Some high-profile Republicans and onetime allies of former president Donald Trump have revealed their true colors after he announced his 2024 run last week.
Several prominent party figures have now distanced themselves from the former president.
Some called Trump out by name, accusing him of a lackluster performance in the midterms, while others urged voters to look at other possible candidates.
New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu
New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu said, “[Trump’s] not going to have the financial support he had any more; he’s not going to have the internal support that he had before.”
“Therefore, there’s opportunity there. That political weakness is blood in the water for some folks,” Sununu added.
Nikki Haley
Former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley announced she was considering a presidential run in a “serious way.”
“A lot of people have asked if I’m gonna run for president. Now that the midterms are over, I’ll look at it in a serious way, and I’ll have more to say soon,” she said, despite previously saying she would not run if Trump ran.
“For now, I’ll say this. I’ve won tough primaries and tough general elections. I’ve been the underdog every single time. When people underestimate me, it’s always fun. But I’ve never lost an election. And I’m not gonna start now.”
Former Vice President Mike Pence
Former Vice President Mike Pence reacted to Trump’s announcement about his 2024 bid for a second term, saying there will be “better choices.”
“Well, I just — I honestly believe that we’re going to have better choices, Bret,” Pence responded.
“I think Donald Trump was the only candidate in 2016 who could have defeated Hillary Clinton. I saw that firsthand. And then, after he won that Indiana primary, I never doubted that he was going to win. And I chronicle that in my book,” he added.

Cynthia Lummis
Cynthia Lummis, a Republican senator from Wyoming, told Politico this week. “The question is: who is the current leader of the Republican party? Oh, I know who it is: Ron DeSantis.”
“Ron DeSantis is the leader of the Republican party, whether he wants to be or not,” she said.
David McIntosh, president of Club for Growth Action
“Republicans need to be united behind a strong candidate and a platform that shows voters real solutions to beat Biden and the Democrats in 2024,” said McIntosh.
“Our polling shows that Republican primary voters recognize Trump’s insults against Republicans as hollow and counterproductive, and it’s taking a significant toll on his support.”
Chris Christie
“His ego is so badly bruised from what he knows is true — he knows he lost to Joe Biden. He doesn’t believe the stuff that he’s saying. He knows he lost to him. And his ego has not been able to withstand it,” Chris Christie told the Washington Examiner.
“A lot of his conduct since Election Day 2020 has been a product of that inability to deal with the reality of having lost. I really don’t think that the American people want a president who sees himself as a victim.”
Meanwhile, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who is being pitted as Trump’s rival by the media, teased a 2024 bid saying he’s “only begun to fight.”
“I can tell you this: We’ve got a lot more to do,” he said over the weekend.
Several of Trump’s most loyal supporters have since endorsed the former president as the GOP nominee, while others have remained silent.
What a bunch of self-serving POS. Especially the enormous bag of hot air christie that has done absolutely nothing but shut down a beach so he and his band of oversized munching could have it for themselves.
Some group.
Big name RINOs. So what
McConnel and Mega Donors have just been waiting it out using “both-sides” politicians fitted into slots and that appears to seem sensible by the media. If you just elected those “we can unite” media which is the same as surrender Reagan spoke about. All are media darlings brought to the front whenever Trump seems weak. It is always about abandoning Ameri First, Tea Party, or we the people for another facade of numbers of R’s in Office. R’s in the office is not the benchmark. Promises made and promises kept is. Two things they all have in common. They say things that appear righteous to the cause, but mean nothing, promote conservatism, but only believe only certain conservative items on the economy, but never the constitution, and make no absolute promise that they can ever be held to.
What the McConnells ‘ and his FTX money did in the midterms shows they are willing to lose everything to the other side of the uniparty if they can not remain themselves entrenched.
Every movement away from the corporatism of the banks and its Oligarchy has been dealt with the same by the Administrative State and its paid media. Just to define what they think of the MAGA movement is to fit it into this box so that it can be destroyed.
“Populism is a label that covers disparate policies and passions: among many others, New Deal reforms, consumer rage against b******s, ethnic belligerence. Often it is merely a catch phrase. Yet it describes something real: the politics of the little guy against the big guy — the classic struggle of the haves against the have‐nots or the have‐not‐enoughs. from in an unsigned article from the April 17, 1972, issue of Time magazine cited by the Oxford English Dictionary: “
The CATO institute also uses this definition. Supports the same idea of “We the People”. Make no mistake whether Right or Left the uniparty views “We the People” the same. It is always be reasonable, but it is always the same message. ” They will B**n it all down before they let the people have it again”
It has been going on since the Civil War when the first harsh slashes on the constitution began. The message from these fence-sitters is the same. Abandon the Constitutional rights you are entitled to for a more secure and peaceful existence or else. Never seems very secure or peaceful to me.
