Donald Trump suffered one surprising GOP primary defeat
Donald Trump is gearing up for his 2020 re-election bid.
Part of his campaigns strategy is demonstrating overwhelming force at every turn.
But Donald Trump suffered one surprising GOP primary defeat that no one saw coming.
The New Hampshire primary kicks off with midnight votes in the small towns of Dixville Notch and Harts location.
While just a handful of votes are cast the press focuses on these places because they are the first votes in the first in the nation primary and political reporters are desperate to make a story out of anything.
Donald Trump is only facing token Never-Trump opposition in the primary so the press intended to focus on the Democrat primary.
But in the first votes cast at Dixville Notch, former New York City Michael Bloomberg actually won the GOP primary and President Trump did not receive a single vote.
Bloomberg is not competing in the first four primary states.
Instead, the former New York City mayor boarded the Super Tuesday states with $300 million in TV advertisements betting that Joe Biden would collapse and center-Left Democrats would be desperate for an alternative to Bernie Sanders.
Poster Comment:
This is deceiving since there were four votes for Democrats and only one for Republicans. So how does this foretell what will happen in the regular election?

Denial in not a river in Egypt.
Donnell will be crushed in the debates & election by Bernie.
False god Donnell is a socialist loser.

She was the only centrist who could have pulled in independents and others who are concerned about foreign policy and the dangers posed by vaccines and GMO foods doused in Roundup.

To my knowledge there's never been an incumbent president who lost his party's nomination.

1 Senator and 2 in the House
I guess that they just keep a lower than low profile.

It would have put pressure on Trump and may have given her more media attention. As it is now, she is ignored and Trump is lying his ass off about ending the wars.
