      She didn't meet the qualifications set out. They followed the rules. Same think happened in Iowa where a Democrat candidate for Senate was disqualified because they didn't have the required number of signatures on the petition for candidacy.

        Yes, Trump did not do enough homework before endorsing this unqualified candidate.

        Has said Iowa candidate been endorsed by any current or former Democratic President?

          A tape recording surfaced exposing Rep. McCarthy for having said that he would advise Trump to resign post Jan.6 Capitol riot. That appears to have stunted the GOP about whether to support McCarthy for Speakership if the the GOP were to take control of the House comes 2023. It looks like the Republicans are waiting for Trump to tell them what to do about this.

            From my opinion, there are three type of people in the Republican party now

            33% have severe TDS (Trump Deification Syndrome)
            43% are afraid of President Trump and their decisions and talking points will change based on how President Trump reacts
            23% understand the damage being caused by having President Trump continue to be the "face" of the Republic party. But, they are currently in the minority, so their opinions do not be that strong among the rest of the party

                555 I looked at all the members of coffee room, broke them into democrats and republicans and then did a scientific analysis to come up with the rankings!!

                (Actually, I did try and rank people in the previous coffee room on their politics I cant find the forum thread however at the moment)

                  I remember that thread. You were spot on for almost everybody, except me. I am in the perfect middle.

                    Story on an "ultra-MAGA" candidate who is not endorsed by Trump, out-spent 358:1 in terms of campaign money, and still running neck-and-neck with Trump endorsed candidate Dr. Oz in Pennsylvania. The "ultra-MAGA" candidate is also very vocal about taking Trump's 2020 general election grievance with her all the way.

                      “DeSantis has not asked Trump for a formal endorsement and isn’t planning to.”
