Just My Humble Opinion

We are a year and a half away from the 2024 election - and Trump is already sinking into madness. His legal problems have hardly begun, and the evidence against him is mounting on a daily basis.

His lawyers are abandoning him, as he clings to incompetent ass-kissers whose only legal skill is telling him what he wants to hear.

His 'Truth Social' posts are becoming increasingly deranged - his recent statements about "Magadonians" being a prime example of his delusion that he is somehow the head-of-state of some phantasmagorical kingdom that exists only in his own mind.

Trump is losing whatever grasp he ever had on reality - and don't think for a moment that the GOP, along with the "Magadonians", aren't noticing that fact.

Again, we are a year and a half away from the 2024 election. If the current Republican front-runner is already as deranged and delusional as he is right now, where do you think he'll be by November 2024?

The GOP has chosen to support a presidential candidate who could very well be a drooling, incoherent, obviously insane idiot by this time next year - if not sooner.

IMHO, I'm not liking their chances for regaining the White House anytime soon.

Trump sank into madness years ago, well before 2016 – along with those who support, defend, and will vote for him.

Trump was not mad when he appealed to the disgruntled masses, and got their votes.

His madness started when he realized that his crimes were being exposed.

I always believed that there would come a time when Trump would have a nervous breakdown. His Narcissism will trigger it, he won't be in control, and people will start to desert him. His daddy is gone, Roy Cohn is gone, Jared and Ivanka are gone, his legal team is fighting with one another, no one left to bail him out. He has reached out to Saudi Arabia for help, and I'm sure he is reaching out to Putin. His unwashed Magats won't be able to save him. When Trump goes down, and I don't mean legally, it will not be a pretty sight, ketchup on the wall awaits.

Only he will be serving life in prison but claiming that he can still pardon himself, after he reverses the rigged election.

I think more and more people are realizing that the Republican Party is nuts.

Like the proverbial "woman scorned", there's no fury like that of voters who finally recognize that they've been 'had'.

SCOTUS yanking away their rights...and red states all over doubling down with 6 and 8 week abortion bans.

That party has gone as nuts as trump, their front runner.

"and don't think for a moment that the GOP, along with the "Magadonians", aren't noticing that fact."

I was curious how the magaloons have taken some of the recent developments, so I've taken a peek over in freeperland to see how they are reacting to some of the goings on. I gotta say, far more than I expected are already wanting anyone else but tfg ANNNND... They are not being mass banned.

I agree the repugs are fucked for 2024... For me, that means doubling down on working to see that comes true. Most of my efforts are going to Frisch to help get Boebert gone. Just trying to keep Colorado (and America) a bit more sane

overturn elections should they not go their way. There is another coup attempt coming. If they take power democracy will die.

Cuz it's gonna happen. It disgusts me that he'll have a state funeral. They'll overrun DC like they own it & the media will slobber all over the putrid affair. Still, I'd cheer if he croaked today.

What a fucking mess he is. Betting McConnell wakes every morning, saying, "I should have impeached that orange fucker."

And you should have, McConnell. ~insert flip-the-bird emoji here

The GOP had so many off-ramps - but instead chose to hit the accelerator while on the Highway to Hell.

My only hope is he can keep it “together” like this for another 17 months until the election. I’ll enjoy sitting back watching him lead the GQP polling and the other Repukelicans trying to defeat him. The MAGAT base will keep following the dear leader and they’ll eat themselves.
