He has, but there is no question that he drives away others.

Too bad for them. They'll have to go back to supporting professional career lawyer politicians. I've had a belly full of that bull shit. After the Trump era is over, I'm also done with the corrupt Republican party.

Yeah, make the brother ride in the back of the bus, again.

The sooner the GOP dies, the sooner we can move on.

When making historical comparisons, you can take everything related to President Ford and throw it out the window. He was never elected President in the first place. In fact, he was never elected Vice President, either. He was appointed as Nixon’s VP after Spiro Agnew resigned.

Gerald Ford was a man who had the charisma of a grapefruit, and had no political base of support outside the District of Columbia.

The job is to find the successor. We have to find the Aaron Rodgers to take over for Brett Favre, the Steve Young to take over for the Joe Montana. Heck, it could be the Carl Yaztremski to take over for Ted Williams.

I’ll be shopping for another party at that point.

After the Trump era, people who continue voting for this corrupt Republican party will are like battered wife syndrome. But this is battered voter syndrome. They keep getting lied to and kicked in the teeth repeatedly, yet keep coming back for more abuse. Over and over again.

Here’s the difference between Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis.
****************************************************
Trump is butt hurt and wants to have his ego stroked again. DeSantis just wants to restore Constitutional government and protect Americans.

Ron DeSantis is the future of MAGA.

America has had good success with presidents named Ron.

Ron DeSantis is not part of the plan for 2024. He will not be on the ticket. He’s a distraction being pushed by deep state actors.

There is a much larger game in play. Its not just about the 2024 election. Its about a sea change in our country and the world that is happening as we speak and will continue to play out over the next couple of years. Donald Trump was selected to lead our country into a new system. Nothing can stop what is coming.

You bet. And the same who support this guy were the same who voted for and supported the “Party” ie; The globalist Bush crime family for 8 years. Same people.

Yeah, yeah, deep state, the plan...whatever.

If Trump gets the nomination he’ll lose the general and we get the great reset right up the keester. Plus he’ll endorse a bunch of grifter candidates for the House and Senate; they’ll win their nominations and lose the general like so many before them. The only sea change Trump will bring is that the sea gets bluer.

Some of us like freedom and defeating the left that’s why we’re backing DeSantis.

No writing in Trump is a vote for Trump. I’ll never vote for another Bush (DeSantis).

Ford said that the highlight of his administration was the nomination of ultra-liberal John Paul Stevens in 1975.

This is a different time and a different race. There are a lot of things that can go wrong for Desantis. He can alienate a lot of people if he is seen as part of the Bush/Rove republicans. He is already being connected to that faction. I guess we will see exactly who he is in the coming year.
