@DonaldJTrumpJr
My dad and I are both supporting America First champion @JDVance1 for Senate because he's a conservative fighter who will stand with us against the radical left and the weak establishment RINOs in Washington DC!

And why are Rand Paul and Trump making different endorsements? 🤔
Don Jr needs to run with Don Sr for 2024. He’s the only VP I would trust.
It’s settled. Deal with it. Same with Oz. Next is McMaster(Az.). We have other fish to fry.
They’re not making different endorsements. Why is this Primary so important?
“And why are Rand Paul and Trump making different endorsements?”
Just conjecture, but I suspect Paul’s endorsement of Gibbons is from Paul’s Libertarian streak, while Trump’s endorsement of Vance is from Trump looking for allies in Congress.
Rand Paul endorsed Mike Gibbons
It’s not too late to say a mistake was made and change from endorsing Dr. Oz to Kathy Barnette
Paul endorsed Mike Gibbons - but that was well before he and Mandel both beclowned themselves at that debate.
The next time Don Jr publicly expresses other than total agreement with his Dad will be the first time he does. (And that’s fine by me, he’s a loyal son who undoubtedly often agrees with Trump.)
McMaster, Arizona? Good god it’s hard to imagine a less qualified more foolish person for Senate.
I have watched JD’s interviews on YouTube. He seems like an ok guy and conservative enough , maybe not an extreme conservative like Mitt Romney. He had genuine misgivings about Trump back in 2016 which is understandable because of Trump’s media image and little being known about Trump politically at the time. But since then he has become a strong supporter.
BS it’s settled.
There’s zero possibility that I am voting for Oz…zero.
Trump has learned nothing about personnel choices.
We are past the point where we selected candidates based on how many conservative boxes they checked. As we have learned all that means ZERO. ZILCH. ( How many boxes did Mike Pence check ?) There’s only one thing that matters. Is he going to stand with Trump and vote for his agenda , or not.
Donald Jr. dumped his wife and five kids for a newer model. Clearly a low character individual. Remember when we cared about such things? Apparently not anymore.
Iirc, she left him.
“ Donald Jr. dumped his wife and five kids for a newer model”
I have read there is more to it than that. The older model was no saint. Also , personal character took a back seat when we elected Trump (although he is nowhere near as bad as the media make him to be). The country has bigger problems and we don’t have the luxury of selecting candidates based on perfect personal character. Pence and Romney probably have great personal character if that’s all people care about.
All this pearl-clutching about President Trump’s personnel choices and endorsements makes me happy.
Since 2015, he has been called every horrible thing imaginable - a pussy grabber - a Russian asset - a white supremacist - a Hitler - a warmonger - an insurrectionist - an egomaniac - a tax evader - an evil business tycoon - the Devil - he’s been through endless investigations and impeachments - and nothing stuck.
Now, seven years later, the trolls on the Left are completely out of ideas for what to accuse him of next, while the trolls on the right are accusing him of…
…wait for it… …wait for it…. Bad endorsements!
OMG! The horror! This is hugh and series. How will he ever survive these devastating allegations?
At this rate, 2024 is going to be a cakewalk.
Truth be told if FR applied the same calculus to its members about misgivings over Trump that everyone now applies to politicians who expressed the same we would lose about half of the population.
At the outset of the 2016 primary Ted Cruz was the choice of most here on FR. Many of us liked what Trump said but had misgivings (me included) but by the end of the campaign Trump had won us over (and Cruz got a little desperate).
I will cut others the same slack. Trump has to endorse somebody and while he has whiffed on more than his share of “personnel selections” he has not wavered on his principles and view of government. A pleasant surprise to many (me included).
There are many politicians we usually like who have changed since Trump - look how many republicrats have abandoned neocon ideas. Between the MSM spin and clickbait crap foisted upon us there will always be some angst over endorsements but ultimately its up to the voters in Ohio.
Eat shit.
