President Trump has to stop endorsing Bush League Republicans, especially Amnesty Senators like Micro Rubio and John Hoeven.

A couple names I don't recognize, but it is mostly the usual RINO suspects that are providing yet more proof that they need to be voted out of office.

The six senators are cowards. The GOP supported this stuff under Obama too. They are big spenders. McConnell needs to go.

Trump needs to run the party as house speaker. People like Cassidy need to have Trump hangin’ over them for 6 years. Only he can make sure they’re gone. The rest of us forget.

I’ve been trying to wargame out Trump’s endorsement of assistant Democrats. It just makes no sense. We’ll never MAGA with progressive Democrat supporting Quislings in our ranks.

It sure seems like Trump wants to hold rallies and live in the WH as a mostly figurehead POTUS because without the support of his own party he is near powerless against the Deep State. His second term will be exactly the same as his first should he win in 2024: Democrat attacks while the GOP colludes with them to hamstring the MAGA agenda.

Cassidy was a near anonymous back bencher until he got reelected. Now he’s gone full Impeach 45 swamper. Let that be a warning to GOP voters about the reliability of other low profile GOP Senators. The Team China bench is deep in the GOP Senate.

I'm done with this managed decline. Let it collapse and hopefully those wandering around in a trance will wake up.

Which means they can basically say and do whatever they want. So in this case they are flipping the bird at the GOP base and Trump while feeding pork to their Chamber of Chinese Commerce donors. Duly noted.

Re-electing Assistant Democrats only assists the Democrats.

We should have started replacing them in 2014.
Flimsey Grahamnesty had already voted for amnesty and a permanent Democrat majority THREE times.

It’s almost like he doesn’t recognize that Amnesty Senators are committed to a policy that is the complete opposite of MAGA.
