Trump will be back in August according to the pillow guy.
“This is all about the Republican acquisition and retention of illegitimate power,” says former Attorney General Eric Holder on gerrymandering in the wake of the 2020 census results. Aired on 04/26/2021.
Can't believe they are still counting in AZ.
I feel Trump will lose this time by 10, 300 or something and they will claim it was all a fraud and have to count again. The problem is they think that everything that doesn't validate their world view must be Democrat conspiracy. Biden elected conspiracy, potato head branding conspiracy, Derek Chauvin guilty conspiracy... The list goes on and on
So it sounds about par for the Republicans. The ones that are beginning to realize that it's not good haven't figured out the insanity isnt an act.
"The alarm bells should be going off in the party," the operative said. "The focus should be on stopping the bleeding and then figuring out how to rebuild. Not on relitigating the election because the loser isn't happy about how it turned out."

In regards to the first paragraph: Yeah that's insanity. It's surplanting reality and replacing it with an imaginary world.Well, to be fair we are not dealing with any sort of "normal" loser here. The loser in question has spent decades carefully painting a picture of himself as a perpetual winner who (in his own, as well as his supporters eyes) is invincible, a sort of inevitable force of nature. His supporters are also identifying themselves with him and projects himself upon themselves. They are now desperately scouring all sources for confirmation of their views. The GOP is dependent on these people, so saying anything or doing anything that disturbs this dissonance will mean you loose the support of these voters which is a large chunk of their voter base. The other chunk sees this, holds their nose, looks the other way and continues to vote GOP.
I admit, that I actually thought that the GOP would toss Trump under the bus as soon as he was out of office, as he just made them loose the House, the Senate and the Oval Office in two years. On top of that, big tech took away his megaphone so breaking with him could have had limited consequence, especially if Fox News had ran the message 24/7 as they usually do.
To the second part I'm surprised they didn't blame it on witchcraft... actually, I remember they did, nevermind. I know it seems like an easy call but I think they were afraid of him splitting the party so now they are daring non insane people to leave. What irks me is the press then calls these people moderate Republicans when in fact they are hard right conservatives who are not crazy or not willing to pretend to be crazy for crazy voters.
I would be amazed if Q-Master Trash hadn’t directed his minions to amass as much dirt on everyone in the GOP as they possibly could. Blackmail and bullying are standard moves of his and the rampant hypocrisy, arrogance and hubris in that “party” must have created an absolute mountain of ammunition, to be used against anyone who threatens him from within.I admit, that I actually thought that the GOP would toss Trump under the bus as soon as he was out of office, as he just made them loose the House, the Senate and the Oval Office in two years.

I don't know about that I think the remaining are true believers... At the very least true believers in Trump's ability to destroy things. Look at the 2016 Republican Primary he did dominate vastly more qualified candidates. How? By name calling, appealing to xenophobic base instincts, encouraging violence...I would be amazed if Q-Master Trash hadn’t directed his minions to amass as much dirt on everyone in the GOP as they possibly could.
