It very well may be. But there are a lot of grass roots election integrity efforts going on out there. And some actual useful efforts by GOP governments, though not nearly enough. This will tend to reduce the amount of cheating possible. Enough to matter? We shall see.

The military might be used to oppress us.

Sad to say, the national government that most threatens us is own own.

I want massive cutbacks in the 90% range.

Yes, Jeb2.0 should run for 2024...

That way, desantis can kill his future political career now, and we won't have to hear anything about him in 2028

“Four polls taken after the New York indictment show Trump gaining strength, leading DeSantis by an average of nearly 34 points.”

Such polls are meaningless and misleading.

Of course a former US President is better known than a mere governor.

Most Republicans will support Trump, but how about independents and Democrats?

Yes. He’s my second choice. A lot can happen in 18 months.

Out of all the dozens of “departments” set up in DC, only the military and a few others are actually Constitutional.

Try forcing DC to “cut” - permanently - those unConstitutional departments.

Yes.

And others.

If they’re any good.

The fight forward is for independents and Democratic leaners.

Trump & DeSantis will have the backs of almost all here.

I would most like to cut the EPA, which extends way too far beyond constitutional bounds.

Trump may have actually gotten some sympathy vote.

But, it’s “too early”. He’ll probably lose that sympathy in the next 6 months, unless he gets another incident to garner sympathy.

What EverTrumpers don’t understand is (amongst other things) that DeSantis has some disadvantage, yet usually over the last 6 months has had substantial support. Never mind when put up against other candidates with a full field. Mostly we can figure those “other” will go to DeSantis without more choice. Over the next *year*, Ron could garner more appreciation and will be a real threat to Trump for nomination.

“New Poll Shows Trump Blowing Biden Out of the Water With Biggest Lead to Date....”

The official November polling was disappointing.

You would think women didn’t shop for groceries.

You are a level-head.

I will definitely vote Trump is he is the nominee...sorry, but I always vote “R” and will not take my ball home. Right now Trump’s my 2nd choice.

Student loans should not be given out so freely.

Top schools have massive endowments. These schools can afford to have lower tuition.

There’s no real need to issue Parent Plus loans or to waive standard undergraduate limits.

Schools should need to co-sign all new issue money loans.

Initial red flags:

1. Ivy League lawyer turned career politician.
2. Never worked outside government.
3. “Free trade” globalist in Congress.
4. Branch Covidian idiocy in 2020.

Enhancement of these red flags in recent months:

A. Started testing the waters for a presidential bid even before he showed up to work for his second term in office.
B. He has all the wrong friends in politics.
C. All the signs of a managed, manicured loser who checks the political winds before taking a stand on anything.
