Adelson, and the Republican Jewish Coalition pumped money to defeat Massey because Massey would not support American money to Israel and he wouldn't support the US wars on behalf of Israel. Also the Epstein thing.

Do these circumstances apply to those other elections this tweet is referring to?


Massey?

I was slightly joking but the new post is the same as old with a necessary edit

I'm looking back for other "autocorrect" edits and I'm not seeing it happen. I do see the same exact "AIPAC, Miriam Adelson, and the Republican Jewish Coalition" on repeat.

That's beyond bizarre and obsessive. That's to a compulsive level. Just a bizarre coincidence though!

Bizarre and obsessive? They are the organizations/person which pumped tens of millions into Massie's opponent campaign. I am bizarre and obsessive about stating factual information I guess

Didn't Massie out raise his opponent in donations? Where did all his donations come from, and, by your logic, won't he be controlled by them? Maybe he is already and the people in his district saw through it. Hmm!

Those are good points.

Massie knew how popular and powerful Trump is among the Republican base. However, Massie thought a majority of Republicans in his district would continue to support himself because he opposed Trump's trillion dollar deficits, and Trump's ruinous tariffs, and Trump's starting of another Middle East foreign war, and Trump's disgusting protecting of pedophiles.

Before Tuesday, Massie's assumptions seemed rational. Now those assumptions have been proven false.

The harsh lesson Trump has handed down the past 4 weeks to Republican incumbents, Republican candidates, and Republican Party members is stark, clear, and unmistakeable.

Why did it take so long to learn the lesson? He's been the leader of the majority movement in America for a decade.

And it is about releasing the Epstein files (DONE), ending 47 year wars (IN PROGRESS), cutting spending (DOGE, Vance v FWA), and an effective international race policy that will benefit these United States for generations.

I remain baffled why people need to be taught the lessons of how wonderful Trump is. But I am here to do my part o shutdown lies like "protecting pedophiles" which is just more folks projecting on others what they themselves are guilty of.

And you have them saved exactly like that to copy/paste and or use as if it's a mandatory directive?


Im not doubting some of what you're stating about yourself.

I mean what even is your rebuttal? You are criticizing me for stating factual information?


If I was surprisingly only posting on very specific threads while repeating copy/pasted info I'd expect some criticism. It's a little off to me but we are all different in our own ways! Hope you get some sleep too.

I am sorry you have a problem with rebutting factual information. I do realize if you are a trump/GOP/israel shill, it can be tough. Maybe you can do it after some good sleep


Enjoy the new representative! He will still be replacing Massie when I get the blessing to nap.

The insults of trump/gop arent bad and neither is Israel but it is way off. Just because I come to the defense of Israelis and Jewish people doesn't mean I am a shill for them.

It's not tough winning against this hatred for winning either!

Do you also note how I had been nice despite our disagreement but you weren't? Strange huh?

Yes you are a nice guy. AIPAC, Miriam Adelson, and the Republican Jewish Coalition pumped money to defeat Massie because Massie would not support American money to Israel and he wouldn't support the US wars on behalf of Israel. Also the Epstein thing.


Bruhhh, you've said that before. I think you're broken. Not even sure youre human. Give it a rest!



There's definitely something interesting going on with MAGA right now. It seems for the first time Rino Republicans are actually suffering consequences for not governing how they campaign.

People were so excited that we finally had Trump back with a big win and control of both houses of Congress. And then we still couldn't get anything done, and it became real obvious who the people holding it up were. Rs just aren't going to tolerate folks who run as conservatives and then join the Ds to stop anything conservative from passing anymore. We see the Ds voting as a single unified block on everything they do, and we are going to start demanding that of Rs too or they will be replaced with somebody who will.

Why did it take so long to learn the lesson?
Trump Republicanism is radically different from Reagan - Bush - Cheney - McCain Republicanism.

The rules of Trump Republicanism are different. The values and principles of Trump Republicanism are very different.

And although that has been obvious for the past several years, it still takes time for people to understand it and accept it.

A lot more Rs understand it now than did 4 weeks ago.

Good. Glad people are finally coming around that 40 years of weak kneed decorum first "gentlemanly" Rs who oft caucused with the enemy under the name of "bipartisanship" have had their asses completely handed to them by the evil DNC machine to the point we are staring down a national divorce and experiencing routine assassination attempts just to try and get back to "normal".

Not everyone in this nation is willing to accede to bending a knee to Trumpism and be a subservient coward, turn a blind eye to lying and unlawful abuse of power and corruption, and have no conscience and no principles. Yet that is the price one must pay to be a loyal Trump Republican.

I choose to support Trump because I like what he has done and is doing for this Country and the world.

A big reason I wanted Massie to win was to show that you don't have to fall in line with Trump on every issue. But this situation shows that if you don't, the political machine will come after you in many different ways and have you removed.
