You gotta wonder what Trump has on all these nitwits.
Profound and relatable nitwittery.

I can't imagine having to admit I am loyal to the party of Trump, Booboobert, Marge, and that icky Gaetz missing link. The list is much longer but you get the idea.

Take some comfort from that - it means 50% of Republican caucus goers wanted someone else. Trump can’t win the general with half of Republican voters. He needs virtually all Republicans and a significant percentage of independents.
If Iowa is any indication, things don’t look good for Trump.

50% of Republican voters wanted someone other than Trump as the Republican candidate. Many of them will still vote the party in November even if it means voting for Trump.
Turnout is crucial for Biden, just as it was in 2020.
Many will, but not all. Trump can’t win a general election with just ‘many’. And the Republican vitriol against Biden is so white-hot, the rank-and-file could very well start looking for a candidate in terms of electability.
Will Trump be the Republic nominee? Very likely. Does he have a lock on it after Iowa? Just ask President Ted Cruz.

Donald Trump lost three of his lawyers in one day when attorney Joe Tacopina filed a declaration requesting the withdrawal of his firm's representation of the former president in multiple lawsuits.
Most likely, although they will not admit it, they suddenly realized they cannot perform the Bigly Win in court.

More likely, the retainer has been spent and they fear getting stiffed. This case was never going to be won by TFG.

About 7 in 10 Iowans who caucused for Trump on Monday night said they have known all along that they would support a man who has remade the Republican Party through his “Make America Great Again” political movement. Trump was carried to victory by the majority of caucusgoers who say they back it, a sign of his growing influence in a state that denied him a victory eight years ago.
......
Trump performed strongly in small town and rural communities, where about 6 in 10 caucusgoers said they live. He won with white evangelical Christians, who are nearly half of the caucusgoers. He excelled among those without a college degree.

There's no such thing as a republican party anymore. The maga party systematically dismantled it and stole their money.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

The MAGA party is one I sure don't want to attend.
