Trump supporters at Mar-a-Lago protected by police from left wing extremists
"Peter" has some thoughts on the Mar-a-Lago raid.
The FBI/DOJ raid on Donald Trump’s home in Mar-a-Lago has been the biggest boon to Republicans since Ronald Reagan brought down the Berlin Wall. Democrats and Independents are switching to the GOP in droves due to their outrage over the unprecedented attack on a former POTUS and possibly the next GOP candidate for POTUS.
Trump’s political power has soared and nearly every candidate he has endorsed has won their primary, some beating incumbents who previously had voted to impeach Trump. Congresswoman Liz Cheney is a good example; she is the vice chair of the January 6th committee. She lost her primary race by more than thirty points.
Trump has not announced for the 2024 race yet, but he seems to be a shoe-in. The others will be competing for the vice president position on the ballot.
This has had a detrimental effect on the mid-term elections. Several of the Trump endorsed candidates for Senate and House positions may have won their primaries handily, but they may not win in the general election. Most independents and moderate Republicans are expected to vote for the most moderate candidates. Right or wrong, the Trump endorsement is viewed by many as an indication of right-wing extremism. That presents a voter barrier for the mid-terms.
The expected “Red Wave” may not materialize and the Democrats could maintain their control of Congress. It will all depend on voter turnout, so its extremely important that you cast your ballot and encourage all your fellow conservatives to do the same.
Another two years of the Biden, Schumer and Pelosi circus could be our ruin.
Republicans are so over-confident and complacent they won't get out of the house to vote, so the Democrats will retain control of Congress until the country collapses into chaos.

Its only logical: If you don't cast a ballot, you can't expect to win.

More interesting, but predictable things come out. All the FBI agents were Democrat donors and several of them were involved in the "Russia" fiasco. Biden knew of and approved the raid on Mar-a-Lago. The FBI left incomplete receipts; could they later add things that weren't there? Not your typical FBI procedures.

Don't be comfy, GOP. Your expected "Red Wave" may turn out to be pink.

Only if we were "inclusive", Gunny.

Si, we will maintain our control of Congress. With the open border, we will have the numbers to turn the "red Wave" into a Blue Tsunami. All the new "citizens" will get their driver's license and then register to vote. Thanks to Biden and Abbott for spreading us around the country so that we can take advantage of liberal voter registration practices and vote by mail schemes. Hoards of us are going to Oregon, where voting by mail is the only method used and they have liberal driver's license policies. Manana.

Closing the border should be our number one priority. What with 100,000+ fentenyl deaths - which is more than Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan combined - there is nothing more important. All these deaths are among primarily military age Americans. It is so shameful for Biden not to be held accountable for allowing these deaths to occur and avoiding any mention of them or even any recognition of the situation. Biden should be impeached and held criminally liable.
