“This is a losing issue for Republicans," moaned one GOP strategist.

Former President Donald Trump is reportedly angry and agitated about the Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade, which he fears will hurt Republican outcomes in the November midterm elections, according to sources.

Though Trump has publicly gushed about the decision and taken credit for it because of the Supreme Court justices he picked, “he keeps shitting all over his greatest accomplishment,” a source who claims to have spoken with Trump about it told Rolling Stone magazine.

“When you speak to him, it’s the response of someone fearing the backlash and fearing the politics of what happens when conservatives actually get what they want” on abortion, the source added. “I do not think he’s enjoying the moment as much as many of his supporters are.”

The New York Times reported Friday that Trump has been complaining since after the draft decision was released last month that the reversal is “bad for Republicans.”

1. That is all they care about. Whether it helps them win or lose. It is a game to them.

The damage they do means nothing to them.

2. It's more than that IMO.

Trump realizes that with "mission accomplished," the GOP got what it wanted with a super-majority USSC and no longer needs him. They got their tax cut and states in disarray with a hodgepodge of abortion laws. Go play golf Donald.

9. Bingo. But he still has a large cult following.

The GOP establishment doesn't need him but he has a lot of people who will do whatever he says. Hopefully enough to split the vote if the GOP tries to go with someone else in 2024.

3. "Be careful what you wish for."

And something about dogs catching the car.

I hope they live with deep regret.

It won’t be for inflicting this atrocity on the American people. Any regret they have will be for the loss of power, which is all they care about.

4. Perhaps there is a silver lining to all this...

maybe we can actually get some laws passed instead of relying on the Court.

5. Conservatives think they've won a major battle in a Great Replacement War.

6. He'll get over it.

8. If you don't want Trump PUBLICLY shitting, (again) Get out the vote!!

These, and the fake elector plan might peel some people loose from the "Party of Nothing"
Some Republicans felt ‘duped’ by Team Trump’s fake electors plot
And they may pay a price for their complicity.

“We were kind of useful idiots or rubes at that point,” said Robert Sinners, a former Trump campaign staffer, adding he now feels he was misled about the effort. “I’m angry because I think, in a sense, no one really cared if people were potentially putting themselves in jeopardy.”

11. Well boo effing hoo 45!

45 asked for this, he got it. Too effing bad. I hope the GOP candidates go down “bigly” this election season.

15. trump is, of course, a stupid, evil motherfucker.

But his baseline survival instincts are occasionally correct. We need to do everything possible to prove him correct on this one.

16. One of the pioneer former anchors here in Philly - Larry Kane

(who not only anchored all 3 local broadcast stations here but briefly worked in NYC as a local anchor before returning here and also counts as his most notable coverage in his career - following the Beatles during their original U.S. tour in the '60s) has a regular "commentary" on politics.

I heard the latest last night where he mentioned an interesting tidbit (where he is, as many of the old '70s/'80s broadcast anchors like Diane Allen were, probably a closet Republican) - he has a number of sources in the local and state PA GOP infrastructure and noted that one of them was talking about fundraising for Josh Shapiro, who is the (D) running against the loon Christo-fascist J6 insurrectionist Doug Mastriano (R) for Governor. This was in response to Roe v. Wade.

The "establishment" GOP tried their darnedest and failed to knock both Mastriano (running for Governor) and Oz (running for Senator) off the ticket.

I have posted before that Shapiro has had an unusual (but thankful) level of quiet but strong popularity here in PA where during both his 2016 and 2020 Attorney General races, he actually received more votes than any of the Presidential and Senatorial candidates on the ballot - whether (D) or (R).

19. The name Josh Shapiro sounds familiar, but can't place. Is his family "old money" by any chance?

just wondering if he's connected to a very very old-money wealthy family (owns vineyard) originally from PA ... ???

[BumRushDaShow]

20. His dad is a pediatrician and served in the Navy

He was actually born in KC, MO, but grew up here.

https://joshshapiro.org/joshs-record/

His dad had gone to med school in KC and did a residency at the Naval Medical Center there, so his dad was juggling that and his family.

17. So the motherfucker who facilitated the SCOTUS decision is mad about it.

He picked three of these radical shits, one of whom was shoved into place virtually hours after the death of RBG, and now he's upset it? What a piece of work.

[IronLionZion]

18. Great, let's make his worst nightmares come true

if our side is fired up and the other side is complacent, we can have a big blue wave sweeping more seats this year.

21. It was never something he believed in, it was just useful as a campaign issue. And now it's not. n/t

22. The stopped clock is right twice a day...

My conservative (but not Trumper) brother also thinks this is a bad strategic move for the GOP.

By the way, here's a bit of trivia: a clock that loses a minute a day is less accurate than a stopped clock, because it is right only once a day...

Then again, the slow clock is more useful, at least at first.

[Totally Tunsie]

23. He's just trying to have it both ways so he can later

wiggle out of a confrontation with "I never said that."

What will ring long and loud, however, are the words of his first-born:

Donald Trump Jr sang his father’s praises and cited him as being personally responsible for Supreme Court’s decision to overturn the landmarkRoe v Wade ruling that recognised a woman’s constitutional right to abortion.

24. their next "carrot and stick" will be running on making it a Federal law to ban abortion.

and somehow, from the minority, they'll pull it off.
