If Trump is nominated I will vote for him, DeSantis will get my vote in the primary, the jabs are poison, Oz is a damn democrat, McCarthy is also a Democrat... Both Oz & McCarthy are/were never Trumpers... McCarthy is just Paul Ryans bathouse boy... DeSantis is going after the vax pushers, Trump is a vax pusher...

Complete trump voter here. He has taken 6 yrs of crap that anyone else would have quit taking within months from the onset. I think trump doesn’t have a handler or not a good handler. Trump is good when he makes good choices and bad when he makes bad choices. He needs a trusted person that can help him maneuver the in between. The question is… will he listen to advice?

I'd rather not have Trump as a 2024 candidate than have McCarthy as Speaker.

The NFT cards were an abysmal failure and insult. Now to support McCarthy who was caught talking to Madcow about “getting rid of Trump”, clinches my decision. I am now a never-trumper. He obviously cannot be depended upon to pick good people. He needs to pray for discernment.

I'm out. The GOP is dead. Time to go 3rd party. Yes we'll lose for a while, but if we actually STAND FOR SOMETHING we can win without the donor class and backstabbing RINOs. Let the GOPe have the GOP. Stop tainting our ideas with their feckless, underhanded, and unprincipled bullsh*t.

Trump's biggest short coming is his inability to judge the character of those he allows to influence him, and that is likely due to his arrogance.

Strike 1: "Terminate the Constitution"

Strike 2: Childish NFT cards that MAGA ppl fund embarrassing and "unpresidential"

Strike 3: failing to learn from past failure (Mitt Romney, Bill Barr, Dr. Oz) and supporting Paul Ryan Part 2 which is a slap in the face to real MAGA fighters in congress.

........ it's DeSantis turn at bat.

My support for Trump is wavering...voted for him twice, but I will echo my main reasons for wavering support:

- Continued support for the medical malpractice of pushing the Covid vaccine.

- Support for Dr Oz in PA

- The total carnival show of the Digital cards making him appear as a huckster - not a statesman.

- Support got McCarthy.

- Not a word of support for the illegally jailed Jan 6 defendants

I love Trump, but he has two serious flaws. First, his huge ego pulls him into petty fights that are a distraction and add no value. Second, he is unable to consistently judge the character and capabilities of his staff and partners. He is unable to distinguish between someone who is trustworthy versus a sycophant. For example, he mistakenly hired the questionable Amarosa and The Mooch, while also hiring highly capable Kudlow and Navarro. McCarthy is not as bad a McConnell, but he needs to step aside. McCarthy is a smoother version of Paul Ryan, which is not a compliment.

I’ve supported Trump from the get go. Lost lots of friends. I’m done. Just like the RINO’s, when push comes to shove Trump swims with the swamp. Both sides have taken us for a hell of a ride. No way is Trump this ignorant.

I can't believe all the miserable WHINERS that SNIVEL about this endorsement by Trump, including this author.

When people who call themselves conservatives can't get what they want, they start complaining like little girls?Some are even turning into never Trumpers and to me you are all DISGUSTING. Marjorie Taylor Greene is right, we have to back McCarthy because if we don't there is a great risk that R's will lose any or all leverage they have with their slim majority. End of Story.

I am so sick of WHINERS I could puke.

For God's sake, stop the infighting. Let President Trump make his endorsements as he sees fit. There is a long road ahead of us to rid the nation of Demonrat scumbags. Thanks for listening and Merry Christmas.

I voted for Trump twice and believe he was robbed his second term. DJT chose personnel poorly, he chose candidates for the midterm worse. His litmus test was to verbalize the 2020 election was stolen; if not he rejected them. His choices were pathetic for his cabinet. He lacked the will to clean out the FBI and DOJ more than this in four years he never learned politics. He attacks good people if they are a threat to him. I’m no fan of DeSantis I think he sells snake oil and is the establishment’s man but Trump had zero reasons to attack as he has done. In two very long years has DJT done anything to help those unjustly imprisoned for Jan 6th? He lets them rot and that’s is unacceptable and disqualifying. His actions after his loss were to create a social media platform; does this help the Conservative cause or further his ego? Did he ever learn to stop insulting people or to refrain from constantly tweeting? So what are his suggestions lately; suspend the Constitution, fire everyone that has any connection to censorship, trading cards with his likeness as some weird pyramid scheme and finally to top it all he again shows his pathetic decision making and supports McCarthy for Speaker. As to the censorship how will DJT decide who is guilty? The statement is ludicrous on its face. Raw pandering to fools who want to hear such tripe. I won’t comment on his scheme to take simple peoples money profiting from their goodwill toward him; obviously he has none towards them. Now McCarthy, Paul Ryan’s hand picked successor who lives with a pollster who has a surprising poor record for Conservatism and many feel is in bed with Democrats. McCarthy is like McMaster, Kelly, Mattis, Pompeo, Wray, Barr, the list is so long I can’t remember them all but I do know they All betrayed Trumps base and they all were chosen by DJT. He doesn’t get it does he. I supported him but no more now he feels more like a huckster. I surely don’t want DeSantis because he is just like McCarthy and McConnell. I blogged at the end of 2020 begging Conservatives to break from the broken Party that is called Republican and start new. There was no more perfect setup than disenfranchised base and a strong personality to lead them away. I heard a lot of hand wringing and statements like we will lose the next election because we will split the Party. News flash, you lost the election, election rule changes across the States will make that loss very painful. Democrats swept the election when they should have been slaughtered by votes. Was that election stolen too; I think so but poor candidates like Dr Oz and has been Palin among others rejected because they said maybe we should move on from the “stolen election” rhetoric because it wasn’t helping get new voters, all that didn’t help. DJT is a figurehead nothing more he is not the base. Because he led people astray and others like Sundance over at CTH with their blind loyalty despite the warning signs, I happen to like much of what Sundance says time has run out to find a new Candidate for 2024. Trump will lose it is inevitable or if he wins the primary he will be humiliated in the general. So the base only has the establishment DeSantis. Golly seems DeSantis has gotten a whole lot of free press for exposure reminiscent of Trump’s field clearing in 2016. Ya think that’s a coincidence?

You are wrong to support Trump any further. Trump did some great things with his America first agenda. However he has become exactly what he ran against. Part of the swamp and a politician. He’s no longer doing this to put America first he’s doing this to appease his bruised ego.

Aside from The utter mess he created over his mismanagement of covid, and yes the mess was completely his fault for not getting experts involved outside of government run bureaucracy he is now supporting McCarthy.

McCarthy who sat on his hands and did nothing while the election was stolen at the commands of his globalist handlers. McCarthy who already said he’s not pursuing impeachment of anyone. McCarthy who is an active participant in the world economic forum that is an evil organization moving the entire world to a fascist rule by a handful of people.

Sorry at some point you have to say enough is enough. Trump made a deal with McCarthy. He’s become a politician. McCarthy is one of the biggest rats in the swamp
