So, I gotta disagree that beating Trumpism consistently in national elections is the way to showing its vacuous-ness. It has lost the last three national elections ('16, '18, '20) and only gained power in one of them because of the unique construction of our electoral framework. It's never had popular majority support, it disgusts more Americans than it activates, and in four years it cost the GQP the House, the Senate, and the WH....and that STILL wasn't enough to break its hold. So lets stop acting like him losing in a primary or in '24 will make it go away, it's not. This is going to be a decade plus fight and we need to all realize that now

We already know from Trump's former lawyer, John Dowd, that Trump can't be trusted to tell the truth, ever. According to Bob Woodward's book 'Fear', Dowd told Trump he's 'disabled; incapable of telling the truth.' So, of course, the RNC will go to any lengths to keep Trump off a debate stage with Liz Cheney.

But another delicious thing to ponder are the psy ops ads The Lincoln Project would produce accusing Trump of cowardice, being too afraid to face off with Liz, and how everybody is talking about his yellow streak behind his back.

Bring out the popcorn!
