I'm calling it right now, Trump is going to start his own political party [View all]

If the rumors about the last few house on "Truth Social" are true, Trump just declared war on Ron DeSantis. He's terrified if DeSantis and the Republicans have to be wondering what Trump even brings to the table, at this point. I think we are about to see Trump's messiest divorce yet. There's no way he doesn't star his own MAGA Party after that. I feel there's a not insignificant chance that Trump is going to lead the GOP to total ruin.
