Why not DeSantis? (Vanity)
08/16/2023 | Me, me, me

Posted on 08/16/2023 2:00:51 PM PDT by Az Joe

I could vote for the man, not over Trump or some others.

(But definitely over Christie, Hutchinson, Pence, Haley, Hurd, Scott)

Fill me in...Why is he fading? Personality? Policy positions? Political skills? All the above?

Seems to me like running on “vote for me, my election was stolen.” is not a wise move.

It seems to me if the difference between winning and losing is corrupt elections then *THAT* is what you should have been focusing on.

Corrupt elections gave us Biden. It gave us the nightmare of his policies wrecking the world.

We haven't fixed the corrupt elections. They got Kari Lake with that corrupt elections crap, and unless we *FIX* the corrupt elections, policy doesn't matter.

Fake voters for the corruptocrat don't care about policies. They will "vote" for Biden, because they are simply created en masse by Democrat criminals.

For me the only issue is corrupt elections. There is nothing else, because nothing else matters when your elections are corrupt.

*NOTHING* is more important to the governance of this nation than insuring free and fair elections

That ship has sailed. You’re living in the past. It’s time to regroup and plan on how to win in 2024.

You win it by making sure they have a difficult time stuffing fake votes into the system.

You can never create enough real support that they can't overcome it with fake ballots.

You stop fake ballots and fake voters, or you do not win.

That's Trump's problem, he has horrible judgement when it comes to listening to people. DeSantis is staying far away from Rove it you actually look, and don't believe the obvious smears. Trump's latest fascination? LAURA LOOMER!

An interesting article, but I don’t see anything substantive that Rove is actually working with Trump.

“His base...what is it 8% now? Could he even win in Florida as a Presidential candidate?”

Let me be a little clearer. By “DeSantis’ base,” I was referring to the aforementioned Karl Rove, the Bushes and Paul Ryan.

Ron will never abandon them-— they are his base

Thank you for this list of just some of Trump’s great accomplishments. I wonder if DeSantis disagrees with any of them. I wish DeSantis had supported Trump‘s policies, without running himself, though he did not need to support Trump the person. DeSantis still would’ve been waiting in the wings in case something happened to keep Trump from running. Instead DeSantis probably messed up his political future.

Wise is in the eyes of the beholder. Without fair free honest elections we are a banana republic. That is the issue all Americans need to unite behind.

Trump’s policies are mostly good. I have voted for him 3 times now, and probably will again if he wins the primary. But a lot of his policies are no different than most any other Republican now. Where he loses me, compared to others like DeSantis:

- Trump’s support of the warp speed “vaccines” and “gain of function”
- Trump’s support of gays and gay marriage
- Trump’s support of big government budgets and handouts
- Trump’s support of federal control of education
- Trump’s cozy relationship with the WEF and their agenda

Off the top of my head.

Trump calls for nationwide ‘school choice’ program

Trump joined the pack of Republican presidential hopefuls touting their education policies on the Iowa campaign trail. He said 2024 is the “final battle” on breaking up corruption in Washington, D.C. — and in the U.S. education system.

He promised to take on the federal Department of Education if reelected to the presidency, saying America consistently ranks as one of the highest spenders on education, but ranks low on educational success rates.

“So we spent three to four times more on educating a pupil, and yet we’re at the bottom of the list,” Trump said. “They’re at the top of the list and they spend much less money, so you know the system doesn’t work. So breaking up the Department of Education is a very simple thing to do.”

Trump’s support of big government budgets and handouts
List the handouts.

- Trump’s support of federal control of education
List the controls.

- Trump’s cozy relationship with the WEF and their agenda
He got us out of the Paris Climate Treaty. Nome others.

Trump’s support of the warp speed “vaccines” and “gain of function”
Who had a better plan March, 2020? No Monday Morning Quarterback.

“Why is he fading?”

Easy answer, we thought he was MAGA, but found out he’s another Pence...and so why would he have more support than Pence?
