Trump showed Republicans the way, and the old do-nothin' feckless Republican is now dead to Americans. Cheney, Romney, etc..., these politicians are indistinguishable from establishment Democrats. They are all the same uni-party. I'm thinking you guys will start the same sort of purge after the 2022 and 2024 blow out

His accomplishments (and there have been a few) does not make up for the danger to our country this man carries around with him. He's an albatross around the country's neck. He has rightly been accused of obstruction of justice, bribery, conspiracy to defraud the US, campaign finance violations, hatch Act violations, trying to meddle with the outcome of the election by inducing a Georgia official to add votes to his count: "Come on, guys I only need 1100 votes..."

Trump asked Georgia secretary of state to 'find' 11.7k ballots, recalculate election result

Maybe one day trump worshipers will wake up to the fact Trump doesn't care about any of you. He's only using you all as a tool to further his own selfish agenda of using the Presidency to make money, to stay out of prison and to exact revenge on all who dared to stand in his way.

No, of course you wouldn't--if someone were speaking against your cult leader. But people outside the cult can see what I am talking about when I compare Trump to cult figures like Jones and Manson.

You had me all the way until you didn't finish your sentence with Dr. Fauci.

But that was before the Democrats became the Party of War, Medical Tyranny, High Crime, Spiraling Inflation, Open Borders, Woke Dictates - and the Republicans became the party of individual freedom, prosperity and security.


Try and put lipstick on that pig all ya like, but this is objectively true.

So you got behind a corrupt crumb like Donald trump because of the Democrats' corruption?????? Why couldn't you get behind someone decent like Colin Powell?

Great example of TDS, you realize the Washington Post had to issue a correction because they lied about the contents of Trump's call, right?

Trump actually does care about Americans, more broadly about America. This comes through in all his rallies. Of course he cares more about himself, and he's most likely a sociopath, but the fact remains was that this was the only kind of personality that could ever have broken the barriers he did.

Only someone who has absolutely no effect from people's criticisms and says anything he wants and hell bent on winning could have defeated the Republican and Democrat machine. He failed to defeat the administrative state but I have a feeling if he gets back in he's going to take a bulldozer to the Federal government and I really hope he does

The Administrative State needs to go

Yep, both groups are still primarily Israel-first, America-last.

Decent like Colin Powell: The guy who knowingly lied to the United Nations on live TV that the CIA had hard evidence of Iraqi Weapons of Mass Destruction?


Those last four words will go down in History with great ignominy, just like the great Brandon.

Malignant narcissistic traits

What Are the Signs of a Malignant Narcissist?
  • They Use, Abuse, & Discard People. ...
  • They Are Obsessed With Power. ...
  • Everything Is Personal for Them. ...
  • They Hold Grudges & Take Revenge. ...
  • They Take Pleasure From the Suffering of Others. ...
  • Nothing Is Ever Their Fault. ...
  • They Are Ruthless in Their Pursuit of What They Want.

Trump fits all these characteristics and yet you would still get behind this man because he's the only Repub who can sir up so much controversy???? I hear it....and it flummoxes the bejeezus out of me.

Which is a completely comical and asinine comparison for the fact that Jones was a known and self-described atheist Socialist Democrat that espoused the ideals of Carl Marx and was in cahoots with a myriad of Democrat politicians and groups during his meteoric rise. If anything Democrats cult worship of the Obamas is closer to the People's Temple than any other political faction.

Takedown par excellence.
