Christie to Tell GOP Voters the 2020 Election Wasn’t Stolen

[Toro]

Chris Christie is going to tell Republicans at the debate that the 2020 election was not stolen.

Will MAGA listen? Of course not! MAGA’s self-identity is too enmeshed in their the lies and deceit their Orange Messiah and their echo chamber have told them. But it’s important because for the Republican Party to become a semi-normal political party again, it must rejoin reality and face The Big Lie head on.

A former Republican Party operative who left in 2016 after being in the party for over 30 years told me not too long ago that 10-20% of the party used to be crazy. They’d be the people grumbling at the back of the room. Now the crazies are 50-60% of the party, and are often running things at the local or even state level. For the Republican Party to become viable again amongst swing voters, that percentage has to go down appreciably.

Chris Christie is ready to tell GOP voters on August 23 that former President Donald Trump lost the 2020 election. God bless him, as President Joe Biden likes to say, and God bless the (probably mostly) Democrats who sent the former New Jersey governor enough small checks to get him to the debate stage so that he can tell this truth.​

Christie is going to hammer Trump, in absentia, about everything. And he will hammer the other candidates about Trump. We expect those who have qualified for the debate to have readied their January 6th spin: It wasn’t an insurrection, but violence is never right, but many patriots were expressing heartfelt concerns, etc.​

But of course, without the Big Lie, no one would have attacked the Capitol. And Trump wouldn’t have been indicted for trying to steal the 2020 election. Polling now shows the majority of Republican voters who were led astray by Trump’s malignant fiction has grown even larger.​

And now Ron DeSantis seems suddenly to agree with Christie. This kind of thing can happen when you feel you have nothing left to lose. The other candidates may not feel as desperate as the Florida governor. Will they agree?​

The fact this has to still be said shows what a clown car the Republican Party has become and the great orange Dotard is their ringleader.

Christie is going to hammer Trump

Because thats all he has. Thats all he ever talks about. Trump broke his fat ass, just like he did you.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

Too many people recognized the fraud as it was happening.

Christie hugged shitstain obama. He will never be forgiven.

 

[MarathonMike]

The same people who believe there was no election tampering in the 2020 election also believe that Joe and Hunter Biden made $50 million dollars from hostile foreign countries by being honest businessmen. It shows how effective Democratic Media is at deflecting and gaslighting.

The American people have given the leader of an attempted coup, license to continue to operate in public to take down democratically elected government.

And the military is failing to act appropriately.

All Fat Bastard is going to do at the debate is tell the rest of them to get into his belly.

Christie has been slimming down quite a bit. He's going to rise in the polls along with Pence as another anti-Trump.

Some of the others will try to join them too.

The religious right can't continue to live the big lie when the evidence against Trump has become so overwhelming.

Our super religious forum members are so far silent but they'll come out soon.

Of course not. MAGA is smothered in an overwhelming sense of entitlement. They are OWED power, in their own twisted world view. They are infallible and can't lose.

Any loss they incur is theft. Any consequence, a 'witch hunt'.

And the ever-present sense of victimhood among the MAGA faithful is the dissonance between the real world and how they think things should be.

Its a very whiny political movement.

Christie to Tell GOP Voters the 2020 Election Wasn’t Stolen​

Which guarantees that Christie won't be the nominee in 2024.

Which guarantees that Christie won't be the nominee in 2024.

His savaging of Trump made that a foregone conclusion. I think Christie is positioning himself for 2028, hoping that the GOP shifts away from its 'let's terminate the constitution and attack the capitol' phase and back toward more traditional conservatism.

I'm skeptical that's going to happen. But if it does, he'd be well positioned for a post Trump GOP.

Haley is taking an interesting approach of leaning into the lack of electability of Trump without explicitly trashing him. It seems more focused for a path to success this election cycle. A long shot, to be sure. But at least possible.

Honesty will get you NOWHERE with the MAGA CULT. They thrive off of lies and an occasional juicy conspiracy theory. I know, because I have family members and friends who are dedicated MAGA. They ignore the media until a new whacky conspiracy theory arrises. Then they watch FOX or NEWSMAX and wait for it to be repeated.
