The campaign needed all these people to replace Stewart? He was one guy.
It looks like we’re going to need a bigger masthead.
Must of been tough competition if the self proclaimed Trump cheerleader Eugene Delgaudio didn’t get a deck chair to sit in. I get the impression the rats are running for cover.
Kinda makes you nervous eh? Sometimes the unseen are more significant than the seen.
There are a number of Prominent Republican names that are not on the list — They know what they’re doing, we know what they’re doing, they know that we know what they’re doing.
You’re impressions aren’t votes in this election.
Delusions of grandeur also doesn’t get votes.
But I do have a vote and that impression makes a difference for me.
Yep and we have more… so much, much more.
Republican priorities. No answer for healthcare, but, by golly let’s have a tax increase to pay for a NFL stadium. A tax increase to subsidize billionaires.

Jeanine, how can you fault people for voting for Joe Morrisey, without faulting those who voted to keep the members of the Virginia Legislature in office who voted yes for the largest tax increase in Virginia history, HB2313?
You can’t, but you do it anyhow.
Good thing they’re not running this election.
BS, Comstock is running. Why should anybody listen to you? Either you do not know what you are taking about, or, you have an agenda? Either dump Trump or Comstock. Which is it going to be?

I’m a Republican, I support the nominee, no matter how kooky. Hell, I’d support Brodie and/or Shak if they were the nominee.
If we make a mistake in our nomination, I would prefer to clean it up in a party process rather than making the voters clean up our mess.
In the same way, electing Trump will repudiate the party machinadoras.
If you are the republican base, your opinion doesn’t count. And with your logic, neither does your vote.
At least you are honest about it. I can appreciate that.
Yeah, but Shak is a party treasure and legend.
I was referring to the Virginia legislature not running this cycle.
You should probably let her answer the question before fabricating a response for her.
Ok, I edited that part. You were right. Thanks.
VA was NEVER in play for Trump.
The road to winning VA now runs through NoVA. And NoVA doesn’t want anyone upsetting the apple cart, no trouble-makers or potential reformers. Their cushy lifestyle is dependent on maintaining the current status quo.
The government funds NOVA and they sure don’t want to upset that stream of wealth.
I wonder why the MSM is not talking about this ??

Interesting. So Rob Bell is on the Virginia team but John Adams is not. I thought I saw that Adams was supporting Trump.
I’ve heard Adams praising and calling for Trump’s election. Do you not know how this whole politics thing works out? All of the Virginia candidates/elected higher officials of the GOP are backing the nominee… Save a couple of Ashburn/McLean whackadoos.
That’s great! But aren’t some of these new Trump leaders associated with The Big Purge of the local committees not that long ago?
I’m not familiar with any big purge in the party but I’ll suggest it.
Quick, lock the barn door!
Late for what? They’re names on a masthead for the most part.
They send the signal that needed to be sent.
And the Ronin Corey Stewart still roams the hustings.
I have said since forever it was a YUGE mistake to give Virginia to the RPV. Trump should have brought in his own people from the get go. He should have never trusted or tried to play nice w/the dysfunctional RPV.
How many of these people decided to get on board w/the hopes of getting a place at the table?
It’s a joint operation that seems to be functioning pretty well from my point of view.
Are you praising John Whitbeck for a heck of a job well done?
Since I work in a Campaign HQ, have seen and heard a lot. will discuss this subject with others to see if a consensus can be reached.
Until then………… https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/49b77310a0c69e3b422a02300876ce847f28fec1b703166ae4f34b9a0c8d4033.jpg
Overall, given his governing Selfish Chorus of Crybabies,sure why not, but his approval rating is very much reflected in November.
Trump folks already laying blame. It’s the media. It’s “the establishment.” It’s RPV. It’s George Bush’s fault … wait, that excuse has already been spoken for.
There’s always plenty of blame to go around.
Have you ever heard the phrase “Re-arranging the deck chairs on the Titanic?”
You wish!
Yes it is like the phrase Hope and Change, schmuck.
Hey Clinton pea brained troll… can you please name one accomplishment your master of corruption has done in her filthy career? Being a Senator and Sec of State is not an accomplishment–she got that due to the Clinton political machine built by Bubba. Well okay… she was able to help Bubba build a corruption machine. You got that. But from Health Care to the Middle East… name one thing that bitch accomplished?
