Would like to see a law that says if you are a Govt official and are running for Pres you must give up your position to run. With the exception of a sitting president.

Maybe Bill Kristol can convince Egg McMuffin to throw his hat in the ring again! No real contender for 2024 is gonna take on the president next year.

Please, please, please Romney!

Then Trump (may re-election be upon him) can challenge him...

You win, I support you for POTUS.
You lose, you resign your Senate seat.
Deal?

Remember he quit because he was so unpopular he couldn’t win reelection to the Senate.

It’s nobody. GOP can’t primary Trump, it’s waste of time and money. Only way it’s not Trump is if he decides he has had enough fun in one term.

“I will not be a candidate,”

And I’d like to announce right here that I will also not be a candidate in the 2020 election.

Willard may decide not to run, but the totally delusional Kasich will run again, if he has the funds; he still thinks he’s the best man for the job! And did I mention his dad was a mailman?

That was the suggestion by the MSM to Bob Dole and he resigned his Senate seat.

Primary Trump, and you lose more than half your base.

I myself would start working on dissolving the Union.

speaking of dogs, never forget his son killed a bunch at their kennel when the A/C broke and he told the owners they ran off.

Is there ANYTHING more stupid than a RINO politician? That's a serious question.
