....the Trump Era will effectively be over. We will go back to business as usual, and even future GOP nomineees for President will almost certainly be more like George W. Bush or Mitt Romney as opposed to the outsider who invaded the Washington Establishment, namely Donald J. Trump.

Agree or disagree?

The Trump Era was over the moment he lost in 2020.

This second go-round has been nothing like the first.

It’s Trump vs Establishment. Midterms don’t matter.

If they do, Trump will have only himself to blame. He was elected with a mandate and a huge amount of political capital and he spent it all on Israel, even saying shite like it was worth it to pay higher gas prices because of the same "iRaN cAnNot hAvE a nUkE" shite we've been fed for 30 years.

He burned it all up, willfully.

I used to think this statement was used to induce fear….

But when you consider how crazy the left has become, EVERY election has become the most consequential.

All these retards want to do is destroy.

Every election now is the most important ever.

I am with you, it's all more war, more spending. We are just fighting over cultural issues.

LOL

The Trump era via Congress was over after the BBB. They have done absolutely nothing to support him. All of his actions have been via EO from there on out.

He closed Brandon's open border.

DOGE effectively nuked USAID and similar entities.

Illegals are being deported, unlike what we would've seen if the puppet Kamala Harris had been installed.

Obtw, you are engaging in revisionist history. You did almost nothing but crap on Trump during his 1st term. You need to stop lying about that.

They likely will, and it already is. He made a mind boggling unforced error by getting involved in that war after a tremendous year one, and it has derailed his entire agenda.

Trump has embraced “the swamp” in truly unprecedented fashion.

In no way is it “Trump vs Establishment”.

I agree

However, can you explain why Republicans deserve to win? They've done nothing. ...and this 2nd Trump tenure has been a mess.

...without trying to use the reasoning "but the alternative (----fill in the blank) is worse".

That's because many Republicans, like scumbag John Thune, are bought-and-paid-for, too.

Our biggest fight is Dirty vs. Clean. That's why I pray that another outsider comes along to continue the fight ASAP.

This is my 10th "most important election ever" in the past 10 years.

Trump, Biden...it doesn't matter. We keep setting record deficits and moving left economically

Nothing like the first...
More illegals deported now
Less coming in now
Greenlands new deal
Venezuela
Drug boats seem absent
Fentynal down
Iran and Cuba on the edge of collapse(soon)
Euros doing more on self defense
China paying much more for energy
Pulled of a flawless 250 birthday and the best world cup ever
The world came to the US and actually saw us
Manufacturing is higher
USAID destroyed
Better Treasury Dept
Better Dept of War
Federal workforce has shrunk by more than 336,000 bureaucrats since Trump took office courtesy of Ailsa
And those are just off the top of my head lol
So your right Boozi

And no I didn't mention the F ups I'll leave that to you

I agree with this 100%. Well said and very true. In this Iran thing is the same thing we were saying in Vietnam for 20 years “oh we don’t want them to turn communist” that’s the same tire sales line as “we don’t want Iran to have a nuke”
