Ghost_MH Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Nothing will be learned from this because Trump-endorsed candidates lose ALL THE TIME. Nearly half of his endorsements in 2018 lost and he only did better in 2020 because the vast majority of his endorsements went to incumbents. Endorsements by Donald Trump - Ballotpedia BALLOTPEDIA.ORG Ballotpedia: The Encyclopedia of American Politics Why would anyone think any learning will happen?

Air_Delivery Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 For all the cock sucking Republicans do to Trump he has never demonstrated the ability to carry other candidates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwinIon Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Given that his endorsement seems more or less irrelevant, do we have much data of the reverse? We've seen so many GOP politicians go to the ends of reality to avoid pissing off Trump. Do we have many examples of how those that didn't kiss the ring fared in elections? Or are there just too few examples? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
