No need, the DNC will pay them off to make sure Trump's free to run against Biden.

This is one of the dumbest takes I've ever heard. No surprise it's from Hexbear.

Your proof is a single strategy memo from almost 10 years ago?

The DNC specifically tried to elevate Trump so they could shift the Republican Party right instead of moving themselves left, the propping up of the GOP as a “greater evil” by the DNC to prevent genuine leftward opposition not just shown in this case, but by the disparity between the level of terror directed against the GOP as opposed to left wing groups not just as abroad but also at home, where supposedly Trump is a fascist who cannot be allowed to gain power or else Democracy^TM will end, and yet absolutely nothing is done.

They’ve spent millions on this shit😭 this is like a known thing amongst those who don’t have chronic liberal brain rot

Gosh, I hadn't thought of that. Much simpler than, say, the GOP seeing Trump for what he really is and running Haley or DeSantis or any another candidate who isn't tied up in a 88-count "witchhunt".

Watch out for those vapor trails, pal.

Watch out for those vapor trails, pal.

It was a joke based on the proven facts that the DNC deliberately elevated Trump and has spent millions financing far-right Republican candidates as propped-up opposition? I'm not saying 9/11 was an inside job or anything.

the GOP seeing Trump for what he really is and running Haley or DeSantis

How exactly are either of these people better than Trump?
