Ron desantis doesn t want to cross donald trump. if you re a politician or a boxer, whatever you are, if you are a wide receiver against a cornerback, you line up and go, oh, i can beat this guy. you can just tell. you can just tell looking at ron desantis, he doesn t want to cross donald trump. certainly not on the debate stage. that s just not going to end well. so, the republicans, because they don t have what it takes, i won t use the word, there s not a republican who has what it takes to cross donald trump, he ll win the nomination. crazy will be back. i mean, that is going to be the new fall color. old is new again, right? they ll be wearing that another year, through 2024. too early on nauseous. let s figure this out. what s going to happen? oh, they re going to lose the
They all lie in committee hearing meetings. they all lie for a man who has said, and he can t lie his way out of this because he wrote it, he wants to terminate the constitution of the united states. and this republican party that was so shocked and stunned and deeply saddened about bill clinton, they are going to nominate him. he is going to run for president, and they re all going to get behind him again. but, joe, what s so funny about that almost, if you know the destruction of democratic norms, if there is anything humorous about that at all, is that most of those republicans do not want donald trump back. yet, they are such wimps that they re going to just go along with it. he ll probably end up in exactly the same point. at least in the 2016 primary, you would have republican opposition candidates going up against donald trump and trying
first of all, ted yelling about the most politicized department of justice ever, following donald trump s justice department. and barr, who played, again, who just played donald trump s lackey until the very end when he decided, well, i have to get out and write a book about how i won the war. it s mind-boggling. then you ve got, you know, these guys pick up things off the internet. they actually have the temerity to act shocked and then ask merrick garland, do you take long guns after little children? like, what are they doing? this is like this is like, who is the oldest republican ever in thurmond? chuck grassley. i thought you meant in history. grassley. yeah. grassley. what is it with these people, going, oh, they re taking ar-15s and kicking down doors and shooting people.
