Former Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL), now a CNN contributor, said Monday on “Anderson Cooper 360” that the Republican Party would “burn down” if former President Donald Trump is the GOP presidential nominee for 2024.
Kinzinger said, “DeSantis, he’s Trump-lite, he’s a younger version of Donald Trump. That was his play. It’s not working because if you want Donald Trump, guess what, you’re going to vote for Donald Trump. I think DeSantis is DOA in this election.”
He continued, “This is just a wag, a wild guess, I think the only people who have a shot besides Donald Trump, potentially Tim Scott. Tim Scott is the guy who I think really could surprise people, similar to Bill Clinton in ’92. Chris Christie actually has a shot if there is a widespread kind of understanding that Donald Trump is utterly unfit for office, and he’s been the one that has really taken Donald Trump head on. It’s a very small path, of course, and then I think, you know, I think it’s people like that that may have a shot. But no, this is Donald Trump’s campaign, this is Donald Trump’s race. He’s probably going to win this primary.”
Kinzinger added, “That doesn’t mean the other Republicans listening to this that don’t like Donald Trump, stay on top of this. Try to save the party. Because it’s a noble fight, and frankly, the Republican Party will burn down in the general election in 2024, if, in fact, it is Donald Trump, and that’s when you can rebuild.”

Because that's how the media wants to frame it, by cherry-picking the coverage of Trump to only show the negatives.
Translation = I’m auditioning for a seat at MSNBC, or CNN.
What do you care Adam? You’re no Republican, by any stretch of the imagination.
It cuts the number of enemy parties in half, and clarifies the situation.
BAT CRAP
Kinzinger is now appearing in leftist speakers’ series:

Stick a fork into him. He’s done!
Kinzinger needs to put down Hunter's crack pipe.
Ya, noticed too late....

What a dope.
Imagine being this squatty dude and believing if centrist Republicans fail to vote for Trump in the general, MAGA voters will ever return to vote for a Republican again. It’s more likely a third-party alternative would become the go-to for MAGA voters in the future.
The republican party will burn down in the general election if Trump is NOT the 2024 nominee.
And you and Liz got the matches, right Kinzi?
Tim Scott is as stupid as Pelosi.
We need someone like Dr. Oz who can win in November. Oh wait... never mind.
I tell all the weak kneed so-called republican punks to get used to it because they are going to have to vote for Trump.
Some say he won’t be the nominee or they won’t vote for him.
They make me sick. I tell them the POLICIES matter not your pathetic response to a real leader.
And Biden is ten times a pos scumbag compared to Trump.
Friggin babies get their sense of reality from commie MSM.
“...and that’s when you can rebuild...”
I agree, when Washington DC is vaporized under the heat of a thousand nukes, then that’s when you can rebuild.
One of the gop congress mopes who voted for impeachment, thinking it would please democrats and they would spare his district in their redistricting. Didn’t work of course. Now he’s ex-congressman.
The vast majority of Republican elected officials aren’t worth the shot and powder to blow ‘em to hell.
If 100 of them lose, good riddance.
