The republican primary race in Pennsylvania is essentially a three-way tie going in to voting day tomorrow. All three of the top candidates are carrying approximately 25 percent of the vote with around 15 percent still undecided. It really is anyone’s race.
President Trump has sent robocalls into Pennsylvania to support Mehmet Oz as a last-minute effort to push his endorsement over the line. “I’ve just spent a lot of time with him. I did endorse him, and the reason is he’s tough, he’s smart and he really loves our country and he wants to do a great job for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.”
Fox News Sean Hannity also hosted Mehmet Oz on his evening broadcast to deliver his closing arguments, while Fox News Laura Ingraham provided the same opportunity for David McCormick. In the counterbalancing effort, Steve Bannon hosted Kathy Barnette for an interview Monday providing her the opportunity to speak to the Bannon audience.
The wild aspect to this race is the still high number of undecided voters as the final hours count down. McCormick representing the party candidate, with both Oz and Barnette splitting the MAGA base. Pennsylvania undecideds have a tough decision.
Mehmet Oz is not trusted by the base despite President Trump’s endorsement. Kathy Barnette is the landing place for many base voters who do not want to support the establishment McCormick and cannot bring themselves to vote for Oz. However, democrats and left-wing media are already showing their intent to weaponize Barnette’s attendance at the J6 rally in Washington DC, if she should win the primary {Video Here}.
As expected, David McCormick’s current position tying all three of them at the top of the polling, appears to have resulted as a splitter strategy from the fractured MAGA base.
Many people just cannot support Mehmet Oz because of his prior positions on issues of importance. Oz is by far President Trump’s most controversial endorsement of the year. As an outcome, those who refuse to vote for Oz lean heavily toward Kathy Barnette.
(Via Politico) – […] “You are seeing people move to McCormick because he is a trustworthy conservative,” said James Schultz, a former Trump White House lawyer who is close to McCormick’s campaign. “We have seen for this entire cycle Mehmet Oz’s struggle with the truth. With Barnette, there have been many questions surrounding her truthfulness as well.”
Messaging from McCormick’s campaign on Monday appeared to concede that he is one of multiple candidates crowded at the front of the pack. The campaign wrote in an election eve press release that McCormick would make the case to Republicans that he is “the only front-runner who grew up in Pennsylvania and shares the same conservative values as PA voters.”
A series of other twists in recent days have added to the sense of volatility ahead of Tuesday’s primary election. Lt. Gov. John Fetterman, the leading Democratic Senate candidate, remains hospitalized after suffering a stroke over the weekend. And Trump, on Saturday weighed in with a last-minute endorsement in the governor’s race, picking Doug Mastriano, the candidate who is publicly backing and campaigning with Barnette. (read more)
This race will be very interesting to watch on Tuesday as the votes come in. However, with the race so close, and with all three of the leading candidates willing to request a recount, we might not even know the results tomorrow.

Regarding the smears against Kathy Barnette; If our current congress were actually held to account, 80% of them would be in jail.
I voted for Kathy. And as long as she fights for America first, I really could care less if she’s an imperfect human being – as we all are.
Heh, 80% of them should be facing something more than a mere jail sentence.
Something involving rope, a tree or a lamppost.
Self serving profiteering traitors.
Whether Oz wins or no,
Trump loses by not endorsing MAGA candidate.
Perhaps everyone should define what it means to be MAGA exactly what are the prerequisites for being MAGA candidate.
What then?
“My MAGA is more MAGA than your MAGA.” – LOL
Maybe Barnette needs to run, win, and serve in the US House of Representatives and make a name for herself first
and THEN think about running for a seat in the US Senate?
You mean the yellow brick road OZ took
OZ already has name recognition, why would he do that? He can pull suburban housewives from both sides of the isle who watch his slop.
Dr. OZ says: wash your hands and maintain personal hygiene. He’s such a genius!
say … he wasn’t part of Oprah’s Alar Apple scare? Wood cutting board scare? Mad Cow burger scare? If he was … then he’s far too crazed and incompetent to serve in Congress. Period.
I agree he’s a doofus. Barf. But that changes what, exactly? Are you saying that McCormick or the Democrat is a BETTER choice. She has to WIN THE GENERAL.
Trump said he’d support Barnette if she wins the primary. If she can win it, then maybe she has a shot. We will find out soon enough.
He will lose some of those Oz-loving Dem Voters simply *because* Trump endorsed him.

And since he has no thread on here, a quick shout out . . . GOOD LUCK !
Get with the program North Carolina.
You mean like Trump took?
How about Oz does that first.
Nah, Oz figured it’s easeir to be a Democrat for decades. An Oprah Dem too. Then, switch, convince Trump to endorse you, and then vote Dem. because the R’s have not learned yet. Us conservatives have learned…the R’s not so much, and the RINOS er, GOPe, well, they are what they are.
let them join the winning team. we are not republicans – we are taking that party over and taking the democrat voters to
this 2 party system has been bullshit for to long, making us lose over and over and over. its time to hijack them both.
same reason verson jones gets attention
he pretty much is letting you decide his mother’s fate and custody falling to his sister he defines as mentally unstable.
if that isnt America First – i dont know what that is.
kinda pisses me off we are forcing him to throw his mother under to win for us.
Maybe Barnette should move to KY … and challenge that bitch Mitch?
Why should Barnette, who has been fighting in PA since 2019, leave?
How about Oz, who lives in New Jersey, and shows up here just for photo ops, just stay there?
If only we could get Rand Paul to stop endorsing him.
Trump loses little here. Trump is not God. MAGA is not a club.
We have a nation to save. Any group or candidate that tries to trump MAGA without Trump will not MAGA.
That goes for Barnette or Oz. Hopefully one of them wins today.
Trump has hedged his bets, he will support Kathy if she wins.
Marching on Jan 6 in support of him is a good start.
I think we know all what MAGA and America First means by this point.
And OZ is not either. And that is the problem.
He endorsed a liberal carpetbagger at complete odds with what MAGA is.
And there already was a home-grown MAGA candidate gaining momentum when he did it.
It was a bad endorsement, and it split the PA base, just a few months before the primary.
Let’s hope PDJT didnt have a plan when endorsing Oz.
MAGA is America – not Republican first.
The day we can penetrate the Democrat voters and let them vote for a better life – is the day America Wins.
agree.
the focus MUST ALSO BE at repopulating the administrative state.
I voted for Carla Sands
Heheh … I think Trump realizes there are no good options here, (Barnette will lose general, OZ is a democrat in disguise and McCormick is Mitch Inc.)
By supporting Oz, he’s actually pulling votes from McCormick to Oz. These are people who will not vote for Barnette thus would possibly vote for McCormick. Sure. Barnette will lose votes to Oz as well, but the surest loser in this chess move is McCormick.
I saw Sundance’s article yesterday and agree with him. If Barnette wins she better get her stories straight. I think she should have just been honest about questioning Obama’s background at the time, she could even cite his book.
Nobody wants the corrupt worthless GOPe nor the bleeding heart progressive either.
Barnette is the best potential for America First if she can get it together to pull off the general.
That’s a big “IF”.
Riddle me this. Suppose you are a die hard rock and roll fan. You hear Bono is coming to town. Bono is old, creepy and past his prime. BUT LOOK! There is this fabulous new young guy in town making a debut. Everyone who has heard him agrees, he’s EVEN BETTER than Jimmy Hendricks! His pitch is perfect and he plays all the right cords. He already has a small and growing loyal following.
Bono can still fill the stadium, but do you think this guy can? Especially if the press comes out and 24/7/365 says he’s really not that good.
The only way Barnette can win the general is if there is SO MUCH RED HOT HATRED of the democrats in PA that they would vote for anything but a democrat. She may be all that, but without the press supporting her, she’s not going to fill the stadium.
Agreed, Barnette’s no EVH.
It’s pretty red hot, and properly stoked the fire with get 7x hotter! The D’s have screwed PA and that needs to be a constant of whomever’s campaign.
That was Trump’s calculus. Here in Wisconsin we had a gal, Cindy Werner, who checked all the right boxes for her position on issues. She thought she would beat Gwen Moore and the Democrat machine. She lost the primary to a guy who was for clean water and against poverty. So for her record, she only lost that race by 300 votes, where she could have lost to Moore by 70,000 votes. Doesn’t matter how pure you are if you can’t win.
I’ve never heard of her, but then again, I’m closer to Sodom than Gomorrah. Apparently she’s now running for Lt Governor.
Most voters never heard of her either. Maybe there is something to name recognition…
I’d rather use Eric Clapton, Kid Rock or Florida Georgia Line to “fill that stadium” in your example, but I do get your drift.. Bono is too busy shilling for transhuman warmongers to fill up any stadiums these days..
You are completely wrong.
What Trump has done is split the MAGA vote.
He’s forcing his base to choose between Oz or Barnette.
The only one who benefits from that is McCormick.
Maybe. We shall see 🙂
Choosing ONE Republican candidate to endorse, between two imperfect contenders, should be all that’s needed to *avoid* the split.
Barnette isn’t worth all this trouble. Why divide the MAGA vote for her?
Because she has been here in PA, campaigning for Senate, first, since early last year.
Oz just showed up here, like a carpet bagger, from out of state, a few months ago.
Oz is the interloper here, and he is very un-MAGA on the issues.
Why divide the MAGA vote for him?
Name one vote that will come up in the Senate – that Oz would vote for that will be Anti Maga.
are tranny kids coming up for a vote in the senate?
whats the other thing people keep saying bad about Oz….
a vote For Islam coming up?
whats the thing that he will vote on against our wishes.
Gun control laws. Take your pick on which variety or version of restraint he votes for. And he will.
And when he does, you will fly back into the woodwork.
I could go on, but that alone is sufficient to throw him off the train.
no Gun law is coming up if we hold the senate and get the house.
you know that.
Oh really …
This guy is just itching to have the Government regulate guns.
I gave you one answer, and you can’t handle it.
CDC should be studying gun violence is what he said. So the CDC that put us through covid hell is trusted to study gun violence? And what sort of recommendations might they have? Maybe the WHO can swoop in and take all our guns to keep us safe.
I don’t know but that doesn’t put me at ease at all.
There are people, even in the MAGA base who still believe anything the “officials” say. I posted something about vitamins on another thread it was rejected because it went against what the “officials” say.
because there is a portion of the MAGA vote that gets rubbed wrong by PDJT and they jump on the opportunity to let us all know he isnt God.
I try and remind them – he isnt God, he is our Weapon, and to disarm us is War.
Sometimes he is sometimes he not, so then.
I would say OZ isn’t worth the trouble.
If its MAGA, AmericaFirst Nationalism, vs Uniparty WEF Globalism, and THAT is the battle, then EVERY Candidate should be like MTG, Boerbert, etc.
No polite, polished/poll tested pablum, …
We need MAGA candidates who aren’t concerned with trying to appeal to some mythical “moderates and Dems”, that are a creation of polls and bots.
Run ON MAGA, agressive opposition to MANDATES, and the WHO Treaty.
Saying the 2020 election was stolen, and Biden is illegitimate.
On opening the oil spigot, and closing the Border.
On School choice, Nationwide, and ending Rowe.
How do we KNOW a candidate like Burnette can’t win in Penn?
Self fulfilling prophecy, courtesy the same people who gave you Arlen Specter, Bush, McStain and Romney for POTUS, etc.
“We need MAGA candidates who aren’t concerned with trying to appeal to some mythical “moderates and Dems”, that are a creation of polls and bots.”
AMEN. Given everything we have seen and endured since June of 2015 – yes, before that too but candidate Donald trump brought the abuse into focus – I cannot believe there are still patriots who believe the old canards about “name recognition” and appealing to “moderates and dems” and all that nonsense. As far as I am concerned you are either America first or you are not.
I cannot believe there are still patriots who believe the old canards about “name recognition” and appealing to “moderates and dems”
I can’t believe everyone is still falling for the incumbents’ splitter trick. Same trick, works every time. It keeps their good old boys in power because the best fighters on our side always fall for it.
There are no good outcomes here as the Good old boys put our side in check.
We have no General. We herd cats, they have unified battle plans.
Barnette isn’t worth all this trouble?
She’s more MAGA than all of em’ that’s why and remember Trump forced the divide
I think the outcome of this is going to very humbling for all of us.
hopefully we rally together in the end.
51 Democrat Senators will be hell on earth.
Take your fairy tale R vs. D world back to the children’s book section.
RINOs routinely have cast the deciding votes to throw America over the cliff.
Give the Dems the Senate – I’m tired of the bullshit too. bring that war on you want.
Trying to win with clever picks and explaing how – doesnt seem to be working.
Here’s a better idea.
Why don’t we just elect MAGA candidates? Ones that actually support the core MAGA principles.
And stop accepting the lesser of two evils, because it’s not. And history has proven it.
Republicans are not conservatives anymore, let alone MAGA. The GOP has been at war with its base for decades now.
There’s a reason there is barbed wire around the Capitol, and virtually no Republicans have a problem with it.
Four people control EVERYTHING that happens in Congress;
Majority and Minority leaders of both houses.
Of the two Houses, the Senate is more powerful, the House is the “Jr. member”.
And, in the Senate McConnell the more powerful.
So, ultimately ONE person.
the man behind the curtain,..
All those people are merely puppets now. Even Mitch McConnell has lines he cannot cross.
All the ones you see on TV take orders from elsewhere, or they are promptly destroyed. The Swamp is self-policing, with an inertia all its own. Call it the Fourth Branch, call it something else. Call it whatever you like. Even the Leaders and Speakers follow the ‘rules’.
The ones pulling the ultimate strings are the forces in the shadows that are actually fighting us, and what the People are attempting to do to change a broken paradigm. Some of the strings are very long.
You along with a few others have been putting up a valiant fight for Barnette the last couple days. Very nice to see true conviction in a belief and I am pulling for Barnette to pull it out.
The argument that Trump can depend on Oz to back him once in the senate makes no sense. As far as I know, Trump has not announced that he’s running so the point that Oz would be a dependable vote for his policies is mute. I believe Oz would be a reliable democrat vote for anyone other than Trump and even that is questionable.
When do the Polls close?
8pm in PA according to Dept of State

thx, El.
When Fox calls it.
Around 5 if its up to Fox……………….
Fox hasn’t called it yet?
😁😂🤣
wow. Trump is repeating ALL the LIES spread about Kathy Barnette.
If he wants to keep his reputation in tact, he needs to never, ever, listen again to whoever it was that had his ear during this PA. election.
Initially, I thought he was concerned only about the Muslim and gay tweets, and I had to give him that.
But, apparently, it goes much further >>>> Straight to all the lies and corrupt smears.
What “lies” did President Trump repeat?
The one about her wanting a statue of Obama ___ true.
The one about her losing an election by a lot ____ also true.
CONTEXT.
The idea was to put a statue of Frederick Douglas on one side and Obama on the other.
Statue in the middle is the statue of Lincoln with grateful slaves at his feet, celebrating the signing of the Emancipation Declaration. This is the Statue BLM/Dems wanted to tear down.
So KBs idea was to keep the Lincoln and freed slave statue and then show what The ED had led to>>>> Douglas, powerful and influential leader, and Obama > >> Prez.
I think it’s a brilliant idea to respectfully tell black and white Leftys to STFU>>>> We. Have. Arrived.
D*mn.
Trump is an idiot here for listening to these goons.
She lost in a heavily Dem district.
But then, you knew that.
Do you work for GK by any chance?
What do you like Most about Barnette? Something I can share with others that arent sure about her.
She has so many great vids out there.
If your friends have a short attention span, the George Washington one is a good little 3 min. vid.
For sure, Trump has never seen the uncut version because she is mirroring the exact same sentiments that Trump expressed in his beautiful speech at the Detroit black church before the 2016 election.
ie. That black Americans need to be proud of the contributions they made in building this country into what it became.
Or just go to her twit page and get something fr/ there.
She is an excellent speaker. If they liked Palin, they’d like Barnette. Both are Pro- America and Pro- American People.
I personally have a problem with the George Washington video. This was my response to it:
As a black person I don’t see why going to George Wahington’s home and hearing “White people talk about how they revere President Washington” would be a problem. I don’t know why that would be emotional or cause me to weep. That statement – she said it twice – is enough to raise a sliver of “hold it” in my mind.
As a Christian I believe the entirety of God’s Holy word. There I read that “all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God”. ALL, A-L-L, every last human being – ALL. There has been only one exception to that condemnation – Jesus Christ.
So yes, slavery is a display of man’s inhumanity to man because it is a sin. But so are the weekly drive by shootings in Chicago. I refuse to hold one group responsible for one kind of atrocity but blindly allow other atrocities from any other group because you know “slavery”.
Yes, my ancestors were slaves, but guess what they were sinners too. So were the people who “owned” them. Any of my ancestors who died unrepentant are hell bound. Any of their “owners’ who died unrepentant are also hell bound – “the wages of sin is death” – all sin.
Jesus died for all slaves – slaves of sin and satan. Regardless of the color of their skin.
I’ve got no problem with her looking at the bigger historical picture.
The “white people” were looking *only* at George Washington, our 1st Prez.
She was looking at the whole thing> Washington’s home, and the slave quarters on the grounds.
And explaining it to her kids.
Could she have left out the reference to “white” and said just “people”?
Sure. But I’m not gonna pick her apart over that. People do that all the time and it works both/all ways.
Black, White, Asian, Hispanic, etc., we all label each other constantly.
How does she know those “white” people were not looking at the full historical context of George Washington? Why could they not be doing both? Why does she have to traumatize herself and her children because “white” people admire and revere the first President? Can black people admire and revere the first President of the United States?
The problem is the labeling needs to stop. I don’t hear “conservatives” talking about content of character or a color-blind society anymore. It’s all race all the time. We have bought into the “othering” narratives of the left.
got to wonder why a win in PA and moving on wasnt enough. somehow Karl Rove forced the MAGA group to get bent over and splitting themselves up over a non issue.
Did she run for Senate in 2020? or did she just get elevate to split the vote in 2022. sure she is awesome, but this wasnt worth it.
She ran for a House seat, in a very Dem district. So lost.
She’s got a much better chance statewide.
And she’s been running this race for over a year. It’s not like she just hopped in as a “disrupter” last month.
The ONLY thing that has elevated her name are these anti- Barnette fools who have told so many lies about her that people were led to research and look more closely.
If they’d been smart. They would have left the criticism at the Muslim and gay twits- at least those are real! That may have sunk her.
But nooooo, they had to start cut and splicing vids and spreading lies. Which forced people to go to the original material and >>>> VOILA!
Hello Kathy Barnette- welcome to the Main Stage!
She’s just a very good speaker and presents herself well.
Trump has been very careful on his direct attacks on Barnette.
He knows he may have to reverse himself.
He can always say he just found out the context of the Obama statue and she was right.
I doubt, however, he’ll bring up her loss in that Dem district because he lost it by 7% more than she did .
wow.
So she’s already gained 7% in that Dem district.
LOL.
How they hate a Christian in Damascus! … and pretty much all over Turkeydom as well.
And how they will pay for it when Russia turns her guns upon them
again! It is soothing to the heart to abuse England and France for
interposing to save the Ottoman Empire from the destruction it has so
richly deserved for a thousand years.
These degraded Turks and Arabs… When Russia is ready to war with them again, I hope England and France will not find it good breeding nor good judgment to interfere…
If ever an oppressed race existed, it is this one we see fettered around us under the inhuman tyranny of the Ottoman Empire. I wish Europe would let Russia annihilate Turkey a little–not much, but enough to make it difficult to find the place again without a divining-rod or a diving-bell.
My husband has been to Turkey on business. Once he stayed for a month. The people in Turkey that he met were wonderful.
He arrived in Turkey and his corporate card didn’t work. A cab driver was the first person who helped him. His luggage was delayed and a man he was going to work with showed up to his hotel with socks, underwear, undershirts etc bought out of his own pocket. At the hotel where he lived for a month the people had a work party in what they called the forest and invited him. He danced with them around a fire which is crazy because he won’t dance other than an occasional slow dance with me. They fed him great food . They knew he was Christian and when he wanted to go wander around an area he shouldn’t they warned him.
I luv Mark Twain and I dont like Oz but I feel the need to stick up for the people of Turkey who looked after my husband when he was far away from me.
This is who Trump thinks can win the Repub. Primary:
what does #EndTheBan mean?
dig
I clicked on it. End the ban refers to the fda’s ban on gay men donating blood.
Is that supposed to mean that Dr. Oz wants to take your guns away?
He doesn’t, but thanks for the irrelevant tweet from over 4 years ago.
Oddsmakers at Predictit dotorg are now showing chances of winning today :
Of. Course. it does not mean he wants to end guns.
It means EXACTLY what it says>>>>> Oz wants the CDC- of all the corrupt .gov. agencies- to have input on the issue. And he wants you to pressure your reps. to agree w/ him!
FYI>> No American gets to vote on CDC membership.
This issue belongs in the hands of Congress and Senate.
Now 3 hours before the polls close:
With about a hour to go until the polls close:
irrelevant twit fr/ 2018, huh?
And yet you are using KB’s twits fr/ 2015 to smear her.
Sorry, fair is fair.
Oz: “It’s time we treat shootings as a public health problem.“
The very same wording used by all those who want to destroy the 2nd Amendment.
yup.
And John Fetterman is now getting a pacemaker after his stroke.
Walking (not at the moment), high-profile proof, to not get the clot shot.
Uniparty approved: Oz, McCormick and Lamb
Not approved by the uniparty: Fetterman and Barnette. 🙄
The left are against Barnette because she is real, not establisment. The left is helping OZ, etc..very telling.
Steve Bannon – JUST POINTED OUT at 1730EST
( POST INTERVIEW of Ms Barnette ),
that THE ESTABLISHMENT IS Against Barnette – ” BECAUSE SHE DID NOT ASK PERMISSION ”
AND
REMINDED ” THOSE OUTSIDE ” of PA to REMEMBER THAT FACT
Wait, what?
” The left is helping Oz ?”
Helping a Trump-endorsed candidate?
Stop the pressses! New headline. Democratic Party committing harikari in PA.
The left is of course helping him. He’s deep down a Uniparty RINO. The Uniparty is color blind; red and blue are fictions for the rubes. They can ‘work’ with Oz on things the Uniparty likes.
They are frightened of Barnette, who won’t play their game.
PDJT botched this pick, and split the vote as a result.
Already making excuses? Not necessary. Better luck next time.
She’s still young and has a promising career ahead of her.
“Helping a Trump-endorsed candidate?”
Sigh…….
They are helping Oz because they want him and Barnette to split the votes that will not be given to the unpopular incumbent.
Why dont the hater of OZ just get over it. who knows better the hack on here or Trump. Trump was an outsider and his 2nd choice was OZ. Get behind OZ. VOTE OZ
I have lost alot of respect for Trump over his comments about Kathy. He called into an Oz rally, apparently, and said it would be catastrophic if she won.
I feel that Trump does not like his supporters…she went to the Capitol upon his request of his followers; she is a regular grassroots MAGA person….and he dumps on her. I feel like he has become an elitist RINO…hope I get over it because he was a great POTUS, but right now I am not very happy.
Concur. If you can’t say something nice about someone then it’s best to say nothing, as the saying goes, would have been best in this circumstance.
Please get a grip on your emotions.
He said it would be catastrophic if she won today . . .
because he knows that there’s NO WAY she could win in November.
Trump is not “an elitist RINO.”
OMG, are you kidding me with that emotions crap…she would have won the primary if he had endorsed her…take a hike..jerk.
The worst thing about it is, he parroted the cut and spliced vid smears, which are LIES.
And as someone who was treated the same by MSM and Repub Party >>> he should know better than that<<<.
Not sure he’s an “elitist RINO”, but he definitely disgraced himself here in his treatment of KB.
At some point, he’s gonna owe her a Big. Apology. and Mea culpa.
Well, if she still wants to put up a statue of any kind for that race-baiter Obama she won’t get any help from Trump; or the rest of us deplorables for that matter. No apology incoming there, that’s for sure.
If you are right about the media using Jan 6 against Barnette, I definitely want her to win the nomination. Bring that on! Against a black female conservative America lover. Bring it on. For that matter, the republican party should make Jan 6 the primary talking point of the election. Since they appear poised to dismiss these protesters as extremists, perhaps the media will do us the favor and make it an issue. As much as they have been trying to do so unsuccessfully at least outside of their own bubble, let them try to double down with it. It needs more light shown on it. And let’s talk about poll integrity while we are at it. A pox on all their banned subjects.
So, FNC just did a short segment interviewing a few people who were Oz voters.
They asked “Why do you support Oz?”
Every single one of them answered “Because Trump endorsed him”.
Not one of these people could say one thing Oz supported that they were “for”.
One person even said>> “I was going to research all the different candidates, but when Trump endorsed Oz, I just voted Oz”.
Great. Just great. /s
Lemmings. Mindless, unthinking.
That is no different from certain Democrat sects.
There has been a lot of talk about loyalty. Trump only endorsed Oz in mid April. Many, many people in PA have been supporting Barnette for months or some for even more than a year.
What about them and their loyalty? That is why you are seeing a lot of passionate for Kathy.
If “so many people” have been supporting her for months now
how come her polling numbers hovered in the low teens until just recently?
Better luck next time.
You sound increasingly foolish.
The polling then doesn’t matter. The polling now does. It’s called a race for a reason.
If the election were months before the voting based on polling, Hillary would have been President.
Even the late Rush Limbaugh would point out this truth every cycle for the campaign dullards.
And right now, it’s a dead heat race.
Because the MSM and RINOs Bash Fest got her name out there. BIGLY.
He oughtta smack whoever it was that was feeding him the BS about Barnette.
Dang. Some friend *that* is.
Makes him look like a fool.
I’m just going to add this, because in another 90 minutes it will be academic for now.
Those blindly relying on PDJT’s pick as some sort of higher political standard that we must blindly trust as part of some divine MAGA plan are sadly mistaken when it comes to Pennsylvania.
Here in PA, his selections to date have been less than stellar. He has frankly not done well in his endorsements. And Pennsylvanians have suffered for it.
Trump’s PA Senatorial pick in 2018 of Lazy Lou Barletta was a complete disaster, and an embarrassment for the state MAGA base. The guy refused to come to SE Pa, barely campaigned, and got completely trounced by perhaps the dumbest member of the US Senate. We wasted money on him, and told him off after he literally stopped campaigning at the end.
Barletta was such an embarrassment in 2018, Trump was literally forced to endorse Mastriano at the last minute in the 2022 Gubernatorial race.
And in the present PA Senatorial race, Trump’s first “complete and total” endorsement of Sean Parnell promptly imploded under a cloud of personal family issues. Another disaster.
But it was worse than that. I knew there was something odd about Parnell when he kept appearing on Breitbart Radio with the GOPe children every Saturday. Turns out, Parnell was in fact a RINO. And he has promptly stabbed Trump and MAGA in the back. Parnell was literally out last week campaigning for the McConnell/Establishment candidate, Dave McCormick — and AGAINST Oz and Barnette.
How’s that for a “complete and total” endorsement?
The latest one is Oz. And now we are told this guy, who has a known disposition against core MAGA issues, must be accepted blindly, because “Trump knows better than we do”. Bull.
So when the cult sycophants say we must just blindly go along with whatever person PDJT picks in Pennsylvania, because “Trump knows better”, the track record of his picks make them look simple and foolish.
Here in PA, he does not know better. And we have the electoral wreckage to prove it.
Now Pennsylvanians, if you have not already done so, go out and vote for Kathy Barnette.
So, the good people of the commonwealth let their presidential Electoral Votes go to whom in 2020? Maybe they can blame Trump for that too? Go ahead. (Oh, and please ease up on the personal jabs, they’re uncalled for. Thanks!)
That’s a false equivalency argument. Trump holds no blame for PA election integrity issues. And he may not hold blame for his endorsements that fail to pan out, either. But that also means that we here in PA do not need to blindly follow them like mindless lemmings.
Hannity’s crusade against Barnette suggests to me that she is the best candidate. The biggest fear of the GOPe is a senator who won’t play along with the foreign war kickback scams. Nothing I’ve heard about her background is particularly concerning given the issues our country is facing. Schumer threatens Supreme Court justices and GOP senators are too timid to say anything. It’s time we stop being defensive about dumb side issues. When they bring up race or Islamophobia or whatever, don’t play along. Don’t answer, don’t apologize, and go on the attack over open borders, pointless wars, giveaways to woke big businesses, and grooming in schools. The majority of people, democrats and republicans and independents, are with us on those issues. So stick to them.
PA ground report. Blue city. Voter turn out was extremely light in my district as of when I visited the polls between 4-5 pm. Lowest primary turn out I’ve seen in a long time. Saw a Mastriano sign on the way to the polls, but no signs for his Democrat opponent. Haven’t seen many yard signs at all this primary season except for a handful of Fetterman signs. Are (D) voters not feeling energized this year? Wouldn’t blame them. Feeling good about my vote for Barnette, Mastriano, and Diamond regardless of what the final results are.
Thx for the report, Comp.
Hope they didn’t all vote by mail. Can they do that in PA.?
The PA mail-in problems have already started! Predictable!

Who do you think would be a more effective speaker against this crap, Oz or Barnette?
…” Investigative reporter Christopher Rufo on Tuesday revealed the School District of Philadelphia encouraged teachers to attend a transgender conference on “kink,” “BDSM,” “trans sex,” “bigger dick energy,” and “banging beyond binaries.”…..

Is that a serious question?
Oz would say he would have to “study the issue carefully”. This weasel can’t even bring himself to say the 2020 race was stolen.
I think Barnette would have organized a public rally outside the School District Headquarters before the reporter got back to his office.
LOL.
Didn’t think I needed to add the /s to that one, older.
Taxpayers are paying for this?
Voted this morning for Doug Mastriano, Teddy Daniels and Kathy Barnette and all of the Right For Bucks Candidates. RINOs in PA can shove it where the sun doesn’t shine. They have done nothing for MAGA or election integrity.
Let’s see how much the Dominion machines steal in this primary.
