Cal Thomas makes the mistake Republicans have fallen for time and time again: "Just be nicer." Be nicer when Democrats slander you and their press footsoldiers spread it everywhere like the manure it is.

Be nicer when the press covers up your opponent's crimes and misdeeds.

Be nicer when they accuse you of treason.

Be nicer when they impeach you.

Be nicer, and you'll get the fence sitters.

WRONG. WRONG. And WRONG.

Trump is loved and supported by tens of millions of Americans who've played by the rules and been shite on.

And who've watched as Republican after Republican has promised courage but delivered capitulation, and called it "bipartisanship."

WE get sold down the river, while THEY get plaudits from Democrats for being "statesmen" - after they're dead, of course.

No one with a brain watching this election aftermath can possibly think that there will ever be a free or fair election again.

Even if another popular GOP candidate comes along, and gets 90M votes, Democrats will manufacture 91M. And the courts will do nothing. That much is clear.

And I like Mike Pence. But he doesn't strike me as a man with thick enough skin to endure what the Democrat/media/big tech/FBI/CIA/DOJ industrial cheat machine would throw at him. Not to mention the hysterical anti-Christian howlers.
