Radio host Larry Elder has emerged as the front-runner among Republican voters in the Gavin Newsom recall election, but he apparently recently committed an act of sacrilege for some prominent Donald Trump fans.
During an interview with the Sacramento Bee's editorial board, Elder said Joe Biden won the 2020 presidential election "fairly and squarely" — a position at odds with former President Donald Trump and many of his supporters, who still repeat a multitude of debunked claims that widespread fraud altered the result of the election. Biden won the popular vote by more than 7 million votes and the Electoral College by a solid majority of 306 electoral votes to Trump's 232.
Find someone else!!! Why is the bottom scum of the barrel always nominated?
Still he didn't need to say it. He could have said many other things than that. The evidence we already have is 100% convincing to me that there was enough rampant voter fraud to change the outcome of the election.
I don't understand why it would be political suicide to have said something like 'There is always some fraud in national elections, the question is how much and how many. I think we need to always be vigilant when it comes to making sure every citizen's votes counts as they intended'
Would that have lost him the election?
Lets not be so quick to bite on a 5second sound byte when Larry spent the next 5min telling us how FOS the Dems were.
Since when did we get that shortsighted that we jump to conclusions THAT fast.
I have a hard time with those here and T_W that jump all over the very few allies we have over the slightest thing they disagree with. This is an uphill battle and some want to cast out allies for the slightest.
Yet there are attacks here on Elder, DeSantis, Paul, Cruz, Hawley. That's about all we have right now.
Be real, Elder is running to unseat a long standing blue state. Even if we believe it is probably a red state. That means he is going against election fraud and a well organized state machine. He has a governor on recall that has pissed off many. Why should Elder shoot his own foot by taking the hardline of 2020 fraud? Scare off all on the fence that are fed up with gavin but have not been shown yet how deep the corruption goes?
He is playing it right.
Every turn that I have seen the man speak, he has been spot on with what ails our nation. And he doesn't take the easy route, because he directly addressess what lies are being told to the people that look like him, and why those lies are ruining their community and thus the whole nation.
This is an enemy tactic to demoralize.
Did you watch the interview? He pounded them with 4 years of Hillary-Russia-collusion hoax. He’s got to reach normies, rattle their cognitive dissonance:

Larry is campaigning for Governor not campaigning for full forensic audits -- he's not opposing those, is he?
Joe Biden won the election fraudulently and crookedly.
He did not say Biden won fairly and squarely, he said that he " believed " Biden won Fairly and squarely. This is not a trivial choice of words but puts his affirmation in the realm of opinions that can be changed when facts are revealed in the future. Perspective is very important. He chose his words carefully imo.
its long past time folks STOP CHOOSING their words and speak freely
Go easy on him. He is in the full leftist state of CA. If he doesn’t sound like a moderate, he won’t stand a chance.
Context matters. It's better to do the full quote and understand what was actually going on before rushing to judgement.
Whatever he needs to do to get elected!!
File this under "Top 10 ways to lose an election?"
Trump has said things that I didn’t appreciate at the time. Like “take the Vax if you want.” But by god, I’ll support that man till I have two feet in the dirt. Plus he’s at 23% in the polls.
