Trump Presidency

[NorthDakota]

It's absolutely pathetic that a guy who lost an election is out holding rallies. If I lost to a guy who is nearly 80 years old and is clearly on the cognitive decline, I don't think I'd be able to show my face in public. Imagine back in 1994 if HW Bush was going all over the country holding rallies after he had lost. We'd all be saying that he should be institutionalized.

I'm with ya. Voted for the guy twice. He really should step away. Apparently can't help himself. Its not a good look whatsoever but free country i guess.

Hot take: Democrats and the outlets that are more favorable to the Democratic Party (NYT, CNN, MSNBC, Meidas Touch, Lincoln Project, NPR, ABC, NBC, Atlantic, CBS, etc.) don’t want anything to happen to him. They want Trump to be the 2024 GOP nominee because they know he’ll lose. They want him to take out DeSantis in the primary because they know DeSantis will likely win, particularly against Biden. The DeSantis-Biden debates will be more of a bloodbath than the Obama-McCain debates.

That doesn't seem too hot a take. Plus DJT gets ratings/clicks.

Better odds + ratings = dream scenario for those orgs

His ego won't let him go quietly.

I didn’t read the article, but the headline had me laughing.

Fact check: Trump falsely claims George H.W. Bush took millions of documents to a former bowling alley and Chinese restaurant | CNN Politics

First, former President Donald Trump tried a false claim about the document-handling practices of former President Barack Obama. Now, Trump is making the same false claim about other former presidents.

People are probably telling themselves, it’s got to be true because who would be crazy enough to make up a story that wild. LOL

And now he's blaming the GSA for packing everything. I guess the White House doesn't have a moving contract with Mayflower or United Van Lines. lol

He is a serial liar and a fraud. Lol. The art of the deal tends to just be extortion and NDAs. Haha

Yeah who cares about our nations secrets but Hunters laptop….. lmao

I’m saying in general nothing will happen because in general nothing ever does. I’m sure we will lump Hunter and Joes nefarious dealings in that as well. Your “lmao” should be reserved for government, they are a joke but your defensiveness is as well.

 

[Irish#1]

Well, that was the reason for the raid, right?

 

[NDMatt91]

Nothing is going to happen to him, which is unfortunate. I'm also not convinced that news networks and Democratic politicians want anything to happen to him. IMO, they want him to be the 2024 nominee because he'd be much easier to defeat in a general election than a Rand Paul, Ron DeSantis, or Chris Sununu. Over 5 and a half million voters who voted Republican down the ballot in 2016 and 2020 didn't vote for Trump. These folks will never, ever vote for him but will vote for pretty much any other Republican.

Goes both ways. You can’t honestly believe Joe Biden won because people wanted him to be president, they just voted against Trump. America probably has one of the most uneducated and ignorant voter bases in the whole world. Party politics and the ability to vote straight ticket as an option on the ballot just enables this ignorance even further. People generally do not vote for a candidate but for the letter beside their name.

I posted this in the Politics thread, but regardless of how you feel about January 6th, at a minimum, this guy is a traitor to the Republican party. He helped sabotage Perdue and Loeffler after he had LOST his election by making the GA runoffs all about himself, embracing Lin Wood and Sidney Powell, and parading them around GA. They told GOP voters to boycott the runoff. That, coupled with his behavior which angered Independents and mobilized Democratic voters who otherwise would've been complacent since Biden had WON, handed 2 seats over to the Democrats that Ossoff and Warnock had no business winning. Now, he's essentially saying it'd be better if a Democrat won the Colorado Senate election because the Republican candidate doesn't kiss his ass and has the audacity to prefer a different Republican candidate in 2024. He also made it his mission to ruin the political careers of Doug Ducey and Pat Toomey and has essentially made them unelectable because they didn't embrace his conspiracy theories about dominion machines switching votes. Ducey was planning on running against Mark Kelly and would almost certainly be ahead, and Toomey would easily defeat Fetterman, who could very well be brain-dead right now. Wonderful job, jackass. Screw him.

Man really came in here and gave more criticisms than the daily apologist crew who've claimed to never vote for him lol.

And I voted for him in 2016. Couldn't ethically vote for him, or Biden, for that matter, in 2020. I just don't see why it's so hard to call a spade a spade, regardless of what party you belong to. And I'm no liberal, I'm about as conservative as you get.

I think most conservatives on this forum would admit to voting for him but also we don’t want to see his name anywhere near the 2024 ticket. I agree with everything said and most would.

 

[Irish#1]

But a Washington Post-ABC poll from last month indicates that a Biden-Trump rematch wouldn’t be the preferred slate for many Americans: 56 percent of respondents leaning toward the Democratic Party said they’d prefer a nomination for “someone other than Biden,” while 47 percent of those leaning Republican said they’d want Trump — down from 67 percent in October 2019.

Sounds like he is looking to get MGT as his VP. Those two shitpieces on a ticket versus DeSantis lol..... what a fucking shit show. That will be a tossup AFAIC. DeSantis MAY carry the more sane R leaning and purple areas but the utterly insane base in Trump country will go almost exclusively for Trump and MGT and carry lots of states.

DeSantis looked weak next to Crist last night especially when Crist asked him if he would commit to a full4 year term as governor knowing full well DeSantis is running for President. DeSantis looked like an absolute spineless curr at that moment. Trump will eat his ass with syrup on stage in a debate.
