Jeopardy format in honor of Alex Trebek, whose last show aired on Friday.

A: Trump, Cruz, Hawley

Q: Of whom are the Democrats most afraid?


They are letting you know whom they fear, and are actively attempting to define them negatively and/or neutralize them in whatever way possible.

They fear them because they have the position and the guts to possibly galvanize 75 million people who voted for Trump.

He isn't a martyr. He is the president of the United States who is leading a cold civil war against his own federal gov.

I'm not a poll guy, but ran across this to buttress your point.

It seems more like a cold civil war is actually being waged against Trump support. Who are the voices that are continually being silenced? You don’t make such an effort to silence that which isn’t a threat.

Few people are concerned about Cruz or Hawley. Neither of them are charismatic enough to have a hold on as many people as Trump. And even with his charisma, Trump still couldn't win the election.

If Trump is impeached and convicted (which is a possibility), he won't be able to run for public office again.

I think Trump was popular enough to win the election...by every metric ever used to tracking elections, the bellwether counties, the states, etc. he was bound to be the winner. He's the only sitting POTUS in modern times who got MORE votes the second term than the first as well. Weird that he didn't win isn't it?

And why wouldn't he be able to run again? He's already been impeached once. There's hardly time for that dog and pony show anyway, unless Dems REALLY hate Americans and will waste even more of our time on petty "revenge" for winning in 2016 and being more popular than them. Well that and ruining their long term plans

Whoever runs — I doubt it will be without Trump’s blessing. Trump’s approval would instantly fire up at least 70 million voters who will now be on defense against American communism.

He got more votes than any other past president. Not even close...

That's because Trump is sucking up all of the oxygen right now. That won't be the case down the road. Those two have at least shown they won't be compliant to the Swamp as most of the other Republicans.

People want the government to represent THEM - not to other entities or themselves.

What you think doesn't matter.

Only facts matter. And the facts tell us that Trump is a loser.
