My values, not a particular individual, is my priority. I think that DeSantis gives us a better chance. Plus, he is more socially conservative than Trump.

[I WON’T vote for anyone other than Trump.}

I totally agree with you. I WON’T accept anything else but the return of our legitimate POTUs PDJT to the White House where he should be right now!

Plus, I’m tired of having DeSantis being forced down my throat. He seems far too much in favor with GOPe factions and is even touted by a sizable array of MSM entities. This piques my suspicions about his allegiances and independence!

I’ve actually recall a mention a while back that DeSantis has at least some contact with Jeb. We definitely don’t need any further Bush influence working against what’s best for our country/world.

Let’s all unite behind getting President Trump back in the Oval Office in 2024.

Maybe, a little more time might allay my deep concerns regarding DeSantis’ character.

You RINOS and Never TRUMPERS go by the same old playbook year after year:

Get a competitive race going against the conservative frontrunner, and another, then another until the field is so diluted only a weak candidate wins.

IMHO, TRUMP will be back sooner than later.

Does this group have liberal backers? Liberal buzz words are used here. Odd.

Oak, your analysis is succinct and spot on.

Another consideration:

One reason Trump did well in 16 is that he was not Hillary. Many voters went for Trump because he was NOT Hillary.

The reverse happened in 20, many voters (I know some) just couldn't pull the lever for Trump. Unfortunately, it was personal, they hated his inability to act presidential. (I do not defend the reasoning, I merely report it. I voted for Trump.)

In 24, we can expect RINOs to run against Trump, they see this as their big chance. (Thinking Willard, Cheney, Kasich, Jeb and etc as possibles.) I also suspect they might not be above a third party megaloss, just to feel important.

DeSantis will have greater appeal to disaffected GOPers and Indies.

He was the victim of fraud in 2020, but he can't get over it.

It was ONLY the Presidency, not anything really big...he should get over it. It's not like it will happen again or anything...

> without the sharp elbows and abrasive language.

This is why he won. He fought back.

The one nagging feeling I have about Trump is that he hires RINO backstabbers.

Any reason Desantis couldn’t be President in 2028 and 2032?

It’s not just him. It’s a lot of commenters in the past days pretending RDS is running. Pretending the press will be nice to him as they are now. Relatively. Pretending there won’t be a total meltdown framing of past wrongdoings, pee pee tapes, enemy collusion, assaults made up against him. So naive. So ignorant

Trump shined the light on all the cockroaches, left and right.

Folks he thought supported him, sold him out so they could stay in the game Congress plays every election. They are not there to make life better for Americans like Trump was trying to do, they were there to make money for themselves on our tax dollars.

The blatant insider trading would have landed any of us in jail, fined, and ruined, but just another day at the office for these pukes.

As much as I like DeSantis, we need him leading Florida and the rest of the governors. Trump needs to take back control and finish exposing the criminals that call themselves Congresscritters.

We wanted Trump to roll Washington.

Instead he got rolled by Washington.

May be factual, may be cruel.

Desantis is NOT running. He has stated repeatedly that he will not run against President Trump. And, reposting this meaningless piece will not alter this fact. No matter how desperate the Never Trumpers are to wish it so.

An excellent summary. The only thing you left out was Trump’s age. Although seemingly mentally and physically fit, that could change, and voters might not want to chance another very old president. And you can count on Dems making his age an issue; hypocrisy never bothers them.

He will not win in 2024 if he does win the primary. This is a R0mney-type maneuver that will result in a Democrat win. If the election had been fair, DT would be in office right now. He would then have been able to work to put Governor Ron in the White House and it would have been buddy-buddy, back-scratching time.

Leave it to the GOP to undermine and sabotage the best thing that has happened to their party since the 1980s.

Someone who lost (either honestly or by being cheated) needs to adjust to the reality of the situation. We need a Trump 2.0. But I wonder if Trump can make that adjustment.

Oh, and do I think Trump was cheated in 2020? See my tag line.
