Probably thinks he has a path to victory in South Carolina with Biden leveling off and Harris in bad shape.

Unreal to think the GOPs strategy to counter impeachment is to work on blaming Hunter Biden. Although I disagree with philosophies, generally I though a lot of there turnips had some smarts.

The baby Trump balloon was slashed in Alabama. The slasher and his getaway driver were arrested.

Quizzically there is this:

The motive for the balloon attack is unknown.


Sure.

So yeah, Nikki Haley wrote a book. Says Tillerson and Kelly worked to undermine Trump.

I wonder how association with Trump will affect people's political future. It seems to me that as far as Haley is concerned, she's toast. Pence is surely in that category. I just don't think anyone other than Trump can really cultivate the Trump coalition.

They're TV ratings gold, so plenty of opportunities to cash in there and on the speaking circuit

Republican Chuck Schumer has a sad:

Chuck Schumer
@SenSchumer
Peter King stood head & shoulders above everyone else

He’s been principled & never let others push him away from his principles

He’s fiercely loved America, Long Island, and his Irish heritage and left a lasting mark on all 3

I will miss him in Congress & value his friendship


Oops check that he's the top Dem in the Senate

Near term she has turned into a Trump surrogates. She's going to hit the trail and rail against the deep state like Kelly and Tillersen.

Donald Trump Jr ventured on to the University of California’s overwhelmingly liberal Los Angeles campus on Sunday, hoping to prove what he had just argued in his book – that a hate-filled American left was hell-bent on silencing him and anyone else who supported the Trump presidency.

But the appearance backfired when his own supporters, diehard Make America Great Again conservatives, raised their voices most loudly in protest and ended up drowning him out barely 20 minutes into an event scheduled to last two hours.

Man....I just don't get the calculus for some of these establishment Republicans turned Trump lackeys. There was literally no reason for Haley to say anything until she sees how 2020 shakes out. Can't hold your book release off for 1 year?

But you'd be pretty stupid to think that even if Trump promised such a thing that he's going to keep his promise. And, for anyone not blindly loyal to Trump, Haley's own book makes her look like a weak sycophant.

Guys Trumpism is the GOP now. This will live on well past Trump. It's a global phenomenon.

I mean other than Trump himself, in every election since 2016,Trump-ist candidates are underperforming establishment Republican candidates. At least it seems that way to me.

I agree. But the question is can Trumpism survive without Trump? Who will emerge as the face of the party going into 2024? Cruz? Cotton? I just don't see these guys doing well in a national election.

Bernie Sanders at +$2,000 on an odds site I am looking at. If anyone would give you that I have to say it makes putting down a C note kind of attractive.

I don't think he will win probably BUT he does have money and lord knows he won't drop out.
