“If we idolize one person, we will lose. And that’s kind of clear from the last election," Louisiana GOP Sen. Bill Cassidy said. | Manuel Balce Ceneta/AP Photo, and predicted that the former president would not become the party’s 2024 nominee.CNN’s “State of the Union” in an interview“Political campaigns are about winning. Our agenda does not move forward unless we win,” he continued.
Cassidy said Republicans could triumph in the 2022 midterm elections as well as the 2024 White House race by “speaking to those issues that are important to the American people,” not “putting one person on a pedestal and making that one person our focal point.”The senator’s remarks stand in stark contrast to the fervently pro-Trump rhetoric that has been on display in recent days at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Orlando, Fla.
Republicans remain divided over Trump’s role in the party going forward, with a small group of more establishment-oriented GOP leaders ratcheting up their criticism of him in recent weeks. But even Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, who called the former president “morally and practically responsible” for the Capitol siege, said he would support Trump if he were Republicans’ next nominee for president.
And Sen. Mitt Romney also argued last week that Trump would easily win the GOP nomination if he seeks the White House again in 2024.
Wise words. Sadly, falling on deaf ears.
The ‘GOP’ as it now exists, is a cult that attracts racist supporters.
It’s only a matter of time. Traitor Trump will destroy each one of his cronies one by one. That’s what he has done his whole rotten pathetic life. He destroys everything and everyone. His own mother stated this!!
Pretty much.
Yep! Hope so!
From his lips to God’s ear.
We will not allow a cult of ignorance to direct the course of this nation!
We have got to put strong options on the table for the people to support. I know we are doing the right thing for the people. We just don’t make good YouTube videos. We are so boring. We should have had 10000 at CPAC waving Biden/American Flags
Doubtful.
You need to clean house TODAY!🤨
Splinter off the party
RR62483804 The spineless LindseyGrahamSC said it years ago. He is back on the shroom I’m guessing you will be too after this. You have a choice to make Not much hope you do the right thing.
Yes it will, everytime he campaigned for someone they lost.
As long as we can block the voter suppression going on at the local level in too many states.
more than 70 million voted for Trump! what are you talking about. I think who is missing your brain
Not if they cheat!
Thank God are still some dissent people to see the damage of pursuing the idiot !
Ya think? Little late to the party.
SORRY FOR INFRIGED ON YOUR PRIVACY...CAN YOU DEVOTE YOUR TIME TO RUN A HUMANITARIAN CHARITY PROJECT IN HELPING THE ORPHANAGE HOME ON THEIR ONGOING PROJECT OF 400 ROOMS NEW BULIDING...
You betcha .
All about corrupted Republicans.
1/6 was less than 2 months ago 1/20 was just over 1 month ago Now... 55% of the CPAC straw poll 53% of conservatives say they’d vote for him if the primary was today BillCassidy, this is a conflict of conscience for GOP, not capability. In other words: can you vs. should you
He is right
'NAACP sue Trump under anti-Klu Klux Klan Act for intimidation and incitement of Capitol riot' The Republican Party keeps getting better and better! The party of Trump, Hawley, Cruz, Nunes, Greene and Boebert!
We certainly intend to vote against the GQP.
Trump has never won the popular vote in an election, lost the House, lost the Senate, impeached twice, lost more than 60 court cases challenging last election, lost in Supreme Court trying to hide his taxes, lost while actually owning casinos, lost 500K lives to COVID.
Oh that ship has sailed Bill.
That ship has sailed, Bill
Every House Republican voted against: — $1,400 stimulus checks — Increased unemployment benefits — State & local government aid — $3,000+ child tax credits — Funds to reopen schools — Funds for vaccine distribution — Funds for rental assistance — Small business relief
There will be no more voting for a Democrat EVER again. You people hate this country...bottom line.
One certainly hopes so.
The reason God says, 'For the sake of the elect, these days will be cut short, for no one will survive'. The Deep State wants to reduce the population down to 500,000,000. Won't happen. If Trump does not become President soon, we are looking at the end of this earth.
Screw Cassidy and the horse he rode in on!
I hope so
Who is Bill Cassidy?
He’s right! Smart man!
Shhh, don’t listen to him. He’s being alarmist.
He's correct. I hope.
It's too late kind sir. They already have and will continue to go down that dangerous path.
He’s right. We definitely ready!
Cult action
Don’t worry the leftist radical agenda by this administration will cost the dems the house and senate but we can pretend to be shocked when it happens
Yah!!!
Cassidy is a FOOL
Like in 2020, gotcha, you know, you might be on to something, then again- maybe not. Thanks for playing...
The idolization of Trump has emboldened the GOP to embrace and promote their true belief system.
I hope it costs them dearly. It puts our country in jeopardy to idolize one person. It's even more dangerous when that man idolizes himself to the extent Trump does.
Uh oh, they’re onto us!
BDBgoldens3 Who is this man and why is he talking sense?
I'm OK with the Republicans losing, down to the last town councilman.
We can only hope and pray this is true for the future of the country.
WHO is he?
They started slitting their own throats when they kept letting Trump get by with anything he wanted to do. CPAC's adoption of the Nazi SS insignia for their stage and Trump's little golden idol really pissed a lot of people off.
BDBgoldens3 Yay!
The GOP
Pennsylvanians can now update their voter registration status -- party, for example -- online:
Not if the hacks at Politico keep normalizing the lies and racism with the Trump cult just to keep the 'game' going as they have been doing. They think this is like Football or Baseball sportscasting. Knock down the top dog and prop up the under dog so the competition make money
IAmSophiaNelson WE CAN ONLY HOPE🤞🏾🙏🏾
They shouldn’t the constituents just want a true conservative that can’t be bought...like Trump was.
But, Donny Will get Rich. 'Everything Trump Touches Dies' R. W.
funny.... Bill Cassidy is a turd...
Shhhh
Seems reflection. Bill Cassidy’s unwillingness to acknowledge the 97% support for Trump policies will have him losing up and down ballot,
Too bad for the RepubliCON Party they won't listen to him but good for the Democratic Party and more importantly the Country.
wonkykitten Stop telling them Bill. Coasting a few years without threat would be very welcome after Shitler!
They're not helpless. Dozens of voter suppression bills are being put forward across the nation.. RememberToShowUpToLocalRaces.
If they ignore Trump, people will stay home.
I agree with him. Remember the history of Germany in early 1920's to 1930's. Do you? I hope not Trump doesn't the dictator and deprives our rights ever minority's rights, too.
Here is why Donald Trump LOST the election, and the confidence of America, and the World.
It already has.
except they're all trying to pass voter suppression laws to make sure they win.
Oh, it will! Keep rolling in those gold statutes of him...keep it up! 👏🏼👏🏼😂
1400 people at CPAC. What’s the big deal? Merely a case of inmates talking to other inmates.
One can only hope and pray for just that!
Dearest Republicans please read the 1st commandment
Ok now you can stop what you (media) If you want to do a major part in getting the country back to normal and less divided ? STOP MAKING DONALD TRUMP THE STORY This is exactly what he wants abd feeds himself and his base when he’s the main story For the sake of us all PLEASE STOP
Gosh what would possibly lead Sen Cassidy to that conclusion⁉️ 🤔 Donald tRUMP’s electoral history, perhaps❓
He says that like it’s a bad thing.
The GQP is now a cult.
