I've been saying this for a long time - never underestimate the ability of Republicans to trip over their own dicks.

Only for Republicans. You can be a literal retard and win as a democrat, which leads us to takeaway #9:

America is done. Not because of politicians but because the people are as dumb as a bag of hammers. The politicians are just a symptom.

Turtle and Ronna McDaniel are anchors. We knew that going in.

I don’t understand people who think honest criticism of Trump while still supporting him, equates to never Trumping.

I did vote for him. I would again in hindsight. I’ll vote for him again, if it comes to it. But he needs to go away.

Once they win their primaries the money should come from the GOP.

Barry didn't spend a dime on any of his selected candidates.

Shapiro can and should shove his yarmulke up his arse and STFU.
He's a phony and a joosupremacist.

Trump may get one more chance. He will then be three and done. And then we can look forward to 2028. Remember the movie Bladerunner? That is how the US will look in 2028.

Why not related to Covid? That was one of the biggest giveaways in US history.

But, there is still a yuge one: the tax cuts (without corresponding cuts in government spending).

QE/fed printing and 0% interest rates. We're feeling the effects of that now hard core

Trump did nothing to curb deficit spending BEFORE covid.

Of course it doesn’t anymore. See: Biden.

Now to see if all of the Uber MAGA bros will open their eyes and realize it’s time for a regime change and all DJT desires is the power.

DeSantis 2024 or we’re going to watch Trump lose another election and get this bumbling retard for another 4 years.

I would agree with most of that but disagree a little in part and I think he missed a couple huge factors, namely:

Ballot harvesting. Democrat voters tend to be lazy. Now the Party has a system that brings the ballots to the voters and it is well organized to make those votes a reality.

The significant shift in values and views on government. This is indoctrinated and it is going to be difficult for any real conservative candidate to change. I think we are in multi generational shift to the left.

I also think his take on candidate quality is flawed because there were a lot of bad Democrat candidates that won last night, which I think supports my factors listed above.

While true, I hate this assertion that anything a "Never Trumper" says must without merit.

The fact is, whether the media is to blame or not, America is ready to move on from Trump. He was the leader we needed, but his season is passed.
