why are the Republicans in congress fear Trumps threat to put somebody up against him/her.
Elected MAGA have no fear, they simply do what Trump orders or suggests them to do. The others range from moderate to more conservative, but not necessarily Trump sycophants, have power or the perception of power and don't want to lose it. I think they see it as an avenue to actually get some things done, but not necessarily Trump's radical restructuring of government. You can't get those things done sitting on the outside while crazy Trumpists are destroying America. O the threat is real enough ... once MAGA is aroused.
The only question is whether the Democrats can get themselves somebody to lead them.
I see a lot of smart people but none having a real presidential persona. I like Buttigieg. If he had debated Trump it would have been the most comedic massacre on any side of the Mississippi. I suspect he may be gearing up for a run in 28.
all Democrats WILL VOTE! Trump, right now, is not making a lot of friends.
I think "P" said it already ... non-MAGA voted against Biden's economy. What you're saying is, non-MAGA and Democrats will vote against Trump's currently bungled attempts at running an economy.
It's in my signature ... we can survive bad policy but Trump appears to be on the threshold of completely destroying Democracy. Already he has emergency powers to implement tariffs without Congressional consent, and now he wants to invoke the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 tantamount to emergency war powers. With it he can deport non-citizens and apparently (and I am speculating) there is nothing in the language to prevent him from sending citizens to gitmo. Next will be the Insurrection Act of 1807 and I believe there are enough crazies in the military who would follow orders. O did you say something about next election .... LOL ... only in your wildest dreams will he allow another free and fair election.
