Trump threw Republican candidate Mazi Pilip under the bus and went on a tirade about how she needed to be more MAGA after Democrats won the NY-03 special House election. Trump posted on Truth Social:
Republicans just dont learn, but maybe she was still a Democrat? I have an almost 99% Endorsement Success Rate in Primaries, and a very good number in the General Elections, as well, but just watched this very foolish woman, Mazi Melesa Pilip, running in a race where she didnt endorse me and tried to straddle the fence, when she would have easily WON if she understood anything about MODERN DAY politics in America. MAGA, WHICH IS MOST OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY, STAYED HOME AND IT ALWAYS WILL, UNLESS IT IS TREATED WITH THE RESPECT THAT IT DESERVES. I STAYED OUT OF THE RACE, I WANT TO BE LOVED! GIVE US A REAL CANDIDATE IN THE DISTRICT FOR NOVEMBER. SUOZZI, I KNOW HIM WELL, CAN BE EASILY BEATEN!
This is Trump fleeing from the loss as fast as he can. Donald Trump has a pretty nice con set up within the Republican Party. When he gets heavily involved in a race, and the Republican loses, it isnt his fault. When he stays out of a race, and the Republican loses, the Republican would have won if he had been more involved.
The reality is this. Donald Trump continues to lead the Republican Party to defeat after defeat. Republicans took a district that George Santos won in 2022 and turned it into what will potentially be a double-digit loss by 2024. The reason for that defeat was Trump. Trumps lousy strategy of sinking the border bill likely hurt Pilip with Republican voters in the special election. Donald Trump is trying to distance himself, but the NY-03 loss has his bad strategy all over it.

(15,373 posts)He lacks the ability to love, so no matter how hard he tries, he will never know love.
He confuses adoration and worship with love.
When, not if, but WHEN the Retrumplican Party discards him, the meltdown will be epic.
He's a warped, frustrated man-child, with a God complex.
Those that have the opportunity to create distance from him better do it fast, because those that hang on to the end are going to get crushed by the shockwave.
I hope the current Retrumplican Party hangs on to the end.

(1,693 posts)John Kelly ( his former Chief of Staff) said a very very evil person. As Michael Cohen said, a conman, liar and a cheat. Seems to me hes also a highly manipulative crazy psychopath who wants in the worst way to regain power. Sheesh.
Cant we all agree in this country that MAYBE Joe Biden or a guy like Larry Hogan ( a sane moderate republican) would be a better choice if a republican were to win the presidency. Of course, those of us on here want Joe Biden, to win, or another quality Democrat, of which we have plenty available that arent crazy. Failing that at least if we had a balanced, moderate Republican in there like Hogan or Liz Cheney, as an example, we dont have to worry about some fucking crazy lunatic, trying to take us out of NATO amongst other things along with Stephen Miller as his gestapo disciple, rounding up all the illegal people that have come into the country, and shipping them out all over the world.
There are so many bad things that would happen if Trump were to get re-elected that my guess is it would parallel what Hitler did when he came into power. Within four months, Germany was completely transformed into an awful totalitarian police state where the gestapo and SS had the power to shoot somebody in the street if they felt like it warranted it, with no repercussions.

(10,471 posts)Nikki Haley hasn't won bupkus. She got beat out in Nevada by "None of these candidates."
Liz Cheney isn't running. Larry Hogan has thrown his hat in the ring for Senator. However - as a Marylander - I predict that he won't win the primary unless he's the only one running. His hand-picked successor got walloped by a MAGAt, who in turn got walloped by political newcomer Wes Moore. Marylanders realize that a vote for Hogan is a vote for Mitch McConnell and other MAGAts. Even if he does win, Hogan will be politically isolated as a moderate in an increasingly crazy Republican party. He'll be about as effective as Mitt Romney is.

He's like their God. If a Repub wins it's because of him. If a Repub loses it's all their fault. He takes credit for the good but never for the bad.

(395 posts)From Brothers Karamazov (Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky translation):
A man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point where he does not discern any truth either in himself or anywhere around him, and thus falls into disrespect towards himself and others. Not respecting anyone, he ceases to love, and having no love, he gives himself up to passions and coarse pleasures .... A man who lies to himself is often the first to take offense.

He lost the popular vote in 2016 by 3 million, the popular vote by 8 million in 2020, he lost the House
& the Senate in 2018, he had 5 or 6 states flip on him in 2020, 2022 was a republican blood bath, and
NYs 3rd district was a referendum on him and the taking away of a womans right to have legal health
care which was his and the people who he put on the SCOTUS goal.
Please GOP keep this guy as the face of your party.

(6,236 posts)Mazi didn't go all MAGA for Trump; she's what passes for a moderate Republican. Of course that might be just to get elected in a district that isn't all that MAGA.
Also, it didn't help her in Trump's eyes to be a black African woman who became a US citizen in 2009, so he didn't endorse her, and even accused her of maybe being a Democrat.
Well, Suozzi IS a Democrat, and he now holds the seat.

No way. He doesn't respect ANYthing, or anyone. He doesn't give his crappy pants about the "Republican party"???? He is the one and only in his delusional, syphilitic, Swiss cheese mind.

"The only math problem on the mock assessment was a serial sevens test, which requires the subject to count backwards in increments of seven, starting with the number 100."
"During a New Hampshire campaign stop Wednesday, Trump boasted about how he aced a cognitive test with questions including identifying animal shapes that progressively got harder, and included complex math problems."
