The morbid ‘plan’ to avoid Trump winning the GOP nomination (BARF alert)
msnbc ^ | Feb. 2, 2023 | Michael A. Cohen

Donald Trump is an electoral disaster for the Republican Party. He cost the GOP control of the House of Representatives in 2018, lost the presidency in 2020, and contributed to the party’s underperformance in the 2022 midterms.
So how to stop Trump from wreaking havoc in 2024? Apparently some desperate Republicans are simply hoping he dies before the election.
I’m not exaggerating. Earlier this week, the Atlantic’s McKay Coppins recounted multiple conversations with Republican officials who see no way to stop Trump from destroying the party in yet another electoral cycle.

Imagine Fox news saying "Democrats are hoping that Biden dies..." Note that I think it's evident that there are actual Trump haters in the GOP and on FR.

The first time I ever read the phrase “circular firing squad” it was regarding the GOP. Make the GOP the party of graceful losers again!

Many in the GOP are hoping for the very same thing.

"He cost the GOP control of the House of Representatives in 2018"

When an article starts with a dubious fact (I'm calling it a LIE), its pretty safe to say the rest can can be ignored.

A number of them have had significant crossover on another contentious topic on FR as well.

There may be a few Trump haters but expect more who have just grown weary of his narcissistic persona and bombastic rhetoric. Most of his troubles he’s brought upon himself. The thing with Stormy Daniels. With a wife like Melanie, what was he thinking? What could possibly be the logic behind it? If he is the candidate I’ll pull the lever once more but I won’t like it. I wonder how many of his MAGA followers would say the same if he’s not?

Darn if he had just stayed a Democrat billionaire and not announced a run for President, your nation wouldn’t have had to cook up a reason to spy on his campaign...

And he wouldn’t have become the Swamp and Deep State’s public enemy number one..

Why, oh why Trump, did you do this to yourself?

I don’t think there is any democrat that could beat Trump without massive election fraud ala 2020...

If so, shouldn’t the dems be doing everything in their power to make sure Trump is the nominee?

You're making the mistake of believing that stuff is true, when it's just a long succession of made-up stories by a desperate political class and media.

"Daniels" is on record denying that it ever occurred.

And it's not uncommon. Plenty of rich folks who never get into politics are targeted by grifters looking for a payday. They generally have their lawyers pay a (to them) small sum of money to get them to go away. That appears to be what occurred.

Do you also believe that nitwit about the dressing room?

2018 Cali and others already had early mail in voting. Remember all the repubs who won house seats on election day but lost them in a few days of "counting"?
2020 Early and mail in across much of the nation because meh COVID. 10pm, swing states stop counting, send repubs home and then continue to count.
2022 Same thing along with some dem AND RINO sabotage and some plain lousy candidates.

2020 and 2022, Cali GOP embraced early and mail in voting and that's the only reason we have a small majority in the house. They put drop boxes in churches, gun stores etc

All either outright fraud or gaming the early/mail-in ballot system. All we can do is fight to get voter rolls cleaned up and play the ballot game as best we can.

https://www.judicialwatch.org/colorado-to-settle-lawsuit-over-ineligible-voters

Judicial Watch announced today that Colorado’s secretary of state agreed to settle a lawsuit alleging that Colorado failed to remove ineligible voters from its rolls. As part of its settlement Colorado will report to Judicial Watch on its yearly progress in cleaning up its rolls for the next six years. Since Judicial Watch filed its lawsuit, Colorado voter roll removals increased by 78%, from 172,379 to 306,303 per reporting period.

You need to understand that Trump has exposed the Republicans for what they are: they're in it for the money.

Since the US is majority conservative/Republican, Pubbie candidates can just back into the seats in their respective districts, securing the paycheck, the stock perks, the benefits, the pensions after they retire and the 2nd round of money flow after they retire.

Actually FIGHTING for their constituency is ICKY - they'd much rather posture from the minority occasionally.

The Democrats are about POWER - by any means necessary. Which is why they do things like indict former presidents over phony process "crimes".

Look at the Pubbies - they couldn't even jail a sitting president for an ACTUAL felony - perjury in the face of a federal judge.

That would be possible if they understood logic.

That's your opinion.

I think more people have grown weary of the uniparty trying to pick our candidates.

More people have grown weary of the GOPe trying to sabotage the candidates they don't like.

And more people have grown weary of the uniparty destroying our country.

Most of his troubles he’s brought upon himself.

You have to be brainwashed by Big Corrupt Media to think that.

Was Trump “grifting” himself when said those disgusting things about women on tape? Conservatives must not project onto Trump what we want him to be. He isn’t that. Sorry.
