FROM THE MAILBAG
Charles wrote to us to say, “Republicans can no longer tolerate Donald Trump’s focus on his loss to Biden. He has shown no leadership in recognizing opportunities for conservatives for the near- and long-term future of the country. He was a drag on Republican candidates in this midterm election and made bad decisions in the primaries to support only candidates who would parrot his narcissistic point of view. He is a man of the past and not the future.”
- Darrell agreed: “Positively believe that Trump has alienated a significant part of own party — and hardened every possible swing voter/independent against a Republican vote.”
