Ok, I get super tired of people telling us that everything is hopeless because the election mechanisms are broken.
Baloney. This assertion is incorrect and discourages voters.
Remember, I was in Las Vegas with Ric Grenell after the election. I know there are problems. The question is whether the problems are so extensive that they negate any hope of success in the electoral system.
The fact is that they are not. We can still win, and will.
Remember, the fight was in about six big cities. It was not everywhere. Everywhere else we did well. We will crush it in 2022.
Second, in some of the disputed places (like GA) we are fighting back with electoral security laws.
Third, and here's the hard truth, we lost in large part because the GOP failed to prepare the legal battlefield like the Dems. When I got to LV, there was a GOP lawyer there. A. As in one. In one of the top six battle zones, we had one lawyer on the ground. A great guy, but A guy.
This time we need to be ready. We need to fight in the courts to shape the battlefield. We will lose some and win more.
It will be hard. Yes, they cheat. Yes, the media sides with the America-hating Dems. Yes, it's unfair. And? So? We gotta win outside the margin of fraud (43K votes changing would have Trump II in office).
We don't get there whining because it's tough. We gotta be tougher.

My new @townhallcom column channels Chumbawamba - you get knocked down, you get up again…
“Well, that sucked — nay, it super sucked. It sucked like the giant black hole at the center of the galaxy. There’s no silver lining to this cloud; the best you’re going to get is some aluminum. But we’ve been here before. Not to this extent for a long time, but we have been here before. We’ve had bad nights. And Tuesday was a very, very bad night.
OK, so we’re going to sit and cry about it? Are we going to give up? Not unless we want to give up our country. And I don’t want to give up our country.”
Yeah, It Blows… So What? Life Is Hard. Toughen Up. https://townhall.com/columnists/kurtschlichter/2026/11/05/yeah-it-blows-so-what-life-is-hard-toughen-up-n2685949
