JerryBaumchen 1,362 #1 Posted May 15, 2021 Hi folks, I am one of those that believes Trump's days in the limelight & power are behind him. I think that by 2024 elections, his so-called 'power' will be completely dissipated, with only the true nut-cases still believing in him. An example: McKissick defeats pro-Trump lawyer Lin Wood to remain South Carolina GOP chair (msn.com) Jerry Baumchen Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lippy 918 #2 May 15, 2021 (edited) I think the GOP is betting heavily on Trump, and his power going into 2024 will largely depend on the outcome of the ‘22 midterms. Edited May 15, 2021 by lippy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Today he is still the Republican leader with enough power to have the number 3 R in the house removed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi Bill, Stassen was later best known for being a perennial candidate for the Republican Party nomination for President of the United States, seeking it nine times between 1944 and 1992.

And I think he knows that. He is another strong ideologue who wants to do whatever he can to stop social progress. He is a true conservative rather than a true R.

wmw999 2,444 #22 May 31, 2021 Dunno if he's entirely forgotten. Last night I dreamt he was my first line manager in an unspecified computer/tech type job, where we were a new department being set up. Yeah, he was creepy in my dream. But then in my dream I'm never the older woman who's unlikely to attract a creep. Wendy P. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
