Republicans Gather To Debate Who Will Lose To Trump In A Distant Second

MILWAUKEE, WI — Eight Republicans will take the debate stage tonight to help determine which lucky candidate will lose horribly to former President Donald Trump.

"It's a great opportunity," said the guy with glasses, who is apparently running for president. "I expect a fierce battle tonight over who gets to be absolutely slaughtered by Trump in the primary."

The former president has held a commanding lead in all polls to this point despite facing multiple federal indictments, which has voters asking the question of why so many candidates continue to remain in the race. "It is a great question," said a person calling himself Doug, who is apparently governor somewhere. "Do the rest of us have any chance? No. Are we all wasting vast amounts of money by doing this? Yes. Still, it gives me a slim chance of being the next Pete Buttigieg. I could sit at home in pajamas for the next four years and collect a fat paycheck while the country burns. That's the dream, man."

Former Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson, who was mistaken for an employee at the debate venue, agrees that the event is important. "No, really, I'm an actual politician," said Mr. Hutchinson. "I just want someone, somewhere to know how to pronounce my name. It's not one you would guess, okay? I need this."

At publishing time, Trump announced he would be filling his cabinet with Mike Lindell clones and that all the losers at the debate were completely wasting their time.

I thought the Bee was a satire site and not current events.

We are all mortal. We need someone to fill in if, God forbid, Trump cannot run.

Doesn’t make any difference......The FDA, CDC, DOJ and CIA are setting up for mandatory masking and many restrictions on travel, schooling and any other controls to counteract the coming Covid out of Canada. It is really another 2020 election all over again to stop Trump from winning in 2024 by ballot harvesting, mail in balloting so the Dems candidate will win by fraudulent vote count.

The debates kind of ring hollow. I can’t imagine any of them saying anything novel or interesting.

But this doesn’t belong in the Babylon Bee. It’s the straight up truth.

If it IS satire, wait a week or two and it won’t be.

Savage and funny as hell.

You’re not following the FR plan, man. You’ve read the replies; you’ve seen the threads.

Trump could die, be jailed for 20 years, just quit or all of the above...

And FReepers would still vote for him/write his name in.

What I’m waiting for, what will lol me is.... What will these only Trumpers do when Trump picks a VP that they hate? Will they really abandon Trump as they say?

It’s too bad Kemp & Youngkin don’t jump in the Republican Primary Carousel.(The More the Merrier)

Republican voters need to actually witness all the Republican “talent” I keep hearing about.(sarcasm)
“Talent” that hasn’t done squat but fill up their wallets & purses with cash, while dissing Trump & his supporters.

I like how the media keeps saying “DeSantis will be at Center Stage”. Actually, he an Vivek will be at the center, each with 3 candidates outside of them. Not a good look for DeSantis sharing center stage with a virtual unknown like Vivek.

I wont.

I don’t care if Trump picks you as his VP, I’m still voting for him.
