I doubt it. He might keep his distance, but he's not going to openly abandon the guy who is still polling at high #'s among repubs.

advertising himself as a genial, moderate suburbanite. As if he has never heard of trump.

Dems big asset is. The anti-trump vote here.

Reportedly here many here don't seem to worry too much. Political columns talk about the tendency to 'give the other side a chance;, etc.

As the race gets closer and closer, we need trump - preferably a big trump scandal, etc.

Didn't mean to be a jerk. Just meant that I had that feeling about McConnell frequently during the Trump years. Like maybe he was a greedy GOP dick but a professional looking for the off ramp from insanity... except he never took it.

I'd love to know what the people who are holding his loans are thinking. They'll never get that money back if he goes belly-up, but maybe they don't care. Maybe the money went exactly where they wanted it to go. I hate not knowing things, because then I make shit up.

entertaining the little people. His hyperbole keeps the focus away from what they're doing. The fact that he is amoral, a thief, a liar, and an idiot who would sell this country out in a New York minute is of no concern. Maybe the only work of a Republican administration is distributing wealth where it needs to go around the world. I don't think that class of people are tethered to a country, but what do I know? Nothing....By the way, I thought of you today. I had pellucid in a crossword. Thanks!

Trumps rally’s are really just to build the base w/address lists so he can beg for more $$.
