    You think they don't know that if he anoints jr?
    Trump did it already
    When is the deadline?
    I don't see Trump actually wanting to do it again but I don't see him wanting anyone else to become president because he's so filled with rage and vindictiveness and wants that ultimate power back.
    Plus he's dumb enough to think it solves all his legal woes for at least 6 yrs.
    Junior would be his only solution and he can move right in the WH and start his **** all over again.

    I’m a hell of a sandwich maker. I take my time and ensure even distribution of ingredients.

    Looks like video went private when he started speaking because reports were yapping at Mar a Lago.
    I think you had to have made a contribution to be able to watch it .
    There was a fundraiser for MaL on his social page today about a big announcement; tonight.

    The scene at Mar-a-Lago tonight seems less of a who’s-who of Republican politics and more of a who-was, with an audience that includes Representative Madison Cawthorn of North Carolina, who lost a primary challenge, and a number of former Trump White House aides. Mike Lindell, the MyPillow C.E.O., is also here.

    It's possible, just not probable. But the Qnon were spreading that idea around the internet and has gotten traction. But it is all moot now. McCarthy won 181-33. And that can spell doom for any GOP idea of going far right on the GOP agenda such as impeachment or investigations for anything and everything.

    LOL, I am still waiting for the FBI official report. I suspect Hunter will be charged under 26 USC 7202 and related federal crimes, but we will see how much, if any, what the laptop has to do with it.

    I never said Trump would/can transfer anything.
    I said he'll "anoint" junior.

    Easy Peasy Junior files then just announces he's running..LOL

    "Former President Trump filed federal paperwork on Tuesday declaring his 2024 campaign for president, moments before he was expected to make a formal announcement at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida."

    Despite everything, I do expect him to be the Republican nominee for president, but if he doesn't get the nominee as a Republican, I would expect him to run as third party candidate. Previous one term presidents have stepped aside to allow someone else to run, for the benefit of their party, but Trump does not carry those same motives

    Although long forgotten, the winner of the 1964 New Republican Hampshire Primary was Henry Cabot Lodge. He wasn’t even on the ballot and won with a write-in vote. The gay who really wanted the Republican primary that year was Barry Goldwater. Goldwater got crushed in the general election which could be a warning to Biden.

    I can’t believe that Biden will waltz to the 2024 Democrat nomination with his high negatives. Time is only going to make him more incoherent. If he does run, he might be surprised at what happens to him. Jim Clyburn might endorse him again, but it won’t work this time. q

    Funny, I though that Lindell was thought to a Republican.

    Biden running again will be a joke

    Problem the dems have is, I don't see any viable candidates. Some are saying Newsom. but he would be a disaster too

    Yep, Trump is going to be a pain in the butt for Republicans and the nation, until he’s drooling and drinking his dinner with a straw. I totally expect him to run as a third party candidate if the Republicans don’t nominate him. It will be out of spite.

    Those are all Trump possibilities but I just don't see him having it in him to go all the way as a candidate.
    Plus he has absolutely nothing new to offer America, it's all about him personally.
    Same old **** is what;s being reported tonight plus it was a fast put together by Jason Miller...OMG_LOL

    ~ At this point I will believe anything .
    I still believe that Hillary is waiting in the wings ...
    ~ Yes , no doubt Newsom would like to run. The problem is he is not black, not non-binary, and does not have dementia. No qualifications at this point.

    I don't think that there is any chance she runs if Biden for some (hopefully) reason did not

    She already lost to Trump. 6 years has not made her less disliked

    It would be funny if Biden didn't take New Hampshire and
    Chris Sununu didn't say Trump is "f*cking crazy".

    Example #1 - Roe v Wade

    Very little but not enough to swing an election in this cycle.

    Example #2 - Donald Trump

    You're barking up the wrong tree....you've taken the liberal media and RINO swamp rat bait.

    Example #3 - Alienating the voters who didn't vote for you

    Amounts to a popcorn fart.

    The real reason the red wave flopped is because the RINO swamp rats in DC f**ked over good conservative candidates that they knew wouldn't support the swamp in DC. Case in point, Bitch McConnell withholding funds in several Senate races and throwing money at Murkowski in Alaska (who endorses and votes with Democrats but will vote for Mitch as Senate leader) against another republican candidate. Ronna McDaniel is a pathetic waste as well. The RNC should be called the RINO National Committee.

    Real republicans have to run against Democrats and the RINOS. Not an easy task given the filth currently leading the GOP.
