RINO snorts:
"Trump is not a Republican, he is an anti-Republican"
Of course he isn't ["Republican"], and hasn't been since he came ridin' down that escalator.
Not "Republican".
Somebody like John Thune is "a Republican".
Mr. Trump is MAGA.
Something [almost] entirely different.
However... he accomplished something no one else has in American history.
A true "independent" of neither major party, he nonetheless jumped on the Republican horse -- not once, but THREE TIMES -- stole it from them, and then rode it to victory.
When the ride's over in 2028, who's gonna grab those reins and do THAT again?
Or... will the nomination just end up going to another... "Republican" ???
