Preemptive strike.
No, it’s just another one of his narcissistic brain farts. This time though, he shat himself.
He will wear it.

For most people, that would not be an enjoyable experience. For Trump, I’m not so sure.

Like most unpotty trained toddlers, he is mirthfully oblivious to the soil in his nappy.

DeSantis supporters were chanting “Two More Years!” at his rally tonight.

The answer could not be more clear for Reps. Do it the DeSantis way. Dems are trying to paint him as a Trump clone - he’s not.

You may be overestimating the Reps’ clarity of perception. What’s clear to you may not be clear to the Reps. You’d figure things would be “clear” to most people after a string of 59 failed attempts to convince the courts of voting fraud in the 2020 election, but not the Reps!

I think what some of them lack is not so much clarity, as intestinal fortitude. They really need to stand up to Trump, and forget about angering his base

Sean Spicer started laying the ground cover for Trump… The candidates that failed did so on their own. He pointed to an extreme difference in how much fundraising they did and how much of their own war chest they spent vs. relying on SuperPacs… According to him, successful campaigns like Johnson in WI and Budd in NC did a lot of fundraising and didn’t ask for or get much support from SuperPacs. Campaigns like Oz in PA and Masters in AZ did not put anywhere near the amount of work that was expected and even relied on SuperPacs to coordinate their ground game…
Don’t know if it’s true or not, but it sounds plausible. It also sounds like an attempt to give his old boss a path forward…

Sean Spicer is hinting that Trump pathetically picked a bunch of weak, lazy losers who cannot pull their own weights.

How long before Trump starts complaining about right-wing media bias?

Pretty sure he was complaining about Fox a lot leading up to 2020.

Also, from Politico: "Although Murdoch’s breakup dazed some members of the commentariat, it shouldn’t have. Murdoch has no friends. He has no loyalties. He has no principles. And never has. His support of politicians has always been transactional and extractive. Now entering the final days of his political career, Trump is expendable, making the Post’s and Journal’s twin discoveries in the same moment of Trump’s crimes against the Constitution a convenient cover story for the orange man. Murdoch has always been a political cad, swooning and then dumping his political partners when a better-looking one comes along. Murdoch’s next fling looks to be Florida Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis, whom Fox News has slathered with positive attention in recent months."

I'm certainly no fan of Murdoch, but this is just as it should be.
They're supposed to work for us, not the other way round. Obviously, Rupert Murdoch isn't one of 'us', but he certainly doesn't owe Donald Trump anything.
I was only joking
