midtermsFormer White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said former President Donald Trump is a "loser" who cost the GOP seats in the midterm elections and is losing support among Republican leaders.
During an NBC News panel on "Meet the Press NOW" Friday, Psaki, who served as press secretary in President Joe Biden's first year and a half in office, commented on the shift in tides for Trump after several of his hand-selected candidates lost their races.
"What feels a little different now we'll see is that he's losing. He is a loser after Tuesday. People he endorsed lost. He cost seats for the Republicans in the House and Senate," Psaki said, noting that Trump is "still winning among Republican primary voters."
Following disappointing midterm results for Republicans, the spotlight has shifted from Trump to Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who easily won reelection on Tuesday with nearly 60% of the vote. DeSantis has been floated as a 2024 presidential candidate and potential "Republican Front-Runner."

(10,265 posts)Seemingly, the MAGA extremists who always decide Republican primaries are the only ones still with him. It's the Republican establishment that wants to get rid of Trump, but they'll find themselves in a real quandary if they dump him. Trump won't go quietly.

(36,527 posts)& had two years for Trump's base to get over their butthurt. We gifted them a second chance in 2021, but they rejected that too. Repubs think they can make allies with the worst of the worst & control them. Like Palin & the teaparty. They could have muzzled her but didn't cuz they need the racists, zealots, & loons to win. Now the teaparty has morphed into the MAGAs with some other toxic elements thrown into the mix & the Republican Party has lost control.
