Unfortunately for the country - and for the world - Trump is not literally under water.
Of course none of them have the guts to admit it.“I could count on one hand the number of Republican senators who want Donald Trump to be our nominee,” said the lawmaker, adding, “I could count it on one finger.”

What a joke that man is. And I use the term "man" loosely.The hosts of “Fox & Friends,” Fox News’s flagship morning news program, on Monday highlighted DeSantis leading Trump in several age demographics in a new Turning Point USA poll as well as the governor’s “tremendous strength” in New Hampshire, Michigan and Florida.
That prompted an angry rebuke from Trump.
“@foxandfriends just really botched my poll numbers, no doubt on purpose,” Trump fumed on Truth Social, his new social media platform. “That show has been terrible — gone to the ‘dark side.’”
No doubt. If Trump doesn't run, it will be because he's afraid he'll lose. If he runs, it will be to soak his supporters for their last dimes and to avoid criminal charges.The first GOP senator who spoke to The Hill confidentially predicted that Fox News’s other main anchors, Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham and Tucker Carlson, will give other potential Republican White House candidates more airtime and attention over the next year.

While Trump himself won’t appear at the World Forum this week, some of his allies will. According to CBS News, National Republican Senatorial Committee Chair Rick Scott (Fla.) is set to attend, as is House Republican Conference Chair Elise Stefanik (N.Y.).
Of course, Trump already has an engagement of his own over the weekend. He’s scheduled to hold a rally in Florence, S.C., on Saturday.
