Why Can’t Republicans Quit Donald Trump?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 18 дек 2022
- When one considers the January 6th Committee’s criminal referral charges, on top of Republicans’ poor performance in the midterms, and on top of the now-infamous Mar-a-Lago dinner with Kanye West and Nick Fuentes… one can be forgiven for wondering why Donald Trump still holds total control over the GOP. MSNBC’s Michael Steele spoke to New Hampshire Congresswoman Annie Kuster about what could finally drive a wedge between the former President and the Republican Party.

Easier to con someone than to get someone to admit they've been conned, and the longer it goes on, the harder people hang onto it.
Exactly, the egos are so big that they will not admit that they have been fooled. Bigly!
WELL SAID👊🏽
Democrats are a prime example of this fact.
How is low gas prices, most secure borders in the history of the us, strong economy, low inflation, peace deals in the middle east... is conning people ???
@@georgehk2935 the gas prices were low in 2020, because nobody was driving, sling blade. The reason it's so high now, is because the oil companies are trying to recoup the money they lost during the pandemic. Gas was 1.99 in 2015 while people were actually driving. Nice try Karen. 🤓🤓🤓
Because they’re interested in power at any cost. They don’t care about the country which makes unworthy to hold office. They need to voted out
That's true of both parties. Elected office is a cushy job.
Because they are him.... they believe in what he says and does....
Right violence against people who disagree with them.🤔💯
@@renitaperry5808that crazy , but he did nothing wrong ✌️⚖️👁️
@@DianeGreer 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 wrong he did a lot of evil crap 💯💯🎯
@@renitaperry5808 He needs to be earsed 💙😐
It is easier to fool someone than to tell them they have been fooled.
Like a fish being hooked.
The ego just wants to be right
Some of the ones now sitting in prison on his behalf seem to be having second thoughts.
Yes but a fish doesn't have much brains, come to think of it your right hahahaha Trump supporters and fish, who has more brain power ??? I would say the fish by a mile
And you people have been conned by dementia Joe a brain dead old man with dementia Can’t wait to see Joe debate Trump it will be hilarious dementia Joe will try to get out of it and if he does he shouldn’t be allowed to be president
They can’t and won’t cause what he stands for is what the GOP stands for. Hate.
I love your segments, Michael! Thank you ❤
They really want to forget about trump, but his crazy cult is a different story. They need them
Say it louder for those at the back!
NO they DON'T. They're leaving this insanity for T to DS. But he's not their answer either. They, "the base", has NO freaking IDEA who they want to follow. THEY DON'T THINK FOR THEMSELVES because they DON'T KNOW HOW...
@@natalieharless1715 I agree with that too
They can't quit Donald Trump because he is just like them.
They want what He represents....
EXACTLY! THEY'RE ALL TRAITORS! LOCK THEM UP! Reeeeeeeeeee😠😠😠😠
What BILLIONAIRES ?????
@@LindaWickham
Apparently, Donnie admitted this himself.
Donnie an Jeffry Epstein were flying past Atlantic City on the Lolita Express when Trump offered Epstein a tour of his casino.
Epstein declined because he wanted nothing to do with the White trash there.
Donnie's reply was that, if it weren't for money, he would be just like them.
WHY IS HE NOT IN JAIL FOR WHAT HE HAS DONE TO OUR COUNTRY ... WHY IS HE NOT IN PRISON?? I WISH THE MAN NO HARM BUT I WOULD SHED A TEAR..
Unlike Germany and Peru, here in America, the rich and powerful have special rights
On internet platforms, no one can hear you SCREAM.
@@ecurewitz say it for the people in the back again. If it was I or you that did any of those things he's currently accused of we would be in jail
How about you tell us why you think he DOESNT belong in jail?
What crimes were committed?
Good to see you more often, Michael Steele.
Best wishes from the Heart 💙 of America.
Have a good holiday season 🎄.
Maybe the question should be: Why can't you get your soul back after you sold it?
The idea that Republicans think they can curb trump's ego to their own benefit is laughable after all this time. it's like using a forest fire to try to light the candles of a birthday cake.
stick to your George Floyd jokes.
The base demands loyalty to trump, so the bulk of the GOP has no choice but to cave to them. It’s not like they can lead or anything
Imposter. Reported.
Congrats to Ashleigh Babbitt on 1,078 days sober!!!
Congratulations on six years of Trump staying out of prison.
McCarthy denied subpoena, which anyone else goes to jail for. How can he be allowed to be speaker? It does not make sense.
MAGA Republicans are all in. Their base isn't going to give him up.
McCarthy is a doble blade… This is why he is having a hard time getting votes….He shares the same brain as you know “who”…He should get some speech lessons because he is on the same boat that MTG is, he is afraid of her…they should not be holding government positions, because they are “BAD NEWS FOR THIS COUNTRY”🙁 Let’s vote them out… LETS REMEMBER, THEY WORK FOR US VOTERS…AND WE HAVE THE POWER TO FIRED OR KEEP THEM BY VOTING… 👍THANKS! ❤
they can't quit trump because his "status" as a "leader" normalizes their ignorance, hate and lawlessness.
it's basically the younger kid that sees the older kid misbehave and they go "ok i can do that too"
I couldn't have expressed it any better, friend.
You nailed it!
They've probably taken some $ from some people who they shouldn't have. Now they're scared.
Why can't R's quit Trump? "Sunk costs"
The base demands loyalty to trump because they foolishly believe trump cares about them
DJT is like something nasty on the bottom of your shoe, and you can’t scrape it off.
Why can't Republicans quit Donald Trump?, asks the "news" network that's obsessed with him everyday....
@@brupeboring2082 👈 triggered by the truth
What truth are you going on about?
These people are " free basing the orange kool-aid ".
You saying it as a joke but you nailed it 💙😐
lol... not so fast grasshopper... lol Love you Michael.
I have been voting for 50 years in five different states and never did my presidential primary vote count for anything. It is time to share the early states with all the other states on a rotating basis.
I've always thought that it was insane that the primaries take so long. All states should vote at once, and it should be tiered choice voting. Imagine being in one of the states that votes first, and you realize your choice is losing, and by the third month you're wishing you could change it to someone else because the candidate you can't stand has been coming out ahead, right in front of your second choice....
There is no compromise too great, no amount of mental gymnastics too complex in their pursuit of a neo-fascist theocracy.
Lock them all up
They chained themselves to an anchor because it was easy.
Their own fault.
I like your "Anchor" analogy. How does an anchor behave, It sinks to the bottom, dragging it's chain with it.
Frankenstein's monster. Old story
Duh...because they are the same !!
Because they love him. The lose because of independents who have improved their literacy rate
Can you imagine trumps presidential library everything on display will be labeled criminal evidence exhibit A.
Grasshopper, LMAO!!!
Because their source of power comes from outside of them.
Because they think and believe same things just like tRUMP does. I don't know why people don't get that.
Why can’t Trump stop thinking of himself as a Super Hero?
Because if they didn't have the extremists on their side they know they are clearly outnumbered.
Why can’t MSNBC quit Trump is a better question! - Trump, Trump, Trump, all day everyday
Simply put, he has dirt on a bunch of them.
They won’t “quit” Trump because his policies support them. What you think anyone in congress is like the average citizen of the USA? Get your head out of the ground.
Because Dr. Frankenstein can't give up on his monster.
The way to stop this is to put Trump in jail ASAP and let the GOP deal with the mess they caused. Let Tucker have a nervous breakdown on the air. Let Murdoch go bankrupt. And if the alt-right take up arms gun them down. Trump is the worst thing to happen since Jefferson Davis, and his fans deserve the consequences.
Period.
Spoken like a true fascist.
@@TheChopf26 Can the insults. You clearly have no idea what you’re talking about.
I totally agree with you He is so use to getting away with what ever he likes, he's been doing it all his life. But this is different He can't be aloud to get away with this I look forward to the day I see him dressed all in orange . WOW won't that clash with his hair lol
Why can't Democrats stop obsessing about 45?
Ask the inhabitants of Jonestown why..
That easy you see in other what you see in yourself
The same reason his maga cult cant, hes they saviour. (RIP...JESUS)
Not all voters rejected extremism.
They care more about their jobs 😂😂😂😂. If they have dignity and interest and are productive in life outside politics then they would had ditched him a long time ago
Why no reporting on whats going on at the border?
Trump any day.
Look how msnbc are talking about him.
Why? He checks every one of their boxes.
Edit: sp
And he has the goods on them, and he is not afraid to use it.
This channel can't quit Trump
From the people that still worship brotha'bama.
If those Republicans who defied subpoenas actually gave up that information, it would constitute a confession. Their desperation comes from that certitude. Their guilt will be certified if those crimes are exposed and entered into the Congressional record.
Lmao why can’t you. 😂
9:25 Oof, she let the mask slip at the end. "We want these rules specifically because it give an advantage to our preferred nominee."
Huh?
lol, the one who can talk sanely to the voters? Field one yourself, and the rules will give that one an advantage too. Or run yourself; you are part owner of this country, and your voice should be shared. Sanely. With the voters.
@@intercat4907 I support Biden. I voted for, donate to, and campaign with Joe.
@@Omni0404 That's interesting. Do you think your candidate will be unfairly favored by this change of rules? Meant courteously - I just am not sure what you were concerned about in your post, and sometimes I ask people questions.
@@intercat4907 The guest sure seems to think so. She said because Biden is seen so favorably in the first 3 primaries that it would "clear the field" (against other nominees.)
Republicans spent so much effort in his creation and you know how they feel about abortion...
They're much stronger than they know they are, and they CAN, and MUST, quit Trump or the Republican party is Finished. The Trumplicans deserve absolutely no respect or anything else.
More importantly...why can't MSNBC and CNN quit Donald Trump?
Why can't msnbc stop saying Trumps name?
Could it be their on drugs or alcohol?
Trump is a Hypno Toad.
Guys the”Power at any cost” does not apply here. We have never been in power otherwise MLK Jr would still be alive.
What does he have on these GOP members. Some sort of blackmail? Makes you wonder
One word answer ..d-u-m-b
One third of the angels left heaven to follow Satan 🥴
Because the other option is to be a democrat since they own the gop too.
"Everyone" should be able to Vote
It's time to burn all those trump flags and try to nominate a Republican with a chance to win in 2024
Maybe if DOJ does their job and we see Donald J Trump along with his minions in Federal prison orange jumpsuits, will the MAGA movement wake up and see the majority of Americans don't want that direction they trying to take us! We want centrists will to debate and compromise to move our country forward.
Quit Trump now
Somebody is connecting individuals to GOP votes, and letting everything in between take care of itself.
Why can't you?
Sounds like another support group is on the way. Trump addicts sign here, please, to be in the group ... people who went to school and did internships for often-underpaid community work, sign here, please, to be facilitators and open your calendars for therapy referrals ... hurray for bipartisanship..
Lol that's funny. Why can't msdnc quit trump? It's literally 100% of their reporting program.
This is coming from a news channel that talks about him everyday 😂🤣😂🤣😂
So what channel doesn't mention trump everyday. I am sure when they lock him up. They will stop talking about him every day
So are you going to watch the Jan. 6 hearing today.
@@rickdavis8854Yes ofcourse they are going to reveal that trump ate Burger King that day so the evidence is a mile high
@@replenisher11 good one you said enough now I know you are a troll or just really stupid. So did you like trump's comment about the constitution. I took an oath to it many years ago when I joined the military I found his comment to be offensive I mean really do you what a king. Do you what to keep your rights as a citizen protected by the constitution.
@@rickdavis8854 Who wants to take my guns ? Not trump. Who has already shown they will censor speech for political reasons? (Twitter files)Not Trump. You are sadly mistaken on who wants to erase constitution and who believes in it
Trump is their god. You can’t expect people to turn away from their deity.
Michael Steele's use of "Democrat" as an adjective shows that you can kick the moderate out of the Republican Party but you can't take the agreed upon Republican dog whistles out of the ex-Republican.
Me: "Lock her up!!! Lock her up!!!!"
Msnbc: "Why are you talking about Hilary?? Don't you see the crimes????"
Me: "I WAS speaking of former president d. -ump... "
Radicalism in politics is always difficult to accommodate in what ordinarily can ony sustain itself as a conversation, if it is not to degenerate into war. The political conversation need not always conform to what is generally held to be easy, polite, or gentle. But it does have to involve a shared aim at reaching agreement on policies that apply in a practical way to at least some actual facts (which are likely to be unruly) and are related in a rational way to at least some principles that are relevant (although the degree of relevance may be controversial.)
There have been many occasions to point out that Trumpism has subordinated the factual side of things to catering to the emotional needs of some who are too frightened or angry (or both) about important facts that they are unable to think about facing in a sensible way.
But Trumpism also operates in a way that narrows the scope of the principles that are always mutually relevant in some pattern in every political conversation. For a list of such principles, see the Preamble to the U.S. Constitution: a more perfect Union, Justice, Domestic Tranquility, General Welfare, Liberty. Are they all equally relevant in any actual or practical circumstance? Of course not. There are different grades of relevance among them as applied to different sets of facts and circumstances.
But that is why politics is a conversation and not a war.
It's like marriage: people will divorce good spouses with every kind of ease, but will find every excuse to stay in an abusive situation. It's the same reason why the Pubblers can't quit Ole Donnie.
Good! Let him run candidates or himself and keep losing, this works for all of us for the better, whether magat county wants to believe it or not.
Free Covid-19 vaccine, anyone?
....anyone?
...someone?
Yes, the Imigration reform is a big issue .. both parties have failed, so hearing Republicans scream about it without proposing solutions is laughable and makes no sense even under their watch it was worse with humanitarian abuse.. So, at this point, no one gets points, they both get a big F and just need to get back to the tableble and speak as Americans no party talk , No one gets credit but America being in control of its boarders and how to operate and process legit cases in a timely manner to clear all the back log ..no way around it but working together and if Republicans have human methods of better doing it then bring it to the table as people's representatives of the states no parties involved tough but doable just just have to choose to do so
Why can’t the democrats quit President Donald J Trump?????😂😂😂😂😂
Give us a break from Donald Trump. Lock him up.
I've been praying and praying for that to happen. Even though I know it probably never will. Some issues even God won't go near.
Yes, please. He needs to be in prison
The better question is why can't the libs quit trump lol
Trump 2024
why can't you leftwingers quit him, that's the real question.
YES İ AM LİSTEN YOUR HİSTORY
The can do caucus. Please stop with the silly names. Reminds me of the GOP nonsense. Just my opinion.
The drugs organize the news for happ
does USA need more partys and govern together by building a majoriy? here is no way to continue with only 2 parties where one is obvious a danger to democracy... having only one party eligible, actually its nice for democrats to win in future until they don't which will then end democracy and even winning there is no oposition so even if democrats continue winning you can't call it a democrazy if there is no other (real) party with a thought content party program.
Because Trump lives free of charge in their heads.

It isn’t the Republicans it seems that MS NBC continues to be infatuated with Trump. We have a disaster on our hands now with the worst economy in over 40 years and we are well on our way to the Biden Recession in MS NBC is more concerned about Trump.
What are you talking about? Can you name a single policy Trump made into legislation?
The Germans tried to cure a bad economy by electing an authoritarian, and look what happened.
@@teniente_snafu It is not the presidents job to legislate. Read the constitution. It is the presidential job to execute and implement legislation passed by Congress.
Some things that Trump did initiate contributed to our supercharged economy. Indeed, he is probably the best friend Democrats ever had.
1. Very early on Trump initiated our iconic JFK tax plan that supercharged the economy during that time and brought us a supercharged economy with full employment at 33.3%. We were also energy independent in the worlds leading producer of energy according to the independent EIA.
2. Prison reform was a Democrat party platform issues. Through executive order Trump initiated prison reform and pardoned the sentence of several minority individuals, several of them women who were serving life terms for relatively minor drug crimes.
3. Lower drug prices has been a Democrat party platform issue for years. Through executive order Trump required that the federal government negotiate with pharmaceutical companies to obtain a lower price.
We have to remember that he also removed bureaucratic roadblocks which brought us to COVID-19 vaccines in record time. He also initiated, “operation warp speed” to speed these vaccines to the states. Even Joe Biden had to complement him on operation warp speed.
Thank you for your interest and your post. Stay safe and stay healthy. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

Why can't MSNBC quit Trump? Ratings. They have little else at this point.
Ratings? MSNBC does not have ONE SINGLE PROGRAM in the top 50 Cable TV shows.
