    I guess Erik Prince figures he can get elected in Wyoming bc they elected torture architect Dick Cheney & his spawn.

        But I genuinely wonder whether the 11.5% of WY's population that is Mormon would support a Trump loyalist in a primary challenge.

        I actually think I met Erik Prince once but didn't realize it was him, just like I met Dick DeVos last week but didn't realize it was him.

        (In both cases, I met the men in places where I couldn't imagine them showing up, such as a commercial puddle jumper flight boarding line.)

        And fewer voters to convince. MI would be a much bigger mtn to climb. And virtually everyone I know from Holland, where I grew up, is /1

        extremely opposed to his sis...he'd be tainted by association even w/o his own giant baggage. Still doubt he'd win WY, though. Good way /2

        to get free publicity and more airtime (and $$$), though. Grifters gonna grift. Mercenary life apparently isn't as lucrative as it once was.

        My guess is it's just an easy credible primary threat. Plus, it's never a bad thing to own an extra house in WY.

        He kind of wins no matter what - more MAGA publicity, more potential opportunities, more $$, and a house in Wyoming. Not a bad plan.

        I picture him relocating his private army out there to stack the polls like they did in the old west.

        That's like saying of Cheney, Hitler had bad hair. The depths of evil START with the torture. Soooo much nefarious stuff left to uncover.
