Trump claims he 'purposely' lost D.C. GOP primary contest to Nikki Haley

Donald Trump suffered his first loss in the GOP 2024 primary on Sunday, and he didn't take it very well.

Trump, who lost handily to his competition Nikki Haley according to reports, saw his own fans and campaign melt down after the beating. The Trump team claimed Haley won because D.C. is the home of the entrenched "swamp."

Trump himself chose to weigh in later, saying on his own social media site, Truth Social, that he "purposely stayed away from the D.C. Vote because it is the 'Swamp,' with very few delegates, and no upside."...

'That's how he does business': Trump biographer warns those who may bail ex-president out

The struggle for Donald Trump to come up with the whopping sum to satisfy a bond or pay up front with cash is nothing compared to if he actually loses his appeal.

Donald Trump is already setting up a potential 2024 loss to be met with "bedlam" and misinformation about voter fraud, and we will fall into his trap if we don't learn from 2016 and 2020, a former federal prosecutor said Wednesday.

Joyce Vance, a frequent mainstay on MSNBC as a legal analyst, wrote in her Substack that Trump "always says the quiet part out loud." In this instance, she said, he has been telling us how he will handle a loss since before the 2016 election.

"It was clear by October 2016 that Donald Trump would not accept the outcome of an election if he lost. And let’s be precise: Trump’s position was that if he won, as he did, everything was fine.
