— Democrats Blame Spread of COVID on DeSantis, Republicans Blame Biden Who is really to blame? – Javier Manjarres (DIERSEN: What do your critics/opponents blame you for? My critics/opponents a) blame me for all the losses that Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct have suffered since 2000, b) blame me for all the problems that the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO), DuPage County Republican Central Committee (DCRCC), and Illinois Republican Party (IRP) have had since 2000, c) blame me for all the problems that the Wheaton Chamber of Commerce (WCC), Wheaton Park District (WPD), TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC), and American Association of Political Consultants (AAPC) Midwest Chapter (MC) have had since 2000, d) blame me for all the problems that Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois have had since 2000, and e) all the problems that Wheaton’s Independence Day parades and fireworks have had since 2000. My critics/opponents stress that none of the following came to my defense when conservative-haters succeeded in stopping me from raising funds from Republicans so that Republicans could help sponsor Wheaton’s 2021 Independence Day Parade and Fireworks: Republicans who helped sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parades and fireworks since 2005, Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct since 2000, MTRO leaders since 2000, DCRCC leaders since 2000, IRP leaders since 2000, Republican Wheaton leaders since 2000, Republican Milton Township leaders since 2000, Republican DuPage County leaders since 2000, Republican Illinois leaders since 2000, Republican TAPROOT leaders since 2000, those who I recruited to speak at TAPROOT events 2005-2012, Republican WCC leaders since 2000, Republican WPD leaders since 2000, Republican ICRC leaders since 2003, and Republican AAPC MC leaders since 2001.)
