Trump voters are ‘done’ with ex-president: ‘He needs to disappear’
The New York Post ^ | November 11, 2022 | Salena Zito

The chickens have come home to roost for Donald Trump in Pennsylvania. After he stuck his nose in the state’s Republican primary process last May against the guidance of his most loyal advisers, many of his once-devoted followers say they are done with the former president.

(snip)

“If you’re a Republican in Pennsylvania and you look at Donald Trump’s bigfooting of the people in Pennsylvania and the implosion of his candidates in Pennsylvania, you’re pretty upset,” said Urban, a Washington-based strategist who grew up in Beaver County, Pa.

Urban said his phone has been ringing all week with county chairs and committee people who tell him they’ve had it with Trump.

“They said, ‘Look, we’re done. We’re done with him. He cost us this election and we’re done.’”

He’s not the only one. All day Wednesday my phone lit up with calls and emails from voters who expressed the exact same frustration. One woman said she saw the writing on the wall last weekend when Trump decided to take a swipe at Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis — calling him “Ron DeSanctimonious” — while he campaigned for Oz and Mastriano in Pennsylvania.

And when Trump went on to tease that he was going to announce “something big” next week (presumably his run for president in 2024), she knew it would hurt Oz on Election Day.

“I had a pit-of-my-stomach moment as I watched the rally,” said the former Trump fan, who did not want to be named. “It is hard to quit Trump — I voted for him twice enthusiastically.” But “at this juncture, I think we have to move forward to a new generation of leaders.”

I believe they want us to believe that but I don’t believe them.

Trump is ticking people off, who knows how far it goes but done? Nah.

They play this game and people will dig in behind Trump and against Trump and all that this will accomplish is a divided party.

With a 50/50 country... a divided party isn’t the best play.

I guess it will take another Trump loss in 2024 before some of you will actually get it. Slow learners I guess.

Independents turned on Trump and his candidates. You’re not going to win a Presidency when you alienate them and popular GOP candidates who didn’t kiss Trumps ring (Kemp, DeSantis and Youngkin).

Wake up now. Or it will be worse in 2024.

That's probably because he is getting paid to do it.

Silly me. I thought that I was on Zelensky's payroll. That's what I hear from the pro-Kremlin crowd anyway.

Pennsylvania screwed Pennsylvania. Don’t blame others. You are the ones that voted for the big brain addled goon.

Pa. voters screwed themselves and the rest of the country. First of all 700,000 votes were cast before the debate. Secondly who the heck is insane enough to vote for proven pro murderer imbecile? I blame the Pa. voter.

Which POTUS was as successful as Trump? Look at what Trump accomplished:

Gas price per gallon was about $2.30;
Inflation about 1.4%, mortgage rates were half of what they are now;
Unemployment was low before Covid and before Blue Governors shut everything
down and we were in the midst of a V-shape recovery until January 22, 2021;
Tax decrease; tax laws promoted small businesses as well as large;
US enjoyed energy independence - No Green Agenda, no war on energy, No Paris Treaty;
No war in Ukraine; NATO paid its way;
China was quiet and we were winning the trade war;
US companies were bringing home the jobs due to tax treatment;
Peace in the Middle East aka Abraham Accords; US Embassy moved to Jerusalem; and
Iran was isolated.
Got three non-left “I don't know what a woman is” Supreme Court Justices on the bench.

Who the heck can accomplish the above in four years while being impeached twice and investigated by Obama's Weaponized Agencies?

General Patton was always getting into trouble because he couldn’t hold his opinions back. And his very high opinion of himself.

“Trump is not going to win the election in 2024.”

And that’s exactly what EVERYBODY said in 2016. They laughed, ridiculed, mocked and insulted him from the moment he came down the escalator. And from the moment he won, EVERYBODY has been working from then till now, both day and night to destroy him. But hey, guess what Sparky? He’s still here.

Or, he fully analyzed the politics and electorate voting patterns of Pennsylvania and concluded that Oz was the best possible choice.

Add to that possibility that both the Moderate Republican candidate for Senator and the much more Conservative Republican candidate for Governor both lost. So, maybe, just maybe, no Republican was going to win in Pennsylvania. Did you ever think about that?

I believe the Voter Fraud in Pennsylvania, which is well known and documented, coupled with the Deep Purple nature of the Pennsylvania Voting Electorate combined to make it impossible for a GOP candidate to win most, if not all, statewide positions.

And yet here we are trying to lay the blame on President Trump, the hardest campaigning American by far for MAGA.

This is shameful!

“Do you guys honestly think these DemoMarxists aren’t going to pull the same crap on DeSantis that they pulled on Trump?”

They do.

I talk to them. They’re my suburban women friends

They say da santos is so nice. He has a wife and kids. He’s tough on the bad guys. No mean name calling. They bark at me when I say DeSantis has not been tested nationally. Ya he was a seal. He was a lawyer attached to the seal team. I’m a combat veteran. I see what I see
“Oh he’s wonderful’

I tell them he is not independent like trump. He is beholden to his megadonors. ‘Mouth breathing’

I say ‘you know they’ll frame him Or they’ll find something. They’re long past finding somethin’

‘Oh no. He’s wonderful’. The media doesn’t hate him. Trump failed. I love trump but he’s a loser a mean loser”

No clue.
