You say the same thing RINOs/elites said in 2016. They didn’t vote for Trump. They said he wasn’t a conservative. That he was a Trojan horse candidate just saying things conservatives wanted to hear in order to get elected.

But Donald Trump did not pivot in the general election as the RINOs always do when they run to get elected. And when elected, he did just as he said he would do. In fact, he was the first republican candidate since Reagan to do so. But even before getting into office he had to fight dems and RINOs. They fought Trump tooth and nail but he stood with us.

But RINOs never say what they really plan to do. If they did, no conservative would ever vote for them, primary or general election. You can never trust them.

What should you do in the general election? I’ll give you the same choice the lying, flip flopping RINOs have given us for years. Will you vote for the democrat? Will you vote for Biden as the RINOs voted for Hillary in 2016 and Biden in 2020?

As for which R candidate would be worse than Biden? Every single RINO as bad as Biden because they are controlled by the same deep state as Biden.

I lived history and I have not forgotten what has been done. Nor have I forgotten the lies told to get elected. In the end, I will give glory to God and trust Him to decide who will win. Because it will take the Lord to clean out the corrupt Augean stables which is the US govt.

"They didn’t vote for Trump."

Then they were selfish and wrong.

Just as any Trump fans would be if they fail to vote R in the general, regardless who is the nominee.

Yes, by all means, trust in God. But he's not going to pull the R lever for you. He is no fan of quitters.

Trump was a terrible president is several ways. Nowhere near a model conservative. The Don is a RINO himself. But I still voted for him in the general both times.

I would vehemently disagree with you on this statement:

"He [God] is no fan of quitters."

Getting people to quit sin is the Lord's actual business.

Pray regularly for our govt. and this nation because business as usual is no longer enough. I have had enough of great pretender RINOs. I lived in FL for nearly 40 years. But DeSantis' history is typical FL dem/RINO. Florida is known for growing huge stealth RINOs. Does Charlie Crist ring a bell? DeSantis has done a good job in FL but his history plus his recent behavior aligning himself with RINOs does not convince me he can be trusted.

I am willing to wait and see if he is really is just a stealth deep state pawn. So far he's not showing me anything to dissuade me from that opinion. Supporting Trump in 2024 would have been the smart move. But his RINO handlers are so afraid of Trump they could not wait for 2028.

If Trump is a RINO why do all the RINOs hate him so and why was he the only candidate running to speak of and adhere to conservative principles? George Bush I, George Bush II, John McCain and Mittens Romney never met an illegal they didn't want to put ahead of Americans. They could not stand the idea of a sovereign US. Now it's chaos on the border. If Ron DeSantis thinks throwing US dollars away to corrupt oligarchs in foreign countries is the way to go, I want no part of him. If he's just doing it to get campaign dollars, and will change once elected, I want no part of him. I can't trust him.

Other RINOs hating Trump doesn't make him less of a RINO himself.

What other president shut down America?

And stuck us with a fake vax which has killed thousands of Americans and harmed millions.?

Donald J Bush and his WMD have been terrible for America and the world.

Trump shut down America? Really? I think there were governors that were responsible for that. As I recall, Florida had one of them.

There is a difference between actual party voter sentiment change and MASSIVE large-scale voter fraud perpetrated by Democrats. That said, any real voter dissatisfaction with Republicans is more of a RINO weasel problem than President Trump’s doing.

Democrats have the key now. That key is Soros-installed Secretaries of State and carefully chosen elections officials throughout the country. Couple this with Democrat plotted collusion with voting machine companies, MSM’s refusal to take voter fraud evidence seriously and any real complaint getting to a court jurisdiction infested by a Democrat Judge and what you have is a banana republic run not by a dictator but a leftist mind hive.

Uniparty Team A, Uniparty Team B. Unfortunately, the pubbie team is the Washington Generals in these preplanned events.

Is Trump “conservative “?

Strip his and Bidens name off their foreign policy, and there little difference. In 2nd ammendment stuff Trump pushed a ban.

When you look at the policy beyond the people, they are close to the same.
Notice how most of the GOP no longer talks about groomers?

What “immense power” is demonstrated by what color code where? It shows the GOP controls the Governor and legislature in lots of small states that they usually control, plus three large ones that they usually control (TX, FL, OH).

The Republicans lost control of the MN and MI legislatures in 2022.

The Republicans could not have been 27-0 in toss up House races in 2020. If they were they would have taken back control of the House.
