Is Trump Alienating The U.S. Right?
Is the U.S. right getting sick of U.S. President Donald Trump already?
This from long-time Bulldog reader John Langstone:

One kind of hopes this is a good news thing. This is a Murdoch empire paper. (News Corp.) I don’t see this being published without approval from the top.
Read the box at the bottom right, “Putin is solely responsible for this war.” How does that line up with what Trump said this week?
Murdoch reaches a lot of right-wing supporters.
Maybe something sort of positive is percolating?

Not many groups or countries or factions Trump has left to offend except Putin so the US right is possibly Trumps next target to irritate?
Remember that now he has the ultimate power for the next four years, he doesn’t really need the Republican Party (what’s left of it!). When anybody steps out of line, they’re accused of being a RINO, Republican In Name Only, and Trump’s minions organize and generously fund someone to take them on in the primaries at the next election. They learn pretty quickly which side their bread is buttered on and who has control of the butter.
Some, like Liz Cheney, have some integrity and tell them to bring it on, losing their seats in the process. Others, for whom the power of a congressional seat is worth more than any principles they might once have had, take the hints and roll over for the Orange One. Still others, who’ve drunk the Koolaid and are on the Trump bandwagon, gladly spout the new party line and reap the rewards.
Trump has recently claimed he is the king, demonstrating a gross ignorance of why the US was founded in the first place, and has even said that he had considered telling the people charged with the 2024 election to extend the term by two years. This when he is statute-barred from holding the office of President for more than two four-year terms.
He is, of course, following in the footsteps of Richard Nixon whose position it was that nothing is illegal if the President does it. We know where that landed him. He’s also comparing himself to Napoleon who said “He who saves his country doesn’t violate any law”. Again, we know where he ended up.
You know, Guantanamo would be a marvelous place to hold Donald Trump in exile just as Napoleon was sent to St. Helen’s. He could be accompanied by his family, Elon Musk and his other henchmen and women. They could all be kept in isolation so they would have no opportunity to plot any further evil.
