Need to shrink the “I won’t vote for Trump this time because yadi yada” to “coocoo, coocoo”, much easier, less hassle to read, and conveys the same message, both ways.

I think it’s more “coo-coo” to rally around an almost 80 yo narcissist like DT. Can’t imagine Dems being stupid enough to back obviously senile Biden again, so telegenic much younger Gavin Newsome or someone similar will ride in for the win.

Just to clarify - Iowa - Corn belt - Corn for fuel - does nothing but cause your engine problems

Same with Ethanol

Ethanol is hydroscopic...that is it absorbs water

So cannot be transported in existing pipe lines...must be tanker delivered.

Also the water in the fuel doesn't help the engine...and it dissolves fuel lines in antique motors

And antique motor launches

Yeah, at one time I had nothing against your governor. In fact, I thought he was a great guy.

I prefer Trump and will vote for him as long as he’s on a ballot. Even when DeSantis announced, I bore no ill-will toward him. I looked upon him as a GREAT 2028 candidate.

But now, knowing who he hangs with, is supported by, and even kow-tows to them, I am against him.

Before I can even THINK about “teaching Trump a lesson:”, we have to teach the Deep State a bigger lesson.

That lesson is you don’t cheat and you need to be removed from all reins of power and punished.

That can ONLY happen if Trump is elected in 2024.

It truly is the ONLY way for those who care about our country.

They used the entire government’s law enforcement, intelligence agencies and Covid to remove him from power. If that stands, the nation has already fallen.

Trump’s mean tweets didn’t do that.

That Trump tweet is a perfect example of why I won’t vote for him a third time. He’s all about himself in a “If I can’t have it, I’ll burn the house down” kind of way .. imo.

Not sure why you expect anything other then derision on this site. You are the type of person who needs to go hang out with the neo-commies - now calling themselves "democrats"

Yeah I was disappointed Maria handled her with kid gloves. Hell I was disappointed she even had puffy lips on as a guest.
I’m sure she’s being told whom to book and how to act.

Another area of concern re: voter fraud:

Florida Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz has introduced a bill to shut down the Internet Covert Operations Program, a domestic surveillance operation run by the law enforcement arm of the Florida Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz has introduced a bill to shut down the Internet Covert Operations Program, a domestic surveillance operation run by the law enforcement arm of the U.S. Postal Service...

Postal unions support the establishment, and postal workers know who's MAGA and who's not. I don't trust 'em.

I sometimes find an FBI WIFI signal populating my laptop's WIFI network connection window, and sometimes notice an unmarked van parked down the street.

Paranoid ? Maybe, but I put nothing past 'em. I comment negatively about Biden, positively about Trump, and occassionally receive Trump literature and mailings of coins, pens, MAGA caps, T-shirts which would tell the postal workers I have financially supported Trump and am their enemy, so a spy watching me is not beyond the realm of possibility

Luckily Ethanol is hydroscopic. For my 1949 Chevy truck I add a cup of water to each gallon of gasoline in a five-gallon bottle and shake it up. In about a minute, the water absorbs the ethanol and drops to the bottom of the bottle and I siphon the ethanol free gasoline off the top.

Which begs the question....how do we wean pols from supporting Iowa ethanol ?

Even Trump.

My bro raises corn next door in Illinois, but they don’t have the nation’s first primary.

Corn is food, not energy.

The GOPe is doing everything it can to stop Trump. They undermined him while he was President. He is supposed to accept this crap?

Trump resurrected and expanded a dying party. He made it the party of the American worker and not the Chamber of Commerce. The Country Club Reps are living in the past. They are trying to destroy a movement, the face of which is Trump.

The people who are trying to burn down the house are the Bush Republicans who would rather lose than win with Trump. The Bush family refused to endorse Trump in 2016 or 2020. Bush 41 said he was voting for Hillary.

The 2020 election was stolen, but the GOP refuses to admit it. They are AWOL when it comes to criticizing the treatment of the J6 political prisoners or the Fedsurrection on J6.

Trump had a successful Presidency marked with significant achievements. A united GOP would rally around Trump in 2024. Why haven’t they?

You got that right. This was one of the stupidest things our government has ever done. Do not put our food into our gas tanks!

I post this as much for a smirk as a genuine response....but come on.....we named the Hurricane Hilary? I know it’s not spelled the same as H. Clinton but question I ask...you may respond with smirk or genuine answers....

How would we feel if suddenly a Hurricane is named Melania?

Already the jokes run wild.

And I have no problem with that.

But maybe we should think about naming Hurricanes after first ladies.

Smirk smirk

Trump had a successful Presidency marked with significant achievements. A united GOP would rally around Trump in 2024. Why haven’t they?

I'll give you the answers. But will you be like most Trump supporters, and just ignore them outright, and choose to attack me instead? Maybe, or maybe not, since you seem to be one of the more logical ones here.

First, those achievements you mentioned while Trump was President, were not solely due to Trump. Looking back, his biggest achievement is either the tax cut, or the 3 new members of the USSC. On the tax cut, it was more Paul Ryan and Congress's doing than Trump. Doesn't mean I'm a supporter of Ryan, because I'm not. But his staff and other Republicans wrote that Bill, all Trump did was sign it. On the USSC appointments, any honest person knows that McConnell played a major part in that. Doesn't mean I'm a supporter of McConnell, but Trump always wants to blame all his horrible appointments on who Mitch would allow in the Senate, but then act like Trump alone did it for the USSC appointees.

So it takes a team to accomplish things, but Trump just wants to hog all the glory for himself, when the facts don't bear that out. At some point, the rest of the team gets sick of it, just like a football team starts allowing sacks for their selfish, mouthy, egotistical quarterback who screams at them for the tiniest mistake. At some point they leave their own teammate out to dry, to show him he can't do it alone, and that we are supposed to be a team, not a one man show. But Trump refuses to ever be a team player, and just keeps leading the party off of one cliff after another. Eventually, you get to the point you just start letting that person go off the cliff by themselves. A point where 40 of 44 cabinet members no longer support you, and almost 0 out of 49 in the Senate.

But it didn't start out this bad, even though you tried to claim it. Trump and his supporters want to blame Congress for them not funding his wall. But it was Trump who promised to have a plan for Mexico to pay for it! Yet he never once offered a single idea on how to do that. That's Congress's fault? Of course not, that's Trump's fault, he's the one who promised Mexico would pay for it, not Congress.

Republicans could have CONVICTED him of impeachment, twice, if they were as against him as Trump supporters believe. The second time, for J6, they had to really withhold themselves, because most every one of them was completely furious at Trump for what he had just done. Every single Senator told him not to have that "rally," even the ones who were going to speak in his favor that day. They knew there was nothing good that would come of it, it was a disaster waiting to happen, and that ALL Republicans would be perpetually smeared for his idiotic decision to go ahead. I'm surprised they didn't convict him to be honest, but McConnell controlled the votes and said the vote is now officially over, and Trump is on the way out anyway, so we will spare him.

But if they really despised him the way you describe, it would have been the perfect opportunity to really stick it to him. But they didn't. They showed mercy. Trump supporters should recognize this, and understand Republicans lack of patience, or willingness to ever trust Trump again, is because he can't be trusted. He'll ignore what every single one of them says, and have another J6 like screw up in a moments notice. And even when they try to be nice to him, like having mercy on his second impeachment, neither Trump or his supporters will recognize it, much less appreciate it.

So that's why they're not rallying around him. Trump is just a time bomb, waiting to go off again, and his supporters enable his deepest darkest desires by treating as if he's some sort of deity, incapable of fault, no matter how obscene the situation is. Stand back, is the smart play. Else you just blow yourself up again trying to help him.
