They won't, and hat's not what Republicans want. The want someone who will pwn the libz and tell them bedtime stories about the glory of the ethno-nationalist state to come.

We're a few months removed from his 4-year crap show reign of power, no one else in the party is allowed to create a separate and louder voice for themselves, and his name is mentioned 100x as much as anyone else on that list. So he's top dog on that list partially because it's a F'n cult. And partially because, well, who else are potential voters hearing about?

There will be a bunch of Trump supported MAGAbots that win primaries and then get smoked in the general election, costing the GOP seats. A repeat of 2010 (Christine O'Donnell, Sharon Angle, etc.), but likely even worse. At that point does the Trump spell start to break? I am not hopeful. 2 out of 3 Republicans currently favor a new party under Trump. I can't believe the number is that high. Then again, he would have handily won the election had he nod sabotaged the vote by telling people not to trust it and not to mail in vote.
February 16, 20214 yr Just now, vikas83 said: Yeah, it is too late for the GOP. What planet do these idiots inhabit? What planet are they from? Is it really just going down the FoxNewsMaxJones hole into radicalized moron?

February 16, 20214 yr At this point I kinda wish the GOP would just fracture into two parties and we go with a ranked choice system. I can’t take it anymore.

I like the part where he is a complete imbecile riddled with dementia...who somehow masterminded an Antifa false flag operation to make God Emperor Trump look bad.

Granted, my evidence is anecdotal. Whenever I read the comments on libertarian posts, or articles from reason, its overwhelmingly the same Trumpbot talking points. They seem very interested in the freedom to own guns, and very little interest in the freedom to do anything else. I actually saw today so called 'libertarians" denouncing pornography in reaction to a Reason article about Larry Flynt. I'd be very interested in the percentage of self identified libertarians who support Trump and the amount that support Q.

And the "Patriot Party" can't stand without palatable moderate platforms. Might as well just stay where he is and keep turning the GOP into a freakshow.

Yes, there have been a number of articles that fit nicely with the Trumpbot talking points BUT there have been many many others that have gone 100% against the Trump talking points. My anecdotal perspective says they have been 60/40 against the Trumpbot stance. Even if my perception is angled, they have certainly not been aligned with Trumpbot talking points generally.

I wasn't so much referring to the articles themselves, though a few were disturbing. One did try to make the case that Trump was "the most libertarian president ever". I was more commenting on the type of people who read it and comment on it.

The articles themselves have most definitely not been pro Trump. edit: I was being generous in my first post. I'd say the articles have been more 75% anti and maybe only 10% pro Trumpbot with the rest more neutral. Anyway, I get your point and one I hadn't considered. Wonder if that's more a reflection of the need for the Trumpbots in there to push back or if the Reason readership really is a more pro Trump crowd.
