#1 It's not Trump. It's the oligarchs who expected you to get quietly into the boxcars. They desperately want to hang on to the power and money they are feasting upon.

When was the last time you read the Declaration of Independence? There were a lot of colonists who agreed that the King was wrong and that they were violating the natural rights of Englishmen, but who could not break with the King. Ted Johnson doesn't want to have to make a hard choice. It's no longer a government of laws. The government itself breaks its laws with impunity.

#2 On his mind, too, was his estrangement from his older brother — a rift the former president had done nothing but widen. He wanted to hear Haley’s plan "to pull us all back together."

Maybe your brother is just a lefty asshole. Not Trump's fault

#3 He wanted to hear Haley’s plan "to pull us all back together."

I didn't know she had a plan.

#4 The media can always find people who are "concerned" about Trump.

#5 He wanted to hear Haley’s plan "to pull us all back together."

Uh-huh. Sleepy Joe said pretty much the same thing.

a rift the former president had done nothing but widen.

Yep, it's Trump's fault. (nod to Frank G.)

#7 Ted would avoid a tough four years that would begin to end the replacement of our electorate via invasion, the systemic indoctrination of our kids, the looting of our treasury and revocation of our natural rights. Nikki or any other RINO would, at best, slow the slide into oblivion a little bit. DeSantis might stop the slide without addressing the issue with the Administrative State based on the composition of his donors. Trump is the war choice.
It was Winston Churchill’s belief that America would always do the right thing after exhausting every other avenue. Our issue this time is that we have no smoldering fleet in Pearl.

#8 Statue of Jefferson removed. Whatever entity is currently ruling over us, it definitely needs to be dismantled.

#9 I've been rereading my library and just finished FOUNDATION.

Trump may be Hober Mallow.

#10 The media ~~can always~~ only finds people who are "concerned" about Trump.

FIFY - notice how they never interview a Trump supporter except to mock said supporter? Odd isn't it?
