“Party, usually wins big. 40 year Inflation and we can’t win big is a devastating result.”

___________

Thanks for validating my statement:

“We had so much to run on this election, regarding the totalitarians during this pandemic, destroyed economy and retirement funds, WWIII proxy war, compromised and dysfunctional first family and a horrible VP, energy independence destroyed, vastly weak and woke military, corrupt DOJ, corrupt CIA, wide open borders, Afghanistan withdrawal debacle, CRT and Transgenderism forced in public schools and so much more.

What did the GOP run on? That’s a good question, eh! They didn’t. They threw this red wave under the bus and they colluded again with Democrats/RINOs to let them keep power.”

And got Trump out of the picture. Trump is just going scorched earth and saying “F this S, I’m out of here!”

Of those three states you mentioned, only PA is even relevant to the Trump-vs-Establishment candidate question. And even that’s not a clear indictment of Trump because Oz was very likely the best candidate for that race anyway.

In Nevada, Laxalt is as “establishment” as you get. And a lot of folks here seem to be forgetting how fouled up Arizona has been for several election cycles. Remember — AZ is the state where establishment hack Martha McSally had the embarrassing distinction of losing two consecutive Senate elections in the same state (in 2018 and 2020).

Instead of courting the people he needs on his side, he is attacking them.

He did the same in 2016. I was never a fan of the "Lying Ted" rants, but Trump still easily won the general election in TX.

I enjoyed his no-holds-barred attacks as much as anyone, but now he’s turning on his fellow Republicans with his windy boasts and vulgar insults. And frankly some of his barbs go too far. Yes, Rosie O’Donnell is a “fat ugly pig,” but it’s downright unseemly for a president or presidential candidate to say so publicly, however much we enjoy hearing it. This is why so many supporters are wondering if he hasn’t jumped the shark. It’s a damned shame too. Just think what he could have accomplished — and continue to accomplish — if he could only control himself. Again, a lot like Alex Jones.

But eventually he picked the wrong one in DeSantis. And I don’t even think DeSantis is going to run.

This will all blow over quickly, even quicker if DeSantis doesn't run. This is much ado about nothing.

Goodbye lover. Ask McConnell for a job. I’m sure his office will give you some nice greetings.

Except that what we are seeing in public, is Trump’s comments, without the context that we might see if he’s really responding to private communications with Youngkin and DeSantis.

I don’t see Trump coming back from it now. Even if he didn’t go off on DeSantis, the GOPe made it clear that they will do anything to stop Trump, they won.

Best thing now going forward is for DeSantis to work as Governor of Florida to change the National GOP into his image. Can’t do that if he runs in 2024.

Forget 2024, it’s lost. Even if the Republicans win, it would be with someone like Liz Cheney.

I’m betting it’s McConnell behind the scenes.

“Sloppy Steve” Bannon remains one of President Trump’s staunchest supporters. Stay focused.

He didn’t refuse to answer. Crist’s question was not per debate rules and D appropriately just ignored it.

Okay, you thought it was appropriate to ignore the question. I think the opposite.

The the rules don't stop DeSantis from speaking on that issue at any point during the debate, before the debate or following the debate.

It's certainly DeSantis' right to say anything on the matter.

And it certainly Trump's right to respond to some of the worse RINO's pushing DeSantis while DeSantis stays quiet.

As that was the point I was responding to.

That's fine.

But I wasn't making that argument as an individual point. My point involved using the full context.

Don’t be a defeatist. If you’re going to go down, go down fighting. President Trump is the best fighter on the political landscape.

Trump is trying to lose my support more than I am trying to be unsupportive of him.

now he’s turning on his fellow Republicans

Remember Low Energy Jeb and Lying Ted? This is not new, it's Trump's m.o.
