Jeb Bush, Mitt Romney and John Kerry agree with you.

DeSantis 2024.

Some Freepers would seemingly have us believe that Trump has finished draining the swamp that stole the 2020 elections, and that it’s time for Trump to go home even though not one the crooks has yet gone to jail.

But street fighter Trump has not finished the very difficult job of restoring the constitutionally limited power federal government and patriots are encouraged to give him another term in office to try finish the job.

And while I respect DeSantis’s leadership, I don’t know if he’s really up to fighting the swamp like Trump has.

Insights welcome.

The “need” was that Ron Sanctimonious was not respectful to Trump.

All of us conservatives know that sometimes you have to smile when you don’t want to, kiss when you don’t have to, and work the shaft and take a pounding deep for the greater good.

Bend over and dance for the one who made ya, Ron. It ain’t rocket science.

Trump / Lake 2024!

Trump had a huge rally in Miami Dade right before election day. Florida has always been Trump country. Fact: no one wins the WH without the millions of MAGA/America First voters?

Except DeSantis doesn't "have to" do any of that, and won't. He'd be doing us a service by sending Trump into retirement so Trump doesn't get us all crushed in 2024.

Joe Biden won the White House without millions of MAGA voters.

I honestly don't believe I've seen literally any Freepers claim that. His failure to drain the swamp is actually one of the most common criticisms of his term.

To all those “Republicans” crowing about how it has to be DeSantis, and not President Trump in 2024, just know this:

- Joe Scarborough

- Ben Shapiro

- Chris Christie

- Jonah Goldberg

and every Bushie agrees.

I wonder why ..— Sebastian Gorka DrG (@SebGorka) November 10, 2022

The election results would not have been as high as they were if not for the HUGE rallies that Donald Trump personally held for weeks on end for months prior to the vote. What is going on with him and DeSantis now has nothing to do with the already over election. Trump did his best to get out the vote and now political others want to continue to undercut him and he is not going to be subtle in his reaction. DeSantis should continue to keep Fla a red state and Trump will continue to work at MAGA. He is poking DeSantis for a reason and has the attention of the political would be king makers.

I really think you need less FAUXNews, and Sean Hannity, and more Emerald Robinson ( https://emeralddb3.substack.com/ ) see this article ( What Happened To Hannity? ) and this article ( The Treachery of VP Mike Pence Explained ).

Where did you hear she won the governorship?

They said here

https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4108119/posts

that they would not be done counting by Friday, that it would go into the weekend.

Is it possible you’ve never been to a Trump Rally?
If you had, I don’t see how you could blithely say…’It was all about him’

My goodness, do you think he really relishes traveling to one, two, three rallies even, in one or two weeks…..and stand talking for 2 hours!!!!!!

The part he does relish is our smiling faces…..our happy voices…..our hope and respect because we know he represents us….We The People!!!
And we know he loves AMERICA!!!
Hundreds of thousands don’t take off work….and drive long distances because they want to hear a ‘politician’….

We know the media and the real ‘politicians hold us in contempt and hatred.
We know Trump LOVES….TRULY LOVES us!

I am thankful to live in the ‘time of Trump’

Didn't DeSantis campaign for a stridently anti-Trump Republican candidate in Colorado who lost by nine percentage points? Maybe that was what angered Trump.

Trump considered in 2016, that he might win against Hillary Clinton, but he did not expect to win.

He was not prepared to establish a Trump Administration as Chief Executive. He made several poor choices in people, and rarely chose well.

His policies re the U.S. border and other issues, were good.

His ego shooting derogatory tweets from the hip, self-inflicting wounds via some of his speaking and inexplicable writing, plus other un-forced errors, were efficient at losing votes in 2020 . . . and 2022.

Trump could still comport himself toward higher self-discipline and learn to write well. For example, in regard to explaining how he believes his view is an advantage and therefore the right thing to do - - - instead of simply and all-too-quickly resorting to smash-face tweeting in flashes of anger and frustration - because he won’t sit down and spend the time to work thru a better argument on paper.

A Republican has to have a strong administration in depth, plus a remarkable and loyal staff, plus an ability to write well.

Trump needs very soon, to work toward that, in addition to establishing an operation to expose the lack of voting integrity throughout every level of the mechanisms, both human and machine. So that there is encylopedic and thorough information that supports the all-too-simplistic claims such as “they cheated.” PROVE IT.

Trump could earn his way back into the lead, by being a knowledgeable statesman in terms of his conduct - plus - becoming a master of information regarding the lack of voting processes’ integrity.

BS on blaming Trump. MSM is already busy attacking Trump. If anything, I blame kids growing up with the idea they can kill unborn humans if they want. Now Demonicrats are trying to legalize infanticide.
I’m starting to think Trump loves this country so much, he is trying to push DeSantis to run in 2024. And another thing, I read this morning, it is turning into a Red Wave:

Fetterman was because of early voting that started on Sept 19 over a month before the debate, OZ not being a likeable candidate and the fact he did not campaign most of the summer. Why?

Warnock and Walker both have serious family related problems with abuse and questionable financial dealing. Warnock is a smooth talker and did not run up the race card like Abrams. He touted his work with Tuberville in getting funding for peanut farmers etc. Walker had never run for office before and with his liabilities it is a tossup. Don’t feel good about the runoff as the Republican Party in Georgia is still split and disorganized from the carnage of the 2020 election.

coons is running in a Democrat Party State with them in firm control of all levers of power.

Mail-in voting, no voter id requirements and early voting have doomed Republicans in many states.
