Iowa's anti-Trump Republicans are starting to lose hope
NBC News ^ | 12/13/23 | Alex Tabet

DES MOINES, IOWA — GOP voters planning to caucus for non-Trump Republicans in January have long suspected the former president could be upset in the Hawkeye State. These days, that hope is dwindling.

“It seems like it’s almost a foregone conclusion,” says Michael Wright, a Nikki Haley supporter from Grimes, Iowa, who is growing resigned to a Trump victory.

"These Trump supporters, they don’t budge,” said a frustrated Joe Pendergast, who is from Des Moines and was firmly committed to North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum before he dropped out of the race earlier this month.

"These Trump supporters, they don’t budge,”

Nope. You can't talk is into voting for a pantywaist.

We've seen the Bushes, Bob Dole, John McCain and Mitt Romney.

Apparently you haven't.

(says Michael Wright, a Nikki Haley supporter)

Apparently he roots for those with a mindset foreign and hostile
to traditional America and loves him some GOP Establishment.

Hey Pendergast, find a new hobby. You suck at politics.

“.. Joe Pendergast, who is from Des Moines and was firmly committed to North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum.”
Some people have no shame. You would think that Pendergast would be ashamed of his stupidity and refuse to give his name - maybe he’s Burgum’s brother -in-law and has been sleeping on his couch.

Yes we have, and the differences between them & the Clintons, Obamas, and Bidens is unremarkably indistinguishable. Which is why each of these former Republican presidents, and the Republican presidential candidate who is still alive, will vote for the Democrat.

Sadly, they are clueless as to why we will never vote for those they select for us. Because there is no difference between the establishment Republican & the Democrat option whatsoever. They both work for their own enrichment, period.

The far-left commie turd rollers at NBC are the ones who are starting to “lose hope”. They’ve run out of lies and false accusations in their hope of crucifying President Trump.

Not this Iowan. I’m still waiting to hear the plan when the Star Chamber in DC convicts Trump. The Commies never rest. They are going to convict him. Certainly doesn’t mean it is right. What’s the plan when those MFs do that?

Trump ain’t perfect but he’s the best of the GOP bunch. Budge to who else? But RINO’s are experts at budging so they project that to Trump’s supporters but nope.

I will vote for Trump regardless. This is my last vote. If I have to write-in “Donald J. Trump” I will do so. Get it?

Your frustration brings me great joy, Joe.

It is time to really to think about that. Every instinct I have tells me Roberts is going to help that evil prick smith take Trump off the board.
