Donald Trump paraded a string of defeated opponents-turned-endorsers in a final raucous show of strength Monday night ahead of the New Hampshire primary.
The presence of former rivals on stage has been a key part of Trump's closing strategy as he looks to crush his last remaining opponent in record time.
'Now is the time for the Republican Party to come together,' said Trump as he introduced his new allies on stage.
'We have to unify. That's why I'm delighted to be joined today by a number of outstanding leaders, big leaders, powerful leaders, greatly respected leaders.'

I guess desanctus was home in Florida, busy figuring out how to mess with Trump
Really? You actually believe that the taxpayers in Florida should pay a private citizen’s legal fees?
Vivek is being talked about as VP now
DeSantis already announced he was backing Trump. Nothing suspicious about him not being there. He is Governor you know.
So, what's Doug Burgum?
He really raped you, didn’t he?
Tim Scott works for Trump’s enemies. He is sucking up to Trump to gain an inside spot to report on them and help betray him should he win. Trump won’t see this, as his #1 weakness is trusting people who flatter him.
Hmmmm....
Did you say anything when desanctus spent $19 million to fly around 700 people, many not floridians, out of Israel as a p.r. stunt for his presidential campaign
Or how about hen desantis directs $92 million to make changes to a highway that increases the value and access to a housing developer?
The Florida Department of Transportation directed the money to fund a highway interchange backed by developer Mori Hosseini, who is building 1,300-some homes and an outdoor shopping mall on land abutting the planned interchange.
The interstate project includes several partial access roads onto Hosseini’s property, plans that were not included in the initial design for the “Woodhaven” development, according to the Post, which noted other developments will also benefit from the new exits.
Even better, when the RGA gave something like $20 million to desantis while he was governor, which he laundered into his presidential campaign?
That $20 million could have helped many other republicans into office as governor....
Not much going on in North Dakota...
I guess desantis doesn’t think much is happening in Florida, either, since he announced he was running for president back in May, 2023 and had been absent, campaigning since then....
Vivek is going home if he doesn’t get to be Iron Man ...
The DDS (DeSantis Derangement Syndrome) is strong in this one. But we need to cut him some slack. With DeSantis suspending his campaign, the poster doesn’t know what to do. He is obviously in withdrawal. He will probably start posting anti-DeSantis screeds on football threads soon. He is a troubled man. We probably need to keep an eye on him in case he starts doing something like making threats against barnyard animals or something.
I just hope Trump lands a TKO tonight.
You can’t help yourself , can you
Can’t go a day without your obsession with the man
Even when the article has nothing to do with him
says the poster that says they won’t be voting for Trump
Hmmmm....My lifelong values—or the flavor of the day politician. Forced to choose, it’s no contest. I’ll stick with my values.

I think DeSantis should keep his powder dry. Trump in Laconia was sweating profusely and talking gibberish as he tried to read from the teleprompter. This is happening more and more frequently, and Democrats are picking up on it.
Trump looks like he’s running out of gas. At 77+ years old he’s certainly not the picture of health and he looks every minute of his age. Republicans who are putting all their eggs in one basket are in for a rude awakening. Watch Trump closely. He’s certainly not the man he was four years ago.
I want to see a current, extensive medical record that shows his medications, blood pressure, and cholesterol levels. He was taking a statin drug in 2018. Is he still on it? That and a daily aspirin are telltale signs that primary voters shouldn’t ignore.
His doctor apparently was concerned about a stroke or heart attack five years ago given Trump’s poor diet and lack of exercise. Trump’s been under a lot of stress. That’s difficult even for a young person. Trump isn’t superman, despite what people on this forum may think.
November is months away—an eternity in politics. Anything can happen. Republicans better have a plan B. And no, it isn’t Nikki Haley or Ramaswamy. DeSantis should be on standby. Floridians shouldn’t pay Trump’s legal bills. That idea is so preposterous it’s laughable.
So what you said, can’t be because you are a nevertrumper, can it?
I’m with you. Trump is just plain disgusting. DeSantis is from a blue-collar background. His father worked in a steel mill near Pittsburgh. His family still lives there. Trump was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Probably Daddy’s money got him into Penn.

The Ukraine people will likely implode soon enough as well.
Things will get ugly.
Darkest before dawn…
I just hope Trump lands a TKO tonight.
>>>Let’s hope for a straight forward KO with no technicalities.
