Tehescmarts: Added another candidate who is running and endorsed by Trump

These are authentic candidates who put America First and are running to remove RINOs/Establishment Republicans and Democrats from office.

It also does not include Democrats in deep blue districts, such as [[Maxine Waters]] or [[Ilhan Omar]], as that too would be a waste of money.

2022 America First Candidates against RINOs and Democrats

2021-10-15T00:24:53Z

These are authentic candidates who put America First and are running to remove RINOs/Establishment Republicans and Democrats from office. This list does not include People who put America First who are in the house like [[Marjorie Taylor Greene]], [[Lauren Boebert]], [[Mary Miller]], among others.

'''Please note, this list does not include RINOs that would be to difficult and expensive to remove like [[Dan Crenshaw]] or [[Jerry Moran]]. It also does not include Democrats in deep blue districts such as [[Maxine Waters]] or [[Ilhan Omar]], as that too would be a waste of money.'''
