Trump’s going to have his hands full, with the coming indictments from the criminal, illegal, corrupt “Jan 5 Committee”.

You will be voting for Trump in Nov. ‘24. Get used to the idea. Where else are you going to go?

You're probably right, but tell me, will Trump win the general election in 2024? Will he win PA, Arizona or Nevada?

“Trump is done.”

Good chance that’s true, and the sad thing is that he did it to himself.

Trump needs to work with desantis and maybe secure a leading role in the house or senate which would be beneficial to the cause. Ego is the problem

Not a good thing. DeSantis has been very nice towards Trump. And now Trump is threatening to talk smack about him. He will cost us the 2024. He is doing what the dems wanted him to do. He needs to stay quiet. I doubt biden runs again. Trump needs to work quietly on his own stuff. Still holding huge rallies.

I don’t think Trump can win. We are in a sad state of affairs when someone like Fetterman is elected.

Do not be surprised if the Dems back off now. They fear DeSantis more than Trump based on what happened yesterday.

Allowing Trump to spout off and play spoiler will allow the Dems to win 2024.

People forget the record Desantis had as a congressman and better find out who he is beholding to on the national stage. Never did anything to stop illegal immigration but did the same as Paul Ryan when he introduced and sponsored a bill for Puerto Rico statehood.

Trump worked his butt off for these candidates for us! No one has worked harder.

The irony of all this is that Trump isn’t a Republican. He was basically an independent who hijacked the GOP nomination process to get elected President.

So DeSantis — or someone else — was always going to be “the future of the GOP” anyway. The only question is going to be: Will it even matter, when it comes to advancing a conservative political agenda? My personal opinion is: NO.

Trump is at the Jake LaMotta stage. What could’a been. He need to retire his shtick and mature. Life is timing. He could take lessons from DeSantis who stands on the shoulders of Trump, no doubt. But he’s polished the shtick and without losing the core vision, is appealing to so many more who are tired of Trump’s shtick.

So much of life is timing. It is DeSantis time.

Trump disciples will hate this.....I get it. But you are like religious zealots. There is no reasoning with you.

Trump is clearly shaken by the GOP's collapse last night. He was incapable of fighting back effectively against the vicious attacks of the Dems during his administration.

He has now lost big in 2020 and, after loudly predicting a red tsunami in 2022, received only a pink puddle.

Trump will be seen as a loser.

DeSantis undeniably triumphed last night. He's a winner.

This has to diminish Trump's prospects while propelling those of DeSantis. The electorate will not miss this fact even though Trump tries to counter it with loud braying.

DeSantis won big while blowhard Trump deflated before our eyes.

Polls will soon reflect this, but beware of pollsters who proved themselves to be nothing but conmen last night.

174 minor skirmish wins and 9 devastating battlefield losses.

Fixed.

That doesn't even qualify as a Pyrrhic victory.

The former president also suggested he knew unflattering information about DeSantis that he’d be willing to share if the two were to face off in a primary.

If anyone has any doubts that Trump is a swine, this should put them to rest.

"We need to accept that early and mail voting is here to stay and make it work."

I agree, we need to learn to cheat just as hard, and and maybe even harder then the dimorats..

I got a boatload of dead kin that haven't voted in a long time. We need to get those folks back into politics...
