Any guesses - will Dubya put his paintbrush down long enough to do the right thing and join the Cheneys?

Not that it will carry very much weight - he seems pretty uniformly shunned these days (or maybe that is just a misunderestimation on my part?)

He may be the only person to convince her not to vote for tsf. I think he may be worth more votes than you think.

They want to move the Texas GOP more center. If they endorse Kamala, they can kiss it good-bye.

Hell, it may already be in the works, with the timing set for maximum impact. That's my scientific, wild-ass guess for the day.

Tfg has had fits over the Bush’s I wouldn’t doubt the whole family is on tfg’s blacklist. I’m sure tfg already has a lot of republicans on his list. Even if they supported him recently. Bush not getting out on the campaign trail would be enough for tfg wanting him jailed.

That's the question. 21% of Republican primary voters AFTER the last competing candidate dropped out, continued to vote against Trump. If those are neocons, as the indication seems to be, that's a big chunk of support Trump needs to carry a lot of marginal red counties and states. In what the media seems to think is still a marginal race, that's gigantic. He can't win losing that much support.
