Trump Tells Republicans Not to Vote in 2022 or 2024

In a new statement that he would have posted on Twitter himself if his account was not permanently suspended for inciting violence, former President Donald Trump urged his supporters not to vote in the two upcoming elections if the Republican Party does not “solve” the supposed voter fraud that he has falsely claimed precipitated his loss to President Joe Biden.

“If we don’t solve the Presidential Election Fraud of 2020 (which we have thoroughly and conclusively documented), Republicans will not be voting in ’22 or ’24,” Trump declared. “It is the single most important thing for Republicans to do.”

After prominent Trump supporters similarly told Georgia Republicans to sit out the two runoffs in that state late last year, calling it “another rigged election,” voters ended up giving Democrats control of the Senate.

      I thought he might threaten to pull shit like this before the 2022 elections - as a reminder to the GOP that he's in control and they must always do exactly what he wants. And if they didn't - he'd go nuclear.

      It's crazy but it's possible Trump could be the dem savior in 2022.

        Trump destroyed an entire football league, the USFL, because NFL owners thought Trump was too crass and slimey to own a NFL franchise.

        He bullied everyone in the USFL to do everything in their power to either be like the NFL or better which burnt out all the talent in the organization. Near the end the teams were made up of criminals, college football dropouts, and 40 year olds.
