@Scaramucci First congradulations on calling the bitcion bottom of CNBC
Second a winning ticket in 2028 could be Tom Tillis with either Cassidy Massie or Liz Cheney, running as Democrats. You might explore this with Elon Musk, Mark Cuban or Jeff Bezos?

@StevenMerrima16 @RepThomasMassie You got that right Thx

@RepThomasMassie Dear Representative Massie,

I write to you as someone who has followed your career with admiration and who believes your voice in Congress is worth fighting to preserve. Tonight's primary result, while disappointing, may not be the end of your story — if you are willing to consider an unconventional path.

The numbers suggest you could win your seat back by running as a Democrat in 2026. Here is the analysis:

In 2024, running uncontested, you received 278,386 votes. The threshold to win the general election in KY-04 is approximately 150,000 votes. Kamala Harris — arguably the weakest Democratic presidential candidate in a generation — still received an estimated 93,000 to 97,000 votes in your district. That is your Democratic floor.

If you ran as a Democrat and captured 95% of those Harris voters (~88,000) plus just 20% of your own 2024 Republican supporters (~57,000), you would clear 145,000 votes — effectively enough to win. At 50% of your 2024 total combined with a strong Democratic showing, the margin becomes comfortable.

The strategic logic is straightforward: after 12 years of service, you have built a deeply personal following that transcends party labels. Your record — opposing foreign adventurism, defending civil liberties, fighting surveillance overreach, demanding fiscal accountability — resonates across ideological lines in ways that few members of Congress can claim. You have been praised by progressives and libertarians alike, and condemned by the establishment of both parties. That is a rare political asset.

Your opponent in November will be Ed Gallrein, a Trump loyalist with no legislative record. The contrast could not be sharper: 12 years of principled independence versus unconditional deference to whoever sits in the White House.

The question is simply this: how many of the Republicans who voted for you personally — not for the party, but for you — would follow you across party lines when the alternative is a candidate you know to be a rubber stamp?

History suggests the answer is: enough.

I recognize this path requires an extraordinary act of political courage. But you have never lacked for that. You have voted alone when you believed you were right. You have stood against your own president, your own speaker, and your own party's leadership when principle demanded it. Running as a Democrat in a red district would be one more act of defiance — and this time, the math is on your side.

Respectfully submitted,

@Milajoy Another false post. The actual paper ballots exist and have been counted and recounted. The 17,000 are missing ballot images not the ballots themselves. Save yourself from more false posts by using SuperGrok as a fact checker.
