Trump did not wait long to make his move to completely take over the Republican Party..

[kentuck]

He is scheduled to be the star speaker at next Sunday's CPAC Convention.

When he gets his standing ovation from the dominant crowd of conservatives at the CPAC Convention, the hostile takeover will be complete.

One wonders what Mitch McConnell and some of the other delusional Republicans think about them being kicked under the bus so quickly, after they voted to not convict him in his impeachment trial, or even to prohibit him from running again? They must see that they screwed up big time? Especially those that were thinking of running for the Presidency themselves?

Even the flies on the wall are whispering to each other.

But, it is all a sham. It is a quixotic dream of a power-mad narcissist and is doomed to failure. It will not protect him from what is coming down the road. And it certainly will not protect the Republican Party or CPAC.

It is rather entertaining to watch this slow-motion destruction of Republican hypocrites.

1. Trump is now "their millstone."

2. shithole is only securing the cult portion of the GOP . . .

which is nothing new. Strong opposition is happening now.

Although overall the GOP truly have no souls but establishment GOPs I believe will prevail.

3. Rats not fleeing the TRUMPTANIC

Despite hitting the iceberg twice.

Twisted people following a TWISTED man who wants to be a DICKtator like Putin, Kim Jung Un, and Hitler combined.

4. It won't be long before Trump starts threatening more violence using his armed mobs.

5. If he lives, he is the nominee

And I think it will be another coin flip election possibly with even a higher margin for the Democratic candidate over the Republican. I can't imagine what will happen if he loses by 10 million popular votes but squeaks through because of things like splitting the Wisconsin Electoral college by Congressional district along with the already built in inequities (voter suppression, weight towards small states, etc).

8. In politics, almost 4 yrs is an eternity. The deposed idiot king likes to talk.

I don’t believe he will run. If he declares, the money he is taking in becomes subject to FEC laws. Right now, he’s keeping the majority of the money, if not all of it and that’s how he wants it.

I think the enthusiasm, or should I say “woke” fear will be with us in ‘24..hopefully the same in ‘22 and we keep the house blue.

9. My exact words for months now

if he is still walking and not in jail he wins the nomination easily and just as you noted, it will be coin flip election.

I do think he will muck up the mid terms to some degree for them, because he will help a lot of freak show circus clowns win nominations who will struggle in a general without him on the ballot ...

7. Real conservatives won't be there. Rabid reactionaries pushed out

real conservatives long ago.

10. Then again, Mitch might know where Trump will be legally

by 2022.
