Ed Gillespie worked hard but did not embrace me or what I stand for. Don’t forget, Republicans won 4 out of 4 House seats, and with the economy doing record numbers, we will continue to win, even bigger than before!

LOL!!!

This was the most likely Trump response to a Gillespie loss, in my opinion. Or, for that matter, any loss.

Well, Trump is beyond radioactive in the state of Virginia, which is VERY pro-insider, pro-lobbyist, pro-bureaucrat, pro-deep state, etc. and totally relies on big government growth, so Trumpism obviously won't win in Virginia. Still shocked to see radical alt-left candidates like that DSA-endorsed Lee Carter win, and by double digits. Scary.

Taylor's gonna be fine. I think he realizes he cant be asleep at the wheel.

Stuff like this, too:

Frankly, I think if he loses, 50+ other R's are too.
