Thank you, David. You make good points concerning Donald Trump owning the Republican Party. I must share with you that if there was any way the Republicans could "lick the cream" left behind by Trump, they would gladly do so. However, I have three points: First, what was proven during the 2020 election was, Donald Trump will stop at nothing to be reinstated as President. No matter how hard they beg, each and every time he is campaigning for the Republicans, he will continue to repeat that he won, "by a landslide". Oh, how the Republicans would love not having to "buy into this". But they will be forced to, and more. Perhaps he will require them to ,"jump off the Brooklyn Bridge" - there will come a breaking point for them.. Secondly, Mitch McConnell, and all he stands for within the Party. Trump won't share! He senses the power of Mitch McConnell, and knows full well how McConnell will not stand up and "pledge allegiance to the "big lie". Donald Trump is going to take direct aim at McConnell over and over again, causing a hostile rift right down the middle of the Party. Finally, 2024 is coming. Those within the Party that want to run for President will have to step away from Trump. They now want to be President - not Trump ... again. They will have to tear him down to elevate themselves. Time is up, Donald. Thank you, David, Susan Lashbrook Morris
