The post-Trump era has begun
The Hill ^ | March 17th, 2022 | Myra Adams

Posted on 03/17/2022 6:11:48 AM PDT by shadowlands1960

Facilitating the loosening of former President Trump’s iron grip on the Republican Party are cumulative sets of actions and statements emanating from spheres of GOP influence. Meanwhile, elected leaders’ fear of Trump backlash and name-calling is diminishing — signaling the post-Trump era has begun. Trump’s unraveling is akin to a “decline by 1,000 cuts.” Let’s examine it.

The players are prospective 2024 presidential candidates, officeholders, the Republican National Committee (RNC), former high-ranking Trump officials, a conservative think tank and a mega-donor kingmaker who owns a jet.

We begin on March 4 at the RNC’s major donor retreat in New Orleans, attended by former Vice President Mike Pence. His appearance proves that Trump could not prevent Pence from addressing this high-roller crowd. Indirectly, Pence spoke critically of Trump, saying, "There is no room in this party for apologists for Putin. There is only room for champions of freedom." Pence boldly countered Trump’s earlier praise of the Russian dictator he infamously called “savvy” and a “genius” in the war's opening days.

The players are prospective 2024 presidential candidates

Of course they are, and none will get much support at all. I guess that's what they consider end of an era.

Just like the media is desperate to cast Putin as the reason for Biden’s mounting crises, they’re also desperate to try and discourage Trump supporters. Don’t fall for it. The anger all across America is palpable. Patriots are ready.

Spheres of GOP influence? Oh,she means like voters? To this day Trump can easily attract a crowd of 10,000...15,000...20,000.

OTOH,The Big Guy can attract a crowd of a few dozen...Kommie Harris can attract a crowd of a dozen...and Bella Pelosi can attract a handful of people.

However,it must be acknowledged that Buttplug can attract a crowd of hundreds...every one of whom is HIV positive.

Trump has got to lead if he wants to be the leader of the GOP. He’s not doing that right now. Rallies and talking about the stolen election are not enough.

OH, Shut UP.

Go back to bed and when everything is CLEAR ENOUGH FOR YOU, you can emerge with your quivering, scary, cowardly self.

I would HATE to be you.
