President Donald Trump has endorsed Florida Senator Marco Rubio for re-election. This has angered many MAGA supporters who view Rubio, correctly, as a DeceptiCon establishment figure. However, there is a pragmatic political approach evident that should be considered.
First, it must always be remembered that the Republican party is a private club. The RNC is part of that private club. Both the Democrat Party and the Republican Party are private clubs. There are no federal, state or local election laws or rules that require club participation in order to run for elected office. The clubs exist to facilitate the infrastructure of a process that is guided by inside rules made by club members.
Second, within the MAGA community there has been a recent argument about the Republican party that essentially boils down to this: (A) President Trump should start a new party; a new club; and/or (B) President Trump should reform the Republican club from within, removing the establishment elements.
Within the club President Trump can influence the rules and agenda, but the club itself must support them. As we saw in 2016 there is a significant portion of the club who do not want Donald Trump within it. Thus all moves to influence the club should be cast against this reality.
President Trump endorsing a club member should not be a surprise to those who have advocated for Trump to take-over the republican party. Rubio has enough support within the club that a non-endorsement, or Trump’s support for a primary challenge, would exhaust a lot of political capital and ultimately result in a fight within the club.
Trump remaining inside the club, influencing the club, and carrying a sword of Damocles (endorsement or lack thereof) inside the club, could and should be viewed as the most pragmatic approach toward changing the club. Indeed, President Trump has previously said he preferred to remain in the Republican party as opposed to starting a new party from the ground up.
Currently we have a rather unique political dynamic. Arguably, the club now needs Trump more than Trump needs the club. However, also arguably, the club infrastructure is factually a value to President Trump.
The argument over “club value” boils down to one of political loyalty. ¹Example: if members inside the club are permitted to undermine the MAGA agenda of Donald Trump -the historic reference- then what value does the club actually have? ¹Example-2: if local and state club officials are tepid in their support, or worse yet actively work to undermine their candidate, then what value is the club? This has been my argument for over 15 years. Alas, if I am to support the MAGA objective I must defer my opinion to the person who really is the decision-maker, Donald Trump.
Again, Trump remaining inside the club, influencing the club, and carrying a sword of Damocles (endorsement or lack thereof) inside the club could be viewed as the successful approach toward changing the club. The historic reference here would be Barack Obama taking over the DNC club….. against the Clinton machine.
Clinton was to the DNC as Mitch McConnell and the Bush clan (et al) are to the RNC. Reference what Hillary Clinton did to Bernie Sanders (’16); successfully. Reference what Bush (and club) tried to do to Trump in ’16; unsuccessfully.
Barack Obama now owns the DNC club and has full control. Donald Trump is still working through the process and does not have full control; hence he has to navigate through the tribal issues that remain inside the RNC club.
President Trump endorsing Marco Rubio is pragmatic and keeps options A and B open. If Trump had not endorsed Rubio, or endorsed a challenger, then Option B (takeover of the club) would be much harder as the club would fight to save Rubio. Within the club Rubio is viewed as a more valuable club asset than Alaska Senator Lisa Murkowski.
Yes, Rubio is a self-centered and compromised DeceptiCon and should not ever be trusted. On the positive side Rubio is tough on China and aligned against the influence of China in the U.S. That can be seen as a value.
.
¹CTH readers will long-note that I have personally been an advocate for starting a new political party. I know how challenging that approach is, and I am wide-eyed to the reality of it. That said, I have also wanted the Republican party to reform so that a new party was not needed. However, years of suffering through broken promises of club reform leave me strongly cynical…. but I am willing to give President Trump every opportunity to succeed because, well, if I am being honest, we have not had a person on the inside genuinely trying to reform the party.
However, if Trump endorses anyone like Murkowski or Haley, my support for Trump’s effort will end immediately.
Rubio Supports Red Flag Laws
Pass.
Yeah but we the people killed it. Go to The Gun Owners Association of America
Dems don’t have the sense to just bring up a bill that is only about red flags. They’ll always do a multifaceted gun control bill which makes it hard for Manchin to bust the filibuster and makes passage of the bill impossible.
Manchin announced he will in ” no way ” bust the filibuster , seen somewhere today.
Many take this to mean his price has not been met yet.
He will fold like a cheap suit, he always does.
Manchin is less of a problem than Rubio is. How sad is that.
Manchin has more in common with most Maga voters than Rubio. He is more a Democrat for economic reasons.
Don’t care how much resource is is used up in a primary challenge of Little Marco. This endorsement is a mistake. This little siht sat on the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence as the acting Chairman and did nothing to help President Trump. SMH.
Keep your enemies Close Rubio is nothing without a Trump endorsement
Without the Trump endorsement, Charlie Crist will be in that seat. Hard to believe so many folks have so little faith in our POTUS as he adds another tool to his shed.
There is no difference in charlie crist and rubio… It matters not one whit which one of them is elected…
The choices are: elect a Conservative, or surrender to the commies.
Oh, yes there IS a diff. I see you have not been aware of Crists antics for lo, these many years.
No way Crist gets elected to statewide office again, won’t happen.
… sat on the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence as the acting Chairman ….
Which means Rubio could make life miserable for Team Trump with a few leaks from “anonymous sources”. Wasn’t it Rubio’s campaign people (Washington Free Beacon?) that originally contracted Glenn Simpson for oppo research?
There may be a quid pro quo with this endorsement.
With you 100%. He’s got to go!
You are correct. If I was in FL I would not under any circumstances vote for Rubio.
okay goodie….vote for the democrap candidate if it makes you feel goodie
And Pence too! Yea! We can reform Pence too!
And, on the Gang 0f Eight. Not just any Gang of Eight but the original. This guy is as crooked as a dog’s hind leg. So what is the rest of the story? Because as it stands, I don’t see how President Trump can trust him.
a baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad mistake…mr.president…. really bad…next coziness with 30 pence ????
But, but, but, lessor of two evils!!!
LUCY says …… I’ll hold the football
Trust Me
Sundance, spot on. Rubio is on the edge for me also. Murkowski would be a bridge too far and signal that Trump’s agenda is not mine.
President Trump has already committed to campaign for whoever runs to primary Murkowsky. With regard to her re-election he said: “Get any candidate ready, good or bad, I don’t care, I’m endorsing. If you have a pulse, I’m with you!”
What makes anybody believe that he would change his mind?
LOL, after endorsing Rubio, nothing. He will endorse any living pond scum with an R, evidently.
It’s all theatre at this point. GOPe successfully took Trump out. ( Just like to Tea Party faction).
There is no reforming the Republican Party. Let it die.
hostile takeover of the repub party, and make it a non -yielder to the dem party. or REVOLUTION.
which one of those options, does the butts in this room feel like doing first?
Amen, WB.
As he also endorsed Ron Johnson. Ron said in 2010 he’d run for only two terms. And maybe he’s felt honor bound to uphold that promise. BUT, a direct appeal from the President would change everything in my book.
President Trump has already made direct statements about those Senators he does NOT intend to support for re-election. Murkowski-AK, Thune-SD ?. So yes, I will gladly defer to his judgements on efficacy of candidates.
I’m personally glad he gave a strong nudge to Senator Johnson to run again. It is a big, exclusive club, especially the Senate. I mean, in a state of 6 million or so Wisconsinites, only TWO are in the Senate club. That’s pretty rarified company.
And he is one of only a handful or so Senators who have supported President Trump even while taking serious flack from the Corrupticon Media.
Some of the best current Senators have served with Senator Johnson on the Homeland Security Committee; Rand Paul-KY and Josh Hawley-MO. There may only be three or four other Senators who genuinely love this Nation and work to make it better, within their ability to do so. And yes, they take in enormous perks with the job.
For me, it comes down to the hard votes that really mattered.
Supreme Court and other Judicial Nominations. USMCA Passage. Tax Cuts, support for the Military, holding the line on Constitutional rights and allowing him the time to work out the Abraham Accords.
It seems similar to the balance that exists even within local politics. You work with the system we have, as long as we have it. Sometimes, the Enemy of my Enemy can be my (Temporary) Friend.
Sadly, I also am certain impeachable number of Senators would have coalesced immediately, had President Trump really done something to poke a stick in the Senate’s eye, whatever that could be.
In the meantime, what are WE – ALL of us – doing in the here and now, in our areas of influence, to make our own governance better? Townships, school boards, City Hall? How many are regular phone/email contributors to our State Legislators office staff? How about County Boards, Police and Fire Commissions?
THIS is where the fight is… Let Washington, District of Corruption burn itself down if it comes to that… But for our sakes, and for our grandchildren’s, we MUST do all we can to make our home better.
I work with several parents of a school district which was dragging its feet, re opening schools to a full-time in-person schedule. THEY got active. Sought out candidates for the local school board who are committed to doing what is best for the STUDENTS. Not the captives of the Big Education Teachers Unions.
Their efforts saw three new candidates elected to the school board this past Tuesday. The School District Admin office also recently announced they will be re-opening to full-time classrooms effective the beginning of the next academic quarter.
EXCELLENT! Really great to hear that. Congratulations.
Johnson was one of the Senators that sabotaged President Trump’s stimulus plans. Fraud and election theft aside, if that stimulus could have been passed, it not only would helped alot of people, but it would have secured more badly needed votes in swing states.
There was a recent leaked Dim document, talking about capturing the smaller town/city races, to position people moving up the ladder.
They plan to have it ALL. THIS IS WHERE WE START.
Myself, and other Wyomingites are working on option #1
……..but with the speed at which the unipartys handlers are pushing out these draconian bills, option #2 might be the only choice.
Interesting how they had all of these bills/EOs locked an loaded on day one of the vegetables administration. Like they planned on the elections outcome.
Peter Navarro’s assistant Garrett Ziegler is on Telegram, and he’s really interesting.
He said that MONTHS before the election, that his WH staff, military, and many others were just blowing off P. Trumps orders…Just not doing them.
THEY ALL KNEW THE ELECTION WAS RIGGED. ALL OF THEM.
A “hostile takeover” is a fevered fantasy. Not gonna happen.
Yes, the job is done. Now they can go back to pretending to care about issues that impact the country while doing nothing.
Totally agree, as one of the TP pioneers and activist, I’ve used to hope we could oust RINOs. Glenn Beck, back in the days, exposed all of them. It got a lot of publicity. I was hopeful that people would finally see it. but…. NOPE
They keep getting reelected and its impossible to get rid of them
Fox will always promote them and the line is always the same: If we don’t vote for this RINO a D will win and that is the end of the world. We must vote for the RINO, and the sheep accepts that.
Not me. No more.
Im beginning to wonder more if Trump was threatened, or his family was threatened, in order for him to become Trump lite.
Is Trump controlling the repub party, or is the uniparty controlling him?
I’m thinking they got to him. But that just means we go on without him. MAGA existed before Trump ran and it will go on without him. WE are MAGA.
Doubtful that President Trump doesn’t have a very clear view on these candidates and their value versus harm. Rubio is certainly no big Trump supporter – but he is still young, has lots of time and he has Talent. He is very smart, very knowledgeable and can be bit pragmatic and help to the MAGA agenda.
I agree with President Trump – we can’t afford to lose Florida & Rubio is very electable.
“but he is still young, has lots of time and he has Talent”
Well, he is kind of young I guess but for the rest of your comment, not so much.
Sorry, Rubio is as dumb as a box of rocks.
He has zero talent.
What he is is corrupt to the core. He has never worked a day in his life.
little mark…is younger version of prima ballerina of GOPe- mis linda..stop this crap how is he talented- no spine rubio… justah
Smart?? No.
Rubio is too close to the Bushies. Nonetheless, he has strong support in our Hispanic communities comprised of Cuban immigrants who are too familiar with communism. We’ll see. Keep him busy as a senator and get DeSantis ready for presidency.
familiar with communism…where in the h*ll he has been on 01/06/21 to defenf VSG/ESG PDJT -cat ford ????
You can’t find a better Latino Csndidate?
You don’t understand the Cuban Mafia here.
My thoughts on reading the comments on the speech thread was “how many battle fronts does Trump need?” If all of DC is a swamp, you are going to have to choose your battles. Better to take the easy wins and save your energy for the big fights that will certainly be there.
Only a few are up for reelection 2022.
At this point in time, Trump’s power comes through his endorsement record. His endorsement is going to decide who wins and who loses
“His endorsement is going to decide who wins and who loses.”
Yes, true, so why endorse Rubio instead of finding a MAGA candidate to endorse in the primaries?
WHO? Do you think that they are just there for the choosing, on the streetcorner? The time is past. Its 2021. There is no one else.
Big, big, mistake. I will NEVER, EVER, vote for Rubio. He is already on the record for supporting amnesty, which is the end of this country. So, this is non-negotiable with me.
In endorsing Rubio, Trump is being “Machiavellian”, neither moral nor immoral, but instead driven by pragmatism. He can’t fight the whole world.
As more and more Rinos are sent packing, Little Marco will not be a problem to handle as his supporters are not there anymore and yes we need Florida. Going to be very interesting to see what Trump has to say this Saturday.
Or, he could just stay silent on this piece of crap. This does nothing for Trump’s integrity, in my opinion.
Oh, but he has fought the whole world and won – that’s why the swamp had to get rid of him by any means necessary. Can’t have somebody in office who knows how to get things done and actually does it. Makes the rest of the swamp dwellers look bad.
One positive: he talked strong on China
So here we go again. Third Party or Reform the Republican Party.
I’ve always believed that we should choose the lesser of two evils when we vote. I think folks can see now that Demorats are worse than Rinos. Perhaps these people already knew that, but like to believe that rinos are worse. If we still support Trump, then we should follow his lead. I thought by now we would of had a good primary challenger to Rubio, but they haven’t appeared. So with no time left, Trump pragmatically chooses to support the rino over the demorat.
If people still want a third party, then they will be running against Trump. And I’m still waiting to see what this third party actually is.
This comment section will be vicious tonight…
Demorats are worse than Rinos
I disagree. It’s one party. They are all on the same party, same interests.
Ds have to publicly say what they say and RINOs as well. They say different things, But are all aligned into getting the result they all want while putting on a show of resistance.
If that were true, then the policies being implemented right now by the Rats, would have already become law by the Rinos.
We can probably bring Mitt back from the dark side too. No. I can’t believe I even wrote that.
They rotate the villains.
So then we may find people are running against Trump. If Trump is endorsing people who are driving support away from his goal, that’s a fools errand. People will sit out voting because the system is now outwardly corrupt, and they aren’t running candidates who do OUR agenda.
if you want a proof point, see the Georgia special senate election. How many Republicans stayed home, allowing them to not have to manufacture as many votes for the 2 senators who won?
I really have some mixed feelings about this but Trump is the only game in town. We are powerless otherwise. St. Cocaine Hunter, Patron Saint of Lost Laptops, could screw a prostitute on the Resolute Desk and we could do nothing about it, just like everything else. We know Rubio is a Turdle guy since he named him to chair the SSCI.
That’s one hell of a pretzel!
Let Trump be Trump.
P. Trump is working hard to navigate his way for us (MAGA) to win; in the short and long term. I support his decisions. Even if they seem odd from time to time.
God Bless Our President Trump.
I’m in agreement with you. Sundance gave me something to think about, that’s for sure. I have been an advocate for a third party but it may work against us. Perhaps reforming the Republican party should be the first priority. For the most part, I trust President Trump.
Some years ago, I knew some people who were involved in getting the Reform Party on the ballot in all 50 states. Herculean task, and Godawful expensive.
It’s sort of like dealing with God (no, Trump is not God). When something we think is bad happens to us, many of us say something like “God, why did you let this happen to me? ” and wonder what we did to deserve it. God plainly tells us in his Word that His ways are higher than our ways. And he has a different agenda than we do. He might see that this particular thing needed to happen in order for God to do something wonderful later on. We just have to trust. I too wonder what the heck is going on but I believe Trump has thought all of this out and has taken the road he believes to be best for the country. Remember, he said “the best is yet to come.”
My pastor also said that a couple of months ago at the end of his sermon. It made me smile thinking, “Is he a Trump supporter?”
Battered Conservatives gonna try to make it work.
For the kids.
Your still here?
Your point?
I’ve always appreciated your comments here and look forward to your take on things. My question to you is: If Trump is not for third party, and for reforming the R party, what is your recommendation going forward?
That’s kind of you to say. Frankly, I can only follow Trump at this point, with serious trepidation. We have to fight for election integrity and support those willing to take the hits to investigate and audit 2020. There seems to be a lot of hair-on-fire commentary that seems meant to agitate and drive us towards the conclusion that only violence will correct things, and even if they are sincere and merely folks like us at wit’s end and not agent provocateurs, we do ourselves and CTH a serious disservice to announce and encourage violence here.
We need to prepare for such a possibility, though I strongly suspect that it will be brought to us, and I equally strongly believe it would be unwise to be eager to bring it to them. Look at the hay being made by the Conspiracy of the non-violent non-conspiratorial acts by MAGA people, and imagine what would happen to our movement and our voices if one of us were to go off half-cocked right now. We would destroy ourselves and empower them.
I suggest we find peace in preparation and prayer and fellowship. Seek to bless others and be able to sustain our families and our communities. I’m struggling along with the rest of us as to the whats and the hows, but God seems to have a plan. While the VA is committed to burying me sooner than later and this crazy time has given them more power in that regard, God has also used these very circumstances to protect me from hazards that I had lost hope of surviving.
Miracles do happen, the worst things intended to harm us can bless us and nations if such is God’s will. That’s pretty much all I got, but it’s been enough thus far.
“However, if Trump endorses anyone like Murkowski or Haley, my support for Trump’s effort will end immediately.”
I think you are safe. Endorsing Rubio is simply being “Machiavellian”. Endorsing Murkowski or Haley would be madness.
By raising money for the republicans he is essentially supporting Murkowski. He may endorse her opponent but at the same time fund Murkowski. Strange world we’re creating for ourselves with this thinking.
If he doesn’t show up as the key speaker at this fund raiser, the vultures will move and takeover. Now they will have to lurk in his shadow.
You don’t understand Republican fundraising, do you? They took 20% of every donation to Trump…20%! For doing NOTHING.
They are now trying to deny any funding for any candidate who does not do his/her donations ONLY through WINRED. Scum that they are.
MTG uses Anedot. Any new candidate thats is announcing, I tell them I won’t donate through WINRED. Make them go elsewhere, starve the beast.
Pubbies are really shitty fundraisers, anyway.
Would love to see what Ed Rollins is doing these days. He’s pretty astute, and he did some PAC work for Trump.
“Trump remaining inside the club, influencing the club,…could and should be viewed as the most pragmatic way of changing the club.”
This is seemingly true only because of his choice to remain in the club. It remains to be seen if he is able to sway those club members who are never Trumpers. He has chosen for himself the long steep climbing road.
Clubmembers opposed to President Trump will play the same conniving swamp games they are well known and mistrusted for.
He & America First people will overwhelm the remaining GOPe – RINOs. They will begin to fade out of sight and say ‘their party left them”…just the #WalkAway Dems say. Turtle is a ‘has been’. When he & his cronies leave and peons will be run off too or at least be far outnumbered.
No, they won’t.
This is like belonging to the KKK club. Why would anyone want to be a member?
Bannon on his podcasts says a new party would cost a billion dollars and take too much time and effort. They are focusing on getting Maga regular people to fill the 4000 precinct chairs currently vacant in the GOP. This may be a viable path to a Maga party. It requires a lot of us ordinary folks to stand up and pitch in. The Tea Party was grass roots and able to get several candidates elected. I think it is best to get behind this effort because otherwise communists will take it all. Ultimately, all politics is local. All those who want to DeSantis as POTUS, I want Florida to have a Maga gubernatorial option first. And, yes, Mario is not MAGA or conservative, but, he is not far left. His base is not pro commie. His strong base means it would be a messy fight.
Bannon is not our friend any more than Marco Rubio is.
Hes the ONLY ONE THATS CURRENTLY OUT THERE AND DOING ANYTHING.
What the hell are YOU doing? Are you financially supporting the lawyers who are STILL fighting pro bono for audits in the contested states? Are you running for a small office somewhere?
He’s supporting the Precinct Project, and the auditors, he’s got his finger on a lot of subversive crap going on, and he gives people ACTIONABLE things to do besides whine.
I hear you. My personal take is also “it’s every man for himself”, but I don’t mind Trump still trying to influence politics for our benefit. In fact, I appreciate his continued efforts. He doesn’t have to do it. He can golf until the cows come home and ignore us. But, he’s still in this fight. I appreciate that. In reality though, it’s still “every man for himself” as we fight off the Commies in our midst, town by town, county by county, state by state.
what does that mean “it’s every man for himself”?
Does it mean you don’t vote?
The problem is, I won’t be “pitching in”. After years of Uniparty antics, I have as much contempt for the Republicans as I do for the Democrats. I supported and voted for President Trump (at great personal sacrifice – I am literally surrounded by Left wing madness) because I expected him to be a disruptive force in DC, which, to his credit, he was and still is.
That said, after 2020, I am simply done with the Republicans. Will I vote for a Democrat.? He’ll no. I’ll write in my vote. Having a Republican who hates me is no different that having a Democrat who hates me, other than that the Democrat doesn’t lie about it.
rubio is for gun control and amnesty for the illegals… Of course he is “far left”…
The eye should be focused on our war with the Communist Chinese Party. This is the greater threat….today, and the near future. Marco may help in this fight. PDJT can steer (cattle?!e#) the young Rubio in the correct direction. It’s a risk, all-be a moderate one, that has enough ‘value’ no one current available in this race can swear on. So be it. Nothing is certain, but you trust your gut, your heart, your experience and your Lord and go with it. You run like hell until you finish or die! PDJT is in this to win. I’m in this to win. Damnit, you should be tooooooo.
So “the young Rubio” seems to be the talking point. Is this who “we” are looking to as the future of the MAGA party? Really?
NO, it is not who WE are looking or in the MAGA party. In business/politics, you have too play with the cards you are dealt. Some battle will be lost, but hopefully not the WAR. Rubio is certainly not my choice, but I believe he will be played by PDJT. Key: bring MAGA candidate up the latter for future success in MAGA. It takes time.
Yep…The time to replace Rubio for this election cycle has come and gone.
P. Trump is covering a base for 2022. I worked on campaigns for years, and the time you start recruiting for a 2022 Senate seat was 2018.
I think the fight is against the CIA. They run this country, from what I can tell. Remember Harrison Deal. “Accident” my ass.
You are correct Sentient, the alfabet agencies are all against American citizens. The CCP also supports to various degrees these same agencies. Trust no one in this age of traitors. It’s really unbelievable what has happened over the past 45 or more years to this date. I’m old enough to have witnessed this total destruction of our Republic. My world travels, many location moves, military & civilian training have given me knowledge, experience and fear of what could possible happen. I survived on hope and the belief in my Savior. Listen to the silence….if you can. Answers sometimes come out of that experience. I’m looking for actionable direction…..signal, not noise.
What… wut? Comparing Trump to Hussein?!
Anyway, I’m ALL in for DeSantis 2024.
Trump “Sword of Damocles” works whether he is in the club or not.
If America made a pragmatic alliance with Stalin during WWII to fight Hitler, the greater and stronger enemy at the time, certainly Trump can make a pragmatic alliance with Rubio. Those who insist on purity over pragmatism, usually go down in defeat.
Well said, nation.
But it’s worse than an electoral defeat… today, our Republic hangs in the balance.
Except Rubio is known to stab him in the back every chance he gets. How is that helpful?
vote for the Rat if it suits you
..BECAUSE THEY BOTH HATE STRONG NATIONALISTIC GERMANY…SO FDR WAIT TILL JUNE 1944….
Good analysis Sundance. Being pragmatic, choosing your battles, keeping Florida red is all good.
Besides we need to keep Los Tres de la Habana happy so we can see them sing the vote for
Trump song again
Trump will lose support over these kind of moves. Endorsing little marco is just another in a series of missteps he has made. I know many were forced on him, like traitor Pence, but he is no longer in office so why not do the right thing? Another reason why I probably won’t be voting again.
Admin: please I flag. Bumped by mistake.
I believe you can hit the flag again to “unflag”. Either way, we need to receive 10 hits before the flagging even reaches our email. An occasional accidental flagging is no “biggie’. 😉
Thanks for that bit of clarification. i did not know that it took 10 hits before it would come to admin attention. And for further clarification, I’ll flag your comment and then try to “unflag” it. Then ya’ll can let us know it that does work. <smiles>
So I did flag your comment. When I tried to “unflag” before posting this message it would not let me “unflag”, just states that I’ve already flagged it. I’ll try again after posting.
Still got same message–‘already flagged’ after I posted my comment.
Hope this helps.
Worked like a charm for me to unflag
Thanks for trialing this too!
Still does not work for me, so maybe it is just my setup.
My exact sentiment and why I’m not voting again.
YOU ARE NOT ONLY ONE AND ALSO SEND $$$……
yes, because dems aren’t so bad after all
Not one Republican Senator called for a recess so that President Trump could have had some recess appointments and maybe had some support around him. Did’nt all those Republican senators just approve all of Biden’s appointments? I think all the Republican Senators are bad.
WTH?
“Politics makes strange bedfellows.”
Harry Truman(I think).
If Trump were to only endorse those who are pure of heart, he would end up endorsing almost no one, and all those whom he didn’t endorse would combine against him. This would be the case with a new party as well as an old party.
But Rubio? He is in the framing of Trump on the Russia hoax.
But he SAID he would only endorse MAGA – Rubio is not even close to MAGA.
Nope!
Keep in mind, SDNY is getting ready to strike and go after Trump. We all know they don’t need any crimes to ruin people’s lives. So, I’m not saying they have anything. They don’t. But they are going after everyone around him.
Was he warned if he doesn’t comply something would happen? Or tricked into thinking these RINOs were working behind the scenes to help Trump or somebody close to Trump?
Trump is not being himself. Something is not right.
Where is suspicious cat when you need him?
A solid statement of position by Sundance. This may yet be the clearest situational analysis for Deplorables offered by anyone.
I too have a strong aversion to Rubio based on his record of actions to date. , too am eager to see President Trump move forward with actions that will politically cleanse the GOP / RNC of proven traitors to traditional conservative, constitutional values embodied within MAGA principles and policies..
Up to last year, I had allowed others to influence my belief about President Trump’s level and breadth of awareness as compared to ours. I had assumed he always knew what we knew plus a whole lot more. I finally came to believe that was not true.
IMHO the President is certainly aware of many facts and dynamics within our government, his White House, and the geopolitical world in general. But I believe he is not always as current in knowledge about critical issues and actions affecting those issues as are those who read a large number of sources on a daily basis.
The POTUS simply does not have time to read through 15 or 20 sources several times daily; his schedule is packed and rarely does he stay in one location for very long. He is not omniscient nor omnipresent. So he cannot know everything.
He has also been handicapped by lacking a large number of truly loyal aides and staff who could extend his knowledge base by themselves researching the daily changes in political landscapes around the nation and the world and reporting back to him in cogent, condensed summaries, prioritized by criticality of potential impact..
I believe some were assigned to do that but were not always diligent in their duties nor totally frank and objective with PDJT in their reporting. Hopefully this next time – whatever he is planning to do – he will have a more stable large pool of loyal, aides and staffers who will be working FOR President Trump & MAGA instead of undermining both.
Interesting Dan Scavino post on Telegram this week.

Always remember that he knows… He always knows. It’s a hard time for many, especially those in the know. The good news is that people are waking up and will take this country back. Hold the line, Patriots. It’s a bumpy ride, but it will be worth it.

….by the grace of God, PDJT is an imperfect human, much like some of us.
Yes, absolutely!
That’s why I realized it was neither realistic nor rational to assume PDJT knows “everything….”.
Um, sorry have to disagree. Trump sleeps only four hours a night. The rest of the time he is reading everything that comes out – in the papers, on the internet, TV, everything. At one of his press conferences, some bright “reporter” asked him if he had noticed a particular thing. Trump’s reply was “I notice everything.” It’s not like he just fell off the turnip truck. He has been making plans for decades for just such a time as this.
….in respect Joan, I have to disagree with your comment. We’re in a cultural/economic/tyrannical war within our country…and a hot war with the Communist Chinese Party (CCP). I’m war experienced! When it starts, all plans go out the window. Why? Because your adversary is also planning how to attack your position (politics/economics/physical locations/etc.etc). A critical chess match ensues. PDJT was not only the commander in chief, he was also the point of the spear, company commander, Sargent and….private. He had very…and I mean very little help from the fake media/corrupt government and intel agencies.
Your example above is a cut to his accomplishments given his promises he was elected to accomplish. Ten PDJT’s could not have done much more. My thoughts. Thanks you for yours.
He’s not new to being in the den of the enemy, and playing the same game they’ve been playing for decades. DeceptiCons are also conniving and always working on their agenda of being the right wing of the Uniparty.
Just have to wait a little while longer, unfortunately. Time isn’t on our side.
Trump leads an army of furious deplorables some 100 million strong still barely containing our rage over having just had a historic landslide election stolen right out from under us. Yeah, we are that large. We know it. And they know it too. They know EXACTLY, to the number, how many of our votes they negated to pull off the heist. Seems to me there is a lot to be said for quartering this rabble (me, you, us) INside the castle walls while 45 games out his next moves.
As for Trump’s endorsements, or non-endorsements, he can play his hand and I’ll follow suit. Make the deals, line it all up, and I’ll do my part on election days.
Face it. We got NObody else who plays at his level.
Trump Landslide 2024
I didn’t vote for Screwbio last time and I won’t vote for Rubio now either. Trump endorsed him both times.
However, I do support Trump but Rubio, he can drop dead.
Good. Let’s have Gillum as our next senator. Thanks a lot…NOT.
The repub party cant be reformed unless VERY drastic measures are taken ASAP, starting with the replacement of both senate and house minority leaders……..which has a snowballs chance in hell of ever happening. People also need to vote out the dems from the repub party whether in the primary or general election…….which again has a snowballs chance in hell of ever happening.
New party, or nothing. The constitution party is already there to be had. Please join me.
I agree.
The only 2 option I will accept:
1- Trump going away, retiring and staying out of politics.
2-Trump endorsing non swamp people.
Anything else he loses me.
Good luck with that binary choice.
“Perfection is the enemy of progress.” — Winston Churchill
The subtleties of internecine warfare escape many of our commenters.
?
Sigh… possibly.
It’s difficult to deal with the greatest injustice of our lifetimes and still be in it, hoping for some wins down the line… regardless of the strategies.
I’m still so angry over the stolen election and Pence’s betrayal. It’s difficult to move past that. I’m trying to hang in there. I’ve never been good at playing political games, don’t enjoy them, and see things as either morally right or morally wrong. It’s not that my intellectual understanding is lacking. It’s my unwillingness to involve myself in something that is wrong that holds me back. A colleague once remarked, “You have a very highly defined sense of right and wrong.” I do. I’d never make a good war strategist. I think Trump is an excellent strategist. I’ll watch and wait from afar.
It’s understandable how you fell. My faith gives me a very highly defined sense of right and wrong because God’s word clearly defines it. I suspect that’s where you go for your values. I know I can’t “convince” you, but I would suggest looking at God’s Word to see how His chosen people were to fight going forward when they were in very difficult situations, particularly stories in the Old Testament, but also when Paul speaks to the newly formed Church of believers (who were mostly Messianic Jews but also Gentiles, in Corinth and other places. They were HIGHLY persecuted, yet had they not stood and fought for their faith, the Church would have had a different project (although God’s Word is unstoppable).
Our persecution is going to get much, much, much worse as Christians and also for the unbelieving deplorable. Pray that God give you the courage to join the fight and to show you how. I believe you will have much guilt for opting out in the years to come if you never do your part.
After 4 years of trust the plan – Trump has this?
I think most Treepers figured out at least by the 2018 midterm elections that the Q Anon “trusty planners” were promoting a cleverly presented distraction from reality. Sundance recognized it early on and warned Treepers about its unreliability…and worse.
Somewhat, yes, but there were always new plans, up until a few months before the election and then there was all the good folks (and they are good folks) that were gonna save the day, only to be stomped down by the courts.
Human nature is what it is. Our hearts still soar at the sight of thin reeds we might seek to grasp as we are dragged past in the raging current despite so many before having had proven to be without root or offered in malice.
So many people are STILL in that mode, and have moved on to even worse gifts and fantasy.
I like you all, but I disagree.
Change the GOP from inside by voting for the same crooks it’s not an option for me.
Trump endorsed many GOPers that betrayed him. Once elected they dump him and turn against him. I’ve seen it too many times. Over and over. Why didn’t his influence change things from the inside then when he endorsed these swamps in the past. Why would it work now?
When he was president he tried that trick and they betrayed him.
Rubio included.
Sundance could be right but I don’t see it. I just don’t.
Even if Sundance is right, they could easily give Ds the majority so they could push their agenda forward and all we get is RINOs putting on a show that they can’t do anything about it because they are minority. Then what? We have the GOP with Trump influence but, Ds/ Uniparty get what they want anyway.
Sorry but I don’t trust the swamp.
Nobody here that I know of trusts the Swamp.
Sundance made very clear his (factually irrefutable) reason for not turning away from President Trump because of his endorsement of Rubio:
“. …but I am willing to give President Trump every opportunity to succeed because, well, if I am being honest, we have not had a person on the inside genuinely trying to reform the party.”
This is a profound and factually true observation, and is a strong reason to support the President if he thinks he can make progress on that front. It’s not at all blind uninformed support; it’s a good reason to give the man a chance, knowing he is far more fully aware of the treachery and obstacles he faces than what he may have understood about those domestic enemies in January of 2017.
Even more profound than that reason is this: exactly who do you believe is better prepared to move the GOP back to its conservative constitutional roots AND win overwhelming support from Deplorables in the next presidential election than President Trump? I can think of no one.
I’m not sure it is at all possible. Do you really think there will be fair elections every again? I don’t. Were there ever? Not really looking that way, is it?
Dan Bongino, for what it’s worth, made an unexpected comment today in his daily podcast. He claimed that there is already a movement at least in red states to beef up election security, including voter ID and other measures.
I don’t always agree with Dan, and his remarks furled my eyebrows for a minute.
But he has piqued my curiosity as to why he felt compelled to make those observations on his national podcast.
Interesting. I guess we will see.
Just check out the history behind the “ratification” of the 14th Amendment. Will cuel your hair..And that was a long time ago.
“. …but I am willing to give President Trump every opportunity to succeed because, well, if I am being honest, we have not had a person on the inside genuinely trying to reform the party.”
I understand his point but my point is, Trump was President for 4 years. How much more inside one needs to be?
And they all betrayed him right after winning election with his endorsement. Also sided with Ds.
They publicly humiliated Trump over and over on national tv, see Rubio, Romney, Sasse, etc.
I don’t forgive.
President Trump was elected as a DC / Swamp outsider. He was betrayed by many of the same Republicans we all (if we’re being honest) had thought were on our side for several decades.
Very few conservative pundits had really discovered and reported on the rampant disingenuousness among the Establishment Republicans.
Sundance was the first journalist I ever recall reading who brought attention along with logic to that problem.
Gee, I wonder when P. Trump lost his magic wand. If you are correct, he must have been issued one upon inauguration, right?
So he could clean up 116 years of swamp in four, right?
I add, I take principle over pragmatism any day.
Rubio is a snake and he will not change.
If you can’t reform the GOP, how are you going to reform the USA? You are free to form a third, fourth, or fifth party. OBiden will probably give you some start up funding.
Ok wait!
So we either support Rubio in the primary or we form a 3rd party?
What happened to primary out the RINOs? That’s where we were a month ago. Primary the swamp out.
Now we are back to we have to vote for RINOs because we don’t have a choice.
I am missing something… but is ok.
Our message to the swamp: You betrayed us and we are mad, so we will vote you for again.
okay then, who is the primary opponent of Rubio?
“Now we are back to we have to vote for RINOs because we don’t have a choice.” This to me is a YUGE problem. Same bullcrap, different day. When will it end? When will the time be right to elect “good Republicans”?
“What happened to primary out the RINOs? ”
Apparently that was a temporary and bad idea.
Florida is critical to presidential elections. Find a primary opponent to Rubio who will attract all of Rubios Hispanic voters as well as all those who support President Trump AND who will be true to their campaign promises …. and you might be able to dump Rubio.
I think President Trump has investigated that possibility and discovered such a person doesn’t exist.
..ABSOLUTELLY # 2…..
enjoy your demorat run, communist hell hole then
Yeah, it’s almost as good as the one led by the GOPe! (Trump gave us an economic reprieve which has already been dismantled- Dust in the Wind)
Sundance I believe this to be a too complicated view of what’s happening here.
Florida is now Trump and by extension his family’s new political base and home. Think about the Bush clan making Texas their political home and base.
This is all about protecting home turf and keeping Florida red. Rubio for all his flaws, has a big base of support among Hispanics in Florida. This is a base that came out strong for Trump in 2020.
This endorsement is all about rewarding that base and supporting someone who can continue to cultivate it.
Florida will increasingly become more Hispanic and Trump and his family will need that base to come out not only for Rubio in 2022, but also and more importantly for Ron DeSantis in his 2022 Governor race.
Therefore, Ron DeSantis is the MAGA candidate Trump is truly supporting here and the one who he will want to share the ticket with in 2024 if he decides to run again.
With Rubio on the ticket with DeSantis, Trump is setting up a big election victory for a United GOP front in FL for the crucial 2022 mid terms. Get out the vote! MAGA!
To put this in one sentence:
If the GOP is divided in Florida for 2022, Ron DeSantis could possibly lose his race, thus Trump endorses Rubio.
So… you are implying (pretty strongly) that Hispanic Floridian voters are unaware (evidenced by their continued support for Rubio) of how much Rubio has undermined President Trump’s efforts towards implementing MAGA policies?
I’m not acknowledging Rubio at all. I’m more looking at the optics of Trump opposing the lone Cuban American Senator in FL, who is still very popular among his people who strongly supported Trump in 2020.
How would it look if Trump primaried Rubio after getting that type of support? Trump almost won Dade County because of that support which is unheard of!
No, Trump is playing the long game. Trump wants FL solid red, he wants to keep that Hispanic base motivated, and he wants DeSantis to win in 2022.
I’ve said it too many times, you don’t win with purity tests. Rubio with his flaws is not the person to knock off. I said to knock of McConnel when it wasn’t cool because Kentucky is clearly red and that would have sent a bigger message for MAGA. Murkowski is another to knock off.
Rubio is not in same category because he brings a solid base and can help DeSantis because he’s not controversial on the ticket from a media perspective. I’m not a Rubio fan but I do recognize you can’t be divided in a crucial election, in a crucial state.
MAGA has to be strategic more than principled here. The big prize is a smashing victory by DeSantis.
I don’t think I’m going for any “purity” tests. I’ve posted plenty of times against purity and perfection. Neither is successful in the long run.
I am asking why Florida Hispanics who support President Trump would also support Rubio knowing Rubio has consistently undermined President Trump.
I think it’s a fair question.
Apparently there are no young MAGA hispanics in the entire state of Florida who could run.
Well, if there were, they’ve been stopped dead in their tracks now with PT’s endorsement of Rubio this early in the primary game. Those that might have been considering a run now know they would not stand a chance.
Its TOO LATE for someone else to throw his hat in the ring. The time to start was 2018.
..IT IS UNBELIEVABLE IN MORE THAN 60 YRS WE DO NOT HAVE STRONG ANTICOMMIE/PRO TRUMP CUBANS IN CONGRESS….
rubio is elected by the voters of Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties, which are all heavily dimocratic…
Yes, there are Hispanic voters, mainly in Dade county…But they are minorities when compared to the dimocratic voters of Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties…
You wrongfully assume that rubio is elected by Hispanics, but in reality, he is elected by dimocrats who vote for him due to the fact that he is a rino of the Nth degree of Magnitude.
So you’re implying that the majority Democrats in those counties will vote only for a RINO or a Democrat. If a conservative MAGA-supporting Republican challenger runs in the primary he or she won’t have a chance against Rubio?
You have to understand Cuban FL politics.
FL Cubqns are all about BUSINESS and MONEY. They are disgustingly liberal on illegal immigration.
They like Trump because of these two things, and they like Rubio for these two things. Simple.
So unless Rubio undermined Trump in the BUSINESS AND MONEY categories, they don’t think he undermined him. That’s ALL they care about.
Two Floridians – Trump and DeSantis – on the ticket would likely be a problem since Florida’s electors couldn’t vote for two candidates from Florida.
I don’t see Trump running again. DeSantis, yes, but I sure wouldn’t vote if Rubio was also on the ticket. Look at the damage Pence did to Trump. Rubio would do the same and worse to DeSantis.
VSG may have decided some of the decepticons are salvageable. If he wants to literally speed up taking over the power structure from McConnell and McCarthy, he can do that by flipping as many as are worth saving.
There’s a continuum of more to less evil from the McConnell, MurCowski, Pierre over to, I guess, Paul and Tuberville (I suppose).
Trying to replace all 50 or 60 of them in a timeline we would all want – NOW! -may not be something he thinks is feasible.
Also DJTrump knows that one-on-one he can decimate ‘little Marco’ as he has done in the past. Thus, Marco may be useful as a weapon against the other ‘decpticons’ although we have all seen that Marco was run over by Schumer back in the ‘gang of 8 days’.
I suppose that DJT knows that little Marco is predictable (like most senators, Marco seems to follow after the prospect of money, sex and higher office or power) and although he was once owned by Jeb, perhaps DJT wants to have some co-ownership of the ‘senior senator’ of Florida?
I wish it was April first and this was joke.
ME TOO….
Thanks for your analysis Sundance… it provided the chaser I needed to get that pill down.
I sure hope 45 can unite the tribes and seize control.
The GOPe just screwed him over when he was in the White House and needed them most… with zero concern for public perception, and now everyone involved is acting like it didn’t happen… some of them even getting his endorsement.
He’s going to need some real capable snake handlers. Opportunist Mitch got that endorsement in 2020 and turned right around and rabidly bit the hand that fed him, and at a most critical time.
I’m with you and those that agree… if he comes out in support of Pence or Haley, my faith will be forever damaged.
The only good news is that 100 million people now hate McConnell, and we got to see who Pence really is.
So Rubio’s a snake. Maybe President Trump can turn him over to be HIS snake. Maybe President Trump is
learning to play their game.
HIS SNAKE AS MS.LINDA ?? F THAT !!!!!!
Well said, Sundance. You made my point–far more eloquently than I–from an earlier post today.
First time commenting here long time follower. Been hearing about Val Demings running for Senate her husband Jerry Demings who is currently mayor of Orange county running for Governor. This may be factor in endorsement of Rubio.
Agree with you 100% Sundance. I am watching Trump navigate with interest. Personally, I’m done with the Republican party and formally disassociated myself after the January 6th manipulation by the Obama resistance, and the subsequent betrayal by Pence. I agree that Trump is a pragmatist and a business expert. I’ll watch from afar.
so you don’t mind the demorats running things, do ya?
‘nother words… Baby Rubio potties near Trump. Trump can always close the gate and keep him in his stroller.
So to change the GOP from the inside we have to vote for the same people who are the problem?
That’s what we have been doing for decades. It doesn’t work.
These RINOs are Democrats.
Next, watch Fox? Shop on Amazon? Support BLM? Support MSM?
I don’t get it and never will.
its just too bad he’s on the SSCI?
This is the long fight. It will not be resolved in one election cycle. Perfect is the enemy of good.
Priorities count. PDJT has a closer in view than do I, so as a general opinion, will pay attention to his choices. Nonetheless, would rank the priorities in my view roughly as follows as a first cut or take:
Use 2022 to put the fear into those who remain. Make it clear that the People are paying attention in sufficient numbers to cost them the job. Sometimes, we do not need to win, but to deny victory to the worst of them. I am certainly not going to accept my rep – he is worthless.
MAGA
Maybe if McConnell retires, a lot of these guys will gravitate to the power and where their bread is buttered?
My WY repub party:
Cheney, barrASSo, and Lummis – the weakest of week kneed snakes.
My WY legislature in a nutshell:
One of the most, if not thee most, lop sided state congresses in the nation. This state should be the well spring of conservatism and leading the way with conservative values by passing landmark legislation with ANY recourse. They should be sending strong fighters to DC to kick the evil money changers out of there……yet they cant even pass laws to keep the critical race theory out of schools, deny biological males from competing in girls sports, or set WY up as a sanctuary state in support of the 2A.
…….and here is the reason why:
https://wyorino.com/
The red ones I call the marxists, and they are the vast majority of our congress. Try reforming THAT.
When I asked my rep about doing these things, this was his reply:
“I wish we had done this however with current leadership we are fighting an uphill battle”
I was born here, and up until recently I never wanted to leave this state but those thoughts are becoming stronger. The dems are bullies, and the repubs, in their current form, are snakes. In my opinion those snakes are the most evil. We are where we’re at now as a country because of repubs, and one would have to twist themselves into knots to deny that.
Never again will I vote for one.
I can see that, am I spent over a decade frustrated trying to explain that to people. They watch Fox and thing Republicans are well intentioned but just can’t do anything.
Yeah… Watch Mitch going after the Tea Party. That man is vicious and when he wants to he is worse than any D.
They play dump, but are not. They are not weak or incompetent.
this is going to be a major problem for maga.
one cannot just accept this because Trump dives in to support this corruptor.
it’s at odds with everything maga stands for.
I appreciate the analysis Sundance. I respect it.
but this is a terrible mistake.
this will cause many to hold back behind any plans trump maga movement has with the trump pac and the soon to be released alternative social media products Trump has teased out.
and on that note:. no updates no replies thus far from his tech guru about the organization and funding sponsors behind the 45office.com.
that’s two weeks now.
I’m anxious.
this thing has got to start showing it’s worth. for lots of reasons.
.otherwise it’s just going to get ignored and sent into the dustbin if great ideas that never launched.
for now, I will have skepticism…I will hold MY line about what MAGA means to me.
this has the smell of just another unforced error.
we expect more because it requires more.
80 million plus voters stood solid behind President Trump.
that can evaporate faster than you can say pissed off.
this isn’t how you rally and maintain the base…at all.
maybe insiders expected this…but this ain’t consistent with maga.
at all
I won’t donate even 1 penny knowing that it may go to support rino rubio. He’s a democrat in disguise. Enough is enough.
Factually, he is NOT a Democrat. If he were a Democrat than the Senate wouldn’t be tied 50/50. The Demonics would be unstoppable. Rubio is pro life, pro 2A and recognizes China and communism are death. Muh hE’s a dEmOcRaT.
Fyi negative emotions affect the brain just like alcohol does. Even one shot impairs the higher brains ability to make judgments, process information and think logically. Negative emotions shut our thinking brain down so we’re on auto pilot. When we’re on auto pilot we’re controlled by emotions and programmed thoughts and reactions. We can not be reached by new info. We can not think; only react. Thinking returns when emotions leave so we can sober up. Then the thinking brain turns back on.
Everyone knows that when you drink you think you’re fine, in fact smarter than usual. Mature drinkers accept the fact that despite how they feel if they’ve had a drink then they’re impaired. Responsible adults realize choosing to drink means choosing NOT to think. Choosing a vacation/time out.
Unfortunately few even seem aware that emotions impair just like alcohol does so they cant protect themxelves or others. They dont know to “sleep it off/sober up”. Instead they write and post and share their ” thoughts” far and wide. Alcohol/emotions make people far more talkative.
The insidious thing about emotional poisoning is that it impairs just like alcohol but without the physical signs of impairment.
Personally, whenever an event happens that I know will trigger negative emotions I realize normally sober sites will be full of drunk posting. I tend to wait until emotions subside so people are sober and reachable again before visiting.
For the currently impaired please reread Sundance’s word gift when you are able to appreciate what he’s offering you. God bless.
“However, if Trump endorses anyone like Murkowski or Haley, my support for Trump’s effort will end immediately”.
Apparently this your line in the sand. Mine was a couple of years ago when the man simply refused to hire anyone truly conservative. His unwillingness or ineptness to deal with a corrupt Justice Department is exactly why we now have no place to turn for legal support. Then to put the cherry on top by leaving us high and dry while our country was being ripped off by not tell us that the reinforcements weren’t coming was way more than I could tolerate from this buffoon.
“He rEfuSeD to hIrE trUe cOnSeRvAtiVes. Civics 101 In most cases the Swamp Senate hires so why blame ” the man”? Btw what’s your beef with Miller or a host of other stalwarts Trump managed to get in despite Swamp blockades? Ingrate. Shame on you. #BeBetter, when?
“In most cases the Swamp Senate hires ”
So the plan is to focus on draining the swamp in the House and re-electing the head swamp snakes in the Senate?
Yes… If Trump endorses rino rubio, he (Trump) intends to dole out PAC money for rubio to use for re-election.
As far as I am concerned, Trump’s PAC is going down like the Titanic…
IT GOES FOR 30 PENCE TOO…EVEN MORE …NO COZINESS TO TRAITORS ..WE HAD ENOUGH CIRCUS UP TO 01/06/21…..
Bravo. I’m with you that America needs to be destroyed. Its time we embraced our Reign of Terror. Satan rules this world. Submit to his sovereignty. Thank for your clear thinking advice to everyone. Twerking Drag Queen Story Hours forever!
Bubble boy gets DJT’s endorsement? What kind of message does this endorsement send to the MAGA movement? Governor De Santis now leads the MAGA movement and I look to him for leadership. Thanks DJT for the ride but I can’t go along with this latest compromise.
Trump has the muscle now. Use it!
Great news, its not a problem for a vague entity you call maga its your problem which means you are in control of the solution. You’re disappointed you didn’t get what you wanted. Sundance offered you a get well gift encouraging you to see that Trump is focused on our NEEDs which means you’re not always going to get what you want. Remember the song he ended each rally with? His appeal for us to develop emotional self discipline. Trump is focused on your SURVIVAL needs. Our survival needs. Thank God. Prayers for the quick return of your survival instincts and sense of empathy/gratitude so you get over your disappointment quickly and can pitch in again. You are needed. We all are.
