I listed to an interview with Stefanic on Sunday
Stefanik has a 48 rating from Heritage. A 44 from the ACU. And a 35 from Club for Growth, lower than Ilhan Omar’s rating.
She voted against the second biggest accomplishment of Trump’s presidency - the tax cuts.

The commitment to Trump is all-consuming. People say in the hypothetical that X or Y or Z would end their support of him. Then X or Y or Z happens and they continue to support him. It will likely continue until it cannot continue.
Agreed.
Neocon Haley is a bridge too far, but nobody got even slightly uncomfortable with Trump having Daniels to do BLM/CRT bidding against one of the country's boldest leaders against those evil ideologies? Give me a break.

It's true that the rest of the world knows "when the cat's away, the mice will play," and that the Presidential Diaper Filler in the WH is no one to fear, so global activity has increased.
But apart from that, you've been reading too many Facebook memes.
Trump poured gasoline on just about every US conflict he inherited.
Yemen—Trump actually vetoed bipartisan efforts of Congress to stop the support for Saudi and UAE intervention in Yemen. He literally vetoed bills that would have stopped us from sending weapons into that conflict (at your tax dollar's expense).
Iran—Do you not remember Trump assassinating Qasem Soleimani? That could have easily led to a war with Iran.
Syria/Iran—Trump launched airstrikes into Syria in retaliation for a chemical attack and generally antagonized Iran in his quest to destroy ISIS.
Trump also sold A LOT of weapons during his term to dictators around the world, which is not really a recipe for peace.
Now here's the thing...I don't buy into this "no wars" Tucker Carlson populist nonsense. If the United States goes Jimmy Carter on the world, the world will become more dangerous and will begin to creep toward some kind of WWIII moment.
So I don't mind those actions of Trump's I just posted above. Good for him. IMO the less the rest of the world fears our involvement, the more dangerous it becomes and the closer we get to the kind of nonsense that requires a draft to be reinstated and a massive loss of life to repeat itself.
But you're not going to sell, "I'm voting for Trump because I don't want my tax dollars to go to war, etc." to me. If Trump does the same sorts of things he did during his first presidency while Russia is still fighting Ukraine and Hamas is still fighting Israel, we're going to war the second time around, guaranteed.

That ticket will not win.

Please, please dear God make this happen.

I don't like her! Hope he picks a better fit and let Nikki fade into the sunset with her obnoxious arse.

Would be fitting though... Trump only picks the best

There are things that do not move the needle, should move the needle and will move the needle. Nikki on the ballot will move the needle for many. Daniels to do BLM/CRT bidding should have moved the needle but did not for many. Nikki on the ballot means no vote for me as the needle would be pegged.

No chance. Trump still crows about his vaccine and even the most hard core, "they're trying to control the population" anti-vax zealots still make excuses or completely look past it.

I'd have to think long and hard about whether to vote for Trump, if he was stupid enough to do this.
