But you see, I’m not sure he really believed any of that. The former president just found those issues with a groundswell, which stroked his ego.

When he started advocating spending trillions in stimulus, deficit be damned, just to get re-elected... then, I knew. He was liable to turn on any and every issue, depending on how the wind blowed. Those issues he advocated brashly and vulgarly got him a rock-star following. He misses that badly.

I think he should go away for a while, come back and endorse somebody like DeSantis in a few years. Not sure why he wants to stay so active in politics, the intel agencies and media will just continue to destroy him. But he does have a massive ego, no doubt about it.

I predict that in 50 years, some of the very best-paying jobs here in the USA will be working for the US FedGov. Government will not keep expanding, will not stop getting pay increases and absolutely WILL do whatever it takes to keep itself continuing to do both.

Something you know jackshit about. Laughable how divorced you are from reality, must be the product of an astoundingly low IQ.

We'll never get anywhere with the GOP until the establishment is rooted out of the Republican Party.

Trump is doing the right thing. He tried to work with McConnell, Pence, etc, for 4 years and they said the right things and then backed down when it came time for the rubber to meet the road.

Do you want to continue to do that, or have the conversation about the establishment Republicans?

Yeah I know. I was just making reference to actual storyline and angle itself they were trying to sell comparing it the infighting amongst the parties

Although you do bring up a good a point about marks. The political spectrum on both sides is full of them who really think the elected official they voted to send up there or who just got appointed to some position is the good guy that’s gonna make stuff happen for them.

Somebody needs to step up--Trump certainly is not.

How many votes does his attacks on republicans get toward the goal of taking Congress???? None.

Unless you want out and out socialism you better start thinking about "getting to the table" to stop the leftist in 2022.

I would say that marks aren’t smart enough to follow the money to find how it will all end.

A vote is free to make, but the goal of wrestling is to get marks to pay for the product

You anti-Trumpers (limpwristers) are responsible for Biden being in the White House.

Now you losers want Trump to raise money for you.

If I were Trump I would tell you to frick off.

By calling Cheney out?

The GOP can pound sand, but they are right to distance themselves from anyone named Cheney.
