Yep. Those flags are everywhere. And many more will likely be out soon.

Not stupid. Corrupt. Corrupt and very uncomfortable that his gravy train will come to an end.

It won’t matter unless 2020 gets fixed.

Any republican running better be ready to have a descriptive adjective such as “low energy, little, lying, crooked, etc” attached to their name. Descriptors that may stick for a lot of years.

I never understood the “Trump as Speaker” thing.>>>>>>>>

President Trump could run for Congress this coming November. When seated, the Republican caucus would elect him speaker because the Repub licans would control Congress and get to select a Speaker. IOf Trump were elected to COngress, the New Speaker would be Donald Trump. H would tie the lefty Dems up in knots. And then he could run for the Presidency in 2024, or take the presidency upon the resignation of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

Imagine a joint Impeachment proceeding against Biden /Harris. If Trump were the Speaker of the House, he could oversee their impeachment investigation. There are grounds to impeach both of them.

I agree. I don't think Trump would want to be speaker. That said, given his “The Art of the Deal”, I think Trump could do well as Speaker, if he ceases the ad-hominem attacks...

Exactly. The uniparty is more prepared than ever to deal with a Trump should he win.

Thats why he is so effective.

Little Marco remembers it well.

President Trump gives as good as he gets. He creates a viable candidate who goes low on him into a caricature which they cannot overcome at the ballot box.President Trump is very skillful with that.So much so that the Democrat leftists become apoplectic at the very mention of his name.

Ad Hominem attacks are a part of woke culture. President Trump is actually way better at it than leftists ever hope to be, and the ridicule President Trump uses is not anything new. Winston Churchill used it also to great effect against totalitarian fascists and Marxists in Europe. Totalitarians cannot,as history shows and as it lately turns out, stand ridicule directed at their own cult of personality. The wokeness immediately morphs into cancel culture. And so they hoist themselves on their own petard.

All this from an “ Ad Hominem” attack.

Nikki Haley, former Vice President Mike Pence

LOL, neither would garner any significant support.

“Best case scenario. Trump wins in 2024, DeSantis wins in 2028, Donald Trump Jr. wins in 2036 after Ron’s two terms.”

Donald Trump Jr? What qualifies him to be a good Republican candidate? Genuinely curious.

“DeSantis has no intention of becoming Pence 2, another guy who had the support of Trump’s base but who lost that support — and his political career”

That only happens if you become an open unmitigated deep state traitor and conspire against him for 4 years.

Not to mention the unlikely, yet possible. Trump becomes speaker, GOP house impeaches and removes Biden and Trump for election fraud. Speaker of the house becomes president.

The 2016 field was crowded. How’d that work out?

Trump has learned a hard lesson and does not want the position to make money for himself or his kids. I truly believe if he gets in while still young enough with his faculties still workng that he will go scorched earth on the swamp without a care in the world of who he offende and without the need to play itchy scratchy with the press or the lifetime congress critters. Or their Schwabbian masters. Once the dust settles perhaps somebody civilized like Desantis can take over and do some real good moving forward without the entire swamp juggernaut perpetually sabotaging him. At this point, it is probably the only way

Why would Mitch be scared? There is nothing that Trump can do to him.

Mitch has made his money off of his cushy Senatorial leader job.

He is worth about $40 million to $50 million and he has been in the Senate forever.

Trump will be our candidate in 2024 and the Demoncrats can not stop him from doing this since he has the approval of all law abiding citizens.

I know that the midterm elections come in at a little more than three (3) months away and the Republicans look pretty good right now.

Mitch McConnell just needs to get out of his way.
