Well, well, well. It’s certainly encouraging to see the Freepers beginning to support The Darnold and his Very Good Brain again.
Right?

‘What the hell was he thinking?’: Pennsylvania conservatives react to Trump’s support of Oz

RICHLAND, Pennsylvania — Jackie Kulback has a very detailed list of criteria that the county party she chairs, the Cambria County Republican Committee, requires to endorse candidates in next month’s U.S. Senate primary contest.
“There are some basic things,” she said, “such as, have they ever been to Cambria County and talked to the voters? Do their values line up with our values? Which is very important because we are a very pro-life county. Can they raise money? Can they do the job? And finally, can they actually get elected in a general election?”
Kulback, who has worked tirelessly over the past seven years to register new voters and make Republicans a local majority in this working-class western Pennsylvania county, never put much stock in the endorsement of former President Donald Trump as a deciding factor.
Kulback says that is not a rap on the former president, who remains deeply beloved in this county. Many “Trump” signs are still hanging up 18 months after he narrowly lost Pennsylvania to Joe Biden. “It is just that voters here have to vote for what is best for us and our state, and we have to make the decisions based on that,” she said.
It is a sentiment that was shared by voters and party chairs across the state hours after Trump unexpectedly endorsed Mehmet Oz, the celebrity heart surgeon better known as Dr. Oz, in the race here for the Republican Senate nomination.
It was a decision that left many dedicated Trump supporters perplexed. Why did he choose someone who had not resonated with conservatives in such a key state on the Senate map? Who whispered in his ear that this was a good idea?

“Keep him if he does a good job, but look for somebody else if he does a bad job.In six years?
You don’t wait for perfection to come to you. That’s how he ran his administration.”
So how’d that work out for Trump?

You left this video out of Dr.Oz promoting the physical, emotional, and spiritual mutilation of our children. Keep your head buried in the sand but the disdain for Trump is growing by the second.

He’s easily flattered and he seems to take advice from others without vetting it. His hiring record as president was atrocious. And endorsing a senator….well, it takes six years to fix that mistake.
