Trump Backed Candidates Are on Track to Get Smoked in General

At this point I'm not sure it makes any difference. We might as well wedge the throttle wide open, throw it in (D) and watch it sail over a cliff and into the void.

It’ll be interesting, for sure. The dude is a very polarizing character. Some people (Rs included, but pretty much all the Ds) won’t vote for anyone associated with him. Some people (nearly exclusively R) won’t vote for anyone NOT associated with him. Of course, some are in the middle. I don’t know for sure which group is larger, but if I was running as an R, not being endorsed by him might be the safer bet. I would think there is little to be gained, and much to lose. Basically, I suspect that most voters that prefer a Trump-endorsed candidate are going to vote R, with or without the endorsement, so why risk it?

It's already a big mess, and people can see that Dem policies are crap.

I can tell by the campaign adds. NOT ONE add aimed at any left wing ideas at all. Most of them calling their rivals liberals... or penis head, Mark "Howard Walowitz" Kelly, trying to appear center aisle.

They damned sure know they CAN NOT win on their policies and ideas, so it's back to vote fraud.

My apologies for my state being unwilling or unable to clean House and shitcah Newhouse and Herrera-Beutler.

I'm over Trump and his narcissism. I voted for him twice and would hold my nose and vote for him a third time if he won the primary, but I'm NOT voting for him in the primary (I didn't in 2016, went for Cruz). I will readily admit that he should be POTUS now but for FRAUD by the Democheats, so I'll give him that.....but he's not so I would like to see DeSantis run.

Hell, I'm voting for him for the entertainment reasons alone...watching the left & TDS'rs heads explode is just a bonus.

Anyone on the Right who stays home or votes D just because of DJT again needs their head examined after seeing what that has gotten us the last two years.

This is me. I voted for him last time because, despite all the craziness, I still thought he was better than Biden (which I still stand by). But good Lord, the dude is old as hell and the Presidency isn't owed to him. We have to bring in some younger blood. Definitely hoping for DeSantis this time.

Trump backed candidate for Gov of Maryland recently won the Republican primary.

So he can lose the general election. What purpose does that serve other than pleasing mouth breathers?
