    Boehner says 'unemployed' Trump 'has nothing else to do' but 'cause trouble'
    Former President Trump has been sending out his opinions on various subjects since Biden too office. It's hard to know how widespread they are since Trump has been banned from several social media sites.

    Traditionally, former Presidents do not comment on their successor's actions but we all know Trump isn't big on tradition. Nevertheless, Boehner's comment seem equally petty.

    What do you think?

    Boehner's trying to reclaim the spotlight and hell, traditional conservatives are trying to reclaim a footing in political Washington but it won't work because the people know traditional conservatives have failed the union. As have the Democrats in my view.

    I think we're ever closer to a third party winning an election in my lifetime as an American.

    We saw how the Democrats and insider Republicans undermined Trump at every turn, so can you imagine the bloodbath inflicted on a third party or "Independent" president? :machinegun:

    I suspect you are right. It makes no sense for Trump to say that he isn't starting his own party as it would only divide the conservative vote but he doesn't hesitate to lambast other Republicans at every possible term.

    A third party as a frontrunner sounds hopeful. Probably not likely, but even a glimmer of hope is welcome in this regard.

    It won't be easy, that's for sure. I fear a civil war is coming.

    That's why a RECORD! 23 Million Guns were purchased in 2020 and it's not slowing down in 2021.

    Nah.

    There WON'T be any kind of a "Civil War".

    So, no worries.

    In any event, Boehner is spot-on.

    Trump is a Disruptive Imbecile (with nothing to do but cause trouble).

    You and your ilk didn't care what Boehner had to say when he was in office.

    Why do you (And your ilk) care now?

    Trump does not rely on others to be "employed".

    What a stupid comment by Boehner.

    I have no "ilk". Period.

    So?
    Why do you keep (repeatedly) making such misguided assertions and mischaracterizations?

    Not a good look.:bored:

    I NEVER Cared about what Trump had to say.

    His Pathetic Brain Diarrhea (to me) was never worth taking seriously.

    To me, Trump was always a Braindead Mistakenly-Elected Imbecile (that America had to put up with for 4 years).

    But, by all means, feel free to keep defending Trump.

    Now, back to the OP Topic (and Boehner), he gave a real good interview on Colbert last night:

    I'm not so sure. People are pretty riled up over the economy, vaccines, lock downs, etc. Some are getting into fights over bumper stickers. It's crazy. My neighbor was just complaining this morning that our grocery shelves are practically bare.

    I HOPE we don't get to that point but I don't know.

    If I was as rich as Trump, I wouldn't ever think of politics again. The rest of my life would be spent wandering the world and experiencing all of its different places and cultures. I can't begin to understand the mindset of wealthy politicians. I could see if they were actively trying to make the world a better place, but I'm betting very few politicians are in office out of the goodness of their hearts. It looks a lot more like endless hunger for wealth and power. But who knows, maybe some are genuinely good people, there for selfless reasons. Maybe.

    The TDS imbeciles and their ilk can't ignore President Trump if they tried to.

    For many, hating Trump was the high water mark of their life.

    What does Boehner do these days?

    Is he some sort of decerebrate lobbyist?

    Doesn't that require some sort of employer?

    Does he still ball like a baby at the drop of a hat?

    I think for someone suffering TDS it is an adrenalin rush.

    Yes a narcissist might see it that way. Think of it this way.....Some who gain their wealth outside of politics, have found that the life you describe is fruitless in the end. Most, like Trump have experienced that. Instead they truly want to give back to the Nation that made it all possible. However, beware of the sneaky lawyer who enters politics to come away rich!

    Boehner’s self-awareness isn’t too strong.

    Yeah... if you believe Trump is in politics out of the goodness of his heart, I’ve got a bridge that I can give you a great price on...
