I got to see the GOP establishment campaign machinery up close during this election

If you’re a RINO, you get the campaign funding

If you’re MAGA, they don’t even return your calls

RINO leadership intentionally sabotaged the Red Wave to hurt Trump and the MAGA faithful

Don’t let them twist what actually happened

lol, or is Desanctimonious gonna be the new Mussolini for the MAGA morons?
We need biff to hang around for just 2 more years. He's gotta keep his knuckledragging minions engaged until the '24 election or when he goes to jail, whichever comes first.

Always fun to get the 70 year old hippie wannabe knuckledraggers together to circle jerk about the "dumb" opposition.

That’s just a lie. Trump endorsed Oz, Vance, and Walker. The GOP put a combined $128mil in those races.

You are correct but I also think it is a bit overstated that the election was a repudiation of Trump because in a lot of house and senate races the GOP votes for the GOP candidates was much higher when Trump was on the ticket nationally.

I think Mastriano and Oz were awful candidates. Bad bad decisions by Trump. I think Donald had a few wins and a few losses last night but I think the GOP suffered because of turnout fall off in many places.

Walker might win, but a better candidate would have won outright.

In Trump country, the Trump endorsement means a win. In statewide elections, his endorsement has proven to be a hurdle.

Totally agree. He needs to learn where he is effective and where he needs to avoid. He won't. That is my biggest issue with Trump as a politician.

Best thing that happened to the GOP in 2016. More effective in defeating Reps than any Dem ever since.

Paul Ryan, Karl Rove, Mitt Romney, Liz Cheney, Mitch McConnell, Kevin McCarthy, and Ronna McDaniel

People, including Ted Cruz, were complaining that Trump wasn’t providing any of his PAC funds to his candidates, so he probably deserves some of the blame.

Trump is already saying if DeSantis runs in 2024, then he would release "things that won't be very flattering" about him. Interesting. Hopefully DeSantis calls his bluff. Obviously, the man is unhinged and as always.....blameless. Time for DeSantis to become the leader of the GOP.

My thoughts:

So, Trump wants everyone to believe that he knows derogatory information about DeSantis that the public doesn't know. Fine.......however.......wouldn't the public turn that around, once he states it, and ask Trump "then why did you support a guy with this horrible information that YOU WERE AWARE OF prior to his re-election?"

Not a sound move by Trump, in my honest opinion. It smells of a desperate and scared man.

EDIT: Also, he is not a Republican....he's an "opportunist". Saw an opening in 2015 and took it. If the opening had been on the Democrat side, he would have pursued it.
