covid, yes. name calling? Well that was ok when he was on Desantis' side. Now, not so much. Alex Azar and Trump, horrible, that's for sure.

I find it interesting that Desantis is quicker to boycott MSNBC before railing against Trump. Trump, the guy who gave you traction in the first place, yet now someone is the enemy. Very strange.

Lol, You're really reaching if that's all you got these days..

Another Trump official found guilty - why didn't Trump pardon all of these people before he left office? Trump will be found guilty of felonies in the same jurisdiction as this case was tried.

Trump White House official Navarro convicted of contempt after defying House Jan. 6 subpoena

WASHINGTON (AP) Trump White House official Peter Navarro was found guilty Thursday of contempt of Congress charges for refusing to cooperate with a congressional investigation into the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.

The verdict came after a short trial for Navarro, who served as a White House trade adviser under President Donald Trump and later promoted the Republican's baseless claims of mass voter fraud in the 2020 election he lost.

Navarro was the second Trump aide to face contempt of Congress charges after former White House adviser Steve Bannon. Bannon was convicted of two counts and was sentenced to four months behind bars, though he has been free pending appeal.

Navarro vowed to appeal the verdict, saying the "die was cast" after a judge ruled that he couldn't fight the charges by arguing he couldn't cooperate with the committee because Trump had invoked executive privilege.

Trump is the opponent. The guy that allowed and encouraged covid insanity. The guy that's been constantly attacking DeSantis from the left. The guy that has been using childish insults and name calling. The guy that may destroy our country by handing the election to the democrats a second time.

Just change "may" to "most assuredly without a doubt"

and it's 100% spot on.

So what you are saying is, depending on how you conduct yourself and make sure you have your ducks lined up in a row, you can win in court? I thought that was impossible to do now.

Interesting poll of likely R voters...

I was surprised to see Trump actually perform well with mothers...

The female vote is supposed to be one of his weaknesses...

It's only impossible if you suck at actually governing and leading as was demonstrated by the Trump Administration.

it's not that hard to do if you are competent, well educated on the issues and have a strategic plan as exists in the DeSantis Administration.

Bill Barr is dead right about Trump.

Bill Barr, in 90 seconds, perfectly describes this entire situation with Trump. Absolutely spot on take. We’ve all seen enough evidence to know what he’s saying is 100% true.

the only thing that is hard to believe is that Don Junior would ever call for an "adult in the room"

considering he is even more of a juvenile than his near 80 year old father.

A number of Donald Trump's allies are growing concerned that his lead in Iowa's first-in-the-nation caucuses isn't built to last.

Trump supporters are trying to beef up the campaign's lean Iowa operation with more experienced hires.

They are scrambling to fill roles handling regional political work around the state jobs that "should have been filled six to eight months ago," according to one Republican operative based in Iowa.

And they are preparing for months of battle against Republican presidential opponents who trail badly in the polls but have built better machinery to find and secure votes, according to interviews with a dozen sources including longtime Trump campaign allies, state and local officials in Iowa and GOP strategists.

I laughed when I read that, Jr is as immature as they come

MAGA efforts have been reduced to people talking trash online. Very few of them are willing to get out and do ground work, mostly because Trump has told them it isn't necessary because he is inevitable.

To visit Iowa is to understand that our farmers are the greatest stewards of our land. The sustainable practices and methods they develop preserve our natural resources for the next generation. Oppressive government policies like the Green New Deal and WOTUS fail to respect farmers' natural care for the land while prioritizing ideology over practicality. I will repeal all of Biden's harmful regulations on Day 1 and empower our farmers to make the most of our nation's land.

With farmers aging and facing uncertain profitability, we need policies that support young farmers and the industry long-term. Reduced capital gains taxes, wider expensing for land development, investment credits for conservation practices, and better land transfer options would help grow the next generation of farmers. There should be no "death tax" for family farms.

As always leading the way, I haven't seen other candidates call this out yet.

Just a few months after ending the COVID “public health emergency,” the Governor of New Mexico has declared a new “public health emergency”: Guns. She is now asserting the power to infringe on Second Amendment rights by executive fiat.

This assertion is not surprising — since… https://t.co/gQf0EiPkcE

If Noem wants to endorse Trump that's fine but this is complete BS by her. BTW, she only kept SD open because her Legislature forced her to.

This video is hilarious. What a clown.

She’s endorsing Trump while lecturing about how the government (= the Trump admin) forced lockdowns on people and then inferring DeSantis went along with it when he did the exact opposite.

Alternate reality.

Thus encapsulating the single most important issue for desantis supporters.

False. It's personal liberty. We don't want COVID tyrants like Trump, Fauci, and Noem.

Mixed reaction of cheers and boos for Trump at the game.

Brother TRM-

what possible explanation could there be as to WHY Trump is not campaigning very hard, and not doing too much in Iowa?

it can't be solely because of hubris and an egotistical belief- because clearly Trump does NOT believe his own BS postings about him being 50 points ahead.

Impossible, I've been told nonstop by the few remaining always trumpers that this spoiled supposed billionaire who has never gotten his hands dirty once in his life is a man of the people!

Stormy Daniels knows that finger well.

it is weird that Trump is not pumping millions into Iowa

is it that he is afraid to be seen without a massive rally?
