That’s as good a picture of possibilities as any.
I’m hoping for the best (for President Trump), but expecting the worst (for the country either way).
To clarify, if by some miracle Trump is elected president, the country will explode on the left. If Trump is defeated, the country will explode on the right.
We’re not in a good place.
I remember Zeldin saying that the fix was in for Rona. That was in early December, 2022!
Lee Zeldin won’t run for RNC chair, says fix is in for Ronna McDaniel
Remember, it's the state's party chairs and two selected committeemen from each state who vote for the national party chair. Many of them are still likely GOPe.
It's likely Rona did indeed have the votes early, without Trump's endorsement, and Trump had no leverage to change that.
Yeah, I know it’s the State Chairs decision. I agree with you that many of them are GOPe but a Trump endorsement of his attorney Dhillon would have forced them to publicly defend their backing of McDaniel\Romney. If that had happened, it might make it easier to dislodge some of them.
LOL. DeSantis is “crushing” it for conservatives as governor of Florida? What’s Trump doing these days besides running his mouth?
Perhaps. But if you can't dislodge the GOPe types who vote for the RNC Chair, then you're left with an RNC Chair that you must work with, who you worked against.
Zeldin thought defeating Rona in early December wasn't doable.
I have no idea how many of them were fraudulent and neither do you. Part of the problem is that the left has legalized what would have traditionally been considered fraud, so what is the point of arguing? You're either ballot harvesting or you're losing, and loser-in-chief had the opportunity to help make urgent changes at the RNC or sit on his arse and he chose the latter. He has endorsed Romney multiple times - oh, I'm sorry, stayed "neutral" this time around, which is a de-facto endorsement of the incumbent. Ask Iowa Governor Kim Renyolds whether Trump respects neutrality in any race involving him.
He picked her in 2016 to replace Preibus and then endorsed her in 2019 and 2021 RNC elections
I know that.
But your claim was about the RNC chair election "we just had".
You're claim:
He has endorsed Romney multiple times - oh, I'm sorry, stayed "neutral" this time around, which is a de-facto endorsement of the incumbent. Ask Iowa Governor Kim Renyolds whether Trump respects neutrality in any race involving him.
No, staying neutral after endorsing somebody in the past, is exactly that. It's half a down grade. Criticize that if you want, but don't give me this embellished "defacto endorsement" stuff. It's not!

Trump didn't disrespect Reynolds. That was done by the Big Media headline writers using words like "attack" in the headlines. Once again, that's more embellishment to Get Trump.
Trump simply described the history of his endorsement of Reynolds and then her neutrality. He then declared his neutrality about her by saying that he will no longer be promoting her at rallies.

Yep, he just casually observed her neutrality in a dispassionate way.
