Trump ran for president because he loves this country and wanted to drain the swamp.A Billion Dollars
Go's to show ya that a fool and his money is soon parted.
After I lost a 100 million I would of bail out losing another 900 million would be stupid.
Do you believe that's why he's considering running again? Or could there be ulterior motives this time?Trump ran for president because he loves this country and wanted to drain the swamp.
To make America great again.
But the left wanted nothing to do with that!
I believe the same as you buckhorn, to the letter but clearly many others do not.Trump ran for president because he loves this country and wanted to drain the swamp.

I read lots of posts wherein many didn’t want Trump or Biden as there President. Didn’t want them anywhere near politics. That’s the whole reason I started this thread and asked the question, “Who Then”.
Now after a thousand responses, very few members have suggested someone else. Some have said millions could do better, even neighbors down the street could do better. Cheney and DeSantis have been chosen by a small handful, to represent the GOP but other than one member, who mentioned Michelle Obama no one, that I can remember has made a case for a DNC nominee.
While this post has represented a tiny proportion of MM members, and certainly doesn’t represent a representative sample, (which in the beginning, was never intended to do) it does seem to reflex a frustrated public, a public very much stuck in the past and anxious and apprehensive about the future. I think that does very much parallel the general public as well. That said, it seems, at this time, there is still a very uncertain public about who will represent the DNC in 2024 and considerable reluctance on the part of the GOP to have Donald Trump represent them.
The discussions have, for the most part been fairly subdued, and still, a lot seemed to reflect strong opinions, defended with well articulated reasoning. I didn’t sense much compromise and would say we’re all well dug in and not likely give much to the left or the right, at the moment. It will be quite interesting to see if that changes much over the next 2 years.
Thank you Founder for allowing this discussion to continue, I think it does demonstrate two good things. One, the Campfire can handle multiple subject matters, at the same time, and second, your members can keep it functionally cordual when they want too.
Trump will not be indicted and Cheney will not run or win. Next.Trump is a disgraced loser who's most likely going to be indicted. the discussion here is supposed to be about who's next and it 's not going to be that useless con man so he's no longer relevant to the next election.
Cheney needs to run as an independent and win. independents never have the financing to be competitive in the past, not a problem for her she'd be buried in cash.
Tulsi Gabbard is good.Ill play. Tulsi gabbard for the dnc
I’ll tell you the same thing I tell anyone who questions my Republican credentials.No bluehair, if the cops had been there they would have stopped any organized lawbreaking as Trump wanted and was fearful it might happen. Pelosi wanted otherwise and again failed to follow good advice. Talk about tunnel vision, or is it party loyalty.

This is actually one of the funniest things about the lefts trump derangement syndrome. He could have just as easily run as a democrat , played up his relationship with Jesse Jackson and the like in the 80’s/90’s. Played up all his celebrity buddies from his TV run, snoop dog and all and the “liberals” would love him for wanting to drain the swamp. Put an R next his name and abracadabra he’s racist.I’ll tell you the same thing I tell anyone who questions my Republican credentials.
1). trump is the only democrat I’ve ever voted for
2) I’ve been a registered Republican a hell of a lot longer than trump has.
Facts.
The Liberal New World OrderThe issues confronting this country currently are those created by the very people we have elected to serve and those rich enough to fix the game. The fact they're manipulating every single facet of our lives and the media is leading us to the trough only reinforces how we're being lead down the path to perdition. If you sit back and look at the entire chain of events confronting us since Obama told us " we're ready to fundamentally change our nation" it's all being done to our own detriment.
These events are not elective choices made by " WE THE PEOPLE". The old phrase "there's overwhemling public support showing approval for these programs" and the old tired " along with " the polls show" are nothing more than a figment of their imagination being used to bludgeon us into submission using their media driven propaganda machine.
The big lie really isn't really the big lie at all, it's simply the vehicle they're utilizing to hide the fact unmonitored ballot boxes, dead people voting, unlimited mail in ballots, chain of posession issues, bad voters rolls, and illegal immigrants casting ballots that were actually counted in the last election. The fact the legal process makes it impossible to bring many of these issues up in the correct timeframe to stop the outcomes work against us in the whole fair election charade.
The uniparty knows full well that election integrity is paramount into duping us that all's well. Let the public find out that elective outcomes can be manipulated and they know the ruse is up and we"ll take it out on those who choose to decieve us. Here's a little tid bit for you to digest.....elections in this country while largely fair and honest have been manipulated for decades in many areas. The elective process has been watered down by all sorts of political tricks and nonsense that were done to keep one party in power., The fact they opened the floodgates in the last big election are proof positive that methods were changed that in some cases were directly opposed to legal voting laws in some states. So the guys making the rules BENT the rules to allow illegal votes to be cast and counted!
So lets see the guys imposing their will on us today changed the rules to allow them to be able to continue the process by removing candidates, laws, or voter oppostion to their plan. The old "potomac two step" at it's finest........That's right and if you think Mark Zuckerberg throwing 450 MILLION into unfettered, unmonitored ballot boxes sitting on city streets allowing votes to be cast at all hours, insured election integrity, well here's your sign. Then factor in multiple ballots being sent to vacant homes that actually wound up in the election being counted and ballots being counted for days and days after the polls closed, you can see why the alarms went off!!
So no candidate or group can gather up enough positive proof before the electors were certified and here we are..........With no way of provening things in such a short timeframe ANY elected official is under the same constraints...... so the election must have been honest..........Trump lost the election to Biden since he couldn't prove otherwise.........and the uniparty was all in making sure that the public knew our election integrity was intact! It's been done that way for decades so it must be fine. Trump was delegitimized as a sore loser and a liar. Yet there's been these holes in our elective process for years and some new wrinkles were thrown in this election that made things a bit far less secure..........HMMMMM
Trump lost!! In reality by the process he did! the press and the uniparty have confirmed it........
and it's Russia's fault gas is so high and store shelves are empty and many businesses can't find anyone who wants a job even after the covid shut half of America down...... There's some high level gaming being done here and severe planning and manipulation, to fill their wallets with more of your money.
They're twisting every American to push us towards that "UTOPIAN SOCIALIST NEW WORLD ORDER.... and we know that's the case since they finally admitted it and their polls support it since we hear it everyday.......your concerns and rights are secondary to the interests of the UNIPARTY. Keep your eyes open boys if it looks like, wiggles like, and smells like it's fish, it's a damn fish even though the propaganda will tell you it's not.
Let's Go Brandondude Will Never Admit He F'D Up By Voting For Brandon!
Exactly, people think they want free market everything until they get it. as a farmer I wish like hell the government would get completely out and let the slackjaws get what they asked for. I'd make a fortune and they'd scream like mashed cats.
Cali, have you ever met a crackhead conspiracy theory you didn't like ? give it a break dude. maybe the reason 100% of the time your stories are never proven true is because they're not ? think on that a while. sometimes a thing is just what it looks like, reality is a hell of a concept try it.
Reagan keeps coming up. but I have to assume most of the MAGATS are either too young to remember him or like RELH they're too old to remember him. because Reagan was much closer to Biden than Trump as president and today he'd be considered a progressive lib. you do know both he and Ford supported the Clinton Rambo gun ban right ? didn't think so....
Ford and Reagan were the best presidents in my lifetime. Trump was the worst in the nation's history and the damage may never be contained.
Desantis will be the 2024 GOP nominee . the dem nomination is wide open it won't be Biden or Harris.
Of course he did....but....you forget, he is top tier....of a two tiered justice system.Joe Biden Knew About Hunter’s Foreign Dealings And Lied About It, Voicemail Shows
Why did Sleepy Joe leave his crackhead son a voicemail message stating "I think you are i the clear on this one". This laptop is not a conspiracy theory. It is not a smoking gun. The laptop is Hunter's that is a known fact .The main stream media can not be trusted because they should have reported on this prior to the election. The Biden crime family is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Washington cronyism. Let's go Brandon. Super Ultra MAGA
Grizzly,It was 50 years ago yesterday that Nixon infiltrated Watergate. It took over two years for the investigation to ultimately lead the leaders of the Republican Party to march into the Oval Office and tell Nixon they no longer supported him for tampering with an election and he was thus forced to resign.
Trump attempted to do something far worse, and continues to tell the lie today, that he rightfully won and that ONE PERSON, the Vice President, could choose the next President. Just imagine the long term damage that would do (for instance, Kamala could instill herself as next President in two years).
You just wrote a whole bunch of stuff about Hillary, Russia, Afghanistan, Putin, stolen elections, Antifa, transgender people, BLM, and a bunch of other key trigger words for a certain ideology.Grizzly,
You forgot or ignored what happened to the Trump campaign by our own intelligence agencies under BHO. He along with Hillary's team weaponized the FBI, DOJ, Big Tech, and a totally corrupt media in an effort to frame people in Trumps group. These acts are much worse IMO than anything Nixon people did. It cost us dearly as a nation, and has contributed to more distrust in all our institutions of government.
We watched Trump fill arenas repeatedly, while Bidens had trouble getting anyone to show up as his events. I do not believe this diminished shell that is Joe Biden really got 81 million votes. The mail in balloting and the compliant media played a huge roll in his defeat in several key battle ground states. The State and Supreme Courts whiffed on this IMO not wanting to be the ones to make this controversial call.
The result is we are stuck with a mentally defective president and the dullest cabinet in history. The exit in Afghanistan, and the self-made energy crisis empowered Putin's Russia to strike Ukraine, like they did in the Obama years. We are in deep **** with this lack of leadership at such a perilous time. Now closer to the brink of a World War that, unlike climate change, could end the Earth as we know it. all the while the News media seems only concerned with Trans-gender rights, correct pronouns, parents who dare think their values matter, a wide open border, The fricken climate, and off course too many guns (not muskets) in the hands of law abiding citizens. I don't think the protestors mostly armed with cell phones on Jan. 6th constitute a planned insurrection. They deserve to be charged with trespassing, in some cases assault, and a need due process like anyone from BLM or Antifa . What's happening to most of them is a shamefully partisan attack, designed to keep the rest of the public in submission.
My biggest fear is that a 3rd party might split the conservative vote (like Ross P.) and result in another Democrat (any democrat) in the White House in 2024. 1.) Much effort needs to be exerted to convince the public that the vote is legit. (easy to vote hard to cheat) 2.) I hope Trump will be satisfied that his American First Agenda will be continued if he is not the nominee. I feel we may be best served by a leader that is slightly less polarizing. Be sides, I still want the new Republican President to appoint Trump as the ambassador to Russia, or maybe as our rep to the UN just to watch the left melt-down.

I'd buy that. It's either revenge or his best way to avoid prosecution.Revenge
Don't care if it's revenge, being orange, purple or blue, as long as the gas prices are low, inflation is low, and the stock market is up. Oh and we have baby formula for babies.If I was Trump, I would want revenge on the Democrats for all the false allegations that they committed on him. But then again I come from a feuding family that believes in taking revenge when wronged.

Make no mistake about it, Gramps is no genius or even above average Pres. Gramps accomplished his only job - which was to win in 2020 and get Trump out of the WH.And yet he is 1000x better than the idiot in office now. Not sure which part of that do you not understand? Also, go easy on name calling there...
Make no mistake about it, Gramps is no genius or even above average Pres. Gramps accomplished his only job - which was to win in 2020 and get Trump out of the WH.

Who cares what Mitt Romney does?
Again why would we want another almost 80 year old running the show? Trump is sounding more and more like he wants to announce and he has ton of money.
Another Trump term would be entertaining but wow if the best this country can do in 2024 is Trump and Biden then we deserve to be banana republic.

I don't think anybody has supported Biden on MM. Some people don't like Trump, that doesn't equate to support for Biden.So you’re saying our country is better off with Biden as president?
If you take an apple and cut it up it’s still an apple. But if you take an orange and cut it up POTATO.Grizzly Responded to my comments:
"None of it absolves Trump from trying to overturn an election and instill himself as an unelected leader of an almost-to-be-former-Democracy."
I didn't say Trump was absolved in my response. I was just pointing out that you ignored the unfair drubbing that was unleashed upon the Trump administration by Clintons staff condoned by the BHO White House. The real crime is the News media pushing this with no effort to fact check the people in power. Why would they? Our US intelligence community were party to it and a compliant media felt they could simply parrot what they were told.
Smearing your political opposition by itself is not all that uncommon. However, when the FBI, and the DOJ do this "on our dime" it should never be tolerated. This practice is incredible on it's face and it blows me away that normally sane Democrats (moderates that may disagree with me but love our country and the rule of law) can claim how truly worried they are NOW about our institutions. If its OK to spy on a sitting president, slander and attempt to destroy his presidency, what chance do we have? Was this only justified because Trump was the candidate? Will it happen again with a another GOP candidate in the future?
Mike Pence did not have the authority to change the delegate totals he was presented with by the States. Trump was and is wrong for asking him to do that. I'm sure he absolutely believes that he got screwed. Admittedly, I lack a smoking gun on the subject of ballot tampering. It is a gut feeling that 81 millions votes for Mr. Magoo can't be legit. Is it such a reach that in a few highly contested states it would not have taken much to change the out come? Certainly this would not require millions of ballots but would require willing members of State governments to to turn a blind eye to the fraud. If enough motivated operatives Hated Trump more than they love our Republic I think it was possible.
As for being respectful, you are correct that it needs to happen. Thank you for your opinions.

Thanks for being polite, to me, Tog, means a lot. I’ve been called worse than disgusting………. Appreciate your gentlemanly candor.Why don't we send Hunter and Don jr both to GITMO they're both culls. then we can talk about Trump and his reason team without the side show distractions.
Graham is now refusing to talk to the Georgia grand jury . isn't it funny how so many of the innocent Trumpers are not willing to testify under oath ? and the ones who do have had their memory erased or can only say one word " Fifth " . it so strange if I didn't know better I'd think they have something to hide.
Cipolloni has agreed to testify in a private scripted interview, but it's not clear what subjects he's willing to discuss. he worked for the US taxpayer but he's not willing to disclose to us or investigators what we paid him to do. that seems perfectly normal.... FOR THE SAUDI LEADERSHIP.
Anyone who's still defending Trump or his big lie is disgusting to put it politely.
If you take an apple and cut it up it’s still an apple. But if you take an orange and cut it up POTATO.
So when he asked the guy in Georgia Just to find the amount of votes to win, You think he didn't know he had lost in that state. BS
So how do we fix it?I don't think anybody has supported Biden on MM. Some people don't like Trump, that doesn't equate to support for Biden.
It's way easier to pretend to hate both sides.....nothing is ever your fault.....So how do we fix it?
Can we survive 2 1/2 more years of destroying our country?
I hope we can make it until 2024.Your choices in 2024 could be:
Super MAGA Trump & De Santis

The Brandon administration failures. A small list:
*Sending oil from the strategic Petroleum Reserve overseas.
*Challenging new Arizona election laws prohibiting voting by non-citizens.
*COVID idiocy. Wearing a mask in public when not necessary. Complete COVID theater,
*"Jim Eagle" worse than Jim Crow. The big lie about voter suppression in Georgia.
* Supreme Court nomination of a person who claims they can not define what a woman is because they are not a biologist.
*War on parents, weaponized the FBI. Supporting the Teachers union. Critical Race Theory, Transgenderism and now pushing the term "birthing parent" over "mother".
* Afghanistan withdraw. Most shameful foreign policy disaster of my lifetime.
* Border crisis, Immigration, getting rid of the Stay in Mexico policy. Worst border crisis in country's history.
* Crime surge. Canceled operation legend.
* Departure from energy independence. War on fossil fuels.
* Inflation.
*Race relations. Supports the notion that we are a bad racist country. Breaking his campaign promise of being a uniter.
And the guy (Sleepy Joe's) got hairy legs. The kind that get blond in the sun. The kids used to rub (his)- legs in the pool. (He) likes kids sitting on his lap...

Trump WON. Let's go Brandon.
Lagriz, what are you basing your statement that Trump believed he won the election on ? and even if he was dumb enough to ignore Barr and everyone else telling him he lost is being stupid an excuse for breaking the law ? if that were the case our prisons would be empty by morning. he knew he lost he was just too weak to admit it.
Desantis would never run with the orange loser. why play second fiddle to a retard when you can just take the nomination from him.
One legit question about Desantis is his new worth, less than 350k. most truck drivers have a net worth more than that. so is he really a career politician that honest ? doubtful. probably just a chitty money manager and poor businessman. but he's still probably worth more than Trump if the truth is ever known.
But what has Joe done that is productive and good for America?Lagriz, what are you basing your statement that Trump believed he won the election on ? and even if he was dumb enough to ignore Barr and everyone else telling him he lost is being stupid an excuse for breaking the law ? if that were the case our prisons would be empty by morning. he knew he lost he was just too weak to admit it.

I think this was difficult for Trump and many of his supporters to understand. The fact is, many people (but still a small fraction of America) loved Trump and would travel miles to stand in the heat or cold to hear his speak.
As for Biden, no one felt that sort of passion. He was elected simply because there were even more Americans who hated Trump. These would not walk across the street to see Biden, but they would happily wade through the fires of Hell to see Trump out of office. The only rally they really cared about took place on November 3, 2020.
Just like it’s designed to work Elon, just like it’s designed.

You are saying that Biden and posse was just smarter then Trump and his posse and stole t all the votes they needed to win and did so good that they stole the Office.
But now they are too stupid to keep the office. Can ya be both.

Failed military interventions are our future it doesn't matter who's president. if MAGATS get their way the next one will be right here.
Without a doubt Cheney is the best potential candidate to date. if you know someone better who could possibly run let's hear who it is .
Interesting, but the election in many states did not ONLY take place on November 3rd. It instead occurred on the 3rd, 4th, 5th and then some with a known fixed number of votes needed to overcome Trumps early lead. Ballot harvesting, ballots without signatures, many posted late, late votes passed thru by postmasters, operatives who are as you say "willing to wade through fire" to sway the result.As for Biden, no one felt that sort of passion.

Some republicans couldn't stomach his morals but for the most part that ship sailed with Clinton. If Clinton had not been given a pass, I doubt Trump would have made it out of the primaries in 16, may not have even run.
Yep. When Nixon finally threw in the towel, it was because those in his own party refused to compromise their reputations. In an age where voters overlook character in order to achieve political advantage, they become the part of the "system" that failed.
I cannot count the number of times I have read MMers justify one transgression or other on the grounds that candidate X was "just their representative, not their pastor," and then these same people scratch their heads and wonder why the opposing team has adopted their own playbook.
Perhaps that ship has sailed, but unseaworthy vessels eventually sink. I am with Centerfire when he suggests that Americans share a lot of common ground, if only the extreme left and right will stop with the distractions to prevent us from seeing them. Vote your conscience, politics be damned. With the lies out of the way, we will all have better representation.
Go revisit the Nixon thing.
Nixon wasn't forced out of office UNTIL they had ACTUAL Proof, he was directly involved in Watergate (the hush money slush fund).
What we've found is that the mainstream GOP leaders know Trump lost and have said he's responsible for the insurrection, either long ago or in taped conversations."I just want to find 11,780 votes"
Many Americans believe Trump asked Raffensberger to throw the election, and most believe he should be charged for his role on January 6.
I believe there is plenty of proof that DJT is unfit to be president. If there is any difference between him and Nixon, it is that Nixon's party was unwilling to commit themselves to his lies. That appears not to be the case with the Republican Party today.

Kind of like when unions occupied the Wisconsin State Capital for several days when Walker was trying to get laws passed that they didn't like. Those occupiers were called heros by the left. I would call them zeros just as like the Jan 6 protesters.I cannot count the number of times I have read MMers justify one transgression or other on the grounds that candidate X was "just their representative, not their pastor," and then these same people scratch their heads and wonder why the opposing team has adopted their playbook.
I seem to recall a democrat trying to find roughly a tenth of that many votes in 2000. I guess it all depends on if they are legit votes and if you are trying to steal the election like Al Gore did."I just want to find 11,780 votes"
Many Americans believe Trump asked Raffensberger to throw the election, and most believe he should be charged for his role on January 6.
Did you think, after some sketchy crap(let's not deny it did, to what level is the question), he'd want to find 11775 votes?
So if he had said " I believe there are 11780 votes that were missed", that would be ok?
To say that he believed 11,780 votes were missed is fine.
To tell the Georgia Secretary of State to "find" more for his team ("there is nothing wrong with saying you recalculated") is very different.
Why not analyze the presidents actual language?
