Trump says it’s wonderful to see Powell being treated so beautifully, and may he rest in peace, and he gets condemned for that!

You obviously missed me writing "Of course Powell failed in the "is there a plausible exit strategy to avoid endless entanglement?"

Sometimes, saying what you think is counterproductive. Speaking ill of the recently dead is almost never helpful and in many cases, harmful. This is one of those occurrences.

"Susan Collins is just as much of a Republican as Jim Jordan. The only real Republicans-In-Name-Only are the ones who call themselves Republicans but work to elect Democrats, like the Lincoln Project or a large number of Freepers.

We'll have to dissagree. Collins is as much of a Republican as Jordon only when it comes to determining chamber leadership. Leadership is indeed important and that's why sometimes you have to pick your battles. Better to have a RINO in office and retain chamber leadership, than to vote the Rino out and lose leadership to the Democrats. Because then you have little control.

But when it comes to voting in line with Republican espoused ideals. Collins is a RINO and Jordan is not. Collins scored 43% by the American Conservative Union, whereas Jordan scored 100%. No comparison.

RINO's do a lot of damage. And we should primary them any time we have a strong candidate that can win in the general election. And sometimes even when we don't.

RINO's are why Republicans weren't able to take advantage of Trump's first two years. Trump was amazingly effective but he was a one man show. If the GOPe had been team players, Trump could have done far more.

I don’t see a ceiling on how many or where future supporters will jump on the America 1st train—especially after the debacle of president Fraud’s administration.

Non-trolls who love America & hate what president Fraud is doing to our nation.

I saw this on twitter “Trump did not put this out! All of his statements are on his Donaldtrump.com/news and this is not one of them”. Wondering if that is true.

" So yeah, I think in all the country lost a great General and leader in Colin Powell. Not a perfect man but one with principles whether you held the same ones or not."

country lost a great affirmative-action General and bleeding heart liberal, Blowin Bowel.

definitely Not a perfect soldier (I remember when Bush decided to push the Iraq army out of Kuwait, Blowin' Bowel whined about how the Iraq army was going to kick our ass) and one with principles! Well, Stalin had principles but I dare say no one on FR subscribes to those. Only liberals!

There was a coalition of two types of people who assembled together to get Trump elected president in 2016.

On one hand were his base of supporters who loved him and fully supported his MAGA agenda.

On the other hand were people who didn't like him at all but really, really, really f**king HATED Hillary Clinton!

He still has his base. They haven't left him. But if he wants to have a future in politics, he's going to need the other coalition of people who really don't like him but will have to bite their lip and vote for him anyways.

This doesn't help. All it does is remind these people that at the end of the day, Donald Trump has no class.

I love Trump too but I don’t like this message from him.

It’s always funny & entertaining hearing from keyboard “experts” what Trump should or shouldn’t do if “he wants a future in politics”.

Thanks for the giggle & have a great day.

That plays well to people who are already for him.

Not so well to those he'd have to win over in 2024.

Why? For speaking the truth?

🤔

It’s not a lie, or fake news.

“Trump has balls because he’s “fighting back” against a dead guy?”

So, you’ll be the first to say what a great person Obama is should he die. Got it. To cowardly to make any stand.

“Donald Trump has no class.”

Trump has shown more class to more people than anyone in politics that you can name. You just hate that he fights back.

If people are too stupid to understand what's at stake, they are beyond help.
