It needs to be noted that Trump low approval was due mainly to a relentless assault by dems/media pushing a False Narrative that Trump was controlled by Russia. This was a made-up story that was used to vilify Trump, his family & entire MAGA movement. Now as the story unfolds in Court, it is being dismantled lie by lie. Without this lie by Hillary, who knows how high Trump approval rate would have been. Booming economy, lower taxes, clamp down on illegals, better trade deals. low Unemployment, No new wars

"Let’s just hope the GOP focuses less on score-settling and more on making sure the Bill of Rights hasn’t been entirely trashed by the end of Uncle Joe’s one and only term."

No way! Punishing all these people for what they did over the past 2+ years is the way to make sure The Constitution isn't trashed.

I don't know, personally I have a score to settle with Fauci. And I'd like to see a big focus on "how can the lockdowns and the rest of the unjustified panic-reaction of the last two years be prevented from EVER happing again?". I just don't expect much.

No, i think we are LONG overdue for a score settling. That’s all the dems understand. Believe me, I will be dancing in the streets when we get some vengeance.

This is OBAMAS people running the show with some Bernie folks sprinkled in there. Joe was the Trojan horse and we all know it. Illegals being brought in as the new voting base for the left. 20+ million very soon as they know they cannot perpetuate the ballot fraud they used last election. We are in very perilous times folks.

Actually, making sure the Bill of Rights isn't trashed requires some score settling. That tends to discourage future trashing.

He's done so much to destroy this country, so it's no surprise. At least people are starting to realize. And tomorrow we'll be inching closer to the one-world agenda when our sovereignty goes even more out the window.

what I want to know is how does an administration who's every decision is DESIGNED to weaken us as a nation is still being reported as blunders and not as the obvious attack on our nation's sovereignty that it is.

Isn't there some law enforcement group that should be making charges? Do you need to have an actual piece of paper that says 'this is how I will destroy America' when you have the actions and results?

Some scores need to be settled.

People need to be impeached/removed over the jab mandates. Especially for our troops. As far as I'm concerned, that was an act of war.

With all due respect, Alex (and I do respect you for your journalistic integrity on the shots), the American people DESERVE a reckoning. You may call is score-settling, but if we don't see actual jail time for the corruption and capture of every federal agency, we cannot survive as a United States of America. It's not possible. We must see the Constitution, as well as the Bill of Rights returned to their rightful place as our cornerstones.

The Trump low-approval was manipulated by the media to make Americans think he did something nefarious. 80,000 people don’t show up at rallies after 2020 to support a low approval former president. Censorship works.

I can’t be the only one that thinks there is no way the globalist powers that be, the ones who’ve made incredible progress in two years, the ones who moved heaven and earth to get rid of trump, the same Dems who are obsessed with moving their agenda forward no matter the cost, are just going to let the red wave happen. There’s no way, I can’t even imagine what they have planned for us to influence the election.

Biden renewed his emergency powers exactly at the moment covid was suddenly no longer news - as Ukraine took center stage. Leana Wen did a one eighty at the same time and then just went away. Meanwhile we now know that under cover of darkness Biden was busy planning turning emergency powers over to the WHO - which is happening right now May 22. Only Fox has even mentioned it. Questioning whether there will even be an election this fall is a logical question as the new pandemic threats are being put out now to build back the fear that had finally abated… ie we are primed for all the new draconian measures that will be imposed when the time is just right. I can’t even believe I’m writing this crazy stuff! The logic of what happened these last two years seems so clear if you have listened to McCullough Malone Breggins RFKJr etc. With all the lying and power mongering and disastrous actions against this country by whomever is behind the curtain (telling this shell of a person who somehow got elected to get him out of a basement what to say and do these last two years) it’s not that big a leap to suggest the US is being sold out to the maniacs at the World Economic Forum. Hope hope hope I’m totally wrong…..Alex please prove me wrong at your earliest convenience.

Some punishment must be released or there is no true justice. Fauci / Walensky should at a very minimum be terminated (with extreme prejudice for real justice) and the DOJ brought to heel for a wide variety of bad behaviors. FBI reform, CIA reeled back in and Foreign Policy oversight brought into bright light. Then we get to Big Pharma and that criminal conspiracy. Also the Durham investigations and trials should ramp up hard with HRC perp walked into prison. Stop the proxy war with Russia and mend fences or die trying. Lastly, stop printing money we don't have to feed the fools that don't want to work. That's all a good start. I'll think of more later.

There should not be another Democrat elected for two generations. When you look at the direction they've taken this country, both in their policies, and with their working partners in the media and academia, we've gone from a shining City on a Hill to country where our most beautiful city has to staff a team to collect human feces from it's streets while handing out needles. Meanwhile, across the country, we simply ignore the numbers of people being shot, raped, robbed, attacked, as Ho-Hum daily occurrences. These things do not happen in a vacuum. You have to work at it to move from a shining City on a Hill to the level we've fallen, with thousands trying to leave Chicago, LA, New York, Portland, Seattle, San Francisco, et. al., and millions more walking in freely on our Southern border.

It'll take at least two generations to clean out the Democratic Party. There should not be another elected for that length of time or until they get some sense of reality back- whichever comes first.

As for the Republicans- I con't count on much from them as they have been a part of some- not all, but some- of our decline (see: Our Border). But at least the right has been trying to clean out the Republican Party. It is taking time, but it's happening. As for 'score settling', I agree there is more important work to be done. That said, there are criminals, outright liars, and people who have worked hard at destroying the very fabric of our country still sitting in Congress, the FBI, State Department and other corners of our Government. What is Adam Schiff still doing in Congress, let alone leading any Congressional committees? I say we start with Mr. Schiff and his Russia Collusion conspiracy. There is some trash that still needs to be taken out of Congress before we can move forward.

To have the lowest % ever considering the majority of the media propaganda on his side is the astonishing aspect. The majority of lowered Trump % was driven down by that very same fake news media. Trumps # was low not because of what he had done, but by the effectiveness of the media to get people to hate him based on emotion and not policy. When you look at what the puppet has done to America in just 16 months compared to Trump that is the stark contrast and opposite ends of the spectrum

Score settling is always a factor, but usually minor. Political combat is predominantly strategic, always an effort to position your side for greater power. How that power is used, and how the strategies are exercised, always depends on how well the public controls their government. We've seen the results of public apathy. Now the question is whether we've learned anything from it. Get involved in your politics, local and national, or suffer the politics of others who do.

I strongly believe that if the Dems hold the majority after the midterm, we will see a return of forced vaccination, mask mandates, people sitting at home working or being paid not to work, and more government spending in the name of health or rescue.

It’s a possibility that in the name of a new Covid variant or Monkeypox, the voting laws will be changed again by lawsuits at the last minute, and a return of mass, mail in and drop off box voting, like what was done in 2020. The media will support it and call people who are against it as wanting Grandma to die, or if that doesn’t work, then racist.

If the Dems hold power, they will see this as a sign that people desire their control, thus their medical tyranny, and other social programs and ideology. One may not be a huge fan of the Republicans; there a a handful of really good ones, but there is a choice to be made.

Over two years in, everyday, I see young people walking outdoors wearing a mask, and masking their young children too. These are the people that I think of as Biden’s Soldiers. They would give our civil liberties away on a silver platter to the government without resistance.

If Trump wasn’t cheated out of the presidency our country would be in way better shape. We wouldn’t be worrying that Biden is about to sign away our sovereignty, there would be no war or proxy war with Russia, he would’ve handled the Afghanistan withdrawal better, the illegal invasion at the border, shipping crisis, food shortages, there would have been no vaccine mandates, and ppl wouldn’t have lost their jobs, and so much more. Everything the Dems have done is an affront to the citizens. They want the NWO and everything they’ve done in the last year and a half is a reflection of that ideology. Keep creating crises and it will happen. Now they want to give us all monkeypox so we can take another vaccine just in time for the WHO pandemic treaty to take effect.

Wow. Pretty shocked that all the comments here display a belief that “parties” matter in this country, and that elections are somehow legit. Incredible. Listen Joe Biden is the Boris Yeltsin of the USA and it was a deliberate act on the part of the folks who actually run the world. The US is being castrated. On purpose. Using Biden as the puncture wound to start the leak and drain it dry. Damn I really thought commenters here would be a little more savvy than arguing about Trump and “parties.” This is 2022.

Agree with the 1 term. I cannot believe he can complete this term. For anybody who has witnessed this level of dementia, people fade fast. The meds get less and less effective, until they have no effect at all. Remember, he nearly has 3 years left. As far as elections, I live in Nevada and already received a primary mail-in ballot, despite being unaffiliated. That tells me they're going to cheat more on this election. Because it is midterm, they will not get away with it in red states, but the blue states will continue to send democrats to DC. Alex, I don't think democrats take lessons from anything, except how to effectively cheat in elections.

The Bill of Rights has been repeatedly trashed by the DEMs. Each and every one of these violations of our basic rights must be addressed when the GOP takes power. It is the only way the GOP can make sure that our rights aren't violated again. This isn't score settling. It's only common sense. If there are no consequences for criminal actions the criminals will not be deterred but emboldened.

Without a doubt, Biden is the worst U.S. president in my lifetime (I'm in my 60s). He makes the bumbling, bungling Jimmy Carter look like a genius by comparison. Everything Biden touches turns to you-know-what. Baby formula shortages, soaring gasoline and diesel prices, soaring inflation, $80 billion in military equipment left behind in Afghanistan, millions of illegals pouring across our border (the only border Biden seems interested in defending is Ukraine's) -- and that's just a partial list. Under Biden, our liberties guaranteed by the Constitution have been attacked like never before in my lifetime. SAVE AMERICA AND MAKE IT GREAT AGAIN.

the 2022 election must be about solutions. If the Republicans focus only on the many negatives in the last 18 months our country is screwed. Biden's administration is incompetent and their woke policies have proven disastrous. Add to that their attempts to compromise our constitutional protections and the door is wide open for sensible alternatives. The left somehow believes people of color are stupid. This racism of low expectations is backfiring, but winning an election is but a first step. Biden and Powell's policies may take years of economic pain to unwind. Allowing someone like Tony Fauci to control America's health care to the benefit of Big Pharma may be impossible to reverse. The military-industrial cabal has control of much of both parties. Trump, in spite of his own self-defeating personality, started to face some of these issues. The entrenched interests couldn't allow that. Remember that the rhino Republican Congress did not support him for much of his term. Big challenges that must be addressed.

People were so desperate to rid the country of the embarrassment of Trump and all the negativity he spread that unfortunately this is the result. Maybe somewhere, somehow, credible political candidates will come forward in each party and efforts will be made to return the Country into one which we can all respect and love once again. Role models for the world. Massive change is needed from my vantage point.

I take just a slightly different approach to what the Republicans should do than Alex suggests.

As always we should INSIST that the Bill of Rights is upheld and if possible strengthened. However, on behalf of the American public that has been seriously wronged by the last 2 years of Bidenism, there are some scores to settle (along with maintaining our Rights) and the first score that needs settling is the impeachment and removal from office of both Joe Biden AND Kamala Harris! These 2 individuals are absolutely the worst individuals a country can place into elected office and I can think of no 2 others can that match them. Biden flatly ignored the law and broke it regarding border security/control and immigration. Harris, tasked by her boss Joe Biden, to "Czar" and oversee/fix the situation, did nothing. I mean absolutely nothing and should be removed for negligence because the situation at the border has continued to deteriorate till this very day.

I'll even go as far as placing a litmus test for the current crop of Republicans for them to be considered Republicans - "If you're not on board with impeaching and removed Biden/Harris and a fully unwavering support of the 2A, then you're part of the problem and we'll replace YOU TOO in the GOP Primaries and this course of action is WELL UNDERWAY!
