Trump's planning to run again in 2024: Will his supporters ever realize he hates them?

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/opinion/trumps-planning-to-run-again-in-2024-will-his-supporters-ever-realize-he-hates-them/ar-AAORO5D?li=BBnb7Kz

Trump scorns those who are weak or foolish enough to need him. He does not want to be needed — he wants others to serve and satiate his needs. He thrives on their praise, adulation and unconditional loyalty. The whole concept of public service is foreign to him because he perceives every interaction is a transactional game that must be won. And winning, for him, inevitably means defeat and humiliation of the other person. In Trump's psyche, even his supporters need to be humiliated and defeated.


******************

It's ironic that Thumpers call anyone who doesn't support TFG "RINOs." TFG isn't even a Republican. He's two things and two things only: an opportunist, and a con man.

and they know it, it makes them feel secure. This is why it incenses them when minorities will not know their place.

I have pointed out in painstaking detail how much Trump despises people who are not like him. Or who are not HIM. The response I get is usually along these lines.

As long as he makes liberals cry, I'm happy.

OR

I don't him to be my friend. I want him to do the things I want him to do.

They absolutely don't care.

And they'll vote for any rethuglican spouting the same crap.

TFG is not running in 2024. He'll either be dead from a massive coronary, or in prison. The big question is--will Joe run again? And how will Kamala do against whoever runs on the side of evil?

...The money pukes know that Donald Trump is a waste of money...

.....for one simple reason...He said, "It's a hoax"..and the hoax has killed 500,000 people.....

If Trump is allowed to run, the Puke Party will be further destroyed, and take longer to revive itself..So, the big
money Pukes will do everything they can do to stop Trump...Big Money Pukes..know Trump''s running will further
destroy their party......They will NOT support Trump in that run for re-election
