Look: It’s no secret that the Resistance has a vested interest in Donald Trump winning the GOP presidential nomination. Especially the members of the Resistance who have gotten very wealthy by Resisting.
I’m talking about people like George Conway, who managed to parlay his bitterness over being rejected for a position in the Trump administration into a highly successful grifting operation known as The Lincoln Project (which he eventually left because people were starting to get concerned that The Lincoln Project was a safe harbor for sexual predators) and lots of appearances on CNN and MSNBC.
Conway needed Donald Trump back in 2015, and he needs Trump more than ever now:
It makes no sense for DeSantis to run this cycle. To beat Trump, DeSantis would have to go hammer and tong in a one-on-one race against him. DeSantis isn't capable of that, it isn't going to be one-on-one, and even if he were and it was, DeSantis would end up alienating a good… https://t.co/5AOPh74c6O

Here’s his full tweet if you want to read it (or if you just need a good laugh):
At least George didn’t resort to calling Ron DeSantis TrumpHitler 2.0 like many of his Resistance colleagues, but still. This is really sad. He could’ve saved himself the character space by just tweeting to Ron DeSantis straight-up begging him not to run in 2024.
And the irony of George Conway talking about Ron DeSantis fleecing donors should not be lost on anyone.
You forgot the main reason DeSantis shouldn't run. He could beat Trump, and then your grift would dry up. https://t.co/IQttJQlCUg

What an absolute bellend.
'Donald Trump is an existential threat to [insert] …
Also, De Santis should not run against Trump.'
Trump was right about each Conway. https://t.co/plsJuEfRAn— Gray Connolly (@GrayConnolly) March 30, 2023
George wanted to work for Trump and had to figure out another way to benefit financially from him without being on the payroll (as far as we know).https://t.co/MOf0OmI0lx

They want Trump because they are only relevant because of Trump.
This is transparent. https://t.co/uhzxQjprwY

They’re not even trying to be clever about it. Just putting it all out there on the table for everyone to see.
They all want Trump.
They all need Trump.
They think they have a better chance with Trump and their careers quite literally depend on it.Ask all the kids whose rich parents bought them DC apartments in 2015 and had to lease them out when the Hillary money well ran dry. pic.twitter.com/3EEqh4HAmW

They have to have it be trump, because without him they’ll become even more irrelevant and this dude ruined his marriage for nothing lmao https://t.co/umtzJ2VOW4

And the worst part of all? George Conway would gladly throw everyone under the bus again for a second chance with Donald Trump:
I don't know what the percentage would be if Trump asked George Conway to serve in his admin in a second term that he'd take that job, but I know it's not zero. https://t.co/EY7SR5mMXh

It’s definitely not zero.
