My guess is not only didn't the visit help him, it actually hurt him. Trump is so polarizing, what good could it possibly have done Mackenzie? Mackenzie had no primary, only the upcoming general against a strong Democrat. Bob Brooks beat Ryan Crosswell, who was immensely qualified, well financed and campaigned hard.
I surmise that Mackenzie didn't have that much choice about the visit to Mack. Trump, as usual, was motivated by his own ego, he couldn't even remember Mackenzie's name.
Mackenzie has been a grinning sycophant since day one, so now he will pay the price come November. While the Republicans will squeeze out some encouragement by the turnout at Mack, they better not overvalue it. Maybe they will get lucky, and Trump won't return before midterms.
It seems many have concluded the Republicans will suffer major losses in the up coming midterms. I would not bet a lot on it, with the democrat party still stuck in woke ideology and moving further left with dreams of asset taxes etc. The democrats should have an opportunity, but when it comes down to the actual election, they still have little to offer, they may be disappointed. Much of their strategy is still to tie everything to Trump, we will see if that really works.
ReplyDeleteRyan Mackenzie won his spot in Congress because Democrat Susan Wild was so disappointing in office. I expect Mackenzie to do just fine at Midterms. Why? Because now, the entire Democrat/Socialist Party is so disappointing with their ultra radical views and anti-American behavior during this celebration of our 250th year.
ReplyDeleteI give one more term before any decision to vote out Mackenzie. Not enough evidence to toss him out this soon.
Tell me please what anti- American behavior?
ReplyDeleteDisrupting, assaulting, and vandalizing. ignoring local laws, interfering with police and fire workers attempting to keep order and protect. Using our public schools as propaganda centers to promote the notion that America is bad. No longer teaching American History, and Civics, for example. Awarding academic scholarships to non-citizens first over American applicants.
DeleteAccepting funding from foreign sources to incite chaos on our streets. Ignoring American Constitutional law as it was originally written. Filing lawsuits to prevent perfectly legal deportations.
And yes, enabling more election cheating by creating many new opportunities for non-citizens to vote. Refusing to make Voter Rolls available for inspection for compliance within Federal elections
Failure to pass the Save Act. 80 % of citizens from both political parties want it, yet our jerks in Congress refuse to do it.
There is NOTHING wrong with believing in America First!
7:03 - The democrat party now has numerous candidates running for office at all levels of government that have openly stating that their goal is to overthrow the government.
DeleteTo date, I know of only one democrat Senator (Fetterman) and one democrat US House member who are calling the Leftists out.
The voters need to focus. Creeping fascism is on the march. MAGA culture must be stopped. Democracy is being destroyed while we dither.
ReplyDeleteEvery vote could be your last.
8:43 - The fascism is on the Left. You have groups like Antifa and the DSA's Red Rabbits arming up and committing violence against those who oppose their political views.
DeleteThey, not MAGA, are the fascists.
Time to wake up. You've been lied to, and you're on the wrong side if you actually care.
The news media, including our Morning Call, has been covering over the attempted takeover of this nation by Democrat Socialists, and even worse groups. People MUST not just believe everything they see reprinted in the liberal-biased Morning Call.
DeleteTrump is now just an old white guy who still is voicing his silly lies about the 2020 election. I feel sorry for Mackenzie, or Mr. Congressman, as the doting Trump called him, since he didn’t know his name. Republican Congress will have to grow a spine with no help from Trump.
ReplyDeleteI do not expect any US President, regardless of party to know the name of each and every of one of our 535 members of Congress just on sight. Especially not a 2 termer.
DeleteWhy is Molovinsky on Allentown censoring comments?
Deleteanon@12:23 & 12:28: Trump came to Mack to endorse Mackenzie, that is why he should have remembered his name.
