Most "pundits" and "experts" that are regulars on Fox News are controlled opposition.
They are revealing themselves every day.
I’m no expert in PR but I see this possibly as he’s trying to swing CA liberals who hate Newsome.
Could also be blackmailed, threatened or was a sleeper all along.
He doesn't need to dway anyone. He would have a red majority in a fair election
I'd put money on blackmailed.
I heard X22 state that the GOP in CA was not backing him last night. I guess he caved in.
Yup go to 9 min mark “GOP will not endorse anyone to run against Newsome”
maybe the people that live there can govern themselves cause they have noone that cares about them or truth.
Good plan. Don't even TRY to win. That way you can't lose!!
Except that's what a loser is and does.

It's time for the other States to vote to secede Cali ourselves.
With the GOP on "our side" who needs democrats?
There is no GOP in California. They're all lefties.
The Republican party did not support Trump either and he ran anyways. You force their hand by running anyways. Guess this isn't the guy.
Weaksauce. None of us patriots would ever rationalize justifying/hiding FRAUD to win voters.
Looks like the timing was perfect then.
Yes, I'd like to hear what came after the "but" where he is cut off. Newsom's gotta go, no matter what.
Look in Kevin Kiley.
Exactly. Consider what he's trying to accomplish. The Presidency is more or less irrelevant especially when you consider that governors technically have more power than the President especially in California. If that's what he's got to go along with to win the Never Trump Cali Republicans, then so be it. This also distanced himself from any audits.
That said... I too tire of the integrity-less political games. This shit has got to end.
I rarely ever trust anyone who is allowed to exist on the national stage. Larry however, I trusted very much. Sad to see he's what I should have known he was. Controlled opposition.
Or … someone has blackmail info or is threatening his family forcing him to say that. Take nothing at face value anymore. NOTHING.
At this point you're a bitch if you hide behind that excuse. We are basically in uncharted territory and if you can't stand up to these tyrants then it's all for nothing. Let's hope this is just edited out of context. If we can bash Kemp for bitching out after his kids bf was melted by a DEW then we can bash Larry.
I'm gonna have to agree with this. If he is actually being blackmailed then it needs to be made public. If he said "look, I am being threatened but that will not stop me from speaking the truth, fuck you Trump won" there would be an army of Patriots at his house overnight. No cucks, we need Doom Slayers in office ready to fight the unending hordes of hell alone if that's what it takes.
Wow. So uncalled for! I thought this community was supportive views that have thoughts towards seeing the whole picture! I never said it was not ok to bash him and I agree it’s not good what he did but I also wanted to point out that if people just jump on a train without seeing the whole picture then we are no different than the other side.
I raised my kids to understand there are always 2 sides to every story so never believe the first side you hear without asking “what’s really going on”.
Kemp was different. He was always a RINO so no sympathy for him. Many thought Elder was different but I guess it’s good to find out NOW instead of after he is in office.
You really didn’t need to call me a bitch. That really pisses me off. I have been here a while and am a strong supporter of this group and start every morning here but if we are going to start infighting it will tear the group apart which is the objective of the DS.
Normal people CAN have civil conversations without resorting to name calling.
I trust no one who has a verified check mark and/or has received a book deal.
He's likely playing the field. Plus what difference does it make?
The clip is cut off at the word "but" which would imply an idea in contrast to the preceding thought. I wonder what was cut out.
Full Interview. . That question starts at 11:24 into the interview. It doesn't make it any better. He just points out the double standard between Hillary saying there was interference and Trump saying there's interference.
Annnnd he just committed political suicide. Guess he wasn't as based as we thought.
To be honest, I have a bad feeling that Gavin is going to squeak by. And that sucks, because then his inner peacock will really come out.
My mom asked me who I was going to vote for and in part because I have not followed it too closely, I said 'whoever can beat him. But in reality, I think things are too fragmented.
We need to implement Jesse Ventura's idea into all elections: have an option for "None of the above". Imagine all the disgraces who would lose to "None of the above" lol.
Every single republican currently in Washington should go on record and be asked this same question.
I guarantee 95% of them would answer like Larry.
This is the problem.
I think many of them dont actually believe trump lost. They exist in a different information tunnel than us.
If you didnt know about the chans, or alt-tech, if you get ALL your info from approved elite media, its possible to have no idea of the mountain of evidence that exists proving not only trump won, it was by a fucking landslide.
these people are stupid.
He is just another Faux New contributor [bitch] following orders.
The current referendum on all politicians is due to the corrupt election process. This is why we are where we are at. This isn’t about who has the best ideas, has not been for a long time. It’s about who controls our future, the uniparty or we the people.
Yeahhhhh, I heard rumors he won't get rid of vaxports or mask mandates either. Knew something was off about this guy. I want Steve Lodge to win; he seems based and actually says Trump won the election. Unfortunately, I don't think Lodge stands a chance because he's not popular like Elder.
WOW how fuckin pathetic!!! that state needs someones that loves our country and not evil.
My thoughts:
A politician seeking an office has to take positions that will maximize votes, even if that position offends some loyalists.
We are the minority
Unfortunately, a large majority are unaware of the voting irregularities, due to the MSM propaganda machine.
They are also intellectually lazy, but, deep down they are conservatives and will vote accordingly.
If Larry Elder endorses the continuing election audits, he will be labelled a conspiracy theorist and will lose that large majority .
This is very similar to Trump having to love the warp speed vaccine.
It is the politically expedient position... for now.
Correct. He has to win and winning more often than not means compromising your values.
Any time I see an about face of this magnitude, I have to wonder if there was a threat made against family or if the turn coat was caught on tape doing something evil or immoral.
Sad times as another one bites the dust, BUT WE ARE LEGION!! For every supposed patriot that falls, there will be 100 more to take his/her place.
I will wait and see about this. I can't believe he actually believes that but Newsom would have ran anything different in ads nonstop.
That's what I think too. It's not a good look, but I'll wait and see.
this is why the modern day GOP is so far gone from its "base" and why we see most politicians who follow the "America first" stance that Trump popularized are getting massive support. Thats what the majority of the country's citizens want.
Modern day GOP is way too concerned with optics -- optics that the democratic party/elites control with MSM and Big Tech.
I do think Elder is more 'America First' than not but he like most GOP feel like they have to play by the rules that the other party set ...and thats where the issue starts. You think the Dems would care at all if they flamed the otherside? Hell they had TWO sham impeachment trials based off of half truths, fabricated lies and misinformation they created.
His employers at Fox, and its TV show hosts already work for the CCP, so...
You see we get two steps forward and suddenly we are 30 steps behind. What the heck is happening to America??
Talk about shooting yourself in the foot
Couldn't he have said," I realize there is a lot of controversy surrounding the 2020 election, and that many are calling for audits in many states. Perhaps the best thing to do now is wait for the results. I will not comment on the validity of the election at this time." Maybe I'll run for gov!!
First, no has really, technically seen the evidence yet. Pence & Congress did certify the electoral votes…wonder if that is cast in stone. Second Larry looks scared to me. I wonder if he has a sex scandal in his personal history? As you all know our side has experienced extreme bias in the court of public opinion. We simply would no longer accept these smears with Trump. Larry’s got many red pilled noobs.
I think it’s political pandering.
My guess is a box of cash showed up at his house with a note on what to say. Larry is toast and we don't need someone like him.
I think it was a rope a dope. Larry has to appeal to the Commies out here that voted Xiden or he won’t win.
Controlled opposition. Take a pure MAGA stance and bail out. Leaves a diluted pool of RINOS, but Newsom will now win anyway.
Nooooooooooo
Might I suggest that Mr. Elder is sharper than your average Joe and is simply maneuvering through the pile of jackals who were shooting questions at him to try to provide sound bites for Gavin’s benefit? As a native Californian LE knows the lay-of-the-land with respect to attitudes and electability.
LE is not charged with providing the proof for the election fraud and I’m sure he’s well aware of what’s going on with the audits. He can’t drive any change from the outside of that corrupt, festering political machine that has infested Cali for decades. That said, once elected and the fraud proof gets to the mainstream, I’m quite sure LE would make sure CA moves in the right direction.
I can imagine him saying “Hey, I had thought the election was fair, even said so during these interviews.... but it’s been proven to be fraudulent and now we have to ensure this never happens again.” There were a good number of positive points in that interview as well, but it seems the focus is on a trigger-issue to dissuade the right from voting for him. This isn’t the first post decrying his election comment and it won’t be the last. Over the target and I’m sure the left will keep trying to diminish LE.
The guy is a solid conservative. You can dismiss him if you want, but what I heard from that tightrope walk of an interview with multiple hostile, corrupt marxist jackal (sic) ‘journalists’ trying to get sound bites to twist against him has made me sure he’s the right person for the governorship of the great state of California. Just my opinion.
Talk about shooting yourself in the foot
Well, I was wrong about larry elders. No matter, the fight to win continues.
RIP Larry Elder's poltical career.
Hate to say this but this is optics for all the brainwashed. He's pandering to those on the fence that would love to vote for the "black guy" but don't trust him yet. This is an olive branch to the middle of the road democrats in CA.
Larry has said on his show a number of times that there were serious voting issues with the election. He's backed up what is being done in AZ.
Maybe this is just so Gruesome can't whip up an ad with a soundbite making Larry look like a lunatic?
This is very disappointing! He should know better. Saw a great speech from a paster running for governor. There are so many to pick from
