It looks like Republicans are preparing to claim the 2022 Midterm Elections are “Stolen”

    I dunno. Whoever wins, wins. Research, decide, vote, and then make do with what comes from the elections. Ain't just my country, it's yours and the next guy's as well.
    There was a congressman, name escapes me, that had a really good quote- "When the election's over, the party's over." When I asked him about that he said that party politics are for elections only, because the country is not destined to be 100% of any one party and it's unconstitutional to represent only one given party when in office. He was there to represent everyone. And...he did.
    I am Republican, but even though I did not and will not ever vote for Obama, I am not going to ridicule his healthcare plan. For example- Bush is Republican, and he did more attacking the 2nd Amendment than Clinton and Obama together.

    You are an untrue witness. Clint0n did ban excellent Rifles and magazines under his godless administration. Bush allowed that Godless ban to expire. He restored the importing and US manufacture of excellent rifles and standard capacity magazines. 0bam0, after saying he wouldn't ban what was currently legal, tried to bring back clintons ban. You clearly are no 2nd amendment supporter, but a rino at best.

    Russia invading Ukraine began the issue with gas prices, and the subsequent reduction in oil production by Russia and Saudi Arabia, a month or so ago, reversed the improvement in prices.

    You probably don't know this, but inflation is a worldwide issue at the moment. It is actually better in the US than in much of the Western World. The same thing happened after the Great Flu Epidemic of 1918-1919.

    Of course, facts and history are not the friend of the one who wants to attack Democrats about these things.

    No one has claimed that.

    The issue is in the order in which they are counted in many states. Mail-in votes, and in some cases, early votes, are counted AFTER election day votes. A notable exception to this is was in Florida, where 2016 early votes and mail-in votes were added to the count immediately.

    People who claim election fraud with no evidence should be ashamed. Especially, so-called Christians.

    They did not "all" say that. Not even a sizable number.

    Gas prices were approximately $2.25/gallon in January 2021. They began to rise to almost $3.50/gallon in November 2021. Russia did not invade Ukraine until Feb 24, 2022. Gas prices soaring have come entirely on Biden's watch. He has now said he will shut down the coal mines and stop drilling. Sounds like a good way to solve the energy problem.

    The only reason gas prices have come down is the raiding of the emergency reserve that is intended for our use and not to be sold to China. He has definitely compromised the security of the country in doing so.

    One hundred thousand deaths from fentanyl coming through and open border.
    Inflation at a 40 year high from excessive government spending.
    Biden asking for more money evern when the original allocation for Covid has not been spent.
    Blatant pro abortion and LGBTQxyz with subsequent grooming of children for sexual gratification.
    Justification of transexuality and use of puberty blockers to defile our children and grandchildren.
    Just to name a few.

    Is this what you stand for as a Baptist?

    Bro Baptist Believer-

    I felt it would be remiss to not include the following:

    Skyrocketing crime
    Proposals to empty jail
    No cash bail. One commenter I heard said that a high 30% reoffended before their original case was heard
    Defunding police and the subsequent consequences that occur when there is no or limited civil authority
    Labeling of parents as domestic terrorists
    Proposal and intent to dissolve the God given pattern of the nuclear family.

    I was raised in a conservative Democratic home. I am now and have been for many years a register Independant voter.

    God is a god of order. I urge you, my brother, to reconsider the things that are righteous according to God and not a political party.

    Perhaps we just disagree?

    And who are you to judge me and my interests/standards? You do not even know me.

    So...how did it all shake out?

    God remains Sovereign and has ordained the leaders in this nation. Is it what y'all wanted?

    You gave untrue witness. You claimed something that was untrue. You told a lie to make anti-Second Amendment people to not appear as bad as pro-Second Amendment people. Tell the truth next time, and do not try to decieve people by telling things that are inaccurate. You probably just passed on something you heard. But have a care to only be truthful.
