Is jhmd running? Is that why he can’t post anymore behind an anonymous username?
He is not quite as bad since he continued in politics post governorship. He has ties to Florida and SC. The Appalachian Trail incident is very Trumpesque. Would be interesting to see someone other than a Democrat bring some heat to Trump.
As long as there is somebody he needs to focus on - someone who will relentlessly antagonize him and with a clear flaw (Sanford and Weld are ideal) - then Trump and his social media machine will be tired once we get to the general.
The Republican Party is broken for the next decade post-Trump, but they could send out a sacrificial candidate to do some damage to Trump (body shots) and distract him from the Dems until the general.
You underestimate the Republican party.
Twenty percent of all federal circuit court judges were appointed by Trump and pushed through by McConnell. These are lifetime appointments handed out to people in their 30s. Twenty percent of judgeships in 2 years. McConnell held these seats open for a reason.
Joe Walsh is running against Trump.
Good for him. His staunch opposition to Trump has been a surprise.
