Why Trump Is Losing His Grip on the GOP

He rose to power denouncing the phoniness of politics. Now he is pro-phony.  https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2022/03/24/trump-losing-gop-0001…

Whose mind is totally shot when he can not remember the people he is endorsing... SAD!

Yesterday, at a political rally in Nebraska, Trump told attendees, “We’ve endorsed ... J.P.? Right? J.D. Mandel. And he’s doing great.”

The Ohio candidate Trump endorsed a little more than two weeks ago was actually J.D. Vance, a venture capitalist and the author of Hillbilly Elegy. Vance is running against Josh Mandel in tomorrow's GOP primary.

Republican: "We've endorsed Dr. Oz. We've endorsed J.P., right—J.D. Mandel. And he's doing great. They're all doing good. They're all doing good. And let's see what happens." He's endorsed J.D. Vance in Ohio

Meanwhile, there is no impunity for the former guy. His expected entitlement and exemption from punishment for any injurious consequences or action. Today a special grand jury convenes in Fulton County, Georgia to start weighing evidence and testimony surrounding election interference by former President Donald Trump.

The major focus is Trump's January 2nd, 2021 phone call to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger when Trump urged him to tilt the Georgia State tally in his favor. In addition to the Georgia probe, the New York Attorney General is continuing to develop a civil case over Trump's financial practices, and a special House committee is investigating Trump's links to the January 6th insurrection.

In Fulton County, Ga, where Trump asked officials to find him 11,780 votes, DA Willis impanels an investigative grand jury today. She recently said, If there’s sufficient evidence of a crime, “I’m going to bring an indictment — I don’t care who it is.”
