Donald Trump threats as usual…….
It’s NOT about the party….
It’s about Donald J. Trump….
Take NO prisoners…..
Former President Trump on Wednesday railed against GOP primary opponent Nikki Haley and warned that anyone who contributes to her campaign would be “permanently barred from the MAGA camp.”
“When I ran for Office and won, I noticed that the losing Candidate’s ‘Donors’ would immediately come to me, and want to ‘help out.’ This is standard in Politics, but no longer with me,” Trump wrote in a post on his Truth Social platform.
“Anybody that makes a ‘Contribution’ to Birdbrain, from this moment forth, will be permanently barred from the MAGA camp. We don’t want them, and will not accept them, because we Put America First, and ALWAYS WILL!” Trump continued, using the nickname “Birdbrain,” to refer to Haley.
Trump’s direct threat against Haley’s supporters signals a sharpening in his rhetoric, as the former president seeks to compel support from all corners of the GOP……
…
In recent weeks, Trump has managed to gain numerous high-profile endorsements, even from some lawmakers who had once criticized him as unfit for office.
Sens. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), John Cornyn (R-Texas) and Deb Fischer (R-Neb.) all recently endorsed Trump. He also secured endorsements from former GOP primary opponents, including Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis,Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.), biotech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy and North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum, among others….
What about “ the party?”
Trump is lordmaster over “ the party.”
Like most authoritarians he equates himself as “ the party” and to a large degree he’s right.The overwhelming majority of Republicans support him and around 40% in various polls have said that Trump is more important to them than the Republican Party.
You don’t like this and don’t want to admit it.
Too bad it’s the way it is and yes it will likely have an effect on Nikki Haley’s fundraising ,particularly among large contributors who are going to think twice before angering the owner of the Republican Party any further.
I don’t accept the idea that he ‘owns’ the party….
He doesn’t….
I have served up proof that there ARE some lawmakers and thosands of GOPer’s that have and will continue to NOT support or vote FOR the ex-President….
So far?
Haley IS STILL getting more money….
But YES….
With Trump crying.…
Already there IS pressure for her to quit the race….
I hope Haley realizes she has nothing to lose and goes full bore into Trump. After that “victory” speech where the fat slob had the balls to rip into her dress (something a rapist has experience with) she should realize her continued existence as a woman who doesn’t bow to him pisses him off to no end.
She has no chance to take the nomination from him. But if he drops dead or is convicted and poll numbers for Trump go from dashboard warning lights the RNC can kind of ignore to smoking engine why would she want to be the 8th contender who backtracked and kissed Trump’s rotund ass?
Better to be the one who warned everyone than having to explain why you didn’t.
