The 2024 Republican Iowa Caucus is now history. Donald Trump scored a decisive victory, capturing 98 of 99 counties and winning 51 percent of the vote. Trump’s opponents — Nikki Haley and Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.) — find themselves struggling to continue.
Haley jetted off to New Hampshire where she hopes to get enough support from independents to either win or finish a close second. DeSantis decamped to Haley’s home state of South Carolina hoping to appeal to that state’s evangelicals.
But the reality is that Donald Trump has an unshakeable base of support and is all but certain to be the 2024 GOP presidential nominee. As Donald Trump, Jr. bragged on Jan. 6, 2021, “This is Donald Trump’s Republican Party!”

I think thegagmeline was taking a shot at Trump, not Eisenhower.
Yep. He sure did.
Far too few do, but FR gives us the chance to educate others and open their collective eyes!
That TROLL belongs over on DU; not here!
We do have an Iraq war veteran who currently serves as Governor of Florida. But he suffers from a lack of Biden indictments.
That day finally came and they soiled themselves over mean tweets.
Maybe Ike saw war up close and personal, and unlike you, desired to stay the hell out of them. There is always some crackpot that wants war out there and we need to stop being the world’s policemen. Even George Washington said to stay out of those conflicts.
I was taking a shot at the idiot who made a retarded statement.
The Hill must not remember when Eisenhower helped MacArthur run the Bonus Marchers out of Washington. Perhaps they are simply ignorant. I’m sure if we could bring back Eisenhower they would hate on him, too.
Here’s a short Commie version of that, just to refresh their recollection. Do I see Eisenhower mentioned here? Oh, I do!

It’s packed with slanders, but the Hill should be OK with that.
LOL, thou shall not come between a Freeper and his prey!
Didn’t Eisenhower have a stroke while he was President?
What, EXACTLY, did I write that led you to assume that I wanted Ike to get Americans into yet another war?
Please reread ALL of my comments on THIS thread...OR get someone with better reading comprehension, to read and expalin my words to you.
GREAT COMMENT!
Yes, I read it...I agree with it.
I don’t think Ike was a terrible President. I just thought he was a little better than mediocre for that time, but I hold his views on Communists in the US government against him, though it is clear to me he was being led around by his advisors who were high-shelf RINOs for the day, but he had a personal distaste for Senator McCarthy, due to his attacks on General George Catlett Marshall.
He allowed himself to be led around due to his personal animus towards McCarthy.
If we had listened to McCarthy and done what we should have to Communists in this country back then, we wouldn’t be overrun with them the way we are today, IMO.
Fine, let’s grab the next retired 5-star and nominate him for President. In the meantime, Donald Trump will do just fine, thank you very much.
“There was inflation throughout Ike’s presidency, massive Strikes, Nam was heating up, Ike refused to say or do ANYTHING at all for Hungary, in ‘56, re the Hungarian revolution, Castro was an ever growing menace, the USSR was rattling a LOT of sabre and getting “cozy” with Commie China, South American countries were exploding, and on and one and ON!”
You bitched right there that Ike didn’t intervene. How stupid are you to bitch about it but then try to claim you weren’t for Ike intervening???
I hope that the writer of this asinine article knows that President Eisenhower carried out “Operation Wetback“ (yes, that was it’s actual name) in 1954, and deported over 2 million illegal Mexicans living in CA, AZ, NM and TX. If that’s the kind of guy he wants, we don’t need a retired five star, we have Donald Trump.

Come on DoughtyOne, your a smart guy and you know GAGME is nothing more than a TROLL, don’t feed him.
They would flip out over Eisenhower. He went much further then Trump is planning on doing. He had illegal aliens rounded up and deported.
