I agree, but GOP Senators are refusing to acknowledge the elephant in the room: The GOP is leaderless. No leader and no direction. Solve those two issues and there is no one like Donald Trump bogging the party down.

I don't think he can win. As scary as Biden being reelected is, the notion of the Dems replacing him with someone like Newsome is even scarier.


Republican senators are warning that criminal charges hanging over former President Trump will give the GOP a bad look if he is the party’s eventual nominee, especially in a year when Republicans are eager for a chance to retake the Senate.
While GOP senators have accused Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (https://thehill.com/people/alvin-bragg/)(D) of waging a politically motivated prosecution of Trump, they acknowledge it nevertheless will hurt their chances in the 2024 election if charges are still hanging over Trump next summer and fall.

Then, there's this little gem, straight from the horse's mouth. Comparing himself to Nixon. Guess he's forgetting the part where what Nixon did was illegal, and he was forced to resign or face impeachment.

Between Biden and Trump, I'm not sure there's an ounce of reality to be had.

Yeah, because Trump himself isn't a "bad look" for the party...

:rolleyes:
