Even Republicans are ignoring him. Sad!


A historically bad night for Trump’s candidates

Three of them lost, which is unprecedented. Here’s how this compares to previous primary results.


Tuesday’s primaries were a historically bad one for Trump’s candidates.

Three lost, including two by wide margins.

In South Carolina, 2016 Republican National Convention speaker and pro-Trump pastor Mark Burns narrowly lost a primary runoff to nurse practitioner Sheri Biggs.

In Colorado, state Republican Party chairman Dave Williams lost by more than 30 points to conservative activist Jeff Crank.

And perhaps most stinging for Trump, his favored candidate in Utah to replace retiring Trump-antagonist Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) — Riverton Mayor Trent Staggs — lost to more-moderate Rep. John Curtis (R-Utah). Staggs currently trails by more than 20 points.

The three defeats for Trump-backed candidates in one night is unprecedented, according to Ballotpedia’s extensive compilation of Trump endorsees.


Some other key data points, via Ballotpedia:

  • Before Tuesday, only eight Trump-backed candidates had lost primaries for the House or Senate since 2018. And none had lost in 2024. If you include governor’s races, 12 Trump-backed candidates have lost primaries.
  • Eight of those 12 primary losses did come in 2022, as the Republican Party flirted with charting a new course after Trump’s 2020 loss and the Jan. 6 insurrection. They included three losses in gubernatorial primaries and three losses in Georgia, which bucked Trump in the primaries more than any other state did.
  • The three 2022 losses in Georgia were spaced out between the primary and a later primary runoff, meaning the trio of losses Trump experienced Tuesday has never happened before.
  • The Tuesday losses are more than occurred in all of 2018 or 2020.

No one gives a **** about GOP primaries.
Voters pick who they want, if they win in November its all good.
 

Trump's steady drop in the polls may be largely due to his targeted less-educated white guys beginning to notice that the rich degenerate is screwing them bigly.

Education has been becoming a bigger divide in politics.

Whether or not you have a college degree seems to be one of the biggest predictors of how you're going to vote. If you have a college degree, more likely than not, you're voting Democratic. If you don't, more likely than not now, you're voting Republican...

This is reflected in the contrasting voting patterns of the best-educated states and the least-educated states.

Trump's attacking academia is consistent with his divisive agenda. Resentment is a powerful motivator.
 
Trump is plummeting, and his carcass will land on Congressional Republicans.

"I've fallen and I can't get up" Trump's relentless tantrum now targets even those who have aided and abetted him.


Trump is increasingly at the mercy of forces he unleashed but can’t control — so he’s taking aim at the umpires.
Gas prices surging. Unemployment climbing. War with Iran threatening to engulf his presidency. The fracturing of his political coalition. The collapse of his signature trade-negotiations-by-tariff strategy. Relentless scrutiny of the Epstein files. A public backlash to his agenda that could swamp Republicans in the midterms. Failure after failure to criminalize the conduct of his political adversaries.
So it was, in a fit of Sunday night fury that set Washington’s armchair psychoanalysts ablaze, that the president channeled his rage at the few functioning checks on his power: the media, independent regulators and — most pointedly — the federal judiciary.
Trump’s Sunday night outburst took on all of them, but it was most notable for how he cast the Supreme Court — one that has staved off the destruction of his agenda and even his own criminal prosecution — as “a weaponized, and unjust Political Organization.”
“This completely inept and embarrassing Court was not what the Supreme Court of the United States was set up by our wonderful Founders to be,” the president blared on Truth Social. “They are hurting our Country, and will continue to do so.”

Perhaps, the most revealing Republican defeat, as Democrats have flipped 30 seats in a row, was Brian Nathan’s Florida Senate seat win, despite him being outspent and outfundraised.

Florida Phoenix reported beyond his opponent’s huge fundraising advantage over Nathan, a political action committee worth more than $3 million was also aiding her effort.

Republicans also enjoyed a voter registration advantage in the district overall, according to numbers from Feb. 23. Of the 299,317 registered voters, 116,095 were Republican, 93,403 Democrats, and 79,944 had no party affiliation.

Nathan's victory margin was .05% and must be confirmed by a recount.
 
The lesson of electing a felon and scumbag is obvious - never assume Americans are smart or educated or sensible enough to elect a woman. Any male would have beat Trump, but America's back roads are so backward the devil could have won. Kinda simple really.
