Rand must be so much fun at parties. No wonder his neighbor punched him.

I don’t think so. But if it did, democrats would not destroy the country in defense of their fragile egos. In Colorado, MAGA (R-crazy)the death threats are pouring in.
The question you have to ask, do I support law and order or do I support the violent mob?
If you’re thinking the mob sounds good, just wait. They will turn on you too. They eat their own.

I look at the choices in our primary as 1) who will make the best governor and fight for GOP principles, and 2) who will make the strongest candidate.

As to being the best governor, I rely on my experience as a political appointee inside the Jim Martin administration, and my observations of the Jim Holshouser and McCrory administrations. There are two important aspects to look at, 1) who will stand up for principles, and 2) who has the ability to staff an administration with solid people who will carry out the policies and principles of the administration.

As to staffing a government office, Graham is an unknown quantity as he has no record on that. Folwell has an excellent record of getting the right people on his staff to get things done on his agenda, while Robinson has a very poor record on that. Folwell is the very clear choice on this criteria.

As far as promoting solid GOP policy in government, Graham has no record on this as he has never been in office, but has pushed some very non-Republican policy as a private citizen. Folwell has a strong record of taking the bull by the horns, pushing hard, not being afraid of the special interests and getting things done on GOP policy. Robinson started off great with his crusade against woke curriculums in the schools, but after getting himself a lot of publicity on that, dropped the ball. He has not picked up the ball on ANY key policy issue since. Folwell, again, is head and shoulders ahead of the others on this criteria.

When it comes to electability, both Folwell and Robinson have good track records, but Folwell has won consistently, and so far Robinson only once. Graham has no track record. Graham pissing off the farmers means he has the least shot at election. I have some concerns about skeletons rattling around in Robinson's closet which have been aired on the Daily Haymaker and the Democrats are probably holding in reserve if he is the nominee.

Everything considered, to me, Folwell is the clear choice.

The Democrats' War on Womens Sports is a War on Women. Men who claim to be women to compete in womens sports are cheaters and the Biden far left ideologues prefer them to the rights of REAL women.

Even some of the old Obama hands are seeing that Biden has gone crazy with his open borders policies. And the American people are waking up to the threat. Over 2/3rds supporting deportation is a good sign. President Trump has pledged to be our "deporter in chief" when he is back in the Oval Office.

Trying to jail your main political opponent is something dictators do, as is trying to throw them off the ballot. Putin, for example has done both. Biden is the US politician making the moves that dictators make while falsely claiming Trump is trying to do so. Biden is America's Putin and he is trying to make Trump America's Navalny.

Statistically, a lot more whites are killed by police than non-whites. A study by a Harvard professor proved that and he was attacked and almost thrown off the faculty by Harvard's DEI-obseessed plagarist (and pro-Hamas) president Gay. And, yes you are a racist, Bigot Bob, and it is laughable when you suggest others are.
