While ousted GOP Chair Liz Cheney runs to Fox News’ Chris Wallace for her interview (more on that later), her replacement Elise Stefanik appears with Maria Bartiromo to discuss the priorities of the House Republican Conference, and her perspective in the new role.
Stefanik defends the policies and results of the Trump administration and appears to understand the priorities of the MAGA base. Stefanik accepts that election integrity and voter confidence is the priority in advance of the 2022 mid-term election. Additionally, Chairwoman Stefanik supports the Arizona ballot audit taking place in Maricopa County and is prepared for the attacks against her and the GOP policy.
.
Think Stefanik has some promise. Hopefully not being sold another bill of goods.
Trust but verify at this point but defiantly an upgrade.
Personally, I’m done with mindless optimism. I was optimistic about Barr.
They are all salespeople for the money interest. The outcome will be determined by whether they fear Trump or the money more.
Yep, ‘hope makes a good breakfast, but a lousy supper’.
Time will tell. The jury is still out.
At the moment she is a breath of fresh air replacing the stink of a Deep State swamp creature.
I follow the Liberty Scores from Conservative Review and find them helpful as they show voting records.
Liz Cheney was TOXIC to say the least.
Elise Stefanik “Liberty Score” is right there with the establishment RINO Caucus. “F” 36 percent. Chip Roy who belatedly threw his hat in the ring “A” 100%
Talk the talk, but walk the walk.
Many will say Roy was anti-Trump but later found his wisdom.
Maybe Elise has too
I believe she’s a fraud. The same people who just elected Liz Cheney a few months ago are not about to elect anyone adverse to their interests. She was groomed, preselected, and a rushed through vote was held.
Agree!
Unfortunately, i would have to bet same. The decepticons are doing was decepticons do. They have to be removed from Office.
Another RINO imo . To learn that Paul Ryan was her mentor, raised my eyebrows.
https://www.nationalreview.com/2021/05/the-evolution-of-elise-stefanik/
I believe that time will show that she is a TRINO (TRUMP RINO).
I think she should be given the benefit of the doubt. I know that many here are anti Stefanik because of some of the votes she has made, but more recently she supported President Trump in the last impeachment effort, and she stood with him against accepting electoral votes or, as CNN put it: “supported a lawsuit that tried to get the Supreme Court to invalidate Joe Biden’s victory. On January 6, after Trump supporters stormed the Capitol, she voted to reject some of President Joe Biden’s electoral votes.”
In addition, I read this on the website of an ABC television station: “Stefanik has told colleagues she’d serve in the leadership job only through next year, according to a GOP lawmaker and an aide who spoke on condition of anonymity last week to discuss internal conversations. After that, she’d take the top GOP spot on the House Education and Labor Committee, which some consider a more powerful position because it can produce legislation on important issues.”
I agree, lets give her some time and see how she performs.
Respectfully, we are fools at this point to trust anyone who operates so much like Trey Gowdy, Lindsay Scam and the rest. I do NOT trust her. My vote is pour on the pressure, let her know we are watching like a hawk, but tell her we are open to her PROVING to us she will do something about fixing the vote and America. Because thus far she’s done squat to oppose the clear and obvious voter fraud. But I am OPEN to her doing something. But she has no time and needs to get to it right away.
After we’ve seen Trump move at light speed for us, move mountains for us, find loopholes to help us and all that we KNOW it can be done and that if she’s really working for us there will be a LOT of oppostion and she’ll need our help.
So no, I do not trust her. I want to see action basically immediately because we have no time.
MAKE NOISE about the deletion of data in the audit, House Republicans and do it EN MASSE to GET CHANGE or you are frauds.
All I can think of is Jeff Sessions
Such a disappointment he was. Jeff Sessions appeared a pretty decent guy once upon a time. Wonder what he was threatened with to make him play the fool as TRUMP’s AG.
Preach. Good one. I did not see that coming. He was like a warrior for the middle class, workers, border on and on while in the Senate. Back when Breitbart was legit they called Sessi0ns “the moral leader of the Dem party.”
Now Breitdrudge and Sessions are both big fat failures or whatever their deals are.
Correction: All you CHOOSE to think about. Question: Why make such a backward looking, fretful choice? Survival instincts and threat awareness kick in, when? Neo antoinette musings suggest a tragic disconnect. Wake up. See. Get up. Get busy. Help save yourself and #SaveAmerica?
You know that Trump supports Stefanik, right?
In any case, it isn’t up to us whether or not she holds this office. By all means keep an eye on what she does. Just don’t rely on what others say about her.
You want to see immediate action, which might not be possible. As Nigel Farage pointed out this week on Dave Rubin’s channel, it took him more than 20 years to succeed with Brexit.
Yep. Just another in that long line of GOPe puppet heads.
Stefanik is not a GOPe puppet. Watch tape of her destroying James Comey under questioning. Watch her expose the Mueller squad. Watch her defend Trump in both House impeachments and destroy Democrat witnesses under questioning in the 1st impeachment. No GOPe anti MAGA backer is going to do those things. Give her a chance.
GOPe doesn’t deserve any more “chances.”
We’ve been giving them “chances” for decades now – and look at where we are.
If you don’t see it, nothing anyone says can make you see it.
And that is exactly what this GOPe kabuki depends on.
https://redstate.com/stu-in-sd/2021/05/17/its-time-to-end-the-republican-kabuki-theater-n381233
Good advice, Falana
She is a red speck in the blue “gulag” … per Seneca and has withstood the leftist onslaught. I support her…
At the moment there are significant numbers of RINOs, maybe RINOS. once-upon-a-time RINOS, wish-I-wasn’t-RINOS who have realized that 1. Trump and the MAGA movement are the sole pathway to conservative and Republican electoral success and 2. Trump is offering a choice: join or face political oblivion.
There are also a lot of RINOs who fully realize that Trump was elected because he personified the will of a HUGE number of Americans, and not the other way around.
They WANT our backing, because they NEED us. But they don’t want US, and will never be MAGA.
we’ll see soon enough whether Elise Stefanik is faking it, or not.
All Republicans must align on the 2020 election theft. This coup has to be completely exposed or it’s over. Election integrity is without parallel.
Patrick:
I fear many people around here will lose their stomach for more election investigations when it dawns that the 2020 vote was not just shaved or tampered with: the results were wholly invented.
Voting machines have not proven to be superior in any way, except they allow the results to be pre-determined and then inserted at the right time. The original, unacceptable vote totals are gone with wind.
You are right, Patrick.
Gowdy fed Stefanik the comey question to burst her into the America Loving arms.
fed the question. fed it. fed it to have us embrace her. fed the question.
“sensitivity of the matter”
THIS question?
Because of the sensitivity of the investigation.
But Mr. Criminal (I mean Comey), aren’t the sensitive investigations the ones that are SUPPOSED TO BE briefed within each calendar quarter?
Whiteboard….. How do you know that Gowdy fed the question?
because thats how the show is done. actor gowdy presents actor stefanik to the audience of voters.
other wise we wouldnt 1) know who she is 2) love her fall catchign Comey in a situation (that never went anywhere)
HE knows, well because he knows. Dont you know?
Stefanik is a huge upgrade because she is willing to take a stand on behalf of PDJT and MAGA.
THAT is what is wonderful. THAT is why people should give her a chance.
Some people just prefer loons and loudmouths who know how to tickle their ears rather than leaders who get things done even when not agreeing with us 100%
Review her voting record.
She most definitely did not take a stand on MAGA when it counted.
She said MOSTLY all the right things,…and as conference chair, probably HAD to say the big lie; that the Republicans in Congress are “United”,….
NO! They are NOT. They are divided into 3 groups; the SMALL # that represent the base, which supports PDJT, and is convinced the 2020 election was stolen,…the ‘other side’ Conmunist globalists like Chaney, McConnell, McCarthy and Graham,….and some who keep their heads down, and yield to the second group.
Let the purge continue, remove ALL Decepticons from leadership positions, prior to eliminating them entirely.
Ditto that!
Yep, politically strike the shepherd(s), and the sheep will scatter.
Not to be trusted.
Stefanik:. for FUTURE reference, you would do well to start early NOW and BE PREPARED to eviscerate this Marxist embecilic social dissonance called critical race theory. burn it to the ground, dump the ashes into orbit, and ridicule EVERYONE who has ever mentioned the ridiculously unsound screed of CRT.
Stephanik: here, BELOW, you can digest the slow minded slow witted miserable concept of CRT. study up…this is what you will be facing. overcome it, by TEACHING the perils of this idiotic cult.
https://medium.com/a-universalist-in-an-identitarian-age/how-derrick-bell-the-antisemitic-father-of-critical-race-theory-created-neoliberal-3ddb10a142f3
She obviously was chosen by McCarthy and her message approved by him.. Chosen to show the balls he won’t show himself. Strange. All it does is make him look bad…very much like his mentor Ryan.
McCarthy has to go ASAP.
..so is turtle got to go ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’d love to read an article with Sundance’s take on who he thinks can be trusted and to what degree.
I doubt any of these politicians other than maybe Paul are truly acting on sincere principles, but there are levels.
Perhaps the most ‘loyal’ are all in on MAGA because they believe it is the only path forward. There’s opportunists beneath that, fair weather cowards, spies, saboteurs, and those like Cheney who’ve chosen to commit public seppuku as a display of fealty and post-office job application.
I wonder where he’d put the various relevant people.
I’m sure Sundance has his opinions and “gut instincts” about many RepubliCONs but because so many are very deceptive about their true allegiances they can turn on a dime andP play a different tune.
It’s tough to tell who is really behind the mask until they are caught in an action that contradicts their public statements.
I’d be reticent to list everyone who’s reliable versus who’s not because while they don’t change their spots, they’ve learned how to camouflage them.
DC two step is agnostic.
predicting A coin toss is easier
Trust but verify.
Thanks to President Reagan.
Saying the right thing is entirely different than doing the right thing. She’s better than Cheney but MAGA policies are not the bedrock her convictions are based on either given her voting record. Hopefully, she’s evolving in the right direction. Time will tell.
When Maria asked how important President Trump is to the Republican Party, Rep. Stefanik replied:”He is critical to the Party. He’s the leader of the Republican Party. Voters determine the leader of Republican Party and they continue to look to President Trump for his vision….”
This affirmation alone gives me reason to allow her the benefit of the doubt. She shows more force in her conviction than Luntz’s bff roomie.
She was against the wall and I think is a plant
Well, “We the People” have a job to do. All 74+ million. Some say 80 million.
As I firmly believe California DID go red (we have had our election results overturned nearly a dozen times by courts, they’d hardly stop with Dominion resources in their hands) I think it’s closer to 100 million.
As a messenger, she is pretty darn effective. She did a great job here.
Trust but verify.
This is where she appeared on the radar for me.
Taking it to scumbag, criminal Comey.
Another decepticon Republican destined to disappoint us with amazing acts of stupidity that seem to help the opposition agenda more than ours.
Perfection is every person’s INDIVIDUAL version & vision.
Yep. All one has to do is check out her voting record.
Cheney’s “derangement” was scripted to make this Rockefeller Republican (i.e. Leftist) appear acceptable to Trump supporters.
Worse – it appears to be working.
“Additionally, Chairwoman Stefanik supports the Arizona ballot audit taking place in Maricopa County and is prepared for the attacks against her and the GOP policy.”
I would say it’s refreshing to see her support for the audit, but on the other hand, it’s quite a shock more elected Republicans are not saying much about it.
I know the left will never admit to the fraud, but one would think even the most worthless RINO would claim they support honest elections in regard to the audit.
The rinos are likely terrified of the DC Stasi, since many of them are compromised with bribe $ from China(etc), and others participated or were complicit in the fraud. Just imo.
Just got an unsolicited fundraising email from Steve Scalise (GOPUSA) asking me to donate to Elise. No thank you. She hasn’t done anything for me.
When I hear her addressing all the fraud in all of the elections I’ll know she might be worth the effort President TRUMP put out for her.
When she starts holding the EAC, CISA, FBI, DOJ, DOD, NSA, the WH imposters, and all the swamp creatures accountable for their thefts and lies, maybe we’ll consider it. Until then, blow it out your ear.
Better yet, how about a real budget for a change. I’ve lost track of the last time there was one. I tho’t President TRUMP would fix that pronto, but no such luck. Next time shut them down until they cough it up. They have no problem shutting us down for over a year. Let’s see how long they can wait for their paychecks.
Budgets are due to be completed, voted on and passed no later than 31 Aug 2021 each year.
So tight, Two Laine
So right
Remember, a voting record is only what they vote on,and they try not to vote on anything because then you know their true colors, they are on record.
However, with MTG in charge of the House :), throwing sand in the gears, they are finding they all have to vote a lot more than they used to get away with.
TwoLaine, Yes, Roll Call votes are great. Thanks TO MTG!
IMO, this whole Cheney “affair” is just more GOP-scripted kabuki theater.
The GOP knows it can’t afford to alienate the tens of millions of GOP voters who still support Trump. So the GOP developed a plan to facilitate wooing them back to the fold.
And so – Cheney goes out and bashes Trump every chance she gets, to the point where many proclaim she’s “lost her mind”. At first, McCarthy supports her – but then it becomes “just too much” and Cheney must go.
Stefanik, who gained visibility by defending Trump during the “impeachments” (yet only voted between 50% and 68% with him, depending on which account you read) and was believed to be “acceptable” to Trump supporters, is selected (not elected) to replace Cheney.
Will Stefanik’s presence in this role change anything the GOP does going forward in any meaningful way, or change the GOPe’s view towards Trump and his supporters? Anyone who believes the answer is “yes” is simply naïve, and does not yet have enough years of experience observing how the GOP operates.
Rob, I agree the chance of any real change is not that great, but it’s better than doing nothing. I will reserve judgment, and as President Trump says, “we’ll see.”
‘reserving judgment’ and seeing how things go from behind a computer screen is pretty much what everyone from Trump to Gingrich to Jordan to Candace Owens have been asking us to stop doing and start finding the pockets of people willing to openly start forming a force that will confront and hold accountable through unified defunding and civil disobedience in education, worship, restaurant attendance and mask unveiling.
And in going down to help the people presently under attack on the border who are helpless with the imposter in the white house giving insurgency his approval and his subsidization.
Aren’t our elected Representatives expected to faithfully represent us? Don’t we loathe those who, once elected, vote differently? Stefanik represents a PURPLE NY district. Condemnation for her because of her faithful representation of the people she was elected to serve seems very, very odd. Perhaps focus on the fidelity of YOUR Representative? Perhaps focus on what you do each day to save yourself and all of us from the violent, profoundly evil DemOrcs who are totally focused on destroying us all? Stefanik has put herself on the frontlines. Have you? If not, when? Be who you want others to be. Inspire by your example. God bless Elise. God bless President Trump. God bless America and all MAGA Hearts.
Your argument is completely irrelevant. The question isn’t whether Stefanik represents the views of her district.
The issues at hand here are:
1) Is there any significance to the change from Cheney to Stefanik?
2) Is Stefanik the right person for this job?
Regarding issue 1: After seeing all that’s transpired the last four years, I believe it’s plain as day that this is just more meaningless kabuki designed to con the rank and file back to the fold. Those who don’t see this are the exact targets of the GOPe kabuki dance.
Regarding issue 2: The fact that Stefanik is from a purple district is itself another very strong reason why she isn’t the right person for this job.
Edit: Apparently, Stefanik’s district is no longer “purple.”
It was redistricted in 2013 to remove the city of Albany and its environs.
From Clinton in 1992 to Obama in 2012, the district went convincingly Democrat for President.
In 2016 & 2020, it went convincingly for Trump.
Thank you!
Rob, the argument is only completely irrelevant if you can answer every question by saying that you and everybody you know HAS put themselves on the front lines and done everything they can.
Your response was the sort of dismissive and disdainful rhetoric that liberals are famous for using.
FYI -I’ve done some checking since my comment below, and I believe you’re incorrect in saying that the district is purple.
Apparently, it was redistricted sometime in 2012 or 2013 to remove the “Capital District” (city of Albany and its environs) and some other smaller cities (Troy, Schenectady). It’s now almost completely rural.
From Clinton in 1992 to Obama in 2012, the district went convincingly Democrat for President.
In 2016 & 2020, it went convincingly for Trump.
The same is true in its House races. The Democrat routinely received several points above 50%, until Stefanik’s first race in 2014, where she received 53% of the vote vs. only 34% for the Democrat.
One more thing –
You’re incorrect in saying that an elected representative’s only job is to “faithfully represent” his or her district.
It was the hope of the founders of this nation that elected representatives would also exercise their common sense and good judgement, and consider the good of the nation as a whole.
But as the years go by, fewer and fewer people understand or believe this.
The founders however NEVER put the representation of the will of the people as SECONDARY, as that was the primary reason that we gave all to disconnect ourselves from King George.
Do not speak of what fewer and fewer people understand if you are going to attempt to rewrite what our founders held as the priority for representatives.
There are quite a few of us here who are rather more serious about history and substantiation than might make you comfortable to realize.
Regardless of the doubts about Stefanik, this IS the hard interrogation we have to ask ourselves before we are worthy to shoot down somebody else, you are right:
” Perhaps focus on what you do each day to save yourself and all of us from the violent, profoundly evil DemOrcs who are totally focused on destroying us all? Stefanik has put herself on the frontlines. Have you? If not, when? Be who you want others to be. Inspire by your example. God bless Elise. God bless President Trump. God bless America and all MAGA Hearts”
Yup. Same here, just more kabuki theater for the sheep.
(Caveat: I haven’t verified the voting record below. The source is a response to the current “Best” comment at: https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/05/14/elise-stefanik-americans-are-suffering-under-the-far-left-radical-socialist-policies-of-joe-biden-and-nancy-pelosi/)
Here’s a partial list I found of Stefanik’s voting record. As stated above, I haven’t verified it, but I’ve provided its source. If it’s accurate, it’s confirmation that this is just more meaningless GOPe kabuki designed to dupe people to continue voting GOP even when they should know better.
Voted against President Trump’s signature “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017”;
Voted repeatedly to undermine President Trump’s border security agenda:
Voted for HJ Res 46 to end Trump’s emergency declaration to fund the wall;
Voted for SJ Res 54 to override President Trump’s funding of the wall;
Co-sponsored permanent status for so-called “Dreamers” without any badly needed border security to stem the tide of the crisis;
Voted for HR 271 to condemn President Trump for the lawsuit fighting the unconstitutionality of ObamaCare;
Voted for an amendment to HR 2500 to override President Trump’s transgender policy in the military;
Voted initially for HR 5 – Equality Act – but subsequently flipped and voted against it;
Voted for HR 9, the Climate Action Now Act, to force America to remain in the Paris Climate Agreement;
Voted for HR 205 to ban drilling in the Eastern Gulf of Mexico;
Voted for HR 8015 – Delivering for America Act – playing into the Democrat Party’s conspiracy theory that President Trump was trying to destroy the U.S. Post Office.
Stefanik represents people in a PURPLE NY district. Her voting record shows she faithfully represented the people she was elected to serve. Thank you for highlighting Stefaniks fidelity. Great info. Is YOUR Representative as faithful to you as Stefanik is to her constituents?
See responses to your identical response above.
Thanks for the research.
She does not seem to be a liar. She asks great questions, talks straight at you but is obviously in place to stop the bleeding the GOP has suffered after betraying President Trump and the base. They are politicians. They can change their direction if they realize the way to power is through Trump and MAGA, not their old playbook. they may do it
Yep. She said it herself – the GOP can’t win without the Trump supporters.
Her job is to con the Trump supporters back to the fold; NOT to ensure that the GOP supports Trump.
Trump cheers polling showing his grip on GOP, doubts about legitimacy of Biden election
Excerpt:
CBS News released polling earlier in the day showing two-thirds of Republicans believe loyalty to Trump is important, while 67 percent believe Biden is not the legitimate winner of the 2020 election. Eighty percent of Republicans said they supported the House GOP’s removal of Liz Cheney from its leadership.

And,
Trump on GOP: ‘I’m not looking to have it be party of Trump, I’m looking to have a great country’
Excerpt:
The former president made the remarks during a lengthy interview with Rita Cosby on New York’s WABC Radio on Thursday night. Asked by Cosby whether or not the rising status of Trump-friendly U.S. Rep. Elise Stefanik means that the GOP is the “Republican Party of Trump,” Trump demurred.
“Well, look, I’m not looking to have it be the party of Trump, I’m looking to have a great country,” he said. “I’m looking to have a country that is run by people that know what they’re doing.”
https://justthenews.com/politics-policy/all-things-trump/trump-gop-im-not-looking-have-it-be-party-trump-im-looking-have
I don’t trust anyone the GOP puts in a leadership position but time will tell.
I weigh what they do at 90% and what they say at 10%. Let’s take a look at what Elise “RINO” Stefanik actually did:
Elise voted against President Trump’s Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, the signature piece of economic legislation that fired up the economy.
Elise co-sponsored a pathway for Dreamers and amnesty called the USA Act. Numbers USA gave her a 17% rating. She voted against President Trump’s border wall and also voted to terminate Trump’s emergency declaration to fund the wall.
Elise voted to oppose President Trump’s lawsuit to fight Obamacare. She voted to override President Trump’s ban on transgender troops. She voted for the far-left “Equality Act” that punishes faith-based organizations.
Elise voted for the radical Climate Action Now Act which would have crippled the American economy and forced President Trump to stay in the Paris Climate Accord.
Elise voted to override President Trump’s veto of the National Defense Authorization Act as recently as 2020.
Elise voted with Democrats against a Republican measure opposing the District of Columbia’s aggressive abortion law.
An argument can be made from her voting record that she’s really a radical leftist Democrat hiding in the Republican party so, of course, the RINOs love her.
It’s the old deceitful Potomac two-step. Replace one RINO with another. They’ve been lying to us for decades as they strip the country bare of jobs, capital investment, invention/innovation all sold off to foreign nations to line their pockets with thirty pieces of silver.
It is May 16th, 2021 and America’s decline continues unabated…
https://politicsthatwork.com/voting-record/Elise-Stefanik-412648
Rumor is Stefanik will resign after the 2022 election, when she takes chair of some important committee whose name no longer remains in memory.
May she be blessed and have her steps ordered by Our Lord.
Kevin McCarthy will be worse than Paulie.
He needs to go.
McCarthy & turtle got to hit doors !!!!!!!
Caleb, I doubt that he could be worse than Paul Ryan.
“Stefanik accepts that election integrity and voter confidence is the priority in advance of the 2022 mid-term election.”
I have no solution other than to vote only for republicans who primary existing republicans. Not a single existing republican is trustworthy. They are ALL owned or compromised by the deep state and so under control they have no voice, no outrage, no contempt for what is happening in our country. Every last one of them should be booted out.
There is zero point, in my view, in going to an election and voting for one of these politibots. None. They all were involved in all the efforts to boot out Trump and the stolen election, and they’ve all just say by and watched as the IC has gutted everything. They’ve stood by and done nothing during this stupid pandemic used to terrorize the country. They are useless.
The only sensible option is to take out the trash. Other than that, voting is an utter waste of time.
United States Chamber of Commerce…..that is who you can thank for financing the destruction of America……
Who hands out the bribes?/lobbying? Look no further…..but by all means….do look….
Absolutely.
On Feb 7 2021, Sundance wrote in a big bold headline:
PAY ATTENTION – Those Still Advocating Against a Third Party Need to Move to Acceptance Phase, GOP is NOT Recoverable
This statement was correct then, and it’s correct today.
Nothing about the GOPe has changed in the last three months.
Replacing Cheney with Stefanik is a fraud. The real leadership has remained the same, and will remain the same.
….hopefully SOMEONE will defend the republic….Elise has some promise…but I doubt she has the courage, the skill or most importantly….the will….and if she does the political maneuvering will make an air superiority fighter dogfight look like a carousel ride….God save the republic….
Research more. Doom less. Stefanik has repeatedly demonstrated Trump tier courage and tenacity. You’ll know this when you do your own, open minded research into this gutsy woman. No time to do your own research and thinking? Then perhaps read and accept President Trumps guidance so you can FOCUS on what YOU are doing each day to save yourself and all of us. Be who you want others to be. Inspire by your example. Empathy will be one of your rewards.
I’m not sure if she’s conservative, but at least she isn’t stupid enough to pick a fight with the most popular figure in America today, which is still Donald Trump. That’s worth something.
David, the stupidity index, not a bad way to measure.
I live in Elise’s district in far upstate NY. As a NY representative, she must continually walk the fine line of representing ALL her constituents which include a large percentage of wacky liberals. I have had the pleasure of working with her staff on resolving issues dealing with the VA on behalf of a couple of my clients and find them to be everything you want your local representative’s staff to be, helpful, attentive and resourceful. I have been proud of the way she has stood up to defend President Trump throughout the impeachments and after. Remember, her voting record must reflect the needs and wants of her district which is why she may not look 100% conservative on paper. You can only effect change when you STAY in office and now that she in leadership, I am encouraged that more change will be coming. Also remember her work on recruiting and getting more Republican women elected to Congress. That is a gamechanger that helped us to gain ground in 2020 and will likely help even more in 2022.
Interesting.
Do you know what’s behind the apparent “flip” in the Presidential voting pattern of your district?
By that I mean this:
Clinton 48%
Clinton 57%
Gore 56%
Kerry 55%
Obama 58%
Obama 52%
Trump 54%
Trump 54%
The average of all the democrats is 54% – exactly what Trump got each time.
In my neck of the woods, the party label doesn’t mean much. There are staunch conservatives running as Democrats in order to challenge Republicans that has been in office forever and may not represent their constituents. For President, people vote the person. So my take it is not a “flip” but that finally the republican party ran a candidate people wanted to vote for.
The contrast of who is obsessed with the Marxist narrative and who is pushing for America first could not be more clear – and they are both from the same party.
Republicans are mostly leftist puppets – but trump changed all that and now we have someone like Elise , Gaetz, Jordan , MTG , at least brave enough to push back – ultimately clearing the way for Trump , return of the Jedi
sometimes i feel like a lot of leadership on conservative side are just sham, i fail to trust them.

I believe the title of this could also read… New Republican Deflector Runs to Favorite Propaganda Outlet to Sell New Mantra.
I’m personally rating this chair change to the John Boehner / Paul Ryan GOP face saving and pandering manauver.
It’s nothing against Sundance, I’m just far out of buying the optimistic rainbows and unicorns analogies. Nothing that party ever does equals anything good for americans.
I’ll support Stefanik as long as she gives hell to the Democrats and whips the backsides of RINOs.
If that ends, so does my support.
Stefanik took Comey to the woodshed when he testified before Congress as to why he didn’t inform them about spying on the Trump campaign…it is on You Tube. Can’t send links from my tablet.
