"The Republican Party of 1912 decided it would be better off renominating William Howard Taft, even though its voters would have preferred another Roosevelt term. The resulting split ushered in Woodrow Wilson and the first academic globalists, whose bright ideas laid the groundwork for a second world war on the eve of the conclusion of the first. ...
But, despite the obvious differences, we’re heading for a 1912-repeat, in which the Republican Party ignores its own voters. The Republican machine has no intention of letting us choose Trump again: He is not a uniparty team player. They’d rather lose an election to the Democrats, their brothers in crime, than win with Trump.
That leads us to the inevitable question: What should we do when a majority of Republicans want Trump, but the Republican Party says we can’t have him?"

What is mentally unstable about Trump? How does he celebrate faggotry? What do you have against Trump meeting with a person who asked for his help because he’s having mental problems. Many, many conservatives believe that there should be exceptions to the abortion ban.
You and many others especially on FR are being mind farmed into believing that there is someone else who can extract us from the foreign controlled cabal that has captured our government. Ron DeSantis? Not in a million years. He’s already sold out to the GOP establishment. The same bunch that brought us GW Bush, John McCain and Mitt Romney.
If the 2020 election doesn’t get fixed and Trump is not reinstated your vote won’t matter anyway.
Watched “The Klansman” in the White House as well.
‘Good’ < / sarc > results for the country with everything you mentioned. Still living with much of it today...100 years later.
Couldn't resist.
If you'd just stuck with Democrat cheating, you would have still had it right.
I think Trump is already being sued for that 😆
Effective, long-lasting movements start low and grow high. Trump's lousy pick McDaniel is not helping, but the R party top-to-bottom should be marveling and imitating the FL miracle.
FL, nearly alone, is responsible for the R party majority in the embryonic new Congress. And their fantastic gov has shown how to give CDC/TrumpSwampJab the finger and is now taking a strong legal approach to investigate the evils of Warp Speed swamp science.
The top-down, Trump-as-Savior logic is not realistic or helpful. SuperTrump can wear dual capes and three masks, he still is not going to fix or drain anything significant alone. He does not really want to, he just wants the swamp to like him. He added oceans of swamp during his first at-bat.
And who do the OnlyTrumpers vote for post 2024? If the answer is Nobody, then his and their final contribution to America is decidedly negative.
Besides, it can logically be asserted that Trump IS the establishment candidate now, by definition. Ex-pres, loves McDaniel, McCarthy, employed Coco, is now telling us to moderate or abandon long/deeply-held R principles re abortion, BigGovt/SS, rainbow unicorns, etc.
However, it could also be true that the Mar A Lago gay pride event was the first meeting of SuperDon's Bull Mousse party.
“What should we do when a majority of Republicans want Trump, but the Republican Party says we can’t have him?”
Who says the majority of Republicans want Trump? We’re a long way away from the first primary.
His leadership record is to let the left lead him by the nose by his blessings on mail in ballots, covid lockdowns, masking, unvented Syrian immigrants, a bumpstock ban, a big pharma savior, endless covid checks to stay home.
In other orders more freedom lost, to no be regained. This covid strategy defacto federalized healthcare even further, stripped our national defense personnel to just the blindly obedient. Empowered the dems in perpetuity.
We are not coming back after his leadership.
His allegiance to the homosexual community led us to a place where children are being mutilated, but they aren’t old enough to smoke, drink or own a firearm.
Meanwhile people seem to think he is going to save them… despite the facts of his record.
The majority of Republicans weren't for Trump in the early Spring of 2015. Probably down in the single digits. I know, it took me a few months to come around.
Same now.
“I don’t believe you’re a conservative.”
Trump oversaw a massive increase in spending over a virus that was a nothingburger. He campaigned in 2020 on more stimulus checks. He supported no evictions during COVID - which lasted forever. He pushed vaccines - which was a reasonable thing, but failed in reality. He didn’t get much done during “The Summer of Love”. And he didn’t want states like Florida and Texas to lead the way in re-opening.
His track record was mixed. Trump was never very conservative. He was good on business during his first 2-3 years and did a very good job on Supreme Court justices. I gladly voted for him in 2020 (and 2016) but he wasn’t Mr. Conservative. Ever.
If Trump/Desantis isn’t the nominee, Democrats would win anyway, in an honest election.
Lot of people aren’t playing the lesser of two retards anymore, me included.
GOP needs to wig out
No, he wasn't. In the spring of 2020 he imposed draconian lockdown orders that rivaled anything we saw from Nazi governors in New York, New Jersey, Michigan, California, etc.
You can still find video clips from as late as June 2020 where he and his Nazi health commissioner are bragging about how many restaurants they closed and liquor licenses they suspended over violations of these lockdown orders.
It's disgraceful that this guy and his sycophants had the b@lls to run around on the campaign trail in 2022 bragging about how he "defended freedom during COVID."
Don't buy the bullsh!t from an Ivy League lawyer who has never worked outside government in his life.
And when he does, we’ll be welcoming President Newsom…
The deficit was down significantly under Trump in his first three years in office.
And, you know damn well that Trump's budgets were far less than Congress's were even when Republicans controlled Congress.
You're arguments are laughably bad.
I’ve noticed the same and hope it turns back as well.
There are several causes: Covid responses, vax responses, the Ukraine War, having the 2020 election stolen have all divided us.
I think if we can put some of this behind us and focus on where the country needs to go, things will change.
Interesting that your first thought was faggotry!
Don’t psychologists refer to that as ‘projection’?
And don’t try to groom me.
Thees one? Why not, the Dems get away with it.
Fine. You hold out for Mr Perfect (Trump) and watch the libs control everything in ‘24. And if you think that there is no difference between DeSantis and Biden, Warren, AOC etc you aren’t following politics. Trust me, the libs see a big difference between DeSantis and the rest of the dems in DC.
I voted for Trump in the primaries as well. 2 primaries + 2 general elections = 4. But math is hard for leftists. Although you were probably a never Trumper cruztard.
