thetragichippy Posted 2 hours ago Report Posted 2 hours ago 1 hour ago, TheMissingBand said: Keep in mind that typically party leaders don’t make endorsements during the primary season. That’s a new Trump phenomena. As usual - wrong Party leaders have been doing it for decades….George H W Bush was publicly endorsed….Ted Kennedy endorsed….Obama. and Obama endorsed Newsom, Abrams…in one midterm cycle he endorsed 81 candidates…. Why do you make these untrue comments? OlDawg 1 Quote

Why do you make these untrue comments? No, sir. You are mistaken again. I don’t remember Ted Kennedy ever being president, for example. This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up Typically speaking, Presidents don’t weigh in on primary elections. Meaning, they don’t select this Republican over that Republican… but once the voters select their candidate, the President will often weigh in. My guess is that your 81 Obama endorsements were for the Democratic candidate over the Republican, not to the democratic candidate that Obama preferred over the other democratic candidates.

Research Bush’s endorsement of Arlen Specter. Trump did not invent this, he just does it better. If you are endorsed by Trump history has it you have a 94 - 96% of winning…… HangPDFs 1 Quote

If you are endorsed by Trump history has it you have a 94 - 96% of winning…… All jokes aside, I heard from a pretty reputable source (but not first hand) that the price for Trump’s endorsement in ‘24 was a $400k donation to Trump’s re-election campaign. It’s not that hard to sell with those kind of success rates. And Trump has the support of a lot of drones. HangPDFs 1 Quote
