Fox Business host Stuart Varney blasted former President Trump, saying his time as the leader of the GOP is likely coming to an end and a loss by Herschel Walker in Tuesday’s Georgia Senate runoff election would essentially be Trump’s fault.

“There’s a lot at stake here, more than just a balance of power in the Senate, it’s about the state of the Republican Party and Trump’s role in it,” Varney said Tuesday of Georgia’s runoff contest. “He seems to be losing what used to be his iron grip on the GOP and he still has a hard core of supporters who will follow them regardless, but many of the 74 million people who voted for him in 2020, have been turned off.”

Wow..a iron grip.
In the immortal words of Johnny Carson..I did not know that.

[vivenne]

Ok. But who potentially running is not part of the group you describe.

[WeaslesRippedMyFlesh]

Age has nothing to do with it.

Desantis can’t do what needs to be done.

[South Dakota]

Its a damned if you do damned if you dont situation.
Telling Fauci to f off means the enenmedia opens their nightly news with : trump ignores warning from medical experts...wants you dead

Its bad enough now

[38special]

So if DeSantis doesn’t run and endorses Trump, whatcha gonna do?

[Eleutheria5]

“Iron grip?” Please. What new delusion is this? His “iron grip” is that he actually helped people, instead of pretending to. “Evil charisma”. “Iron grip”. Sounds like a comic book villain.

[Carriage Hill]

Truly, Oz (PA) was and Walker (GA) — two of the GOP’s worst possible choices for US Senate.

[Chgogal]

You think DeSantis will be treated differently than Trump?

[Chgogal]

Ditto here. Varney is insufferable.

[Chgogal]

FETTERMAN

He won and he has less than half a brain.

[Fresh Wind]

Stuart Blarney.

[Chgogal]

You are correct with your a analysis, unfortunately.

[Carriage Hill]

That tells you the quality of Dr Azz here in PA. A rutabaga beat the faux-GOPer.

[nikos1121]

Good, don’t let the door hit you in the @ss.

[M_Continuum]

Please clarify what Trump can do that DeSantis can’t. It’s a sincere question. I’d like to see a list of things. Thank-you.

Varney and many others at FOX are kissing Rupert Murdoch’s Trump-hating ass in order to keep their jobs.

[Mr. N. Wolfe]

Well said.

[Dr. Scarpetta]

“DeoSanctus is the bait-n-switch GOPe candidate.”

Log time Trump supporter here as well (8 years)
Plan to make that number greater. I will not abandon him. His job is not yet finished. Accomplishing a portion of what is needed is NOT “getting the job done”. He has not
given up on us; do we give up on him?
Think again, not now; not until he
tells us it’s over and he’s through. Job completed. Duty Done.

Like Elliot Ness was to the Mafia; DJT is to politics.
We need Donald Trump and an honest party. Correction: TWO
honest parties.

[Lazamataz]

Please clarify what Trump can do that DeSantis can’t. It’s a sincere question. I’d like to see a list of things.

1. Sign checks on Trump's accounts.
2. Enter into contracts obligating Trump to the terms.
3. Boink Melania.
4. Shave Trump's face.
5. Claim he was the 45th president.

Shall I go on?
