Michael Steele: It ‘doesn’t matter’ if Trump-endorsed candidates lose. ‘Even a loss is a win.’

With Republican primaries in West Virginia and Nebraska underway, Michael Steele, Chuck Todd, Kimberly Atkins Stohr, Mark Murray, and Vaughn Hillyard join Andrea Mitchell to discuss this latest test of Trump’s influence over the Republican Party through his endorsements.

“It doesn't matter whether they win or lose. He doesn't like the stain of a loss, but even a loss is a win for him,” says Steele. “He's got these candidates groveling to him. You know, Mooney crosses state lines just to be on the stage with Donald Trump in Pennsylvania,” Steele explains. “The establishment still has no clue what to do, so they capitulate and buckle. So where does Trump lose in any of this?”

Is Michael Steele still calling himself a republican?

And, aren’t Pelosi and Schumer the same kind of republicans as Steele?

Imagine the libs sitting around a table discussing strategy.

“So, why don’t we come up with a new demeaning catch phrase to label the deplorables with.

I know: Ultra MAGA, that’s it, that’s got to work”

You need the hard asses to take the lead as they’re willing to take the arrows. Let the softies explain their rough-around-the-edges qualities while being loyal. We’re not there yet. Think the kinder gentler crap.

Something tells me Newt was a better bomb thrower than speaker even though he was effective for 4 years. Too easy a target then so was Nixon.

Not really. They still work surrepticiously to undermine him.

Steele is someone who will say whatever those signing his checks want him to say.

He should be just ignored.

I would say “What the h3ll happened to him, anyway?” but - *sigh* - we know all too well, don’t we?

Bribery, extortion, blackmail. Pick one or more. Probably from within the party.

“But...how does it help to LOSE? I’m still having a hard time with that!”

“You’ll get $160,000 for it. Don’t you remember?”

He's got these candidates groveling to him.

That is the profile of pretty much every Establishment Republican at a US Chamber of Commerce event.

Steele wishes they would have grovelled for him a fraction as much.

What Steele really wants to say: We got to get rid of the Republican Party constituency.

The establishment doesn’t understand any of this, they thought they had killed him... they stole his election, the portrayed him as instigating a riot and insurrection, they thought they had him dead and buried and he’s still the most influential man in politics, as much as they try to suppress and ignore him.

They don’t get it, and haven’t since the start... and that’s fine, we’ll keep beating their arses whether they get it or not.

“Michael Steele, House Negro.”

Steele is the Stepin Fetchit of the Republican establishment and seems to enjoy his role. But at least he’s clean and articulate.

And no different from any Democrat when it comes to his hatred of true conservatives.
