    Default Prison?

    Tax fraud convictions of Trump Companies does not fare well for his image. Mara Lago could be the new Club Fed! The old level 1 at Eglin AFB is closed.

    I doubt it. Looks like Trump had very little to do with the actual operation of the company. The CFO Allen Weisselman plead guilty to 15 felonies and admitted to doing it for personal gain.

    Does it hurt Trump"s image? Sure. Is it enough to sway undecideds against him in the increasingly unlikely event he wins the GOP nomination? Maybe, but it doesn't look like he has chance anyway.

    Saw that Bolton the Walrus was threating to run against Trump. That would put a nail in the GOP future.

    I voted Constitution Party (Castle) in 2016. I was among the hundreds of thousands who awoke that Wednesday morning fully dreading hearing the phrase "Madam President." Trump surprised me enormously. He moved the embassy to Jerusalem -- which each of the previous 6 presidents promised to do. He slowed the imbecilic love of China. He called out the Fake News for exactly what it is. Etc.

    I chided people who railed against (Birx' invented slogan) "15 Days to Slow The Spread."

    "C'mon! It's just two weeks. It won't hurt you..."

    Then ... BOOM! I had a visceral reaction to "30 Days to Slow the Spread."

    "Hey! Those conspiracy theorists were (once again) right!!!"

    I was personally an anti-vax guy for decades. There was NO WAY I was going to take that experimental jab. I cringed every time Trump boasted about how quickly he helped rollout these "wonderful" vaccines. I *hated* that he kept bragging about this fiasco.

    Regardless, I voted for Trump in 2020.

    It wasn't necessary, period. (Sweden is STILL the example of how herd immunity works -- and worked. Australia became "'the new China" in their idiotic Big Brother oversight of all their people.)

    Regardless if Trump actually ends up being the Republican nominee or not, his mere involvement has doomed the chances for the party in 2024. Many libertarian and moderate voters that might normally vote R. won't vote for him because he's an abrasive narcissistic asshole that is about as articulate as a stoned kindergartner, and his rabid base won't vote for a more moderate candidate that prefers to persuade his adversaries rather than bully them.

    There's no persuading them.
    The last two elections proved it.

    TFOGGER, telling it like it is!

    That phony SOB has done enough damage. He's already lost his second chance. And his third chance. But please, bring Hillary back so the Democrats can vote for her. Two peas in a rotten pod.

    What do we care now? It's not like people have voted for conservatives lately?

    You either believe in a world like Trump believes, or you don't.

    We are done pandering to you "so called conservatives."

    It's hilarious that you think Trump is a conservative.

    Trump is a Trumpian, first, last and always.

    David Cole over at Taki's mag got it right. Cole is a conservative but he's smart enough to see that Trump is the boat anchor that will take the Republican party all the way to the bottom of the ocean:

    A core belief of these cultists is that MAGAs alone can elect anyone anywhere. They don?t just dismiss independents; they?re outright hostile to them. ?To hell with anyone who?s not ?one of us.? We can do this ourselves!?

    Even though, of course, they can?t. It?s a complete fiction that MAGAs alone can elect as much as a dogcatcher. But you?ll never convince them of that. They refuse to understand that Trump barely won in 2016 (a handful of votes in a few swing states), and of course they can?t accept that he lost in 2020. Not with MAGAs behind him! If you?re MAGA and you lose, it has to be fraud!

    Kari Lake telling McCain supporters?in McCain?s state??to hell with you; beat it, we don?t need ya? had nothing to do with her loss. She had MAGAs, and that?s all you need! So she must?ve won!

    Trump doesn't care about "America", he cares about Trump. And he knows that win or lose, HE will be just fine.

    Democrats LOVE Trump. They know that the more he runs his mouth, the more they solidify their chances of taking the white house again in 2024. Without a Hillary to run against, Trump has ZERO chance of winning in 2024, but if he either runs as a 3rd party or just spends his days ripping the Republican party to shreds because they didn't nominate him, he can (a) cause the Republican candidate to lose and (b) get his face on TV.

    Trump is not now, or ever been a conservative. he ran on the R platform, as the D's told everyone. It's Hillary's turn. He' supported D actions , politicians, etc ,his entire time in NYS. His politics were always D slanted. BUT he saw an opportunity to go for it under the R banner. IF he runs in 24, he will not get my vote, a 3rd time. As the last post mentioned. He's dragging any potential R win down, slowly, but surely .
