  8. ”Trump and his followers believe he is the best Republican candidate for president”

    Retllaw, There are many people who aren’t necessarily Trump followers. However, what attracts them to his candidacy is agreeing with his first term policies, and admiring the current ferocity in which he is confronting his 2024 adversaries and the lawfare tactics being foisted upon him. This premise has been demonstrated in the first two states where there were many first-timers who came out to caucus and vote for Trump.

  27. DW – Great post on the Texas poll, and it is looking good for Trump. If you go back to 2020 and 2016, all the polls had the Dem within one to two points up to the election. The turn Texas blue crowd is strong.

    I will help you find polls, btw and let you know when I do. I thnk we should really be looking for anything out of NY-3, the upcoming special to replace the R who got expelled. That will be a big indicator.

    Going back to Texas, the last Senate poll only had Cruz up 42-40, which is absurd. If Beto didn’t beat him, no Dem from Dallas this cycle is going to win.

  36. Some of these polls DW is posting are showing a better spread between the leading Republican and dem. One of the reasons for this may be increased grass roots involvement in the entire election process, from precinct captains, poll watchers, ballot chasing, targeting low propensity voters, and registering new voters. The grass roots primarily represent America First policies and candidates. They don’t have big donor money to put into their grass roots projects,, like RDS and Haley had to throw around. However, they do have lots of volunteerism, enthusiasm, and loyalty to the purpose of taking government out of the hands of the elites, and returning it to the people. 

    There are also energies being spent on reforming the cash-strapped RNC. Looking over their expenditures, and seeing the gross mismanagement of their funds, is inspiring them to replace Romney’s niece, putting in someone less likely to squander money on flowers and limos, and instead on GOTV activities. In fact TPUSA is having a training session in Las Vegas now, sharing up-to-date voter data and strategies with grass roots leaders from all over the country. It has been a phenomenal success!

    U.S. — In a shocking discovery sure to shake America to its core, conservatives announced they have uncovered a secret plot by the Democratic Party to turn Taylor Swift into an international pop star and the Kansas City Chiefs into a football dynasty so Swift could then date a Kansas City player and leverage the collective media coverage to get Joseph R. Biden, Jr. elected as President.

    The conspiracy, confirmed by the sharpest conservative minds on social media, alleges that Swift’s rise to the top of the music and pop culture spheres and the ascendance of the Chiefs to join other storied championship franchises in NFL history did not happen by mere coincidence, but instead were orchestrated down to the smallest detail by high-ranking powerbrokers to make sure the media storm generated by Swift’s romance with Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce could ensure Biden’s re-election.

    “This is obviously an op,” said one popular right-wing social media personality. “You mean to tell me that a singer-songwriter who has been popular for nearly two decades just happens to start dating an All-Pro tight end on a team that just happened to recently start winning Super Bowls for the first time in 50 years? Really? You people are such sheep. Wake up! Democrats have been planning this for years!”
