Tuesday’s primary election results were generally bad for President Trump and America First patriots. Two of his most important endorsements failed miserably, underperforming even compared to their dismal poll numbers. David Perdue and Jody Hice were trounced by voter-fraud-deniers Brian Kemp and Brad Raffensperger in Georgia. This established a string of losses for Trump-endorsed candidates taking on GOP Establishment incumbents.
According to WSJ:
In Georgia on Tuesday night, Gov. Brian Kemp decisively won his primary against the former president’s candidate, former Sen. David Perdue. Last week in Idaho, Mr. Trump’s candidate, Lt. Gov. Janice McGeachin, lost her challenge to Gov. Brad Little. A week before that, Charles Herbster, the Trump-backed businessman who ran for governor in Nebraska and faced allegations of groping women, lost to University of Nebraska official Jim Pillen. Mr. Herbster denied the allegations; Mr. Trump told voters to overlook them.
Georgia’s governor race was perhaps the marquee primary test given it was the center of the president’s false 2020 election fraud claims that he says will boost turnout for Republicans this fall. He repeatedly attacked Mr. Kemp, calling him weak for not trying to overturn President Biden’s win there.
Does this mean Trump has lost his touch or, worse yet, his support? Not at all. It means the two things I’ve been saying since before the first primary this year are still quite true, even for Trump. First, it’s always going to be tough to beat an incumbent who doesn’t have a major scandal attached to them because many if not most U.S. voters like to go with what they know during primaries. It’s human nature to assume that an incumbent who has proven they can beat Democrats will get the lion’s share of low-information votes during primaries.
Second, and I’ll continue to say this despite most disagreeing with me, is my belief that endorsements are mostly worthless. Are dedicated Trump fans going to take his endorsement into account? Sure. But your standard mid- to high-information voter is going to be the one who’s even aware of Trump’s or anyone’s endorsement, and those voters are more likely to do the research to make their own decisions.
Endorsements are mostly ineffective. Rallies and other appearances for the sake of fundraising are better. But both are trumped by the quality of the campaign. Money and great endorsements cannot make a bad campaign or a bad candidate win. Perdue was a horrible candidate throughout, hitting the wrong notes at the wrong times and often coming across as whiny rather than winning.
As for Hice, did he even run a campaign? I like him as a Congressman, but he wasn’t out there hammering Raffensperger nearly as hard as he should have been. He had a prime opportunity to make national news and drive massive fundraising if he had gone after Raffensperger’s demonstrable corruption. Instead, he ran the mediocre campaign that’s fine for a congressional district but not nearly enough for a statewide election.
The real narrative here isn’t just Trump. The bigger narrative that the Republican Establishment and their cronies in corporate media will play on is the combination of “MAGA Republicans” and voter fraud losing weight in the eyes of primary voters. This may or may not be true; we tend to see things in light of what’s present in the America First base but often miss what Average Joe Republican is thinking. Have they been so gaslighted by Fox News and the like to the point they think voter fraud didn’t happen and MAGA is dead and gone?
I don’t know the answer to that question, but it really isn’t important to know because our path forward remains the same. The America First movement must get louder in spite of corporate media propaganda. Voter fraud must remain an issue until culprits are held responsible. Most importantly, RINOs must be exposed. We need to work harder at that now more than ever. America hangs in the balance and continued control by the Uniparty is untenable.
One final note about Trump’s influence in the party. As improbable as it was to imagine just a year ago, there are plenty of rumblings about active people within the America First movement having second thoughts about him. He hasn’t helped himself by continuing to this day to promote the jabs. I’m not sure where the disconnect is or why he feels it’s beneficial to mention them at most events, but it’s turning MAGA people away. Then, there’s the poor endorsements of people like Dr. Mehmet Oz that have people scratching their heads. Even the Republican Establishment is rallying behind Dr. Oz in Pennsylvania over fellow globalist David McCormick. That’s not a good look for Trump.
Arguably the most concerning miss on his endorsements on Tuesday is the one nobody’s discussing. Mo Brooks has done much better since LOSING Trump’s endorsement. When Trump pulled his endorsement two months ago, Brooks was in a distant third place with under 17% in the polls. He finished yesterday by forcing a runoff and getting 29.1%.
Perdue and Hice were expected to lose, but just two weeks ago so was Brooks. He surged in spite of Trump. That doesn’t mean he got a bump from Trump pulling his endorsement. It just reinforces what I’ve said all along: Endorsements don’t mean much.
We need to fight harder to get America First candidates across the finish line. We can’t rely on Trump or Ron DeSantis or Tucker Carlson to do that for us. We need to do it ourselves.

Starting the Day With a Scripture-Inspired Roast Helps Center Your Thoughts on Eternal Truths Amid Temporal Pressures
The world can seem chaotic, especially right after we wake up. Many believers start their mornings reaching for something familiar — a hot cup of coffee — yet end up settling for mediocre brews that do little more than deliver a caffeine jolt. The daily grind of life, with its endless distractions, news cycles, and responsibilities, can leave even the most faithful feeling spiritually parched alongside their physical fatigue. What if your morning ritual could do more than wake you up? What if it could ground you in truth, nourish your body with exceptional quality, and quietly advance a kingdom purpose at the same time?
That’s the promise — and the reality — behind Promised Grounds Coffee. This Christian-founded company doesn’t just roast beans; it approaches every step as an act of worship and discipleship. By selecting only the top 10% of specialty-grade beans, ethically sourced from dedicated farmers in Central and South America, and small-batch roasting them with reverence in Austin, Texas, Promised Grounds delivers what many describe as the best coffee available — never burnt, never bland, but rich with origin stories and layered flavors that honor God’s creation.
From the vibrant Psalm 27 Roast (a light, bright medium option) to the bold yet peaceful 2 Timothy 1:7 Decaf, each bag carries a Scripture verse that turns your daily pour into a gentle reminder of faith. And through their Ounce Per Ounce Promise, every ounce of coffee you enjoy provides an equal ounce of clean water to families in need via partnership with Filter of Hope — literally brewing hope for body and soul, one cup at a time.
The challenge for today’s Christians runs deeper than finding a decent cup. In an age of convenience-driven consumerism, it’s easy to support companies that dilute values or remain silent on matters of faith. Many believers want their everyday choices — from what they drink to how they spend — to reflect discipleship rather than just convenience. Promised Grounds solves this by weaving Christian excellence into the entire process: beans nurtured with prayerful stewardship by farming families, roasted as an offering rather than a commodity, and packaged with Bible verses to encourage a mindset of gratitude and purpose from the first sip. Reviewers consistently praise the smooth, rich profiles — whether enjoyed black in a drip maker, iced on a warm day, or shared in fellowship — noting how the quality stands toe-to-toe with premium secular brands while delivering something far more meaningful.
This integration of faith and flavor addresses a real need in Christian households and ministries. Busy parents, church leaders, and remote workers alike report that starting the day with a Scripture-inspired roast helps center their thoughts on eternal truths amid temporal pressures. The coffee’s exceptional character — bright citrus notes in lighter roasts or deep chocolate undertones in bolder ones — comes from meticulous selection and careful roasting that respects the bean’s natural gifts rather than masking them. It’s the kind of coffee that elevates a simple quiet time, fuels productive workdays, or sparks meaningful conversations when shared at Bible studies or outreach events. And because it’s ethically sourced with integrity, every purchase supports sustainable livelihoods for farmers who treat their crops like family harvests.
For those leading churches or small groups, the impact multiplies. Promised Grounds offers bundles and options perfect for hospitality ministries, turning ordinary coffee service into an opportunity to point people toward the living water of Christ. Imagine greeting visitors with a warm cup whose very bag carries God’s Word — a subtle yet powerful witness that aligns with the Great Commission. The company’s Texas roots and commitment to “brewing hope” resonate especially with believers who value American enterprise paired with global compassion.
Of course, quality alone isn’t enough if the experience feels out of reach. Promised Grounds keeps it accessible with practical perks like free shipping on orders over $40, sample sets for discovering favorites, and thoughtful add-ons such as faith-themed mugs. Whether you prefer whole beans for fresh grinding, grounds for convenience, or even bulk options for larger households and ministries, the result is consistently superior coffee that makes discipleship feel integrated rather than added on.
As you consider how to align even the smallest habits with your walk with God, Promised Grounds Coffee stands out as a refreshing solution. It tackles the dual problems of subpar daily sustenance and disconnected consumption by offering a product that genuinely excels in taste while advancing a mission of clean water, farmer dignity, and scriptural encouragement. Believers who make the switch often describe it as more than a beverage upgrade — it becomes part of their rhythm of gratitude, a daily invitation to remember that every good gift comes from above.
If you’re ready to transform your mornings (and perhaps your church gatherings) with coffee that honors both exceptional craftsmanship and Christian values, I encourage you to explore what Promised Grounds has to offer. One sip at a time, you’ll be nourishing your body, refreshing your spirit, and participating in something far greater — all while enjoying what truly is among the best coffee available.
