Too bad there’s no data to support it because 1000 certainly isn’t it.

Nope, you did that by making a ridiculous claim about the core of the GOP, having no proof to it, and making pages of deflection and strawman arguments versus admitting you have no proof.
I said, in exactly one post, that White Nationalists make up a significant part of the core GOP. And by that, I meant people who reliably vote for Republican candidates.

I brought numbers, and polling results, and examples. You said they weren't good enough not 'precise and hard' enough.

So I asked you for your definition of a 'precise and hard' number - and you couldn't even answer that.

This thread has devolved to a game of gotcha. Erieguy is asking me to provide a number, but keeps rejecting everything that I bring, and doing so deflects from the fact that the Republican governor and US senate candidates in Pennsylvania are doing so poorly, the Erieguy can't even defend them anymore.

The number you brought is 1000. I asked you how many members of the GOP core there are and you still haven’t answered that.

There’s no game of gotcha by me. You continue to deflect from proof to your claim as 1000 certainly doesn’t represent the majority of the core of the GOP being white nationalists, unless you’ve finally found proof otherwise?

Bingo

Why do you continue to lie?

The number I brought was "at least 1000", as it was roughly the number of votes by which Oz beat his second place opponent in the Republican primary election. And I said it facetiously...I thought that you would have been intelligent enough to realize that.

I then threw out examples to support my contention, but you simply kept harping on and on about needing a 'precise and hard' number. It allows you to deflect from the subject of the post, doesn't it?

This is what it looks like when Erieguy fails, he gets caught in an infinite loop.

I’m not the one lying. You said at least 1000 and then you said 1000.

So now after so many pages of deflecting and strawman arguments you’re saying you were being facetious, lol.

Except you refuse to answer how many people represent the core of the GOP.

Hilarious accusation when you now say you were being facetious, because you know you have no proof to your claim.

If I may:

Pennsylvania has 8,719,873 voters, of which 46.2% are Democrats, 39.2% are Republicans and 14.7% are registered independents.

Biden won with 51.3% of the vote while Trump lost by 46.9%.

If any of that helps you guys.

The only numbers necessary to reply with are Fetterman +13, Shapiro +11. That pretty much says it all.

Bingo…It certainly does as I’ve said many times PA is a Dem state that relates to a freeloading slob who’s parents supported him most all his life, defends and enables criminals, supports shutting it down and living in fear, etc… Such standards are a reason folks have left in droves.

We only spend 5-7 months in PA these days and that’s because of friends and mostly family, depending on PA weather. We spend the rest of the time in DeSantisLand. What a refreshing state he runs.
