Another thing I havent seen brought up a lot (even by Styx in this video) is that the Republicans actually performed rather well at the local level. They flipped a lot of State Supreme Courts, they won a ton of school boards, and while they struggled with governors, they picked up governors in some pretty important places (for instance, I think Lombardo in NV will help it be in play come 2024).

This should help make it so that the Feds have to keep running around putting out bushfires instead of actually expanding their tyranny, and that is assuming they can even do that since a lot of states are starting to tell the Feds to piss off, like DeSantis telling the Feds to stay far away from his elections he was conducting.

I stand by my theory that we are essentially living an echo of the late 1970's, and we just witnessed 1978, where the uniquely unpopular Carter managed to hold the House and Senate despite overwhelming pessimism about the direction of the nation (between race riots, Socialism on the march in the US, intense government interference, and ChinaThe Soviet Union ascendant). And what happened? A movie actor came walking in, became the most popular president in US history, and ushered in an American Golden Age, while reducing America's greatest enemy to a pile of ash on the heap of history.

Now that said, I still think DeSantis is the smarter choice for 2024. But IF, and only IF, he is able to Out-Trump Trump. He has done plenty of good work as Governor, and shown he can even do better than Trump in some areas (like Executive appointments that actually listen to him and are dismantling the Woke infrastructure). But if he starts letting the GOP get their hooks in him and start whispering in his ear like Wormtongue, then he will be less Ronald Reagan and more Boris Johnson.

Also, insert obligatory "Fuck blackpillers"

When local republicans perform well everywhere and state and national republicans mysteriously struggle, what you’re seeing is fraud.

Correct.

The idea that the left are getting more votes under Biden than they got under Obama is ought to be preposterous to anyone that hears it.

The election is fucking rigged and the US is currently a phony dictatorship.

The only thing stopping the Dems at the federal level from a full scale takeover of the local level is the prospect of serious political competition, which is now dead in the water. We might not see this right away, especially if by some miracle they lose the House because of the complacency of their NY fraud machine. Either way they won't make that same mistake again.

and what happened? A movie actor came walking in, became the most popular president in US history, and ushered in an American Golden Age, while reducing America's greatest enemy to a pile of ash on the heap of history.

Yes, because Reagan was able to run in a fair election. DeSantis or whoever the nominee is won't be able to do that.

Also, insert obligatory "Fuck blackpillers"

Yeah, shoot the messenger instead of the assholes who caused the message to be written. We're only blackpillers because we know that nothing will be done about the fraud problem. Florida and Texas show the amazing things that can happen when the elections are honest. DeSantis could be the next Reagan, but we know that he'll be cheated out of any victory he wins nationally.

Why shoot the messenger? Because you act as a more dangerous subversive than literally anyone the Left has at their disposal. It's a fundamental mental disease that the right has: the unwillingness to succeed and the demand for failure because it's more familiar.

Where the Left is physically incapable of accepting defeat, the right is physically incapable of accepting victory.

If the Left had any brains in their head, they could win 5-10 safe republican seats and destroy the entire populist movement in a single election. You'd walk into a death camp, I swear. Hell if they flipped Texas, but lost California, you commit mass suicide.

I am honestly at the point where I am more annoyed and disturbed by the Blackpilled than I am the Left. At least I know the Left wants to kill me, so I can plan for that. With some Blackpill types, I am half expecting them to stab me in the back because my continued resistance is preventing them from feeling the sweet release of death (after all, I should be as miserable as they are).

Meanwhile, the Left are entirely able to be defeated, because they and their corporate aligned masters are fucking dumb and are making decisions now that defy even basic logic. Unless of course you think you are an untouchable god who has already discovered the secrets of the universe (which they do).

I have pointed it out in a few threads now, but I will continue to because it is so bizarre of a self-own to me. According to a business podcast I was listening to discussing Disney’s current money woes, they were talking about how Florida is apparently in talks to build a high-speed rail network between its major cities. So of course, in Orlando, they asked for bids from the major amusement parks to have a direct access rail station built. Disney’s response was to scoff at the idea of a bid, and say that if anything, the railroad should be paying them for “driving traffic” on the line. Needless to say, they lost the bid to Universal.

This wasn’t even a woke or politically motivated own-goal. Disney just thinks they are too big to fail, and are now panicking that it isn’t working. But if you asked the Blackpilled among us, they would have told you Disney was unbeatable. Meanwhile, Disney is over there saying “Hold my beer.” It just took time.

Literally the only takeaway that matters: as long as ballot harvesting and mail-in voting exist, elections are illegitimate.

Reps need to either outlaw these, as in Florida, or start doing it themselves.

Fuck your black-pills, subversives.

As a guy who has aggressively spoken on voter fraud, the sabotage here was not from Democrats, but Republicans. Voter Integrity efforts were made in several states, and the patterns of fraud we see here might explain a few point swing in one way or another in key races. It doesn't explain why establishment Republicans, desperately seeking to weaken the MAGA movement, refused to fund those candidates.

Mitch McConnel didn't want to have to go through the upheval that "The Squad" regularly gave Nancy Pelosi, and didn't want populist pressure to stop the Catherdral's Neo-Liberal & Neo-Conservative consensus.

You might not like it, but I see this as good in the long term, so long as you all don't insist on crawling into a hole and dying.

There were major positive voting shifts for Republicans in this election, and MAGA candidates in uncompetative races did very well even if they lost. The voting trends are all heavily in the Red, and New York should be fucking setting alarm bells off for the Democrats. Oregon, New York, Colorado, and Nevada should never have been close.

The good news here is the bad news: the Democrats and Biden have decided to shift policy on absolutely nothing. They are going to continue to shoot themselves in the foot as they kick the can down the road for another 2 years. The inflation will continue to hurt them. The violent crime will continue to hurt them. The insane cultural war issues like killing babies, anti-white race hatred, institutional discrimination against asians, the environmentalist death cult, attacks on the energy industry are all going to continue to hurt them. The war profiteering will continue. The system will continue to de-legitimize itself.

Best of all: remember all that "push the effect of inflation & diesel shortages off until after the midterms so we can blame the Republicans for it?" If the Democrats want to consider that a victory, it's a Pyrrhic one.

So the Great Reset project will continue unabated and unhindered for another 2 years, further eroding the rights and freedoms and prosperity of Americans as well as further undermining what little capacity they have to fight back against it, but this is acceptable because it will make the blue half of the uniparty even less electable in 2024, which really just means that they'll have to be even more obvious about rigging it in their favor and the GOP establishment will have to work even harder to lose.

In other words, the status quo.

For whom, exactly, is this a Pyrrhic victory?

I'm not advocating for losing you idiot. I'm saying there are still advantages.

I don't get it. Are you alt-righter's so fundamentally trash that you are willing to actually seize upon Leftist black piling as the only way to fill your ranks? You know it's enemy propaganda, but instead of looking for an advantage, you further the black-pilling so you can hope to radicalize someone who is already going to be useless because of the defeatism you instilled, in the desperate attempt to do what: have someone to talk to?

It's gone from frustrating to comical at this point. You're complaining about "if you kill your enemies, they win", but all I here from you idiots is "if you kill yourself, you win." I know you're Leftists, but Leftists still oppose each other from time to time. It's like you're controlled opposition for the Left.

What makes you think The Great Reset was going to go unhindered then or now? The Great Reset is moving forward with force one way or another, and fundamentally there is going to be resistance and blowback even through non-federal political channels. That fight hasn't changed.

Further more, you think I'm saying that the Left's wins are acceptable, when I'm trying to point out there are pathways to victory that are still fundamentally untouched.

The Left is engaging in a Pyrrhic victory because they are going to do nothing but further de-legitimize themselves, while the right gets the opportunity to clear out it's establishment opponents and prove to the general population that the Left's policies shouldn't be tolerated.

I don't care that you don't understand that when an enemy doesn't adapt, they are prone to failure by keeping themselves vulnerable. If you insist on failure, rather than seeking opportunities, no one can, nor should, help you.

Watch the fucking video you moron. No one here believes the elections weren't rigged. The issue is whether or not you have the brains to use introspection.
