In his bid to retake the White House, few states hold as much promise for Donald Trump as Michigan.
The former president has already won the state once and President Joe Biden, who reclaimed it for Democrats in 2020, is confronting vulnerabilities there as he seeks reelection. Trump’s campaign promises an aggressive play for Michigan as part of a robust swing-state strategy.
But, at least for now, those promises appear to be mostly talk. The Trump campaign and its partners at the Republican National Committee haven’t yet made significant general election investments in the state, according to Michigan Republican Party Chairman Pete Hoekstra. The national committee, he said, hasn’t transferred any money to the state party to help bolster its operations heading into the general election. There are no specific programs in place to court voters of color. And there’s no general election field staff in place.
Look at the Truth Social IPO. They already are
You think that money is going to down ballot races instead of directly into Trump’s pocket,??? Lol
They don’t give a shit about down ballot. Down ballot doesn’t matter when you control all three branches of government, imprison or kill all your enemies, and replace the entire federal beauracracy with toadies.
They don’t care about consequences because they do not intend to suffer them.
My man, what do you think “down ballot” means?
What part of this do you not understand? They don’t care about down ballot races because they intend to install a dictatorship. You think Putin gives a shit how much funding down ballot candidates get? Fuck no. They just install whoever they want or have sham elections.
You: They will control the House, Senate, and Presidency.
Also You: They don’t care about voting in House and Senate races.
Somehow Also You: What don’t you understand about my previous statement?
Down ballot is where the gerrymandering and state supreme courts work together to kill democracy.
Fear will keep the local systems in line.
