The Republican Party may be girding for a brutal internal war amid the wreckage of its midterm elections — and Donald Trump is ready to “burn it all down” if he can’t keep his grip on the GOP, predicts New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman.
Who or what remains standing after such a clash is far from clear, she noted Friday.
The throw-down is likely to begin next week when Trump is expected to announce that he’s running again for president, against the advice even of some of his allies. Trump has already been trashing potential primary rivals, including Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and possibly Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin and former Vice President Mike Pence.
Trump is “vulnerable” to internal attacks now in the wake of the Republican Party’s dismal showing in the midterms — but “that has happened before and he’s survived,” Haberman pointed out in a series of tweets.
“Extremely few major donors ... want to do anything for him right now and a number of them are having active conversations about the best way to stop him,” she added. “But. Again…sound familiar?”
Nevertheless, the party appears ready to do battle to shove Trump aside to improve Republican chances of future ballot box victories.

Haha...I hope
Can we stop with the Maggie Haberman articles?
I soooooo trust the NYTs.
didn’t read past “Huffington...”
What kind of sh*t story is this?
Huge Trump supporter, but someone close to him that he values the opinion of needs to check him.
The words of Michael Brown's stepfather, "Burn this bitch to the ground!"
I'd rather take my chances as secession or in a civil war than be ruled over by Mitch McConnell and the uniparty tyrants.
“…against the advice even of some of his allies”
Trump HAS allies?
This article is a transparent attempt to sow discord along with liberal amounts of repressed fear.
Do it! If the same group continue to hold power and cheat this the last resort.
Unfortunately, the MSM and the RATS know these articles still work to drive our side into fits. We see it here all the time.
Maggie and NYT ready to burn down the GOP if they don’t get their way.
It sounds outlandish, but based on the stories we’ve seen in recent months among some prominent political names I would not be surprised if Trump has already laid the groundwork for a possible independent run in 2024 with Tulsi Gabbard on his ticket.
{yawn} 🥱
I think Mitch and Ryan write them.
Torch the GOP and the guys behind the uniparty lose leverage to control DC.
The left has more fear of Trump now than the had the first run waders required for the deep propaganda.
He has supporters who vote.
What has Trump said or done that makes you think this article is full of it?
