ENOUGH IS ENOUGH: Dozens of Prominent Conservatives Call to Move on From Failed Trump


Following Republicans’ stunningly poor performances in Tuesday’s midterm elections, dozens of prominent conservatives are calling for the GOP to finally move on from Donald Trump as its leader, calling him an anchor and drag on the party’s electoral chances among an electorate tired of his bloviating antics.

Despite record inflation, high gas prices, and record crime, Republicans look like they’ll barely eke out a majority in the House of Representatives, and possibly lose seats in the Senate. The blame, many conservatives agree, lies squarely with Trump, who was the driving force behind a bunch of weak GOP candidates getting the party nomination.

Those include Senate losers Don Bolduc and Mehmet Oz in New Hampshire and Pennsylvania, Hershel Walker who can’t close the deal in GOP-leaning Georgia, Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake, who is currently trailing her opponent, and many others.

Meanwhile, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis absolutely demolished his opponent Charlie Crist and Florida Senator Marco Rubio similarly wiped the floor with Democrat Val Demings, showing that Republicans had a strong hand – but really bad candidates nationally, all thanks to Trump.

  1. @coffee addict: But they ALL talk SENSE!
    I voted for Trump in the last 2 Presidential elections.
    The Trump we see today is NOT the same Trump that I voted for.
    He got TOO BIG and his mouth OUTGREW him.

    Time for the GOP to DROP HIM.

  2. The article is unattributed, and appears to be a random collection of tweets.

    Also, Trump has never been a conservative. He’s a populist and an isolationist, with no object to big government.

    However it is very clear that Trump is a LOSER who poisons those who run with him, and managed to block what should have been significant Republican majorities in both houses of Congress.

  3. Really?! These are “prominent conservatives”?!
    DeSantis gain over 4 years ago is basically the same as Republicans gained in NY in the Hochol-Zeldin race and many other places.
    The absolute reality is, if not for Trump doing a great job for 4 years, Republicans wouldn’t be where they are today, and that’s while being held back and harassed by all these same people! otherwise his presidency would’ve been even better.
    Moving on from Trump would be very foolish for these reasons:
    1. First, Trump is way way better. DeSantis connects with people on a political / policy level, but Trump has a connection with the oilam on a cultural / celebrity level and more. Hard to describe, but it’s pretty evident to see.
    2. On the world stage DeSantis cannot be like Trump. Trump is a personality that the enemies are just scared of not knowing what he’d do next. He can never be bold as Trump, and he’ll “play it safe” to a great degree.
    3. DeSantis, who’s really great as a governor of a swing state, was never tested on the national stage. Let’s be real. He’s being groomed by many wal-street and corporate figures because he’s a way to derail Trump, but once he’s the nominee, to truly be independent and for the people who voted for you is something extremely unique, and Trump proved himself to be just that – with flying colors – that’s why he’s harassed so much.
    If DeSantis would be really acting on his own, he would do what I’m sure he really wants to do, which is right off the bat tell everyone that if Trump runs he isn’t running. But he must be controlled already, in this respect.
    4. By doing that we would be telling the left that all their dirty schtik works on us! The only reason Trump is ‘toxic’ is because of their many many lies and criminal activity (including stealing the election, which is fact), which not only they’re not sitting in jail for, but they’re reaping gains from it, even among ‘conservatives’…
    And don’t kid yourself. The minute DeSantis IS the guy, if he truly is even a little conservative as Trump, the media will find controversy after controversy. They can easily make him forget his name, and you people will then look to move on further, not realizing the left is laughing at their success.

  4. The real symptom is lack of leadership and a platform which is why Trump got here in the first place. Republicans can’t go on with ignoring gen z and millennials because they do turn out. They need candidates, a platform, and leadership.

  5. trump was great for the 2016 post obama-nation era, he was the exact opposite of hussein and therefore was appealing. covid definitely was trump’s downfall. covid changed the dynamics of the entire world along with floyd and trump didn’t conform- that was his downfall

  6. Trump ran the country with tremendous success. By every measure he has a lot to be proud of. Obama Clinton etc. talked and talked but every move was a mess-up. Why are those clowns going around with a big mouth endorsing people, and Trump has to shut up? – We must stop allowing the left to tell us who we should like and who not. Let them first put up a president that would do a half decent job before they talk.

  7. It’s time for the white knight to lay down his sword and go home.

    Like they say stars come and go.

    His time politically is over.

    We need someone that cares about our country.

    Someone who will do right by our people.

    Desantis 2024!

  8. There is no moving on from Trump and Trumpism when a majority of the Republicans still support him and believe in his ideals.

    Moving on from Trump will mean that in 2024, the party is split and doesn’t stand a chance.

    Liz Cheney , who was kicked out of the party and lost her seat for going against Trump , is having the last laugh.

  9. It’s not Trump’s problem that most Americans today are brainwashed liberals and keep on voting for the party that is destroying the US. I don’t like that Trump talks too much and has a huge ego but that’s absolutely not why Republicans lost. They are desperately trying to pin the blame on someone.

  10. “Trump endorsed pretty much anyone who kissed his ass enough”

    Whoa. Didn’t expect this on Yeshiva World but I don’t really mind.

  11. Philosopher correct the US is more left of center than the frum oilam likes to think the US is. Fact is most of America supports all kinds of LGBT and trans nonsense. They believe in protecting late abortion in all cases. They like handouts. It’s not the 1980s.

  12. When Zelden asked Hochal during the debate “why is she talking about Trump?” she knew exactly what she was saying. There are four words that resonate with democrats and liberals STOLEN ELECTION and JANUARY 6. I know and you know Biden did not win the election but there comes a time when you have to say, am I losing more than I’m gaining. Trump put out a video during the summer – A collage of about 50 democrats who were videoed saying that various elections over a period of about 10 years were stolen, or not fair. The difference is all those democrats said their piece but moved on. Trump is still at it two years later My prediction What happened to Antiyochus will happen to Trump. A few diehards will stick with him, but most will move to Desantis and let Trump rant to the wind. I truly feel bad for him because if would’ve lowered his ego just a drop he could have been on top of the world now.

  13. Didn’t notice anyone on that list who was a real lover of our president anyway. Everyone there likes to think they’re better than what they are.

  14. I am sure it was a mistake. Please delete that last tweet from john hawkins. His comment is disgusting and it belongs in the dark web. Please Please the Yeshiva World is a website for human beings, that comment belongs in a website catering animals. That comment belongs in the sewer . Yeshiva World is a professional website.
    I am sure it was a slip. Please respect us and delete it.

  15. avraham, I just noticed that nival peh after reading the comments reffering to it. I am shocked. Perhaps YWN didn’t notice it when they posted the story but now that comments reffer to the nival peh I am sure they know about it. I am sorry that we need to ask to have it removed.

  16. Trump was not responsible for the loses. Rather, too much Republican money was spent in Ohio and PA, instead of New Hampshire, New York, Arizona and Nevada. Democrats used illegal and tactics such as mail ballots, early voting and voter suppression (Boro Park) to fix the election in certain states. How else can one explain the results? We have a clueless senile President leading his party which got a brain-damaged man elected Senator from PA, a luffein-cup elected governor of NYS, a crazy woman re-elected Governor in Michigan, governors who allowed riots and looting out of control re-elected in Wisconsin and Minnesota, a man who spent too much time in space elected senator from Arizona, etc.
