Republicans view Trump as I viewed Tom Carper

Prior to Sarah McBride positioning herself a legitimate statewide candidate with the ability to knock off Tom Carper - I held the position that only the Grim Reaper could remove Carper. It seems many Republicans feel the same way about Trump.  They are stuck with him until he croaks: 
In his recent book Thank You for Your Servitude, my colleague Mark Leibovich quoted a former Republican representative who bluntly summarized his party’s plan for dealing with Trump: “We’re just waiting for him to die.” As it turns out, this is not an uncommon sentiment. In my conversations with Republicans, I heard repeatedly that the least disruptive path to getting rid of Trump, grim as it sounds, might be to wait for his expiration.

Two Things I Love About DeSantis’ Response to Trump

If you are not as obsessed with Trump v. DeSantis as I am - here is a quick recap:
The Loser Ex-President made campaign stops where he told reporters that DeSantis would be “disloyal” if he ran for the Republican nomination and he knocked DeSantis’ record on Covid-19. Desantis basically fired back with - Well I won my re-election, and you didn't, so the people have spoken. And also, suck it.
Here's what I love.  It ignores the BIG LIE and might be the first time I've heard a MAGAt say "Trump lost. Get over it."  That's good for America if civilian Republicans are now allowed to follow suit and acknowledge the simple truth - Trump is a loser who lost. The second thing I love is how the smug little fucker (DeSantis) smugly just shrugged off trump as a loser and that's pressing Trump's biggest button.  Trump hates being called a loser and to be called one by the a smug little twerp like DeSantis NO DOUBT landed in Mara Lago like a kick to the balls. It all adds up to Trump and DeSantis going full on berserker during this campaign, and that is great news for America.
