AZ was the bellwether state for Trump in 2022 and Tuesday was a disaster for Rep.
Yes, there were screw-ups but there's no cheating regardless of the Blake Masters says.
Now if Trump does decide to run he's going to need to seriously rethink this business of 2020 being stolen. He's got to take the "election-denier" tag off the table. Trumps needs to eat crow and say, "Yes, Biden is the legitimate the president" and stop taking about 2020.
A complete about face by Trump might work.
He'll never do it. A narcissist is incapable of admitting that HE is wrong - everyone ELSE is wrong.
How about just "ok, this is the straw that broke the camel's back"?
I mean, at some point if you're going to stay behind an egomaniacal narcissist, you're either going to see the light in what Trump actually cares about, or you're going to show yourself to be an ignoramus or admit you're one of the bad people (racist or white supremacist).
This is not exactly what broke the camel's back, at least for me.
I was an enthusiastic supporter, during the 2016 primaries. Finally, I had a candidate that was talking about the issues I cared about.
The first year was great! We had tax cuts and part of an immigration solution.
Then, he signed the first budget, and I did a facepalm! No cuts of any kind, in fact, I believe it grew slightly.
Then, Covid relief after Covid relief was signed into law, and my support was waning. While I would have enthusiastically voted for President Trump, in 2016, should I have been old enough, I was far less enthusiastic about my vote for him, in 2020. I could not bear the though of voting for Joe Biden, though I did entertain the thought, for a little while, hoping he would at least be a moderate, but I was smart enough to realize that would likely not be the case.
I do not solely blame President Trump for the Capitol riot, as those criminals did act upon their own freewill.
I, also, do not solely blame President Trump for the midterm loses. He did little to campaign, though he did endorse many candidates. There is no sole reason to explain the GOP's midterm losses. It was a culmination of things.
But, going after Governor's DeSantis and Youngkin, two politicians I greatly support, when there is not even a primary, combined with everything else, has killed my support of Former President Trump.
His base can't see that this ripping on other republican politicians is counterproductive and only serves to fracture the party. They want their vaccinated, boosted orange man in the while house, while they shake their fists at the sky about vaccines being a depopulation plot. I can't believe I almost got in with this crowd for awhile.
Good post above mine. Read it.^^^^ Remember OP that most posters here are MMTers who want pumped up stock market and asset bubbles with unlimited QE and zero interest rates. That's the "good times" for them even if it brings inflation. Republicans talk big on cutting spending but they are NOT fiscal conservatives.
TDS much prefers pedophilia in the White House to someone that says, “sounds Chinese”.
Got it. I and millions will vote for “Sounds Chinese” while millions of others will vote for inflation, more illegals, more homeless, more violent crime, and senile pedophiles.

Today's GOP would do well to relearn Ronald Reagan's Eleventh Commandment. "Thou shalt not speak ill of any fellow Republican." They lived by this rule for a long time and it served them well.
Then along came Trump...
Of course, one could argue whether or not Trump is really a Republican. He doesn't seem to support the party much beyond himself.

I didn’t vote for the party. I voted for Trump and will again. The party didn’t want Trump in 2016. They wanted another RINO.
Idiots are more concerned with “sounds Chinese” than inflation, violent crime, and illegals.
because he is a winning Republican in a Blue state?
