How would this race have turned out if the over 2000 fake 2024 mail in voter registrations had not been caught by that county's election workers? And how many other counties in US have over 2000 new voters THAT WERE NOT CAUGHT BY ELECTION WORKERS? Spot Audit 2024 New Mail In Ballot Applicants

This is how we get rid of Maga. Keep winning state seats held by Maga republicans. With every Trump scandal, this will get easier going forward.

paulwolstencroft.bsky.social•49 days ago

That's great news in many ways,
But the best I think is that the more Trump realizes muskkk is a liability to him, the sooner he'll throw him under the bus.

cantkeepquiet3.bsky.social•49 days ago

I don't think he can do that. Putin wants Musk there and they both own Trump.

If Elon encouraged people to vote for his opponent, then that's why everyone voted for this guy. Nobody trusts musk anymore.

Perhaps Rick Wilson can come out with a new book (though it may a bit premature) entitled, "Everything Elon Musk Touches Die"? Wishful thinking here but it could be from this point forward that any time Elon endorses a Republican to office it will be the kiss of death for their candidacy?

I hate to sound conspiratorial but ALL of the swing states? Just thought it was a little hard to believe

thepeoplespen.bsky.social•48 days ago

There’s a difference between conspiratorial and looking at the hard facts and data. The only reason this slid is because too many people are too afraid of what would’ve happened in “civil society” if it had been pressed. To be fair, I think it’s a valid fear.

The +15 Trump district really catches my eye. I've always presumed special/mid-terms lean more red because of age demos.

I'm really curious about this being related to higher turnout among the left, older folks wanting to go back to "norms" or if the podcast bros really are that critical to Trump.
