Or maybe Trump is just positioning. We all know that Trump hates weakness. Perhaps the fair weather Republican is just positioning himself to a return to being a fair weather Democrat. Not sure how successful Trump would be in returning to the Democratic party again any longer... probably less successful than he was before. But always good to leave the doors open I guess.

The big problem is the Rinos such as Mitch put party image above ideology. This is evident by Mitch"s words and actions. McConnell is so self righteous it is sickening.... always criticizing Trump for his tweets and overly protective of what HE THINKS the Republican party should be. He is so far off base Mitch can't see the forest for the trees. Mitch does more harm than good for the party.


Always dictating what he thinks is right and he is the most self righteous Rino than most.


Just imagine Pelosi criticizing Biden . well , she doesn't because Nancy doesn't care what Biden says or does , they stick together no matter how corrupt they are . There is no image of the democrat party.. they are full out socialist marxists and support BLM and Antifa. They want them to riot. There is no criticism at all . "They blatantly lie, use every trick in the book and deny deny deny.


This is the lefts strategy to move inch by inch to socialism. Now Mitch is too self righteous to allow anyone to say something mean . He never attacks the left for their lies.


Mitch is playing soft ball with the democrats while the democrats are in a full out war with a whole arsenal and using every thing they have in it to destroy the Republicans. The democrats are in slaughter mode against the Republicans while the Rinos are attacking their own party.

Did he crack the 35% approval rating while we wasn't looking?

I agree.

They are too busy just placating their big corporate donor base. If they had any stones at all would take the temperature of the country and take some decisive actions.

They are either too afraid to nut up or are simply hoping the Dims hang themselves with their crappy left leaning lurch.

Either way, not good.

That's why I like DeSantis. He's a no nonsense guy, works to get things done and has a lot of the same type of traits as Trump without as much baggage.

Trump was his own worst enemy in some ways. I liked his telling it like it is approach, but he sometimes got caught up too much in the petty stuff. It was like he didn't know what battles to really pick.

Trumps scared. The commission would be just one more risk of facing criminal charges. Trump thinks he can block it all via either court delay or making it political.

I guess you haven't noticed that the Republicans are destroying each other. The Trump clan against the ones with the brains.

If the Democrats weren’t infinitely worse, I’d quit the Republican Party for good. But since I’m basically a guy without a party, I have no choice but to consider Republicans, i.e. the lesser of two evils approach.
America first is just a campaign phrase without substance, manufacturing declined and the trade deficit overall increased. The presidency is not about catchy phrases, it's about hard work and compromise. I give Trump credit for taking on China but I just don't see the that it really solved the problem.

Right now he is damaging not only the republican party but the entire country.

In response to you showing that Trump is popular among the 25% of the population that is the Republican base? I dont think they would say much to it at all? Its kinda the point-Trumps not popular much outside of that base.
