You are mentally ill.
We are not a monarchy! Anyone can run for President.
DeSantis is not some serf who is honorbound to lick Trump's feet.
I want my politicians to be loyal to the Constitution not loyal to an arrogant incompetent man.
This is a complete sign of weakness from Trump.
If Trump still foolishly thinks he is the best candidate why not prove it in an actual competitive primary?
I respectfully disagree with you on Trump and his 2024 campaign.
Why I don't support him again is very simple.
He has not learned anything from his mistakes! This is a man who still brags that the covid vax saved 100 million lives, still pals around with the neocon king Lindsay Graham and still has the audacity to say he will drain the swamp. He has learned nothing and he is completely out of touch with his own base.
He even had his inner circle whip votes for eternal loser Ronna McDaniel and secured her re-election. This is not making the GOP better.
This is ensuring stagnation, incompetence and preserving a state of perpetual losing.
Trump's obnoxious style of communication absolutely repulses suburban voters. He had incumbency advantage in 2020 and he wasn't able to secure his win. As a private citizen, he has zero chance of winning the White House again. He has more baggage than ever before as he constantly rehashes the 2020 election and the J6 stuff has only harmed him further.
Mark my words, He is a guaranteed loss in 2024.
It is time to look to the future and not try to futilely replay the old hits of the past.
It is time for new leadership in 2024.
Not the ravings of a 78 year old incompetent arrogant old man.
If you want a shot at winning 2024 Trump is not the guy.
If you want to certainly lose 2024 and then complain how everything sucks and everything is unfair then Trump is your guy.
Who is the guy? Right now I personally think it is Ron DeSantis but I am open to anyone new who is willing to fight competently to advance the right and be capable of winning.
I wouldn't be posting the stupid stuff Trump says on here if he would just stop saying stupid stuff all the time.
I am so sick and tired of Trump and I am utterly disappointed by all the people who actually want this guy of all people to run again.
It is long past the time for to him to hang it up and enjoy his retirement. He brings nothing to the table but pettiness, resentment and incompetence at this point.
This man is going to keep being an obnoxious liar till the primaries are finally over in 1.5 years.
Hopefully he will be retired by the primary GOP electorate.
If we are all unlucky and he becomes the GOP nominee again then he will be utterly humilated by the general electorate when he suffers the worst GOP loss since 2008.
This is a Orange Man is a retard post.
Bryan Cranston has always played beta men.
Walter White was literally cucked by Skyler. Remember that she fucked Ted.
I also wish he would shut up and just go away.
Only good news is that it is looking more and more likely that DeSantis can beat the current Trump in a primary.
Trump 2024 has been off to a complete dogshit launch.
The current version of Trump would have probably lost to HRC.
Like what the hell is he even doing?
You are not an American so why don't you sit the fuck down in promoting Trump 2024 to people who actually voted for Trump in 2016/2020.
The issue here is that Lindsey Graham is not just a regular neo-con. He is arguably the worst Senator in the GOP caucus. Graham is also absolutely reviled by most of Trump's base. Bringing Lindsey up on stage in his first campaign event represents spitting in the face of his own base.
Yes RDS will be forced to make a broad coalition which will include some neocons sure but I am sure he won't be picking Lindsey Graham as his close friend.
RDS's neocon liaison will likely be someone like Tom Cotton in the Senate and Mike Garcia in the House.
Cotton and Garcia are both neocons with regards to foreign policy but they both have solid domestic policy of stopping wokeness, stopping illegal immigration and protecting the second amendment.
Lindsey Graham is awful on pretty much all of the major issues. The only thing he is conservative on is abortion and he purposely helped sink recent GOP midterm prospects with that stupid nationwide abortion bill.
Graham is an absolute cancer. Trump manages to find the worst neo-con in the Senate and he constantly touts him as one of his inner circle.
That is what I take issue with.
There is nothing good about this RINO.
Out of the current 49 senators in the GOP caucus, it can be argued that Lindsey Graham is the single absolute worst Senator.
He has voted yes on appointing more Dem judges than any other GOP senator. He has praised and defended the incumbent POTUS honor more than any other GOP senator.
He is the most prolific neo-con in the Senate and that is a big achievement considering how many actual neo-cons there are in the Senate.
Trump actually believes this guy is his friend and he constantly promotes him.
There is no tolerable justification for any of this. This is not 4d chess. This is not about building a big tent. This is called being an absolute idiot at personnel selection.
Lindsey Graham is cunning. He didn't bend his knee. He found an easy way to get what he wants and he can constantly undermine populism by doing the costless action of being a sychophant.
Sucking upto Trump has given him more power than he ever had. What a fucking mess.
Lindsey Graham has discovered the cheat code to thrive as a neocon in a more populist GOP.
He has learned that Trump will blindly promote any GOP politician who constantly sucks up to him.
Trump sadly doesn't care at all about advancing the legislative goals of the America first movement or about vetting the ideological background of the people who make up his inner circle. All that matters is whether the individual brown-noses him.
He chooses to surround himself with only sycophants many of whom only feign love to him.
Guys like Lindsay Graham don't even like Trump, they pretend to suck up to him in order to advance their goals which are completely counter to all of the people who voted for Trump.
As I previously expected, Trump has not improved at all in selecting personnel. He is still surrounding himself with the worst people who will do nothing but undermine his agenda and hate his base.
Lindsey fucking Graham in the first rally? Trump 2024 is looking much worse than Trump 2020.
Trump's whole shtick in 2016 was "draining the swamp". He promised to change Washington D.C. and not just conduct business as usual.
That was his main appeal.
From 2017-2020, He failed in draining the swamp because he trusted and hired the wrong people.
Did he learn from his mistakes? No! He is now trying to prop up the people who constantly betrayed his supporters like Ronna McDaniel.
These are the people who undermined his legislative agenda. What does he do? He actually whips votes for them.
Trump is essentially going "we love our swamp, don't we folks?" with his congratulations to Ronna.
There is no 4d chess bullshit here.
Trump is a big part of the GOP establishment he pretends to rail against.
What the fuck is this deranged schizoposting?
The only swamp Trump will drain is the wallets of his devoted supporters.
What a grifting piece of shit who has the audacity to pretend he is anti-establishment.
Pedro Gonzales has the best take on what just happened.

He won't change at this point.
He will continue doing the same thing he was doing before which is propping up people who betray him later and still complaining impotently about the 2020 election.
Well when you have Trump whipping votes for Ronna McDaniel, this is what happens.
Meanwhile in 2023, NYT is much more likely to call out people trying to hold big pharma accountable.
You guys are engaging in actual racism and I think it is self-defeating and stupid.
Harmeet Dhillon has actually achieved some good results for the right. She is not like the average minority Tory in Britain. She is no globalist like Rishi Sunak.
Ronna McDaniel and Mitch McConnell are both White and yet what have they ever done for the right?
The only choice for RNC chair is between Harmeet Dhillon and Ronna McDaniel.
I think it is worth giving Dhillon a shot at least.
No one knows what will exactly happen tomorrow at this point.
Harmeet Dhillon has gotten some momentum for sure but will it be enough to stop Ronna who has the backing of the GOP establishment?
Hard to say.
She definitely has some great ideas.
I hope Harmeet Dhillon wins tomorrow despite Trump and the GOP establishment desperately trying to save Ronna behind the scenes.
Ronna McDaniel is a proven loser. We lost three election cycles with her at the helm.
Harmeet Dhillon has been successful in legal cases for conservative causes and she has been successful in utilizing ballot harvesting in CA to get some GOP House members from California elected.
Something must change if we want to actually win again.
Taking a chance with Harmeet is much better than staying with Ronna.
We desperately need change at the RNC leadership if we want a shot at winning elections in the future.
Ronna has definitely got to go. You would think Trump would kick Ronna McDaniel out since he is running again in 2024 and we would think that he would want the best shot at winning the 2024 race.
Yet that is not the case sadly.
Trump claimed he was staying neutral in the race yet he openly endorsed Ronna's right hand man for co-chair signalling that he was for Ronna.

Trump's campaign advisors Chris LaCivita and Susie Wiles are currently whipping votes for Ronna McDaniel.
https://twitter.com/jdawsey1/status/1618777964069654530?cxt=HHwWhMDQ6en-hvcsAAAA
So why is Trump backing Ronna even though we have lost three election cycles with her at the helm?
Well it seems Ronna McDaniel has been using RNC funds to pay for Trump's legal fees.
What a fucking disappointment that Trump is fighting for the status quo instead of new blood that is needed to win.
If we get lucky tomorrow and Ronna McDaniel is somehow ousted it will be despite Trump's efforts to save her.
Trump rails against the GOP establishment verbally while his actions sadly show a different story.
Katie Porter first announced a little while ago, now Adam Schiff announced today.
Barbara Lee and Ro Khanna are certainly going to to announce their runs next.
Feinstein might even run again.
Out of all the options who could run, Ro Khanna is probably the most tolerable option.
Since California is a titanium blue state, all I hope for is that Khanna somehow clutches the win.
This level of actual cultism is nauseating.
I have never seen this in-bred clown till today.
Who is this retard?
