    trump wins PA primary

    ...but not all is sunshine----non-candidate Haley won 17%

    In my county she took 25%.

    On a more important race, my current Republican Representative Brian Fitzpatrick won with 62% of the vote over a rabid rino challenger

    Remember the “silent majority “.. there may well be a new silent majority.. all of the reddish purple voters who don’t talk to pollsters and who can’t see themselves supporting Trump and his actions, manners, antics..

    Texas and Florida are much bluer than we are led to believe.. in 2020. Trump won Texas with 52.39% and Florida with 51.22%.. what is 2.5% in Texas and/lor 1.5% in Florida of the “new silent majority” vote blue in 2024?. That would make Texas and Florida blue states.. the reaction (by election deniers) would make January 6 look like a food fight..

    Just something to think about..

    Before you get too bold let's wait until the figures come in in November.

    I hope you are right but I am only guardedly optimistic. biden is the wildcard in this. The dems need to draw voters and I am not sure that will happen.

    A little more on trump's numbers: trump got 83%, but only 29% of the voters went to the poles. I do believe that as time goes on more and more of the less fanatic will drop off---but not necessarily to biden.

    I should note that PA is a closed primary state---thus I could not vote---but my wife did and wrote in Liz Cheney
