Trump Rages Over Being Left Out of Conservative Event – By Katherine Fung (Newsweek) / Feb 7, 2023
Former President Donald Trump blasted the Club for Growth on Tuesday after his name was left off the guest list for the conservative anti-tax organization’s annual donor retreat.
“The Club For NO Growth, an assemblage of political misfits, globalists, and losers, fought me incessantly and rather viciously during my presidential run in 2016,” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social. “They said I couldn’t win, I did, and won even bigger in 2020, with millions of more votes than ’16, but the Election was Rigged & Stollen.”
Trump’s remarks come a day after Club for Growth President David McIntosh said nominating Trump to be the GOP candidate in 2024 would diminish the Republican Party’s chances of winning the presidency.
“The party should be open to another candidate,” McIntosh told reporters on Tuesday.
