In his first post-presidential appearance, Donald Trump plans to send the message next weekend that he is Republicans' "presumptive 2024 nominee" with a vise grip on the party's base, top Trump allies tell Axios.
What to watch: A longtime adviser called Trump's speech a "show of force," and said the message will be: "I may not have Twitter or the Oval Office, but I'm still in charge." Payback is his chief obsession.
Axios has learned that Trump advisers will meet with him at Mar-a-Lago this week to plan his next political moves, and to set up the machinery for kingmaking in the 2022 midterms.
Trump is expected to stoke primary challenges for some of those who have crossed him, and shower money and endorsements on the Trumpiest candidates.

If he follows through which I doubt it will cause a chasm in the party Most of the Republican party will stay with him because they like the racism, xenophobia, and transphobia but there are more than a few Republicans who truly believe in limited government, free trade, and a robust foreign policy. If it's only one in ten that's enough that if they vote for us, form a third party, or stay home we can have a durable governing majority.
Run, Orange Man, Run.

(42,556 posts)1. Fun fact: I've read that the literal translation of 'manna' is 'what is it'.
May the Republican party follow Trump's business empire swirling down the drain.

Is it "mana" or "manna"? The dictionary says you can spell it either way.

(42,556 posts)3. I've always seen it as manna, but when I went to check my memory of the 'what is it'
both spellings did show up in my search.

They only want power. The orange menace has shown them the way to hold onto power and not let those nasty socialist democrats do anything more than pay taxes that Red states can then appropriate.
