To my way of thinking, Hurd's attacks expose the soft underbelly of Trump's faux campaign to become president again in 2024. More than that office, Donald Trump wants to stay out of prison and is too damn cheap to pay his own legal bills. That might not matter to the cult (aka Trump Republicans), but it sure as hell does to wealthy donors who don't want to foot the bill for Trump's legal woes.

Former Congressman Will Hurd on Friday received a very vocal reminder of former President Donald Trump's stranglehold on the Republican Party.
Hurd, who is running for the GOP presidential nomination, did something few of his fellow challengers would do in going after the former president by name at the Iowa Republican Party's Lincoln Day Dinner, a major fundraiser and cattle call for candidates.
"Donald Trump is not running for president to represent people that voted for him in 2016 and 2020," Hurd said. "Donald Trump is running to stay out of prison."
