Former President Donald Trump continues to enjoy widespread support from Republican voters and near-unwavering loyalty from conservative elected officials—even the ones who decried him during his 2016 campaign.

Republican Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina said in 2016 that if the GOP nominated Trump, it would get "destroyed" and "deserve it," but was making calls on Trump's behalf to swing the state of Georgia in the former President's favor only four years later. Republican Senator Ted Cruz of Texas called Trump a "pathological liar" and a "narcissist" only to become one of his most loyal supporters. Former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley vocally condemned Trump on the 2016 campaign trail for not disavowing white supremacists, but agreed to serve in his administration the very next year.

But there's still a small faction of Republicans willing to condemn the former President, and some of them are buying ads to highlight the hypocrisy of some of his most fervent supporters.

The Republican Accountability Project recently released an ad accusing some of Trump's most notable allies of "partisan derangement syndrome," a play on the "Trump derangement syndrome" diagnosis Trump's supporters often use to dismiss his critics.

Watch below.

The ad, which is just over a minute, highlights comments made by Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, and Trump's ex-Attorney General Bill Barr, with each man highlighting Trump's culpability in the deadly failed insurrection against the U.S. Capitol, as well as his delusional belief the 2020 election was "stolen" from him.

It then shows footage of McConnell, Christie, and Barr all saying they'd be willing to vote for Trump again, should he run for the presidency in 2024.

An actor featured in the commercial, as she takes her microphone off, says at the end:

"Didn't Bill Barr just say verbatim that [Trump]'s out of touch with reality? And then they want to give him the nuclear codes? Like, what the f**k?"

Social media users joined the Republican Accountability Project in calling them out.






Some found the ad highly effective.



Trump has yet to confirm his 2024 candidacy, but has heavily hinted at his intentions to run.

CNN Just Used A Hilarious Poll To Show Just How Unpopular Trump's Ballroom Is—And We're Cackling

After President Donald Trump claimed that his new White House ballroom is "very popular" with the American public, CNN shared a hilariously shady poll that gets to the truth of the matter.

Last year, Trump ordered the demolition of the entire East Wing to make way for a 90,000 square-foot ballroom that will dwarf the size of the White House itself, sparking alarm from historical preservationists and the public alike.

Woman In Labor Times How Long Her Husband Takes To Poop To See If She Can Push Their Baby Out Faster In Hilarious Viral Video

It's well-known across the internet that it takes forever for men to use the restroom. For dads especially, in the time it takes them to poop, when they return to the house, their kids will have aged seven years, and their baby will have learned to walk.

These are jokes, of course, but it's an internet consensus that men spend a really long time on the porcelain throne.

In early 2024, 49-year-old Antonia Eastwood married Ashley Monk after about five months of dating. During the ceremony, Antonia tripped while walking down the aisle.

Antonia and Ashley were both suspicious that she did not trip accidentally and that Ashley's sister, Gemma, actually tripped her. Gemma and Antonia were not close, and the couple also believed that Gemma might be jealous that they were marrying after five months, though she'd been with her childhood sweetheart for 20 years without tying the knot.
