Sununu Trashes Senator Tim Scott

I do not believe there is a more honest and forthright person in the federal gov't than Tim Scott, and I say that as a resident in Texas rather than South Carolina. The fact the Ms Haley originally appointed him to the Senate means nothing; he should be able to endorse and support whoever he wants to.
 
Very likely. The “average” GOP voter is a MAGA Trump supporter, about to make a terrible mistake in supporting the unprincipled criminal demagogue who tried to steal the last election.

This is nonsense. It is a brainless move to support Trump, the “MAGA” candidate — even if you are fed up with most Democratic Party policies. Those who believe in “MAGA” are not voting for Conservatism but for a dangerous form of authoritarian reactionary populism, which has no precedent in American history, except perhaps in the 19th century “Know Nothing” Movement.

Of course many will vote for Trump even while noting many of his faults, thinking that there are still plenty of U.S. institutions that can limit any damage he might cause when he again breaks laws or acts criminally in a second term. Personally I doubt that— if he is elected — normal institutional guardrails will be sufficient this time around to fence Trump in. In any case we should not take this chance.

We have seen that there were precious few in the Republican Party who risked their political careers by frankly and consistently opposing Trump, including many who knew better all along.

Especially if Repubs win control of Congress in 2024, there will be few forces outside of the “Trump Party” able to oppose him. Trump remains an existential danger to the U.S. Republic, to our real interests and to the interests of our longtime allies. His election would be a gift to authoritarians like Putin & XiJinping — who he openly admires — and strongly weaken democratic and personal freedom everywhere.
No offense but that was a piss poor analysis. "Authoritarian reactionary populism"? WTF? Authoritarianism and populism are basically opposites. A Trump election is a "danger to our republic"? Our republic is in the greatest danger TODAY, since the Civil War (open border, weak military, inflation, disrespect for workers-taxpayers, confiscation of rights, vilification of law enforcement, woke insanity etc.). As far as Putin and Xi go, Trump controlled both of them whereas Biden kisses their asses and then they let him shake them down. Personal freedom? We have never had so many mandates, censorship, attempts to confiscate guns, legalization of crimes, and outright disdain and disregard for our constitution as we have right now. Trump is easily superior in every way except maybe for his abrasive personality, and it will probably take that kind of personality to straighten out the mess Biden has made. Back to MAGA
