If I have learned one thing over the last 5 or 6 years it is that the smart money NEVER counts Donald John Trump out. No matter the odds, no matter the cost, no matter of anything.
I doubted Trump a few times, I know I’m not supposed to admit it, but it’s true. When he bombed that ‘Syrian chemical weapons depot’ I was pretty pissed seeing as he promised us no more forever wars.
Well, it turned out the whole thing was a ruse and we didn’t end up in another forever war, so Trump was right and I was wrong.
Now the question has become, what will happen to the GOP without Trump and with the RINOs having been exposed and on the run? Will Trump’s America First, anti globalism, anti-lockdown, MAGA mission keep going, or did it end with Trump’s term in the Oval?
Well, if you read this through the right lens … it looks like Trump is on the march.
This excerpt is from Fox News so you need to read between the lines to find the truth, but it’s in there, despite how tone deaf the people quoted may be:
‘Republican Sen. Roy Blunt of Missouri’s announcement that he will retire next year opens the door for former President Donald Trump to further cement his grip on the GOP.
Blunt becomes the fifth Republican senator to decide against running for reelection in 2022, as the GOP tries to win back the Senate majority it just lost in the 2020 election cycle.
Sens. Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania, Rob Portman of Ohio and Richard Shelby of Alabama have also announced in the past couple of months that they would not launch reelection campaigns. Sen. Richard Burr of North Carolina said during his 2016 reelection that he wouldn’t run again in 2022. Another old bull of the Senate – 87-year-old Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa – is mulling retirement.
Mike Biundo, a longtime Republican consultant and veteran of the 2016 Trump presidential campaign, told Fox News that the retirements “certainly do” allow the former president to potentially increase his clout over the GOP.
Trump may be gone from the White House, but he still casts a large shadow over the party he reshaped and ruled over during his four years as president. Trump’s influence over congressional Republicans remains formidable as his poll numbers among GOP voters remain astronomical. Trump has vowed to support primary challengers to Republicans up for reelection in 2022 who voted to impeach or convict him or others in the GOP who have crossed him, and he is flirting with a 2024 Republican presidential bid to try and return to the White House
Another veteran GOP strategist noted that the retirements “certainly opens the door to a new generation of Republican candidate.”
“Do you get people like Sens. Josh Hawley and Tom Cotton, who adopt the Trump principles but ultimately are seen as credible legislators, or do you end up with people like Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, who is a reality TV show candidate?” asked the strategist, who asked to remain anonymous to speak more freely. “I think that is going to be one of the more interesting developments this cycle.””
Tune out all the noise in that propaganda and look at the bottomline. Trump has an enormous popularity rate among Americans, and among Republicans it’s 80-90%. This is Trump’s party.
With all these senior GOP establishment hacks … ‘moving on’ (gee, I wonder why they are all leaving, makes you wonder) it sure looks like Trump has been planning a hostile takeover … again.
However, this time it’s not just of the White House, it’s the entire legislature. Remember … Trump is as red-blooded an American as anyone and in many ways he is the peoples’ last best hope. Luckily for us, you can never count Donald Trump out, NEVER.
