Here’s the thing, I am not voting for anyone in a primary endorsed by Donald Trump. I do not want any of his endorsed candidates winning, not because I disagree with their politics or proposed policies, but because I want the Republican Party to move on. Donald Trump is poison to the Republican Party in a general election and if he gets the nomination for president it is probably the only chance Democrats have of winning in 2024. We already have a Democratic Senate right now because of Donald Trump.
I am rooting for Lisa Murkowski, whoever is running against Mo Brooks, and Brian Kemp, among others. The only exception is Liz Cheney because she let Nancy Pelosi claim to have a bipartisan committee when she does not. But, I want people like Lindsey Graham to stop pushing that Donald Trump must lead my party or it is going to stop being my party. I already can no longer watch certain shows on FOX because I cannot stand the Trump butt kissing.
I will say again, as I always do when I go on one of these rants, I am not alone.

But in an interview with The Washington Examiner on Tuesday, Trump said he was "disappointed" in Brooks's comments last August about the 2020 election. Brooks said at the time that voters should put 2020 behind them and look forward to the upcoming election cycles.
THAT is what is killing Brooks. He thinks we should be a stolen election behind us and since then his support has evaporated! I hope he drops out if he is gonna drag down the only other decent candidate, we do NOT want Britt in there she is just a neocon lackey.

Exactly. You can't be a little bit pregnant. He wanted to keep one foot in and one foot out to test the waters.
Anyone who thinks Trump is not the head of the Republican party should consider Trump got 59% of the straw poll vote for presidential nominee in 2024. Almost twice what DeSantis received. No one else was close. A Trump/DeSantis ticket is the way to go, and the Republicans only chance at winning back the White House in 2024.

Ted Cruz won the CPAC straw poll in 2016 with 40%. Previous 3 years Rand Paul won. I would not put too much weight in that.

YES! What I agree with all of this except the part of Cheney- I like her; she is one of the few that had the nuts to stand up to that guy.
