Well laid out Newt.

I've been active for 46 years and been through many election cycles, local, state ,national and international, so I would add when the President promised 5K, to every voter, if we won... I cringed, knowing most Americans would take that as he trying to buy votes, reflecting shades of Tammily Hall election tactics, that in my opinion would boomerang and did, big time.

Another thing is when ever a cabinet member spoke with the President to the public ,that member would start off with great praise towards the President ,each one, every time they addressed the nation... but in my opinion, I suspect most Americans would liken this to ass kissing on the worlds stage, on a grand scale, and I've no doubt it rubbed many the wrong way.

The fact that the media suppressed the good Trump has done ,from the public along with covering up how we got into the expensive mess the President had to clean up was also a major factor to good effect and that combined with a brash NYC delivery rubbed the sensitives the wrong way so take these factors along with Newts insights then add the possibility of election tampering ,which remains to be seen then you have where we are today.

God help us all but onward none the less.

"Vance asserted that the defeat could have been avoided if Republicans had: ended the war with Iran,"

And Then What Happens? Right back where we were on Nov. 5 2024?

What do you have to say about his questioning of our relationship with Israel? You seem to have ignored that part in your analysis of Vance's remarks.

Our saving grace in this country has always been that our side looked at the world with a more rational perspective. We understood that the benefits of defending our country sometimes outweigh the short-term pain resulting from those decisions. Now, isolationists like JD Vance and his comrades in the isolationist and Groyper camps are increasingly sounding like the Democrats and the far left. They are not only questioning the importance of the war against an Islamic regime that has been fighting us for more than 47 years, but are also cloaking their entire argument in anti-Israel narratives. The fundamental problem with JD and his worldview is not necessarily how best to protect the US against our enemies. Rather, it is to denigrate our ONLY real ally in this world, appease our detractors with platitudes that sound good, and blame the Jews for everything.

I've always had tremendous respect for you, Mr. Speaker. You will always be considered a hero for your actions and victories, especially during your tenure as Speaker. Please clarify where you stand on these issues today.

It’s not a tsunami election. It’s a rigged election orchestrated as part of a deep state color revolution to overthrow our government.

A color revolution consists of artificial election results and a bribed media ecosystem colluding to convince the people they voted for a leftist government. It is a paid off/bribed ‘wall’ of tv newscasters, news editors, journalists, celebrities, online news sources, polls, NGO election groups and more that create a barage of news informing the public that the ‘democrats won’. Our deep state leftist government operatives have done this to multiple nations around the world and, now, these deep state operatives are focusing their dirty tricks on the American people.

I passed a number of gas stations today. Gas was$3.19. Prices have been steadily coming down. The GOP ran a stupid campaign with pretty poor candidates. Losing to all those commie socialists tells you everything you need to know. Bad candidates. Worse messaging.

Meanwhile CNG production and prices in the US have plummeted due to the current situation and producers are burning 🔥 off CNG because of no storage capacity and no usage for it here domestically...

Well, our insanity continues as the US is addicted to foreign countries for crude oil 🛢 needs... if we were truly energy secure 💯, Iran striking oil producers and exporting routes and shipping would mean nothing to us...

We produce enough natural gas to power our transportation grid and have enough proven reserves to last 4 centuries, yet we're foolish to stay on the same course of crude oil 🛢 and distillates of gasoline and diesel... CNG burns much cleaner and is much less harmful on engine wear and costs than gasoline with engines lasting 3x longer... we have the infrastructure already in place for access to tap into existing natural gas lines to install fuel pumps for CNG at filling stations... we'd be paying the equivalent of $1.60 per gallon of gasoline in CNG powered vehicles... this insanity must stop! I speak to this as a mechanic who has driven and operated and repaired and done maintenance on CNG powered vehicles and equipment as well as gasoline ⛽️ and diesel ⛽️ and LP gas vehicles and equipment for 39 yrs y'all...
