    @Vindibudd @Orange_and_Bluke, @tilly and others. This is what I have been telling you. I don’t ordinarily agree with this poster, but there is no party for traditional conservatives. Your party has been taken over. The choice you have to make is the same one Liz Cheney or Lindsey Graham made. I feel bad for you.

    What, pointing out there is a far right wing trump supporter? Shocking. Want me to point out the far lefties on here? Not hard to do.

    The problem with sitting out is the danger posed by Trump and his acolytes. There will be more like Trump. Until they are votes out and start losing. This isn’t a policy debate.

    I don’t think he can win again. He just cannot shut his mouth.
    If we can’t do better now, I’ll wait for a better candidate the subsequent election.

    Trump has no chance of winning. Too many people like you, Tilly and myself who won't consider voting for trump. DeSantis is the best chance for the Reps in 24. Honestly want trump indicted and out of the picture but I know that won't happen.

    I have never taken the Democrats' side on anything to be perfectly honest. Not being an Orange Cult Member does not make me a Democrat. This is not a zero sum game.

    Part of what he does is what he says. I get this all the time, "Don't take what he says seriously, take what he does seriously." Here's the problem, saying things that motivate people to come to DC and get themselves arrested and or shot dead FOR NO REASON is part of what he does. Incessantly obsessing about how "We can overturn the 2020 election by decertifying votes and hold a new random presidential election so that people can pick me" is pure lunacy and furthermore absolutely irresponsible and dangerous.

    THIS DOES NOT MAKE ME A FAN OF USEFUL IDIOT LIZ CHENEY OR NANCY PELOSI.


    You missed crushing it with Supreme Court nominations. This is all beside the point. The fact of the matter is he is not just "only" being an ass on social media, he is now advocating clearly dangerous and legally impossible things that fly in the face of the Constitution and if you don't think his political opponents will use that to great effect then you are not paying enough attention.

    Donald Trump makes me wish I could use profanity on Gator Country.

    Should Trump be the 24 nominee, complicity is the same as participation. A vote for anyone other than Trump or no participation may as well be a D vote.

    Thanks on SCOTUS. We can add energy independence and a better less regulated business environment too.

    Hypocritical much when we are confronted with the unconstitutionality of the Biden Administration and the democrats.

    Take your ball home and don't play. You'll be worse off for it which will be evident long before 2024 and likely starting tonight with Dictator Biden's hate speech in Philadelphia.

    I still don't believe he's running. If he does, without any doubt he would get my vote over any liberal.

    So, if Trump did get the nomination and was up against Biden, Harris Etc, you wouldn't vote?

    I actually agree with you on this, but if he does, he's getting my vote for sure

    Given his narcissistic personality disorder Trump will almost certainly run. He's already hinted at another run multiple times and the search at Mar-a-Lago has given him an additional incentive considering the way members of his cult have rallied around him. He lives for the adoration at his MAGA rallies and he's not going to give that up. Just my opinion but the only way that Trump doesn't run is if he negotiates an agreement with Ron DeSantis in which Trump agrees to endorse DeSantis in exchange for the promise of a blanket pardon similar to that issued by Gerald Ford on behalf of then former President Richard Nixon.

    November 3, 2020 was not voter fraud. It was a coup. Trump won in a landslide. It's coming.
