For the hundrenth time….
Donald Trump gets ‘His’ way against a Grand ole Party establishment who will NOT challange the Real Estate and Entertainment guy that stole their party from under them…..
“Long before Donald Trump publicly threatened to skip out on the first 2024 presidential primary debate, Republican National Committee officials knew he was going to be a problem,” the Daily Beast reports.
“Going back more than a year, the group charged with planning the GOP’s first primary debates since 2016 discussed the likelihood that the former president would skip the first one if Fox News ended up hosting, according to two RNC members familiar with the discussions.”
“At a more recent meeting, officials briefly entertained the idea of banning Trump from future debates if he didn’t show up in Milwaukee on Wednesday night.”
“Yet on both occasions, the RNC officials decided the best response was to do nothing.”

On the latest Pod Save Ameriva the guest was s former GOP strategist who worked for Jeb Bush. He said those who think there’s an appetite for a GlennYiungkin or Brian Kemp to come in and sweep the nomination away from Trump don’t know today’s GOP.
The one person he thought could come in late and possibly knock Trump off? The man who is interviewing him tomorrow night. Tucker Carlson.

There are people(well person) here who doesn’t understand today’s Republican Party.
Scott P says
Yes. Tim Miller is the former Republican strategist. And I agree with him that if Tucker Carlsom ran he’d be a strong contender.

Against Trump??????
Who WOULD TURN ON HIM in a Hot minute???!!!!
Let’s remember Carlson DID shit can Trump in private which cost him his job and Fox millions….
Just cause Trump sat down with the recently don’t mean Trump would spare the guy his wrath….
The ex-President is a user…
Carlson is expendable….
Again?
My feeling IS that Donald Trump is going down and will tear the ass out ‘his’ party on the way into the toilet…
Scott P says
I don’t think it’s at all likely rhar Carlson could enter late and take the nomination from Trump..
I just see that as mote likely than Glenn Youngkin or Brian Kemp being able to do it.
Youngkin and Kemp are just different faces offering the same Trump lite that most of the other contenders already are with no success.
Much like Trump himself in 2016 Carlson would be running as a media savvy barnburner with no interest in taking the party back to the Mitt Romney days or GW Bush days.
He’d be a thinner younger Trump who isn’t yet indicted.
jamesb says
Kemp IS the ANTI Trump?
Did NOT go along with the program….
Hmmmmmm?
Pence 2.0?
I agree Carlson is just a media prop…
It’s NOT enough…
jamesb says
They ALL go off the cliff together….
