I'm a little confused about Trumps announcement. Maybe someone can help me.
How is Trump able to announce his candidacy for president without the endorsement by the republican party? If hes representing Republicans, doesnt he have to have their approval? Can anyone just announce their candidacy and just start a campaign this far away from the election?

I don’t know but he’s proven that he’d do that sort of thing anyway. If anyone tried to stop him he’d probably sue them for trying to stop him and drag the whole thing out (and get tons of attention and rally up his fans) - because that’s what he does. It’s a weirdly evil superpower he has that has kept him going all this time when he should’ve been politically irrelevant a long time ago. It’s exesparating and exhausting that he’s still relevant.

If not, I’m pretty sure anyone can announce as an independent there.

He is technically running for the Republican nomination at this point, but that is still part of running for president. Most candidates declare they are running for the presidency, not just the nomination so that is really nothing unusual. If De Santis does run, that nomination might not be the cakewalk Trump wants, though. They play to a similar base and while De Santis is hardly free of controversy, he is certainly in better shape than Trump on that front.

Could Trump run as an independent party?, more or less create his own party?
If so, I fear the USA may approve an "insurrectionist" party leading to their own democratic demise.

He could do that, yes. However, 'Many people are saying' that if he takes that route, he will basically hand the Presidential election to the Democrats.
 
Florida Man ... an un named God???? What has Whopi had to do with this dark humus ...

A late friend of mine who spent winters in Florida stated there are a lot of gated and closed communities there ... causing considerable rejection to the common folk ... demons? You can codify his statements by shifting icons about in statements ... a polity thing so as to not appear extreme and critical!

Imagine the church edifice of Fluoridation ... gassed ...

Which wouldn’t be that surprising either. If he was ticked off with the GOP for not picking him I could see him just going into the fray to
make a mess of the Republican campaign - even if he knew the Dems would win. He’d try to make a mess of the Dems, too, mind you.

I have no idea what he’d do it just seems like something I could see him doing based on years of watching (enduring) how he behaves. He’s a piece of work if there ever was one.

Can you imagine destructive powers in all surroundings as demiurges? Thus the rush to go ... and development of 2 holer's as a sentient icon of an alternative metaphor ... back to Jim Kenny's literature!

Abstract wise sapient nature that mortals take as chit? Fecundity goes on as all that's left ... Runes! It cannot be figured on in a world where knowing is un acceptable ... one must get out of here only in essence ... you can almost see thoughts go ...

This. The problem with Trump continues to be that he is in politics to feed his own narcissism and personal ambition, not for public service. So going independent and killing the GOP by splitting the right-wing vote would be quite in character.
 
Imagine the pole are up like a stockade ... and some folk get trapped intuit ... it goes round evolution drive it ...

If no malevolent drive would or that darker essence ... with the crick in her neck ...
 
If the Democrats start listening to ordinary Americans and concretely act on their concerns from boosting the federal minimum wage to economic and public safety issues, they would be in a much better position to defeat the Republicans. They also need to reform the DNC so their candidate more legitimately represents the rank and file of the party.

Except with a GOP majority in the House, all that is probably going to get blocked or require negotiation. There is no way to pass spending or economic programs without the House onside. Executive orders can only get you so far and the Senate cannot act alone save on things like ratifying nominations of officials. And Biden is a pragmatist, not an ideologue, so he is probably going to focus on what can actually get passed, not on stuff that he knows will get caught up and probably have to be dropped when the GOP inevitably tries the "government shutdown" ploy again.

I’m not big on punitive justice and the prison system as it is. I’m not one of those who says “let them rot in there and throw away the key”. I do think Trump is a giant toddler who needs a little “time-out”, though. And maybe to have his toys, like his private jets and some of his golf resorts, taken away. He’d still live quite well without them, I’m sure.

He is an example of what potentially happens if you don't say no to your kids.

I worry a bit about the consequences of not indicting him or otherwise letting him get away with his crimes.
 
Actually, Joe Biden may be in more legal danger than Trump. The House Republicans want to launch Jan. 6-style investigations into Joe's illegal complicity in Hunter's criminal activities and thus in effect put Biden on trial! Don't underestimate the power of the doctrines of "executive privilege" and "presidential declassification" to get Trump or any president off. Trump is in legal trouble only if they can get him on tax fraud.
