Why not? Trump lost this thing a long time ago by not prosecuting the steal from 2020 and bombing a useless Iran. Iran could only hit Europe which is gone anyway.

My biggest concern is the muslims. It will only get worse.

It’s what you wanted so why the sudden outrage? It’s what 5.5 million Texans wanted and the DMV counter that controls Georgia! I mean do you blame Trump lol you people tried to kill him twice and tried to jail him numerous times. This is the natural progression of consequences

Well….the retards spoke clearly during the midterms. That’s what they want and republicans agreed by staying home.

Bring it on!!!

If progressives agreed to name Medicare for All “Trumpcare”, 80/20 chance he would sign it.

This was a huge worry of mine after we got blasted in the midterms. It's not outside the realm of possibility that Trump would "make deals" with Dems to avoid appearing as a lame duck. He gets to tout it as being the ultimate across-the-aisle dealmaker, Dems get their policy, we're the losers. I don't think Trump is ideologically consistent enough to care about what passes as long as his name is on it and people like it

this also doesn't strike me as someone anxious to impeach the president.

I worry about this too. Trump is a populist, not a conservative. If he feels this can strengthen his reputation and legacy it’s not outside the realm of possibility. 1/3 of registered republicans are now in favor of some form of universal if you believe the polling.

Trump is more of a Democrat than republican. Not surprising

If Trump thought the lawfare was out of control when he left office in January of 2021......he ain't seen nothing yet. The DSA are stone cold killers.

I agree with a lot of what you said which makes the conservative response even more baffling.

If Trump is so easy to manipulate, wouldn't it make more sense for conservatives to give him republican congressmen instead of democrats? All they have to do is massage his ego and he'll do anything they want.

Instead, conservatives threw a fit. If all of them truly believe Trump is like this, then why did they spend so much time minimizing his successes? It's counterintuitive.

If you praised him for certain actions, then you would get more of those actions, right? Many make these claims, but their actions don't match their words.

Why couldn't someone like Massie get his bills passed by playing to Trump's ego since it is so easy? Was he not smart enough to put Trump's name on it to get his endorsement? Did his principles or ego prevent him from doing what's best for the country?

Maybe someday you'll figure out there is a uniparty and the one thing they both agree on is they hate conservatives.

They hate conservatives because they want limited government and these people just want more power so they can enrich themselves via lobbyists and pushing agendas for them.

It's always been that way. The only conservative to win an election was Reagan and they forced Bush on him. They'll pretend to be conservative like Bush Jr in 2000, but then once in office their big government neocon marxist policies are all that get passed.

They WANT TO LOSE. It gives them cover. When they all get into office they are fricked and get exposed. Notice they spent all that money getting rid of the few conservatives in congress. Republicans did that, not democrats - republicans.

I wish people would wake the frick up.
