He is handing out political endorsements.

Still cut off from social media, Mr. Trump released the statement endorsing Mrs. Sanders through his new political action committee, Save America.

A top Trump official, former Office of Management and Budget Director Russell Vought, announced Tuesday the formation of two more organizations to keep driving the momentum of the Trump agenda.

“A restoration is coming. Join us,” he wrote in The Federalist.

Just as he did in office, Mr. Trump is delivering unsubtle warnings to Republican senators that he will ruin them politically if they vote for his conviction next month.

The former president also is monitoring closely which Republicans are still with him, as Sen. Kevin Cramer of North Dakota can attest.

Mr. Cramer was at home Saturday when he received what he termed a “strategic” phone call from Brian Jack, who was a White House political director under Mr. Trump. Mr. Jack told the senator that he had just spoken with Mr. Trump.

“The president wanted me to just express again his gratitude for your support over the years,” Mr. Jack said, according to the senator.

It’s time to move beyond him and what remain of his presidency, start seeking out people who can win, update the Republican platform and hopefully bring some balance back to this country.

The "balance" between a half glass of water and a half glass of sewage is just a full glass of sewage. The demoncraps and your RINO puke buddies are sewage. No thanks.

MAGA, follow, or get the h#ll out of the way.

“The ‘balance’ between a half glass of water and a half glass of sewage is just a full glass of sewage.”

Love it. A little more graphic explanation of “one bad apple spoils the whole bunch”.
