Rolling Stone spoke with diehard Trump supporters who waited hours in the snow to watch the former president stump in New Hampshire
Fresh off a historic victory in the Iowa caucuses, former President Donald Trump traveled to New Hampshire and complained to his supporters that he had to leave the White House after losing the 2020 election.
Fans had lined up for hours outside in the snow for a chance to see the presumptive Republican nominee in person — excited over his Iowa win, appearing confident he will once again be president.
During his speech, Trump said it “was ridiculous that we had to leave, but we had to leave, we have to follow the laws of our land.” He quickly doubled down on his 2020 election lies: “They don’t investigate the people that cheated in the election. They investigate the people that understand they cheated and go after them. But they don’t investigate the people who cheated like hell. We have to have fair and free elections.”
Of course, Trump is being prosecuted for attempting to rig the 2020 election and overturn the results in key swing states — and as Rolling Stone has reported, he and his allies are working diligently to predetermine the results of the 2024 election and make sure they favor Trump.

The answer is usually that someone else would simply take his place. Not happening here. The GOP can’t even post a plausible 2nd place candidate.
People absolutely LOVE that line of logic. “Well if Putin were deposed, he’s just be replaced by someone just as bad!!!1111”. In reality, some people are unique set of skills, and who ever would move into Putin’s role wouldn’t have those skills, and wouldn’t make the same decisions as he would have.
The same thing applies to Trump, he’s uniquely terrible, and none of the other GOP candidates even come close in terms of the type of damage they’d do as president vs what Trump will do. None of those other candidates would unify all the crazy MAGA people like Trump does. So in this instance, he’s singular, he’s terrible, and he really needs to stop being in the spot light, and just fade away. He’s already inflicted more damage on the United States then any foreign enemy could have dreamed of. Another term of that clown would be catastrophic.
Indeed
Yeah, where’s Paul Ryan at? He crawled under a rock after stumping for Russia.
I’m legit surprised nobody has had a decent crack at it
If he wins, I think someone would try.
