I actually want him as the nominee,a guaranteed L,if not his ego won't allow him to bow out and throw his support to any adversary,no convictions till the election is a sure way to keep the Whitehouse,however if the Reps. continue their ineptitude in the house and it is a complete shit show all the way to the election then I'm more than OK w/Mr. Orange going down prior to 2024.

Joe would like Trump to run from his cell, because that's where he will be come nomination time!
A lot of the congressional assholes might be timed to go down in 2024, an election year, this is political as well as legal, you will never get full justice or a solution otherwise.Let's hope,the next 2 yrs. are going to be a ride.Joe would like Trump to run from his cell, because that's where he will be come nomination time!

Joe, Nancy and Mitch took the car keys away for almost a year and in a year I figure you will have a much different situation with ongoing trials and congress people sweating about indictments. Kevin's (or whoever's) razor thin margin will get thinner, Santos looks gone pretty quick. As I keep saying, a lot depends on the gospel of Mark, he squeals on everybody, or he gets crucified.
Hope there are a lot of "special elections" in the house and senate resulting from the resign or face being indited ultimatums given to these parasites.A bar has to set here and this behavior can't become "the norm" as the example it sets will be damning for generations of politics in America to come,perish the thought.

I think a rougher ride than many republicans realize, 2023 will be a year of indictments and trials, with the head chopped off the snake Trump as the first act. They are gonna be riding a mean bull with a bad case of hemorrhoids and some of those roids are gonna be bleeding soon enough.

A better idea imo:
the Republicans nominate a post-orange right-winger who is not a traveling shitshow like Gan or Pedo.
Someone who has dissociated his political identity from That Man, but has kept the basic maga platform (racism, sexism, disastrous immigration and economic policy etc.) intact but is successfully rebranding it.
Someone genuinely dangerous. DeSantis or Gosar or … I woulda added McCarthy, but he doesn’t look like a contender any longer.
And then gets trounced in the election along with the legislative horsemen of the magacalypse.
We need a rout of the red hats at the polls, and if a rolling thunder campaign of indictments takes place over the next year, we might get that.

Ya might need to prepare the ground for victory first though by winning it all in 2024 and then introducing legislative changes like HR1 voting rights and other changes to level the playing field and control domestic terrorism. Domestic terrorism is one of their instruments and they have used it repeatedly, not just on J6, but in state capitols too. So win the in 2024 while many republicans are in prison or on the way. Whatever scum floats to the top of the GOP will have to be dealt with then, I doubt it will be Trump, he will have other obligations.

Giuliani subpoenaed amid special counsel investigation into Trump’s fundraising
General Zod ( jack smith ) zeros in on Rudy Ghouliani
Taken together, the subpoenas demonstrate prosecutors’ growing interest in following the money after the 2020 election as part of their sweeping criminal probe around Trump’s efforts to overturn his loss of the presidency.
Save America was part of broader fundraising efforts by Trump and the Republican Party that raised more than $250 million after the election. Since then, the political action committee has compensated several lawyers who now represent Trump and his allies in January 6-related investigations.
The subpoenas to other witnesses in addition to Giuliani were sent in late December, according to the other sources.
The information the prosecutors seek is still being collected, the sources said. With Giuliani, the investigators have prioritized getting financial information from him, one person said.
The inquiry to Giuliani came from David Rody, a former top prosecutor in New York who specializes in gang and conspiracy cases and is assisting Smith with examining a broader criminal conspiracy after the election, according to some of the sources.
In response to being informed of CNN’s reporting on Giuliani’s subpoena and asked for a statement, Ted Goodman, his adviser, said, “The mayor is unaware of the specific claims by this so-called ‘anonymous source,’ and therefore is not in position to respond.”

Fascism depends upon one leader who is elevated into "hero" status and is immune from laws. DeSantis was successful in FL because he was able to get women to his side with CRT and grooming stories. The women give credibility to ugly campaigns. His wife even dresses like Jackie-O while he portrays himself as a top-gun hero. They will both be wearing halos soon. Now he's testing the limits of FL and federal laws while attacking the press, businesses, and academia. It's like watching someone following the Recipe to Dictatorship.
What I find interesting is how this will transition from Trump to a probable DeSantis (IMO). Are small donors going to be that eager with DeSantis? I can't see big donors risking much on Trump any longer either.

Wire fraud is a bitch too and will take down even more of his minions.Bannon is facing fraud charges in NY, the same ones Trump pardoned him for. State time is much harder than federal and Stevo's next drink after conviction might be brewed in his cell toilet.

Opinion | Donald Trump just keeps losing
Kevin McCarthy's speaker debacle capped a very bad week for the brooding ex-president. And it extends a yearslong streak that may finally have broken his hold on the GOP.
"But this is the problem with perpetual outrage movements. They can be easily stoked and exploited, but they are almost impossible to shut down, because their appetite for anger, anarchy and chaos is bottomless. And if they can’t find sufficient targets of outrage on the outside, they inevitably turn against one another. As I wrote in the Bulwark this week, the MAGA movement’s only real connective tissue was anger, self-promotion, grift and cultish fluffery. Take away the cult leader and you get the chaos we saw this week, as crackpots fought with nihilists, wingnuts pointed fingers at extremists and grifters started slap-fights with one another".

Ronnie got almost 600K less votes than he did four years ago. He lulled the progressives to sleep with Charlie.

GOP in peril: 'Bizarro world' attacks pit Murdoch vs. MAGA
67,434 views Jan 10, 2023 #msnbc #gop #brazil
The new GOP-led House has republicans fixating on the mantra of "defund!" This push is hitting traditionally popular planks in the GOP platform -- like a strong military and strong homeland security. Some Republicans are pushing to defund the IRS. MSNBC's Ari Melber reports on why the GOP is in "Groucho Marx territory" and is joined by political strategist Chai Komanduri.

We were flooded with DeSantis ads. It was obnoxious. Crist was a terribly weak choice. I saw zero ads for Crist, even on YouTube. I saw a few tweets. That's it.

They literally thrive on chaos. The Congressional whackos capitalize on chaos. Defunding HHS to improve it is a believable concept for MAGA and they will blame Biden/Dems when matters get worse even as the GOP publicly stated during the mid-term campaign that they will not allow immigration legislation. The MAGATS don't give these illogical, irrational maneuvers one second of thought. They'll just get angrier at the other side for being opposed to GOP ideas. They will view it as Dem obstructionism and they will stay tuned to Fox.
DiSantis makes me sguemish,just plain creepy,I've read that his strategy in running for Pres. is going to include running interference on media coverage,in other words instead of rival media in attendance and labeling them "fake news",his model will have no rival or impartial press and media allowed to cover his events,cultism in the house.
