Trump threatens to wreak havoc on GOP from beyond the White House

President Donald Trump has spent the three weeks since he lost the election savaging a pair of GOP governors for not backing his claims he was robbed.

Republicans are worried it’s just the start of what’s in store from the soon-to-be-former president.

Trump’s attacks on Govs. Brian Kemp of Georgia and Mike DeWine Ohio — both of whom are up for reelection in 2022 — has led to broader concerns within the party that he will use his post-presidency to exact revenge on perceived enemies and insert himself into races in ways that are not helpful.

While the 2022 midterm elections are a ways off, the president’s broadsides are giving fuel to would-be primary challengers in both states — raising the prospect that Republicans will be forced into ugly and expensive nomination fights that could jeopardize their hold on the two governors’ mansions.

3. Ha!

Once the State of New York gets done with him, he won't be able to afford his monthly internet fee. He has worn out his welcome and will be ignored. However, people will cheer (me especially) when he and his family are indicted and their property is attached by the State of New York and the City of New York.

4. trump is completely incompetent in every.

How incompetent must these republicans be to fear him ?

[Chemisse]

5. If they ALL refute him, in unison, they will seize power over him.

That would go a long way toward taking back their Party.

But they are too pathetic to even manage that.

11. If I was a gop congressperson, I would bet on him making empty threats

He will be up to his eyeball in legal proceedings after Jan and won't have the time nor the money to enact any type of revenge. Peoplr have short memories. He WILL fade into the walls of his prison cell.
